So Fresh and So Clean

Some new things to kick around.....

Maybe Patrick Ewing shoud have spent less time in the strip club and more time teaching his son to play ball......Patrick Ewing Jr. cut by Knicks.

Baseball.....Sorry ZG, you know I couldn't resist. HUGE night for the Philies last night, Ryan Howard remembering he's Ryan Howard and jumping ship twice last night. A shot to the left field corner then a rocket to right field that took about .2 seconds to leave the park. Plus a Joe Blanton getting his first extra base hit EVER and yanking Edwin Jackson out of the yard. Not a close game but still exciting. Lets see if the feel good story can pull a comeback out of there ARSSSEE and make the last few games of the MLB season memorable.

HOCKEY....Beginning of the season has been promising for the CBJ, but as always they have lacked consistency. Hopefully they can find it b/c the roster actually resembles an NHL roster this year and they just LOOK better on the ice this year. Right now it feels good, I just hope wins follow to keep that feeling around.

OSU....Offense regressed this week. TP2 was solid. I know everyone will point to the fumble and say it was a bad play (which it was), but the decision to leave the pocket and bounce it outside was a good one. If the Penn St. linebacker doesn't poke the ball TP stiff arms the guy like he has done a dozen times already this year and has open field for days on the outside. I know that sounds like making excuses and is a big "WHAT IF" but that play wasn't the game breaker. The game breaker was that the O-line again couldn't block. Oh well, a two loss season and a trip to the Outback bowl is in our future. Hopefully The Vest will take the off season to find a new offensive scheme. As Big Ten fans it's time to start cheering for Penn State now, hopefully they can get some respect for the Big Ten back.

Fantasy Notes....ZG suffered his first lost of the season on a technicality, but it's only one loss and his team still only lost by a single point with SJAX missing the game. I think he'll be fine, which is why I hate him. Both of my teams look to finally be on track, so hopefully this won't be a completely wasted season. B-Ball is starting this week, so I'm pretty sure we won't have teams drafted in time, BUT, I'll be sending invites to all of you so we can put one together to start early next week.

Drinking Notes.....Patton was in rare dancing form on Friday night, was a sight to behold. Iantosca made a solid return to the Bus and was insulted by the guy running the door at Frog Bear by being called Alex P. Keaton. Not a highligth reel night for myself but it was good times....ZG claims to have made it to Columbus but I was unable to confirm or deny this claim, he says he'll be back again this weekend so apparently more drinking is in my future.

OK people get talking now....Streck get to typing and say something ridiculous and offensive.....KD where is the College Football recaps? Patton, Hosk, Reynolds? ARE YOU FUCKING ALIVE???????
