Why hasn't anyone signed Bonds? His chemical problems aside (just assume they don't exist), he has the reputation of not being a team player. Team chemistries (pardon the pun) are sometimes delicate, and maybe some of these teams don't want a prima donna prick in their clubhouse.

In any sporting event giving less than your best effort is reprehensible, whether you have a legitimate chance of winning or not.

Maybe most major league teams would rather not have a prick in the clubhouse.

Golly gee! With a schedule that includes powerhouses like Air Force, Navy, Army and Stanford, how can Notre Dame's schedule not be considered among the toughest in the country? Kudos to NBC for being eagle-eyed enough to consider Notre Dame's killer schedule--should make for some thrilling fall afternoons for the next five years!

There are 10 players with at least 1.000 OPS. There are 202 players with at least .300 AVG. There are 58 players with at least .400 OBP. There are 7 players with at least .600 SLG. There are 17 players with at least 5000 total bases. There are 27 players with at least 3000 hits. There are 7 players with at least 2000 runs. There are 10 players with at least 1900 RBI. There are 36 players with at least 500 SB. Griffey is not one of those players in any of those lists. Anyone can play the arbitrary end-point/cut-off game. Please note: There is only one player who is on all of those lists (except one). Hammerin' Henry Aaron?

Griffey suffered the same problems that plagued Mickey Mantle--injuries decimated parts of and almost whole seasons. What would his numbers have been had he been relatively injury free? It's fun (and probably futile) to speculate, but I think Griffey would have been sitting on top of the career home run list. Congrats to him on this accomplishment.

I'm just happy that it's his last first pitch. It was a good one though.

Steroid allegations aside, what's the union going to do--make a team sign Barry?

Sometimes being as well-loved as John Daly has become is not a good thing. It's all too easy for him to interact with his fans and fall into the inevitable party atmosphere. I wish John much luck--he's enormously talented and has a huge following. Like many of us, he has demons that must be exorcised, and maybe this is his chance to get clean.

Les Miles will be in Michigan, and Nutt will be in the Bayou, Callahan will be at UCLA, and Dorell will be in Arkansas I think Callahan will get back into the pro game as an assistant somewhere. Nutt to LSU? What about Bo Pellini? Nutt goes to Baylor, Pellini takes over at LSU. Miles will wind up in Michigan, but Dorrell and Arkansas really don't seem like a fit. I think UCLA keeps him for another year, especially if they play well against USC next week. It should be really interesting to see how the coaching carousel plays out.

We do not have a chance of national recognition until we JOIN A CONFERENCE. But then the Irish would have to share bowl revenues. Think about how much their payout would have been diluted for their totally undeserved BCS appearance last year. They would also have to play a real schedule, on a home and home basis. Wins against cupcakes like the service academies and Stanford would likely be replaced by losses by visiting places like Camp Randall, Columbus, and Champaign on a regular basis. Nope, Notre Dame will never join a conference. The Irish will try to rebuild and live on the program's tradition to keep television and bowl revenues all to themselves.

I wish the best for Ron and I hope his family is blessed with peace and patience through these difficult time.

I really wish Donovan the best. Even though his Gators will remain my arch-rival in the SEC, I've always thought he was a gentleman who ran a clean program. Good luck, Billy, and congratulations on the cash.

Tebow, McCoy, Bradford have Florida, Texas, Oklahoma 1-2-3
Florida, simply because their entire defense returns. They've proven they can stop those frothy Big Twelve offenses.
