Sports - 23 October 2007

I know he's a frontrunner for the National League MVP, but it seems apparent to me that he's a beneficiary of playing in Coors Field.

His career splits show a .364 average at home, versus .273 on the road. And in 2007, his slugging percentage was almost 250 points higher at home than on the road. Not that he was a bad player on the road (.301 BA), but not a superstar, either. To me, he's benefitting from the same effects that made ordinary players like Dante Bichette, Vinny Castilla and Jeff Cirillo into stars.

Would Holliday produce at anything close to this pace on another team? If you think he would, why do you think that?

People call Alonso selfish, but forget he was the defending Champion.

Why do people think he came to McLaren? To sucumb to a #2 driver a help a rookie take his title???

I don't get it. Did people really expect Fernando to willingly take the #2 position in the team and let a rookie take over? it boggles my mind.

In truth everyone seems to have jumped on bandwagons for teams that are doing well. I love sports and get irriated seeing someone in a Red Sox hat when they can't even name 3 players on the team.

how come pakistan was able to beat south africa twice in a row? pak has a very poor record against south africa. this gives worry that India may have very tough time against pak next month, if south africa itself isn't able to beat pak.

I kickbox for a gym in Ohio. I've been training in Muay Thai for about a year and a half. I've fought a few Taekwondo guys in tournaments and have never lost to them. Which is a better martial art in your opinion?

Im just curious what people have to say now.

If you double cover moss then you have welker/stallworth and watson?

When morris is healthy then they have 3 decent RB's Marroney/morris/faulk

There defence has looked pretty good and the best defensive player they got is coming back which is Seymore and after watching the miami game harrison looked great and seems to be 100% and energized

What are teams suppose to do against these guys?? i think the colts game will be a good game but i would have to say the pats will win and dont say the colts have played harder teams the only hard team they played was the titans and they only won by 2 points and if you score more then 21 points against the jags you seem to win easy because they have no offence.
In my opinion the only team i think that will beat the patriots is the giants in the final weeks because i cant see the pats playing all there starters because by week 10 they will win there division

Alright, guys, I have been reading your responses for the better half of the year now, and I have to ask...

If you could pass on your experiences, and stories, lessons and wisdoms to lower belts, what would you tell them? (me).. You all obviously have experience in this, and you all bring different perspectives. In other words, I guess I want to know what you know (in a nutshell, I am a few years behind you guys!)

Hi,

There's this dude in my class whom I'm really not getting along with. A few times, we almost got into a fight. I predict that one day, we're probably gonna have a fist fight. But I haven't fought anyone in 3 years, and I don't really know any fighting skills. Plus he's taller than me, which puts me to a disadvantage.
I want to learn some good fighting skills/techniques which would ensure me victory. I seriously want to kick this guy's *** right now. :(

So can you suggest some strategies/moves etc? Or some website links on the matter would help.

PS: I'm 13 and he's 14 and a half. We're in grade 9

It was only for a brief moment, but all of a sudden, it seemed like the race i've been wanting to see all season, when Dale Earnhardt Jr was running in first position and Martin Truex was in second. It was like it should've been that way all season. That was the best part of the race for me. It always looks like Junior knows how to work with his teammates.
