  Mike Silva's New York Baseball Digest — Authority: 147
  I was all set to write up the Jose Reyes interview from this afternoon- short version, Jose was terrific- but then Mike’s piece calling for the National League to adopt the Designated Hitter appeared, and my plans changed. I’ve found that this argument often degenerates into such emotional terms, and I want to ...

  Alex Podlogar — Authority: 121
  OK, here is the video of Roy Williams pointing out a fan behind the UNC bench in the Tar Heels’ recent easy victory over Presbyterian. There’s a “description” of the, uh, event here, and I’m guessing Roy’s comments about the above video are these (since the audio is so bad):  “I don’t think ...

  Bad, baaaaaadddddd timing.

• Orange Pride! You Know!

  
  Alex Podlogar — Authority: 121
  Orange Pride! You Know! It seems that Lane Kiffin is rocking the boat again. Like he’s done since he’s taken over at Tennessee, Kiffin has taken what’s accepted as the norm in college football and stretched the boundaries a little. That news of an NCAA probe into the Orange Pride is more than just a tad ...

• Richmond finding his release at Rhode Island

  
  Alex Podlogar — Authority: 121
  Akeem Richmond would get the ball on the wing, square his shoulders, rise up and be ready to let the jumper fly. Only it wouldn’t get anywhere. Except backward.

I was quoted in the Elizabeth Williamson’s really well done story ...
