Any player who's been teammates with Oritz will say he's a great clubhouse leader, and makes the atmosphere at the game much more relaxed. Chemistry is crucial in baseball. If players aren't on the same page, than Nerd Baseball won't work. If my memory is correct. David Ortiz was a last minute signing, and wasn't even expected to play that much. Bill Mueller had a history of injuries, and was a mediocre hitter. Where these signings really brilliant, or just lucky. Neither one of the two had shown the could stay healthy, and had never put up numbers like they did last year.

The upcoming 60 minutes interview with LT got me thinking. Why didn't Mr. Discipline lay the hammer down on LT? He had to have known he was a major cokehead. Yet, Parcells didn't take any action. I believe it was the league itself that finally suspened Taylor. If the 5th string receiver would of done the same things Taylor did, Parcells would of booted him off the team so fast.

Fuck. Put an 8 in the loss column.

Sees Ashcroft is from Missouri. Fucking officials cost the Chiefs that game against the evil Bengals. Just to be on the safe side. I still can't believe they called that kick by Viniteri good, it was clearly wide right.

Iraqi citizen held a protest denouncing the terrorists attacks on their country. Relatives of people killed in these attacks where present. Let's hope the visit is not only moral booster for the troops, but the Iraqi people has well.

I wonder if Caine will use his strong accent he has, or if it will be hidden for a more traditional accent.

For a 37 year old who has had injuries in the past getting a contract that increases every season, I'd say it's alot.

So my thread isn't good enough? *Runs away crying* All kidding aside. How much fan support does Navy bring to the game? I like too see the Academies play in bowls, but UCONN and Northern Illinois are more deserving. UConn might be the choice because it's more likely they'd have more people who either graduated or are from Conneticut living in Texas or Florida.

So Steinbrenner is raked through the coals for overspending on players, but when the the Red Sox do the same thing it's ok?

you don't have to worry. Best team of all time may of been '83 Nebraska. They averaged 52 points a game, and steamrolled through the regular season.

A big oil company supplied the fuel for Air Force One too fly to Iraq. An evil pharmasutical (sp) company supplied medicine in case someone became ill.

Shhh...John Ashcroft's monitoring TSM.

A catfight would be even better.

I'd prefer to wait until OU wins the National Championship before comparing them with the best teams of all time. At this point they are similar to the '96 Florida team. Better on defense, but the run and gun offense is similar, and Stoops is a protege of Spurrier. The Big 10 won't like the Music City Bowl offering Wisconsin a spot, before everything pans out.

Ohio St. better be in a BCS bowl or the Gophers might end up in Detroit.

Beane was one of the top high school prospects, he had a cup of coffee in the bigs but never lived up to his potential.

One of his brothers already said this was motivated by racism.

Who do you guys like for the Heisman? My pick is Jason White. 40 TD's 6 int is too impressive to pass up. Fitzgerald, Leinhart, Perry, and Rivers round out Top 5.

They need to bring in the swing voters. None of the canidates look capable of doing so.

It was on the ticker has breaking news. For a second it would of been nice if they would of stopped kissing the NFL's ass, and passed the news along.

For some reason? Francona managed him for four years in Philadelphia, and Schilling really likes him. So Schilling likes the guy? That's not a reason to hire Francona. This is the same tired old boys network recycling run amok in sports.

I read that the Sun Bowl will take whoever the Alamo doesn't between Michigan St. and Minnesota. Wisconsin would than end up in the Music City Bowl.

What have the Democrats done reguarding these issues? Besides saying everthing the Republican's propose is horrible. Agree or disagree, the Republican party is at least offering solutions for these issues. Instead of saying crying about Tax Cuts for the Rich, and the Medicare legislation benefiting the evil pharmasutical (sp) companies. Actually tell the public planes to fix these problems.
