just some thoughts

First I am glad I was wrong and the Tigers, after scoring 19 runs in game one, didn't slow down too much and put up 7 in each of the next two to sweep the royals. Big, big, big series coming up vs the white sox, in d town the Tigers need to win this series, a sweep would be great, that would put them only 2 and a half back... The offense is starting to click, verlander is pitching like he can, and we are showing signs. If only we didn't put ourselves in such a big hole, but there is still time to get out.

The wnba fight was great, but suspensions were a little much. 4 games for pierson who people say started it, when really she kind of went in to parker, and then candance took her down, as they got tangled, and then she did kind of go after her, But candance only got one game, mahorn got two, which is crazy, He is just a very very big man, and lisa leslie is skinny, he was holding her back and she fell. But I did enjoy it. It is bad press for the league, but it is press, so it is kind of good for them. One other quick note, I know no one cares, and really either do I, but I saw it and had to commit The Shocked signed nancy Liberman, who is 50 by the way, YES 50, to a 7 day contract.... wow, anyway, moving on

The Hawks now have to resign Josh Smith or they are in trouble and will not get back to the playoffs next year. Josh Childress signed a three year deal with a Greek team. He isn't a star but he averaged about 11 a game last year and was their key bench player. he is going to make 20 million after taxes, he does have the ability to opt out after each year, so we will see if he stays all three years. I am surprised by this, but I don't think the NBA is in trouble and going to lose a bunch of guys to foreign leagues.

Speaking of guys who should maybe be in foreign league. The star of though the fire, the great sebastian telfair got a two year deal with a player option for a third. That will turn out to be just a wonderful move for the T wolves... um, yeah, not so much. I am actually starting to feel bad for T wolves fans, if there are any left. First you trade KG, then watch him win a title, then you draft Oj mayo, who is sick, and could put butts in the seats, but then you trade him for kevin love, who I am a fan of, but love doesn't have the flash and will not be the box office hit mayo will be, then you re sign a guy who can't shoot, and is undersized. That is going to be their pg of the future.. good luck, good thing Al jefferson is good, or they would have nothing.

Thank you tribe for trading CC to the NL, so he can tear it up, and help my fantasy team. That is all.

well actually, one other quick CC thing. 3 complete games in a row, wow, it makes you wonder, is he just pitching better now, is the NL really just that much worse then the AL, or is he throwing too many pitches and it will come back to hunt the brew crew in the end.. stay turned.

NFL training camps are starting, oh happy day. I am a little sad about my giants trading shockey cause I have always liked him, but a 2 and a 5 is good value, and he is kind of a hot head, ok, not kind of, a big hot head, and boss really stepped up last year, so it will be fine. Just the timing of it, is a little odd.

One last thing.... would Brett Farve please go away, thank you. I'm right, you're wrong.
