Sports - 31 March 2007

Why is the play clock 40 seconds? Coming from Australia I'm used to faster sports although I do like American and Canadian football. Why doesn't the NFL have 25 seconds like in college football? Surely 25 seconds is long enough to make a play?

The mystery man is Shaq with a bunch of different skills.
Check it out:
Lets say Shaq had:

Reggie Miller's 3 point shot
Michael Jordans's clutch shooting
Allen Iverson's speed
Magic Johnson's ball handling skills
Chaucney Billups free throw shooting
Bill Russell's desire to win
Magic Johnson's leadership
Ben Wallace's defense
Rip Hamilton's endurance
Vince Carter's jumping ability
Michael Jordan's athletic ability
Had the ability to carry his team to a 82-0 record & go undefeated in the playoffs
Had the basketball knowledge of Phil Jackson & Pat Riley combined

Do you think Shaq would be better then Michael Jordan if he had all of those skills combined in his 7'1 & 330 lb. frame?

If Shaq was like that I think Michael Jordan would still be better.

Ha! I am laughing at the fools in the media who are changing thier predictions just because of Mr. PineTar.
Sure The Tigers will miss Rogers, but it's not the end of the world. If Chad Durbin doesn't work The Tigers have plenty of other help down in Toledo. Yes, I am concerned....but I am NOT worried.

You can really go either way one this question and personally it's tough to decide but I don't think either should be fired this year but I do think the Pacers need to stop relying on the draft in the offseason and sign free agents. I am sorry but I am from Indianapolis and the people of Indiana are frustrated with the fact that even with us being the basketball capital of the world we still don't have an NBA Chapionship in this state, it's like one of the Canadien NHL teams not having a NHL Championship, it's just wrong. What do you think?

I'm not talking about draft picks in terms of how players turned out, but overall strategy a team has used with a draft pic.

Hi I am going to buy a bike and I am interested in 3 bikes one from

-argos
-Toys R Us
-Local Bike shop

what is the main differene from buying a 'Bike in a box' vs from a bike shop ? please explain in detail.

What should I consider when buying a bike ?

I was thinking this bike out of argos -because of full suspension price £89.99

http://www.argos.co.uk/static/Product/partNumber/3321085.htm

this one from Toys R Us because of-price full suspension and disc brakes price £99.99

http://www.toysrus.co.uk/Product.aspx/TruHome/TruBikesWheeledGoods/TruBikesWheeledGoodsMens/TruBikesWheeledGoodsMens26InchWheel/73002

and this one because I imagine it'd be better quality and the bike shop said thet would put 'Hybrid' tyres which would be better for road/pavement use (is this a good idea?)
http://www.giant-bicycles.com/en-GB/bikes/mountain/223/15040/
is there anything else I shop consider ?
which one of these bikes would be best ? or does anyone know anything better?

I am a junior at my high school. I was cut from the JV baseball team. I played Jv last year but did not have that much playing time. I play for one of the best teams in the state. I was told by my coach i had a great bat and was one of the fastest guys on the team by my coach told me my arm was weak. When I tryed out this year I did very well batting and very well feilding. But my school only cares about the radar gun evidently because i only thre 58 mph when my competition was throwing 68. But they dont hit or fielld like as good as I do. But a lot of my competition was sophmores. I was going for the outfield.
I would just like to hear what other people think
