Quick Thoughts...

Its been a while since I have updated anything here. I apologise for that... sometimes life just gets in the way. Things should pick up again around here now. Keep your fingers crossed.

Pacman Jones is in trouble AGAIN. The kid just does not know when to keep a low profile. After another shooting at a strip club, he is wanted for questioning by Atlanta police. This pretty much dooms his NFL career. He once said he would choose his friends over his career any day. It seems he is holding true to that promise. Its sad to see such great talent wasted. He could have been one of the greats in the game.


LaVar Arrington was hospitalized Monday with serious but not life-threatening injuries after his motorcycle crashed on a highway ramp. This will almost certainly lead to an NFL rule that prohibits players from riding motorcycles. At the very least, we can count on every team including a clause in the player contracts that prohibits the activity. And we can probobly expect another fight between the Player's Union and the League because of it.

Alexi Lalas claims that the MLS is superiour to English Premiership soccer. Lalas said the only reason the English league is popular is because of American-style marketing. If thats the case, then why is the MLS not successful in its own marketing efforts? When was the last time you saw a sold out MLS game?

Get ready for the BEAVER/'EATERS game! The College World Series could see a matchup between the Oregon Beavers and the UC Irvine Anteaters (who use the name 'Eaters on thier jerseys.) I can't wait to listen to the ESPN play-by-play on the Beaver-Eaters game. It should provide many unintentionally hilarious comments.
