Sports - 29 August 2006

I think the media sometimes makes characters out of people. I am sure TO has done his part to make it easy for them, but ESPN and other media groups seem to have it out for this guy. The same thing with Barry Bonds and Baseball and Iverson in basketball. When something goes wrong in the sport, somehow it always goes back to these guys...I just don't think it is fair. They paint a villian out of these guys without any type of Journalistic integrity or social concern. They create a truth they want people to believe in order to sell ratings. Babe Ruth was worse than any of these guys, Jordan was a known gambler, yet Pete Rose gets kept out of the hall....wtf.... Are our heros and villians real, or created by Dan Patrick?

How will my Golden (State) W's do now that Don Nelson is back in Oakland and the Stanfurd (sp intentional) reject Mike Montgumery is out???? Will the warriors make the playoffs or will I be forced to suffer in between The Raiders and A's seasons with another bad year???

What's the best interface for making trades and evuating players for your fantasy football draft and trades in the future? I'm thinking somthing similar to a financial site.

Please rate my team too? Who to trade, etc?

Larry Johnson (RB)
Lamont Jordan (RB)
Frank Gore (RB)
Cedric Benson(RB)
Mike Bell(RB)
Dominic Rhodes(RB)
Derek Blaylock (RB)
Deon Branch(WR)
Reggie Wayne (WR)
Matt Jones(WR)
Terry Glenn(WR)
Antonio Briant(WR)
Chris Cooley (TE)
Matt Hassalback (QB)
Billy Volek (QB)
Jay Feeley (K)

My league uses 3 RB, 3 WR or TE, 1QB, 1K, and 1 optional player each week which could be any of the above. No Defense.

Cheers!

What is the problem with Big Papi? what is he suffering from??? Why is he going back to Boston today???? Also, why hasn't Manny been playing????

p.s. I hope he gets better but I'm glad he's missing the last two games against the A's! Go Oakland.

What do you think of Randy Lerner? Do you think he will give o'neil plenty of money for players. Where do you think Villa will finish this season? And finally do you think they will rename the Doug Ellis Stand?

I think it is RIDICULOUS that all these schools are being forced to change nicknames. In the lower divisions, the NCAA has deemed that any team with an Indian-themed nickname cannot host a playoff game. I don't want to see schools like Illinois and Florida State lose their nicknames next. What's your opinion?

The game channel is too impersonal. I don't feel part of the game. I can't react to the details of the game or enjoy it.

Where can I get one of those big, cushiony blue mats you see in gyms under stuff like rope climbing and rock climbing to cushion the fall? I'm talking about the giant ones about 1 foot high.

Which would you choose if you were going for a new road bike? Why would you take one over the other. Anything else out there you would recommend? Other than Litespeed that is have ridden those and being a bigger guy 6'1 190 I feel WAY to much flex in those bikes.

Not looking for racing I'm done with racing but want long tours and good club rides. I've got my preferences but want to hear others thoughts and see if there is something else out there I might be missing.
