I was at the Ravens game with Stan the day Heap was injured against Pittsburgh. Remember that’s the game Joey Porter cheap shotted him. Anyway, we heard it was a high ankle sprain. Stan told me that’s one of the worst injuries to recover from. Todd Heap was never the same. I hope Blake Griffin has a better healing process.
My gut feeling is Strasburg isn’t very physically or mentally tough. Though he has tremendous ability and talent I don’t think he’ll be an effective pitcher over the long haul.

Everyone at Koons just makes buying a car an extremely pleasurable experience!!!! Thank you Dennis, Alona, and Steve for your tremendous assistance. This Escape might just be the best car I have ever owned.
For the few opportunities for the 36 teams still vying for spots, there were really only three significant outcomes to the weekend that provided varying degrees of clarity: 1. Lehigh beating Bucknell for the Patriot League AQ; 2. North Carolina beating Virginia and ending the Cavs’ season because their sub-.500 record makes them ineligible for an at-large bid; 3. Loyola beating Johns Hopkins, which doesn’t eliminate the Blue Jays’ at-large chances, but makes it highly unlikely they receive an invite. … Read More »
Paul VI Catholic (Va.) coach Glenn Farello has sent two players to the NBA and dozens of players to Division I and Division II colleges in his 20 years as a coach in the “DMV.”
