    Giambi

    He could be back next week: I'm not sure exactly what he'll bring, but I guess it can't hurt, huh?

    Greatest. Sports. Weekend. Ever.

    (For the football and college basketball offseason, that is.) How can you top this: 1. Michael Vick is indicted by the feds for dogfighting. 2. The FBI reveals that a veteran NBA referee with a gambling problem has been under the thumb of the mob. 3. The Yankees show some frigging signs of...

    Choke!

    Anybody else watching the British Open? I hadn't been following the tournament too closely (it starts wicked early out here, and I have tons of grading to do), but I've tuned in this morning just in time to watch the wheels fall off the Garcia bus once again. :party: Am I the only one reveling...

    John Lovitz beats the crap out of Andy Dick!

    Too bad there's no YouTube video of this one: Just take a look at this face and tell me he didn't deserve it:

    Early to bed, early to rise ...

    My goodness. I'm all the way out here on the left coast, three hours behind most of you time zone-wise, and from what I can see I had the first post of the morning today. Shows what getting up well before dawn's proverbial ass-crack to, er, avoid doing work can lead to. :sleep:

    Sharpley to start?

    Dennis Dodd says so: BGS thinks it's plausible; HLS says it's bunk. Plus more from The Fan House. I for one have tons of trouble believing that our game plan for next season hinged on getting A. Benn. Your thoughts?

    Where will the Mamba end up?

    Kobe seems to have reiterated his request to be traded. He has a no-trade clause, but I read that he proposed three teams he'd be willing to go to, and the Bulls and Knicks were two of them. I've also seen Washington mentioned in some rumors. Where do you think he'll end up playing next season?

    Mandel on Bush

    Old Stewrat actually does a decent job here, and even manages to talk about ND without taking a shot at us: http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2007/writers/stewart_mandel/05/29/cfb.mailbag/index.html. IMO, he deserves some credit for being unwilling to let this thing die ...

    My few days away

    Well, my little family is off for a trip to see my grandpa (who's not doing very well) and our folks. I'll be pretty much computerless for the next few days, so do try to hold down the fort for me. The primary reason I mention this is that we could use some prayers for our little guy (eleven...

    Here come the Yankees!

    No, I'm not talking about the Clemens signing, though it certainly won't hurt. (I think I just threw up in my mouth.) I mean that all you cocky punks who thought we were done conveniently forgot to take into account the fact that ALL OUR PITCHERS WERE INJURED. Well, they're not injured any more...
