5/27/06: Phillies, Nova recruiting, other thoughts
Phillies lost another one to the Brewers last night. After starting the month off so well it's pretty much back to the same old shit. They're going to be far behind the Mets and Braves if they keep this up, and hopefully the axe will finally fall on ol' Cholly. Meanwhile, Jim Leyland has the Tigers in first place, but the Phillies get stuck with that fucking idiot Cholly instead of him. ::Sigh::
Reports coming out of Kansas City say that if the Royals don't get the Braves assistant GM, then they're going to talk to Ed Wade of all people. The Royals ownership must want to run off the rest of their fanbase...
Big win on the recruiting trail for Nova this week as they got a committment from Scottie Reynolds, a 4-star guard that had originally committed to Oklahoma, but got out of his committment once Kelvin Sampson left. Nova beat out Michigan for Reynolds, who could possibly start at PG next year if Kyle Lowry stays in the draft. Also, 4-star guard Jeff Jones from nearby Drexel Hill, PA backed out of his committment to Maryland for the class of 2007 recruits, and Nova is thought to be a player in that race. Personally, I think Corey Stokes (highly touted NYC recruit, has size to play the 3 along with the 2) is a more important get than Jones is, but we'll see.
Searching for a place to live at Nova next year is quite the chore. I've been using my free time on weekends to head over to the area looking for apartments or condos that could be considered cheap housing, which is pretty much an oxymoron on the Main Line. I think I found something decent though in a building called Radnor House Condos, which is basically housing for law students, other grad students, and professionals. Looks pretty nice, we'll see what happens.
