This is actually an interesting system he has going. Hire one guy to coach most of the regular season, then take over for the playoffs. Obviously, he knows he's better in short bursts than for an entire season.

Jays blow a 3-0 first-inning lead, but win 5-3 in 10 innings. Decent start to the season.

No, Zell is buying Tribune Co., and the Cubs will be sold to someone else after the season.

Figures, he only homers when the Yankees already have the lead.

It hasn't been such a hell of a game, but the Jays and Tigers are doing the exact same thing.

Wow, did Contreras ever get pounded. Eight runs on eight hits and a walk in one inning of work.

Pontiac - 2 Atlantic City - 3 Toronto - 2 New York City - 1 Houston - 1 Seattle - 10 Chicago - 2 Anaheim - 5

Stop the season, Royce Clayton is batting 1.000.

That's pretty weak.

Unfortunately, it was pretty obvious by the end of the first hour that the Guidos were going to be eliminated. There was no way they were going to make up half an hour on the other two teams on their bus, especially when the Intersection forced them to team up with a team that knew they only had to stay with the Guidos to not be eliminated. Poor planning on the producers' part.

Morgan Pressel became the first teenager ever to win a major, winning the Kraft Nabisco Championship after a terrible meltdown by Suzann Pettersen, who coughed up a four-shot lead with four to play.

Finally? They did this last year.

Watching The Masters in HD is going to be like watching a work of art come to life.

I may have a problem meeting the minimum innings requirement this week with Garcia on the DL, and no way to pick anyone up before Tuesday since everyone is on waivers.

The regular season ends a week from today, and the playoffs start a week from Wednesday. So, who makes the playoffs out of the East? Here's the remaining schedule for the contenders: Tampa Bay (90 pts): Car, Fla, @Atl NY Rangers (89 pts): Tor, @NYI, Mtl, @Pit Montreal (88 pts): Bos, @NYR, @Tor Toronto (87 pts): @NYR, Phi, @NYI, Mtl Carolina (84 pts): @Fla, @TB, Atl, Fla NY Islanders (84 pts): NYR, Tor, @Phi, @NJ I have Tampa Bay, Toronto, and Montreal making the playoffs, in that order. The Rangers will lose a tiebreaker with Montreal for the last spot.

The Leafs-Rangers game tomorrow night could very well determine who'll make the playoffs and who won't.

That was a horrible goal they gave up to Crosby. How do you leave the league's top scorer uncovered at the side of the net at all, let alone give him time to kick the puck to his stick in that position? It's looking like a four-team race for the last three spots in the East now. The Islanders are done without DiPietro. Ottawa just destroyed them.

Nieve got sent down? You're joking. I had Nieve pegged as the fifth starter late in the week.

This is the first program I'm watching on my new HD PVR. It is AWESOME.

Relive the Megapowers vs. Megabucks angle, right here. These are all VERY well done, almost professionally so: Part 1: - Promo by DiBiase claiming he will buy the WWF title - Interview with Jack Tunney on DiBiase's offer - Promo by Hogan rejecting the offer - Promo by DiBiase claiming he'll get the title another way Part 2: - Andre's attack on Hogan following Hogan/Bundy on SNME in January 1988, where the whole face locker room can't get Andre off Hogan - DiBiase promo introducing Andre as the man who'll deliver him Hogan's title - Hogan/Andre contract signing for The Main Event - Hogan training vignette - Hogan's entrance on The Main Event Part 3: - WWF Champion Hulk Hogan vs. Andre the Giant, The Main Event, February 1988 (clipped) - Post-match promo with DiBiase and Andre - Announcement by Jack Tunney declaring the WWF title vacant and announcing the title tournament at WrestleMania IV Part 4: - Randy Savage vs. Ted Dibiase, Saturday Night's Main Event, March 1988 (joined in progress) - Hulk Hogan vs. Andre the Giant, WrestleMania IV, WWF title tournament - second round Part 5: - Hogan/Andre (continued) - Randy Savage vs. Ted Dibiase, WrestleMania IV, WWF title tournament - final (joined in progress) Part 6: - Megapowers vs. Megabucks, Summerslam 88 (clipped) Watch the Savage promo introducing Hogan as his partner that I posted earlier, and it's pretty much complete.

I think they'll still be way ahead of the Royals, but I just can't see this team breaking .500 in this division with the roster they currently have. 75-80 wins sounds about right.

Carl Pavano is the Yankees' opening day starter. Go nuts, people. http://sports.espn.go.com/mlb/spring2007/n...tory?id=2818854

No. I'll grant that he's a great goalie, but he's not the best ever. The Leafs' OT loss last night officially eliminated the Bruins from the playoff race.

I'm not knocking the "wisdom of crowds" approach. I'm knocking this particular approach. The selection bias would be ridiculously large.

That's the kind of thing that gets you the Selke, really.
