I'll try to give it a go:
1. The silliest, most misleading and useless statistic in sports is quarterback rating. It makes mediocre quarterbacks, whose teams fall behind by 24 points, look like stars when they throw for 200 yards in the fourth quarter when the defense is giving him the yards. It also doesn't differentiate between interceptions at the end of a half or game or when the qb is desperately trying to win from the bonehead picks.
2. Some basball thoughts:
Since I've been watching baseball, Bert Blyleven has had the best curve ball. It's an outrage that he is not in the Hall of Fame.
Johnny Cueto of the Reds is going to be a huge pitching star in the major leagues.
The best baseball book I've read is The Glory of Their Times by Lawrence Ritter.
I love the all-star game, but letting home field advantage for the World Series ride on it is silly and gimmicky. Half the players in the game don't reasonably anticipate playing in the series.
3. Sports media personalities, whose egos surpass their talent include Chris Berman, Stuart Scott, Dan Patrick, Bob Ryan and Mike Lupica. I generally tune these people out. I think the most informative and original personalities at ESPN are Tony Kornheiser, Peter Gammons, Colin Cowherd. I also like Scott Van Pelt.
4. It still sparks a childhood interest and sense of wonder whenever I see a cardinal or a blue jay. They usually hold my attention until they fly away.
5. Benedict Arnold, treason and treachery aside, was the most skilled and effective general of the Revolutionary War. He'd have been one of the most honored names in American history from that era if he had not conspired to hand over West Point.
6. Blibbleblabble strikes me as a guy, who doesn't have a temper. He'd be a great social worker. Goombah seems like a very organized person, and would make a great middle school or high school teacher.
7. I'm not a big Penn State fan even though I'm from PA, but Joe Paterno is the greatest single figure in the history of college sports. After he retires (or passes), the winner of the national championship game should receive the "Paterno Trophy."
8. Lawn work always takes a lot longer to do than it first looks. When I first bought a home and property, I felt as though I really owned something, bot the longer I own property, the more I realize the property owns me.
9. It's amazing how Kobe Bryant resurrected his image when several years agoit looked as though he might be going to jail for a very long time. It didn't affect his play, the endorsements returned, and his jersey was the biggest seller in the league this year.
10. No matter what gets posted in this thread, it's going to be awfully hard to top Don Sicilia's picture of Megan Fox. If I came upon that sight while driving down the highway, I'd stop to check under her hood and offer assistance...even though I know very little about cars.
