I forgot what it was like to have an effective leadoff hitter. Roberts is way too valuable to be stealing bases. For whatever reason he has been a disaster while running the bases. One more concussion like injury and he will be through. Imagine this lineup with a healthy Nolan Reimhold. Here is a key statistic to show everyone what an incredible manager Buck is–the O’s are 35-26 yet have been outscored by 2 runs for the season.

Durant reached his breaking point once with Brown’s military-like demands, while executing a drill at the age of thirteen where he was required to stand for an hour, frozen in the proper shooting form. He’d finally had enough and stormed out. Two hours later, he was back. KD often took naps at the center. Other kids made fun of him because he ostracized himself in the cocoon of the game, always carrying a ball that often left the dirty … Read More »

I am glad this case is closed. Black Field? Pewter? No the field is green with the flag depiction in the end zones, and Maryland logo at Midfield.

So much for the regular season. The MVP of the Playoffs was Kings’ goalie Jonathan Quick. If you run into any New jersey fans tomorrow make sure you tell them how good you feel for LA winning its 1st Cup.
Sander was 6-2 this year for Maryland with a 2.87 ERA. He had been drafted last year by the O’s but opted to return for his senior year. Good luck to a great Terrapin!!!

But who will deal with James Harden in crunch time? Probably Shane Battier but Harden is younger, quicker, and a superior talent at this point in their careers.
—Much better shooting team down the stretch. There is no one in the NBA who is a better pure shooter in crunch … Read More »

I was leaving the hotel where I was staying yesterday while wearing an Adam Jones #10 jersey. The parking lot attendant saw it, and made some comment about being from Philly. At this point , I started gloating that … Read More »
