Publicity stunt and ego booster -- he believes everyone should follow his lead.

Being a Phillies fan and living just 15 miles from NY, I would vote "no" even though my district runs to the Hudson River.

Joe Paterno has it right: "Act like you've been there." To the coach who reminisced about the good old days, that must have been in the 1990's. My recollection of the 1970's was that a player scored, handed the ball to the referee, shook the hands of their teammates, and went back to the bench. If I were a college coach and saw a player dance in the end zone and yell like mad to incite the crowd, I would think twice about recruiting the kid.

Do we give much credence to Rovell given CNBC is a business channel?

What's the difference in 8 mph? If a ball hits your temple or strikes you chest, the damage will be the same whether it hits at X speed or X+8 speed. The danger would be the same whether it's a medal/composite bat or wood. Further, consider all the games which have been played with aluminum bats since they came out in the '70s. The number of such cases is miniscule.

Please make it stop, please! Oh, the humanity! My heads hurts just having his voice in my mind! Are there any pills which will let me forget this?

Little trade value? Could it also be because he has a history of throw QBs under the bus? (they're still getting the tire prints off of Tony Romo's back) I refer you to the game (not sure of the opponent) when his consecutive-game reception streak ended. His attitude during the post-game press conference should have turned off every football fan.

And you thought Steve Phillips had it bad.

How Zorn should have handled this: "Thank you, thank you, sir, for relieving me of this monstrosity," then cleaned his office and sped away from the stadium as fast as he could.

What they need is a coach with GM experience to seek better players. However, Bill Parcells is too smart to fall for that one.

"I'd say "beach ball" over "balloon", but Liverpool definitely had the wind knocked out of them by it (ka-dunk)." Etagloh will be here at the SportsFilter Cabaret all week!

You thought the kid was glum at halftime? Think he's going to sleep tonight? This will probably stay with him for a long time. May want to keep him out of school for a few days -- you can imagine the kids' reaction.

Gives me hope for this Sunday (Eagles at Oakland).
