Posted Friday September 25, 2009, About: Thursday Night Update - Ole Miss Falls
Cal will win and prove it belongs in the elite status. Ole Miss never deserved a top 10 ranking, but got credit for being in the SEC.

Face it sportswriters the SEC is Fla and Alabama, and the rest are no better than the also-rans in other conferences.

All the more reason I prefer college football (and especially college basketball) over the pros nowadays.

Giants-Dodgers. Best sports rivalry ever.
Posted Monday August 10, 2009, About: NL West Showdown
The Giants pitching will carry them to the playoffs. The best scenario would be for them to meet the Dodgers and beat up on the hated boys in blue.

Guess you weren't alive during the 80's. A friend of mine (who was a die-hard Yankee fan) used to joke back then:
"What do the Yankees have in common with Michael Jackson?"
Answer: "They both wear a glove on one hand for no apparent reason."
Posted Monday July 13, 2009, About: Top Ten Quarterbacks of All Time-Quick overview
Johnny U. is 6th, but Bart Starr is 2nd. Roger Staubach didn't even make the list. Well you know what they say about opinions...everyone's got one.

Lincecum and Pujols. I was going to say sarcastically, "way to go out on a limb" but really there is not even anyone else that can be debated for NL MVP and Cy Young.

I agree, they may as well just hit super balls off a batting tee.
Posted Wednesday July 01, 2009, About: What did you watch: The NBA Draft or Michael Jackson?
You sure are verbose. I'll always remember Michael Jackson the (probable) pedophile.

You must be joking.
Posted Tuesday June 30, 2009, About: Baseball's Greatest - volume VIII: Right Field
The only thing Reggie did better than Tony Gwynn was hit for power. Gwynn was a gold glover, Reggie was a liability in right field.
Posted Tuesday June 30, 2009, About: Baseball's Greatest - volume VIII: Right Field
But for the fact that almost no one living remembers seeing Mel Ott, he would be in the top 4. His stats are more impressive than Frank Robinson.
Posted Monday June 22, 2009, About: An All-Time Series(Top Ten Quarterbacks of All-Time) #5
Johnny U at 6 and Slingin Sam at 5. I can only think of one QB I'd rank higher (and I'm pretty sure he'll be your #1).
Posted Monday June 22, 2009, About: Baseball's Greatest - Volume VII: Center Field
This has to be the easiest list to agree with. I don't see how anyone can argue against any of these four players. At best you could debate whether Cobb should be ahead of Mays (I agree Mays belongs at the top by the way).
Posted Thursday June 18, 2009, About: An All-Time Series(Top Ten Quarterbacks of All-Time) #7
Only seventh? I expect a few to be higher than Elway, but am shocked he's not in the top 4.
Posted Tuesday June 16, 2009, About: Baseball's Greatest - Volume VI: Left Field
How can you leave Barry Bonds off the list? He is retired (against his will) and even without the steroid years he's a better choice than Ricky Henderson.
Posted Tuesday June 09, 2009, About: Baseball's Greatest - Volume V Third Basemen
I realize that he is not very well known but more credit really should be given to George Kell. Look at his numbers.
Posted Tuesday June 02, 2009, About: Baseball's Greatest - Vol III 2B
although I really dislike the guy, you have to give some consideration to Pete Rose. 2nd base was his original position.
Posted Tuesday June 02, 2009, About: Greatest Baseball Players - Vol IV Shortstops
I am amazed a blogger with a Yankee avatar left out Phil Rizzuto, or even Bucky Freakin Dent.
Posted Tuesday June 02, 2009, About: Greatest Baseball Players - Vol IV Shortstops
Wagner and Ernie Banks, no one can seriously debate. However I can't see Ozzie ahead of Ripken. Ozzie was the best glove in the bunch but Ripken's bat makes him so much more valuable. The same can probably be said for Barry Larkin for that matter.
Davey Concepcion anyone?
