Tossup - Who has the brighter NFL future - Pacman Jones or Tank Johnson?
Pacman is by far the better athlete and had a bigger impact on his team.....but he is in a lot more hot water than Tank.....I don't expect neither knucklehead to change their ways, but at least Johnson is only suspended for eight games and could get a new beginning since being cut by Chicago....
Tossup - What's a bigger milestone - Frank Thomas hitting 500 homers or Craig Biggio (photo) getting 3,000 hits?
I have never been a big fan of Frank Thomas....he was always moody and sullen during his prime....then he switched to designated hitter the last part of his career...plus, Thomas is basically a mercenary who sales his services each year to a new team....if he stayed with the White Sox his whole career, I think more people would be paying attention....but he is up in Toronto - no one cares....Biggio is the dirt-dog type player I love....he came in as a catcher, moved to second base, then to centerfield, and is now back at second base....he is a hard-nosed player who is a definite first ballot Hall of Famer.....Biggio gets the nod here......
Tossup - Who will play better golf this weekend - Michelle Wie or 12-year-old Alexis Thompson?
I never heard of this Thompson kid, so I have to go with Wie.....Wie oozes with talent, but right now she is a head case with two bad wrists....she needs to clear her head and heal properly if she wants to finally win a women's tournament let alone a men's tourney.....
Tossup - What is the bigger boast - New York Knick David Lee saying the Knicks will make the playoffs or Detroit Lion quarterback Jon Kitna (photo) saying the Lions will win 10 games?
They both made big boasts, but realistically there is a better chance of Kitna being correct....an NFL team can turn it around faster than any other team in other sports....a 4-12 NFL team could win 10 games the next season.....plus, the Lions now have Calvin Johnson and a stable of running backs to go along with second year offensive coordinator Mike Martz....the Knicks however, are stuck in a salary cap quagmire under the hot spotlight of New York City.....it is possible the Lions could meet that lofty goal put forth by their quarterback...
New York Post’s Pete Vecsey runs through the top 20 players for Thursday’s NBA Draft....”Instead of mucking up a mock draft, Jim Clibanoff, President of ClibHoops, a scouting service subscribed to by most NBA teams, has provided his insights on the Top 20 prospects. He has watched each of these players multiple times throughout their careers.”...
The Portland Oregonian reports that even the state legislature is giving their opinion about who the Blazers should select in the draft....”It's nice to see 26 members of the "74th Legislative Assembly of the State of Oregon recommend that the Portland Trail Blazers choose Greg Oden of Ohio State University as the # 1 pick in the upcoming National Basketball Association draft." .....
All the talk on the west coast is about the Lakers trying to keep Kobe happy....but the Phoenix Suns may have something up their sleeve.....”The fact that such prized prospects would agree to work out for Phoenix indicates that their agents believe Phoenix is in the mix.”.....
The Chris Benoit murder-suicide still has people in disbelief....”But away from the limelight, the 40-year-old Fayette County resident was struggling with family issues he couldn’t defeat.”...
