We already know that John Wall and Derick Favors both visited NC State on the same weekend, and were both in attendance at the “Open Practice” at Reynolds Coliseum. If a lot has happened since then, I do not know about it. Bob Gibbons seems to have a feeling about Wall, though, and if he is correct Wolfpack Nation will be happy campers when the 6′4″ point guard announces where he will spend his college career. Hat tip to Alpha Wolf on this one.

Sports Illustrated’s Jon Heyman is reporting that the Colorado Rockies are shopping Matt Holliday. Holliday, who is a free agent after next season, should get the attention of every GM in MLB. The problem will be what the Rockies demand in return. Right now, it looks like they are asking for a young pitcher with at least #2 potential. Colorado GM Dan O’Dowd says that he is open to different packages, however, depending on the team he is dealing with.
As the game was on ESPN.360, which I have yet to meet someone who has the ability to watch, we did not get to see the NC State/Maryland football game on Saturday. Looking at the box score, one has to wonder how in the hell NC State lost this game. Thoughts after the jump. Continue reading ‘Terps Find a Way to Beat State’
It was a great Game 3, and I have plenty of thoughts. Hit them up after the jump. Continue reading ‘Game 3 Controversy, Umps drop another Palin on the Phils’
In Game One, we got the “Balk” controversy that I still have not seen the proper replay angles on to decide for myself if the call was correct. My gut tells me Hamels did not balk, and with a lack of evidence to the contrary, I am going to side with Blue on that one. Game Two’s controversial call after the jump.

Atlanta Braves GM Frank Wren reiterated today that he will not part with any of his top prospects, even if it meant bringing Jake Peavy home where he belongs. I am not sure who he plans on offering for Peavy, but if he lets this opportunity pass him by it will be a huge mistake in my eyes. Peavy, 27, is poised to be an ace for the next 10 years. More after the jump. Continue reading ‘Frank Wren Wants to Piss Me Off?’

ESPN’s Dick Vitale broke the story today that Lute Olson is retiring from coaching at the University of Arizona. The 74 year old Olson has had quite a few medical issues the past few years, and it’s reported that this is a “health related” retirement. CBS Sportsline’s Gary Parrish thinks that Gonzaga and Pitt had better watch out, because Mark Few and Jamie Dixon could be the prime targets as Olson’s replacement. Both coaches would be excellent choices, and could take Arizona back to where it belongs at the top of the Pac 10.
The Devil Rays are upset about a call that went against them in last night’s Game One of the World Series. They do have some room to be upset, but they need to realize they had 11 more outs to go in the game that they could have capitalized on. More after the jump. Continue reading ‘Game One Controversy’
Tonight marks the start of the 2008 World Series between the Tampa Bay Devil Rays (yes, I know they dropped the devil from their name, but I refuse to fall in line!) and the Philadelphia Phillies. Who will win? My thoughts after the jump. Continue reading ‘World Series Predictions’
