  1. i did not get to pay close attention to team news this past week but how was Gary Johnson eligible to play in the 1st half after being ejected for targeting in the 1st half last week?
  2. Really impressed with how well schooled those Hawaii kids are in all aspects of the game. =Two earned runs in the 5 games of the tournament. That kid that pitched today threw hard enough but his command was superb. =Every at bat their kids competed. When most LLWS teams have one of their 4 foot 10, 87 pound kids at the plate you can pretty well assume they are overmatched and a strikeout will come quickly. Hawaii did not donate a single at bat all day today. Every kid that went to the plate had aggressive swings. =Tremendous defense for the entire tournament. Routine plays really were routine. Tough plays were made to look a lot easier than they were =They knew they were good but were not arrogant about it. It is easy to enjoy what you are doing when you are really good at it but they played the game with smiles on their faces even during tight moments/games Congrats on a well earned title!!
  3. "Steven “Steveyj” Javaruski, one of the gamers, told the Los Angeles Times that the shooter was a competitor in the tournament who lost. Javaruski said he saw the shooter kill two or three people before shooting himself."
  4. Any news on when season 3 of Last Kingdom will be released?
  5. If Wilson wants to stick with a school that was sold to him by a lying ass, wife beating assistant coach and a head coach with a habit of covering up anti-social, criminal behavior at every school he works at, then he can live with his shitty choice.
  6. Yes what the Knights accomplished this year was unprecedented, but they must have a really empty feeling right now.
  7. There is no reason a pitcher ever needs to throw a pitch in the strike zone to Odor. Absolutely no plate discipline.3 breaking balls in the dirt and he strikes out. I would much rather see IKF at the plate in a big situation.
  8. I like the idea of a relentless, puck possession plan of attack. It will be interesting to see what direction they go on assistant coaches.
  9. Bump - can't let this thread fall off the 1st page
  10. man Claudio has just been bad this year
  11. If the price to bring in Earl Thomas is in fact a 2 and a 4 then I can definitely see a trade down to grab extra picks coming.
  12. Clearly they are absolutely pumped to be there
  13. Always gets a little dusty when they come out of communications black out no matter how many times I have seen it
  14. The Last Stand of the Tin Can Sailors - James D. Hornfischer John Adams - David McCullough
  15. I wonder who the sources are for the scenes inside the Paterno house. It would not seem that any of the members of that inner circle would be motivated to give a factual account that makes their husband/dad/friend/client come across as a callous monster.

    Pete Rose

    I have always wondered what Ray Fosse thinks of Pete Rose. I am sure he says the right things publicly but he has reason to have real life hatred for that guy.
  18. For years the talk was the land Texas Stadium stood on was super valuable for all types of development. Since the stadium was torn down absolutely nothing has gone in on that property.
  19. The team used to stay at the Reunion Hyatt the night before the ousux game. They left a copy of the Wall Street Journal outside the rooms. Plenty of players were pissed when they could not find the sports section.
  20. Is Hudson expected to be ready for the start of the season?
  21. What is your Champion's dinner the following year?
  22. Westley/the Man in Black James Tiberius Kirk
  23. The only thing that happens at the end of the month is we go from being pretty sure we are really bad to being absolutely certain we are really bad
  24. My boys are 20 and 15. I used to have a movie night with the older one every 4-6 weeks when he was 5 and 6. They realize fast they are not the absolute center of the universe any longer. Nothing major but a trip to Whataburger and movie without his little brother were great memories. Man time flies
  25. Besides Barnes and DSJ is anybody on the current team going to be around if the Mavs become decent/good again?
