NYB: "Being a hot, trashy bitch doesn't require athleticism." Speaking of the Mets, did anyone see that they gave Julio Franco a TWO year deal?? Won't he be 90 years old in two years??

SB31: "the Yankees definitely need some serious help with their pitching staff" Yep. And it aint coming this season. They're going to throw a small fortune at Barry Zito next offseason to get him in the Bronx.

AKAK: "I'm just curious as to why the Yankees aren't working harder on the bullpen, as Sloops said... (availability obviously is on thing)" Quite simply, there's no Bullpen people out there who're an upgrade over what they have. They thought they could lure B.J. Ryan into the set-up role...

ScarletBlood31: "An injury-prone SS with a recently weak bat to go play first base... what about Giambi and how well he did towards the end of the season?" Nomar wouldn't play 1B everyday. The Giambino & Nomar would split time at 1B. Some days the line-up would look like this: Giambi - DH...

Thump: "Waiting for Sloopy45's meltdown any moment now." No meltdown. Name aside, they're making a 1 year deal offer to someone who would be a platoon 1B/bench player. Not a big deal. If this player's name was Jeff Jones, no one would be making a stink about it. My "official" Yankee...

GoBucks89: "It's called the lure of a new challenge. Doing something you've never done before. Climbing to the summit of the football world. And that summit, my friends, is the Super Bowl." If Carroll gets offered an NFL job, he'll take it. The salary discrepancy between NFL Head coaches and...

Al Gore invented Escape Club.

Al Gore invented hitting on a chick in a bar and getting the Heisman.

Sloopy's Best 11: POSITION PLAYER QB Tommie Frazier, Nebraska RB Eddie George, Ohio State WR Terry Glenn, Ohio State OL Orlando Pace, Ohio State DL...

If anyone's seen the Dukes of Hazzard, then you'd easily have your worst movie of the year. Even Jessica Simpson strolling around in a bikini couldn't save it.

David Lee Roth is the quintessential rock n roll front man. Had VH stayed together, they would easily be one of the biggest bands of all time. That being said, the Hagar years weren't bad - there were a lot of good tunes. Van Halen's peak is still their first album. The others were great...

These programs keep hiring the Barnett's, Neuheisel's, and Air Mumme's of the world in hopes of getting a quick fix. Which they usually get. But, on their way out the door, the program is usually in shambles with the rep to match.

Ditto, LJB. I had the lone 1st place vote for Steve Weatherford of Illinois. He was by far the best punter I saw this season, and was quite impressive. The best player on the Illini this season, in fact.

FCB: "And she said: "Van who?" I actually work with two 23 year olds and told them that Eddie Van Halen was getting a divorce. Neither knew who Van Halen is, or what songs they sang.

BB73: "I'm guessing you didn't know any Nebraska fans. They were justifiably proud of their own 1995 team, which still has a legitamite claim to be in the 'best team ever' discussion." Nebraska 1995 was the best team I ever saw, but 1995 OSU would've also had a claim to that, had we run the...

Mili: "1995 just shows what kind of big-game choke Hee-yuk Cooper was" Definately. The 1995 team (most people don't know this) was the most decorated CFB team in history. Think about that: it had the Heisman, Lombardi, Biletnikoff, and Walter Camp award winners all on the same team AND in...

Steve Emtman would've been a HOF'er in the Pros if he didn't get hurt. That guy very well could've been the best DT in CFB history. An outright animal. Quentin Coryatt was a solid LB for a long time too.

Mili: "You'll see Lloyd Carr win another national title and have Thump quit talking about homos before you see that happen..." Well, you never know. Maybe not soon, but look at the Eagles and Cream. They hated each other for a very long time, but they got so old and so desperate for...

Al Gore invented Hannibal Lechter.

Mili: "You obviously are unfamiliar with California divorce laws. She'll get half of everything, as a minimum..." It doesn't matter. If Eddie gets really desperate, he can suck up his pride, reunite the band with David Lee Roth and go on tour. It would easily be the biggest rock reunion...
