Leinart signs a large contract from the sounds of it coach Green is not too happy with the way some things were handled.

Telling Signs Can Tip Scales on Mound It seems to be "Let's look at pitching" week in the Boston Globe. Is it really an advantage to know what the pitcher is about to throw? Some say it is, others say not. The David Ortiz approach seems to me to be the most valid, ``I just see the ball and hit it. Don't bother me with that other stuff."

"Damon has a reputation within baseball clubhouses as being a creepily ardent admirer of his own butt.

Bengals Fans Can Call 'Jerk"'Hotline Tired of the drunks and nasty language during the Game? If you're a Bengals fan you can use your cell phone, call the Jerk Hotline, get the offenders investigated and maybe even run out of the stadium, all while the game is being played. Sounds like a great idea to me and it might cut down on fights and just generally boorish behavior from troublemakers.

Quite possibly, one of the best things ever said............. Dec. 10--During a 24-17 loss to Seattle, Bengals coach Sam Wyche grabs the on-field microphone and exhorts fans to stop throwing snowballs by yelling: "You don't live in Cleveland, you live in Cincinnati!"

College Football Rankings - Week 1 Are you ready for some college football? The polls are out. I'm very surprised that Oklahoma is still #5 after having their quarterback tossed for the season.

If we win there, take care of business with Iowa, PSU, and Mich. We will be playin for another National Championship. We are hiring Maurice Clarett for our scouting team, so if you see a dude with a kevlar vest and 4 or 5 guns, dont worry. Too bad we dont play the Irish, we need another tune up game. Although Cincinnati will be tougher

The NFL names former Tagliabue top assistant Roger Goodell new commissioner. Not much of a surprise there.

First rule with pitchers is: Handle with care Bob Ryan has an interesting slant on pitching and its evolution over the past several years. I have never understood why today's pitchers can't start every 4th day, and routinely are pulled after the magic 100 pitch mark. If Warren Spahn could do it, why can't ... (insert name here)?

Which would be better? A middle reliever with a 5.00 era making about a mil a year or a punter making about a mil a year. Either way, if you figure actual hours worked you would make something like 5 grand an hour. Tom Seaver is the Man

This is fun. I work a very stressful job, and I laugh out loud at these threads. Dude, the whole "look it up" thing is a joke. Ever watch any Will Ferrell movies? I was just bustin balls, like real guys do. Sorry if you got your feelings hurt or for the "unintelligent discourse". But this is SPORTS, where Beer drinking is expected, belching and farting encouraged, hookers welcomed. Geesh, IF you two even have a girl, she probably makes you tuck your sack back and wont let you pee standing up. So enjoy your personal copy of Brokeback Mountain and if at all possible grow some testicles. Oh, and for the record....... Notre Dame still sucks balls and OHIO STATE will keep their #1 rating. Hugs and Kisses Your Friendly Neighborhood Sports Guy

Why We Hate A-Rod Eric Neel takes a look at why A-Rod, one of the best baseball players most of us have ever seen, is generally disliked by fans.
posted by bperk at 11:38 AM on August 09
Name a team (if the could afford the salary) that wouldnt want A-Rod on their roster. Not a fan or a hater, I dont know that much other than he is a very good player. This is America, where you have the right to make as much money as you can. There are a very very few percantage of people that wouldnt have done the same thing if they had the chance to make that kind of money, legally. Wjile the rest of bitch about his salary and playoff performance, he will retire with some of the best stats of anyone to play the game, a sure Hall of Famer, and will live the rest of his life in financial security. I could deal with that.

I like this concept, this will automatically prevent Cleveland and Pittsbugh fans from attending games. This will make the Bengals run to the Super Bowl more enjoyable

From Bad to Worse for Maurice Clarett The ex-Ohio State running back was arrested early this morning after a traffic stop. After struggling with officers, Clarett, who is already awaiting trial on robbery charges, was hit with the stun gun, which was ineffective, because he was wearing a bulletpfoof vest. After he was Maced, it still took "several officers" to subdue and cuff Clarett, who was carrying four loaded weapons in his SUV.

Maurice was at a fund rasing event for Smith and Wesson raising money for local gangs and showing the importance of bullet proof vests. He liked the feel of the vest and forgot to take it off as it was very comfortable. He had just finished dropping off the last of his church group and was pulled over for a minor infraction. I have it on good authority, the cops that pulled him over are originally from Michigan. The guns were planted as part of a conspiricy against poor Maurice.

I see your response, but all I can read is blah blah blah At the end of the year when you are playing in the Tampax Bowl against Bob Jones University, we will be in a BCS bowl. This is common knowledge. Look it up.

OK, more on Notre Dame #1 - In order to be #1, you need a defense that can stop your average High School Team. #2 - You had to take your running back and make him a linebacker, whats up with that? #3 - Your best receiver is a better baseball player than a football player. Maybe he should carry a bat. #4 - Isnt it about time for a uniform change #5 - Just give up, it's not gonna happen. #6. - Notre Dame will lose to Michigan, and Michigan sucks. #7 - Do you honestly call games against Army, Air Force, and Navy an actual game. #8 - Charlie Weiss is probably saying "Damn! why did I leave New England" #9 - Rudy is too old to play now #10 - Whats up with the golden dome, that thing needs painted.

I feel your pain bonds, as a Bengal Fan I lived through the 90's and the early 2000 years with Mike Brown making spectacular choices for the Bengals, without thniking too hard, I can throw you; akili smith, ki-jana carter, dan wilkinson, david klingler. Then to top things off our coaching staff. However, you guys seem to be heading in the right direction, if Warner is haelthy and plays to his ability, your offense will be tough.
