Nothing like posting from your phone. That should've said congratulations to him and the rest of the team. Good luck this weekend

Good for him. It has to be tough the last few weeks only getting a few minutes a game and knowing the hardball is being tossed around just outside the gym. Congratulations to h

Great list. Schmidt at 3rd, Mantle or Bonds over Williams/DiMaggio. Sp is toughest. Ryan one of my all time favs but Maddux, Seaver were more consistent and R. Johnson just as dominant. One game I think I may take Gibson. I read article few years back where Bench said Ryan was unhittable when he had curve working but said it was never a consistent pitch for him. I would have liked to have had his fastball to fall back on though!!

Did anyone else find the last bit of 3rd quarter as strange as I did? Holmes has ball up 2 with about 1:50 to go, goes into semi stall and then fires up about a 25 footer with 40 seconds left that wasn't close. CCH gets ball and even though they didn't score, Bolden picked up his 3rd late in quarter. I thought it was a big chance for Holmes to pick up momentum and instead CCH did without scoring a point.

So in other words he'll be washing them.

When one considers some of the bands/pop artists who have made the HOF or are about to, I would consider it almost a badge of honor to not be in the hall. How can Yes, Deep Purple, Bad Company and especially Cheap Trick not be in?

If you played with him then you must have played with Wolfe. And you don't rank him in your top ten?!! That first state team had heart personified with Mike on D and Bieger on O. Not a great qb by any means but my goodness, what a tough sob. Maybe the two finest leaders one team has ever had. Guys I know from that team talk glowingly of both.

I shall re phrase then. Holtz and Ryan deserved better. The field was barely playable at times the last few years and if not for those two it wasn't playable. Holmes did NOTHING with upkeep. Also, if not mistaken didn't HC pay for the concession stand installed a few years ago? If the school district is in charge of upkeep, I hope it is remembered a few years down the road that various local companies and organizations donated to this. It needs to be taken care of properly.

I know for a fact that Holmes has control over the field scheduling wise but have heard that HC may play some games there but not nearly as many as they have been. Mike Holtz and Pat Ryan put a as much time and effort as they could the last 5 years- way more than anyone from Homes for sure - and got the shaft. Unsure at this time where HC will play. One thing for sure is neither will play there this year. Cordero Field?

Not sure you want this. Ted will get instant respect from the kids and they will go hard for him. He demands respect and gives it back if you earn it. That's been missing for a while. If he can get a staff with some experience and maybe some new faces like Don Bieger for one, I would hire him in a minute. He'll bring a blue collar attitude and a toughness that is what this program needs. I had a coach from another team say to me, I hope they don't hire Ted.

That's really cool. Maybe my dad is working out in the am and I didn't know!!

Planks are great but man do I hate doing them. 5 minutes is nuts and I read somewhere that Rob Gronkowski does them 10 minutes at a time. That's unreal if true. I've gotten over 2.5 minutes and hope to keep climbing. Congrats to you on the early morning workout. Something I've never been able to do other than 10-15 minutes at my house. I'm jealous. Good luck with your 5. It always seems like it's tough to lose 5. If one lets himself go like I did this past year, the initial weight flys off but after that... My optimal weight is around 225 and I guarantee when I get down to about 232 or so, those last 7 will be the hardest.

I bought a workout routine a few years back called kettle worx. It works out all parts of body. Has 10-20 minute workouts. I'll do something like cardio in am before work and in evening I'll do resistance or arms, etc... When I did it few years back I wasn't as heavy, just wanted more tone and trying to lose a little of the love handles. Now I'm basically doing more cardio/fat burn rather than toning. Work with 20 and 30lb bell. Not going to bulk up with this routine but can definitely tell difference after 3-4 weeks.

I understand your point and I too get upset with Bruce at times for not going the other way either because he won't or can't. However, every manager starts a series with the idea that there is one player who is not beating them. The last few years that has been Bruce for the Reds because he has the most pop on the team and because Votto has not been Votto. Therefore, most managers would be more than happy to let him single his way on and will not take the shift off no matter how many bunt/infield singles he gets. As for Trout, he can have all the singles and stolen bases he wants as long as he doesn't beat me with a three run dinger. I'd be happy to basically give up a double to him every time and take my chances. On that team however your taking a chance with either Pujols or Hamilton behind him and that's scary if they're healthy. I actually love small ball but there are a few guys in the lineup who have to drive in runs and protect the rest of the lineup. Bruce should be one of those and I hope he gets back to it again this year.

I got on scale about 6 weeks back and couldn't believe I had gained about 25 pounds since last April. I started working with kettle bells and lost 10lbs in 3 weeks. Now the question. I like beer. I will watch what I eat during week and limit beer but on weekends I like my buds. I find now that I'm just basically maintaining. Is it possible to drink and lose weight or should I just expect to maintain? Thanks.

So he could have raised his average to around .250 if he gets some bunts down? Not too sure that's why he makes 10 million+. If everyone should bunt on a shift then when Mike Trout comes up, I'd put my whole infield in the outfield.

Was a ton of fun and after game 4, the party in downtown was awesome and guess what, no fires were started and no riot police needed. Good clean fun. I was in my late teens, early 20's in that period and I didn't appreciate how good it was. You're right, I wish I could watch again. Lakers-Celtics, Pistons bad boys (done very well on 30 for 30 on ESPN), Oakland A's, Michael Jordan, Cowboys dynasty just starting. It beats what we watch today.

Pats 20-17. Sherman looked hurt at end so if he's out makes a big difference. I just thought Pack looked like better team most of the game and Pats offer just enough of a run game to offset Sea pass rush. One thing is for sure- NFL wanted NE/GB and the qb matchup.

NCC in either 2010 and 11 or 11/12. Before that it was mid 90's CCH. Beechwood and CCH came close in early to mid 2000's with both going 3 straight times and both teams losing middle game.

I would have Conner in my top 5 and I think everyone in that district will be tough. As usual it will be the toughest district to get out of. Not sure I agree with your assessment on coaches though.

Top four I'm sold on but curious as to why you think Campbell?

The person I spoke with said most likely back field at Cappel. That will make Meinken look like GABP!! Seen some knothole games there and rough does not describe it. Not sure what jv/frosh will do. Maybe one of the softball fields.

That's an aggressive time frame considering a lot of this work will need to be done in winter and wet spring season. I am sure that both schools are thrilled and to a small extent, beechwood and cch who play districts there in back to back years.

Heard from someone in Covington that meinken is very likely getting turf field with work starting soon and no games there this year. Anyone have any knowledge of this?
