Sports - 6 November 2007

On Curt's Blog he made the announcement that he will be returning for 1 more year to end his career in a RED SOX uniform where he started as a prospect.
The deal looks like this.

$8 million in guaranteed base salary
$2 million in bonuses for 6 seperate weigh ins.
$3 million in IP incentives based on IP totals.
$1 million for receiving a Cy Young vote, any vote.

I am psyched because he is a true pro with alot of great leadership qualites to pass on to the younger pitchers and will have a very good year by the looks of what he did after he came of the DL this year.
Thoughts?

I would say the King because he plays under more pressure because he plays in the greatest city in the world and has a better team.

If players used drugs, that are on the banned substance list now, throughout the 1990's but stopped when the MLB drug policy was implemented in the early 2000's, are they guilty of any violations in the eyes of MLB and should MLB take any action against them now?

I am amped, and eagerly anticipating Saturday's game. The original Vegas line was set at Pick'Em, and, objectively, I consider this one to be a toss-up. I saw Auburn's performances at UF and at LSU, so I know they're a good road team, and capable. The Dawgs have shown what they can do when they bring intensity as well.

How do you all see the game turning out? Obviously I believe in my Dawgs, but I don't think it'll be a cakewalk.

I don't have the anxiety that I usually have for a big Georgia game because UGA has slayed its biggest demon, the Gators, and I'm still savoring that a little. With the SEC East title possibly on the line, the pressure to win the game is great, but I'm going to actually try to sit back and relax, and actually enjoy, as opposed biting nails throughout.

Anyway, what do you folks think? Who's gonna prevail? And what will be the keys to victory?

I thought it was time last week. Lane Kiffin has to make the call. At 2-6 in the AFC we have no choice. He's surrounded by veterans to have his back, our line is a lot better besides Sims and his penalties, it will spark our whole team. I say put him in and limit his passes to about 10-15 a game and put the ball in Fargas, Rhodes, and Jordan's hands. Defenses wont be ready for that 75 yrd. bomb. He can also take some shots with his physique. The time is now, McCown and Culpepper proven they cant get it done so u move on to the next guy, and that happens to be a 265 lbs. 6-6 1st overall pick. Look at what young and roethesberger did their first season. He could potentially be better. What are your thoughts with Chicago coming to Oakland, keep in mind its not the same D as last year.

Ocho Cinco was being interviewed via radio and promised Cincy fans that he'll be back on the field soon and guarandamnteed that they'd win the North. He was also quoted as calling Big Ben a punk whose team got lucky during their Super Bowl run by cheap-shoting Carson Palmer.

A couple days ago, I bought a Stevens model 311 series h 12 ga. double barrel shotgun. I bought it from my neigbor. We both live in Washington state. The guy my neigbor got it from lived in Portland, Oregon. From what I've heard, it's illegal to trnsport firearms across state lines, but my neigbor did it, not me. So, does anyone have the right to take the shotgun away from me? I also heard that this rule only applies to "handguns", and not shotguns or rifles.

is the four inch model 500 revolver really that much louder and its muzzle blast really all that brighter than the 8 inch model, the 8 inch seems outrageously long and i heard the 4 inch was weaker. If it is any of these how much weaker, louder and brighter is it
