Giggle. bet she's never had her own parking spot at Mesquite ISD, either...

Rivalry? Don't both teams have to be somewhat relevant and competitive?

Wanna see a movie? popcorn trick?

Genius. Avoid the Noid. For the record, the money thing makes no sense to me. Is an experienced ACC associate head coach moving across the country to take the job really cheaper than a former short-term Southland coach who left UTA in a cloud of drama, hasn't taken a job anywhere else since, and is working in administration at Mesquite ISD? Not on any planet I know of. No reason not to give Coach Stephens a chance. More than a year, too; she deserves every bit of what Dodge gets. I'm glad to have her here, reserve any judgement til well down the road, and trust that people who know a whole hell of a lot more than any of us made this decision. We should all welcome our new Coach with open arms. There's plenty of time to Dickey her to death after a few years. No more sudden expertism in Women's Basketball allowed.

The Eagle had a billion dollars to bribe cops with and still wore Fubu. That's a brotha who keeps it real, g.

I have to think this is just a showcase situation for Laird. The best thing that can happen is for Laird (and for that matter Bradley, Byrd, and F-Cat) to play lights out so we can move them before the deadline. In the meanwhile, Salty is getting time at OKC playing every day. With Salty, Teagarden, and Ramirez in the system, Laird is the most expendable piece we have. The Rangers made a big mistake when they came out and said Salty would be the catcher, because it just destroyed Laird's trade value. Playing him now, you just hope he performs well enough for someone who needs help behind the plate to bite. That's why it's exactly rebuilding to play a lot of these guys; odds are we're not going anywhere this year, so showcase the vets who aren't a part of your future, get some players back in return, load up the farm system even more, and turn the thing over to the kids midseason. Works for me.

And if you think that's simply because of the Ballpark, I've got some oceanfront property in Frisco I'd like to sell you. The tradition of poor management, a barren farm system (until recently), and losing has been around here a lot longer than our very nice park. Short of money raping someone, this has never been a very desirable place for FAs to land. Again, I give you Coors Field, home of the NL champion, low payroll, good pitching Colorado Rockies. using the Ballpark as an excuse is weak. We can't pitch on the road either. Pitching was a huge problem at Arlington Stadium. Pitchers who can pitch can pitch; certain types of pitchers thrive is certain environments. kenny Rogers was very successful here, a soft tossing, ground ball inducing lefty. He was better or as good here as he was in Yankee Stadium or the INSANELY pitcher friendly Comerica Park and Oakland Coliseum. Weak excuse.

If it's a JQH hotel, it's gonna be top notch. They're a big player... love what they do with their properties.

The team that plays in freaking COORS FIELD won the National League last year... with a meager payroll, no less. The stadium excuse is moot. Any tiny difference it may or may not make is no a reason for the team's failures. Both teams have to play out there... that's baseball, some parks are hitter's parks, some are pitcher's parks. What pitchers have we had in here that "would have been good" if not for the Ballpark?

stAte logo is SOOOOO much better than the stylized ASU they had prior. Best improvement ever.

Can he still cover like he used to? Can he still return kicks like he used to? Will he have a crazy flexible below market value contract full of out clauses?? Then hell yeah let's make it rain up in this joint.

But the REAL question is, can Casey Fitzgerald put up even bigger numbers next season????

more SMU threads so he can Pony Up more often?

and THIS is why you are who you are. Bra-vo. now, back to my Wholotta Platter.

it's go time.

Yeah, unless things have changed a lot in the last few years, the RTVF dept. has zilch to do with that feed.

READING COMPREHENSION SUCKS!

Agreed. Somewhere, Lyle Alzado was way ahead of the curve.

Really? Almost every article I've read (a couple on SI.com come to mind among others) indicates an overwhelming partisanship nature to the proceedings. I think it's kind of a given out there that that is how it went down, with maybe one or two occasional exceptions... what DOESN'T go down in a partisan manner these days, anyway?

If that's your attitude, I suggest you hope like crazy the NFL keeps getting a pass on this topic..... it would make baseball look lile a preschool at snack time.

What I enjoyed is how even the sides being taken in this pointless sideshow were partisan as hell... Blue congressmen generally pro-McNamee, Red pro-Clemens. So, so silly. Why single out Roger? Let's focus on where we should have been focusing a long time ago... Brady Anderson's sideburns.

Christ, I wish my girlfriend felt the same way. Alas..... sigh.

Dammit. I tried to bust him on this back on page one. Sigh. I lose again.

It's still speculation, whether it turns out to have any truth to it or not. The truth of an issue doesn't alter the fact that it's still pure speculation. Unless specific facts are identified and later verified, that's all it will ever be.

missed diagnosed? what time was it? Methinks they just need new alarms, the bastards.
