My Five Minutes

Well it looks like USC, Auburn and Oklahoma are all going to finish undefeated, along with Utah. And it looks like the Tigers are going to leapfrog the Sooners for number 2 once the season is over. This would bring Auburn full circle, because I'm sure that they would want nothing more than to avenge... Sign in to see full entry.

Happy Valley is not to happy these days. Just like when I went up there last year to watch Penn State play Indiana, the natives are restless and want JoePa gone. I think that the game has passed him by, also. But Penn State has already made their decision. He is signed through 2007. For all that he... Sign in to see full entry.

Now that the Red Sox have won their World Series it's time to take a look at the MLB playoff format. About a month ago, I wrote a blog asking why we need 162 regular season games. After this years post season, I'm asking that question again. Here's why. There are six divisions in MLB. After 162... Sign in to see full entry.

After watching Mike Mussina and Jeff Kent go down in the baseball playoffs again, I am beginning to think that it is time to put them in the bridesmaid's hall of fame. You know, a collection of very good players who never played for championship teams. I like to nominate players while they are still... Sign in to see full entry.

For the first time since 1978, the universities of Florida, Miami and Florida St. all lost a football game on the same Saturday. The last time that happened, I was playing halfback for the 80 pound Marlboro Mustangs. Why did this all of a sudden happen now? Come on. What else? Karma. With Tuesday's...

Well, Sawx fan, your boys are spitting in my face by winning the first two games of the series despite eight errors.

I will go on record as saying that I think the Cards will win, because they field better and are more well-rounded on offense than the Sawx. And Boston will have... Sign in to see full entry.

Is this Yankee-Red Sox series ever going to end? Well it has to tonight, thank God. Red Sox fan good luck. You have the better team so be optimistic. This is your chance to kick big brother's ass. Even if you don't, be proud of your team. They were down and out just three days ago and didn't throw... Sign in to see full entry.

Well, the Red Sox won't go away quietly, now will they? After being pummeled 19-8 and trailing 3-0 against the hated Yankees, the Sawx decide to win an extra inning game to prolong the agony. I knew that it was over as soon as David Ortiz stepped to the plate. He's money in the bank. As I've said... Sign in to see full entry.
