I totally missed this group in my youth. Great sound. Not so impressed with the lead singer, however.

Sorry, the LTE form is closed at this time.

Trent Dilfer did it, too, of course, so I guess anything is possible. But it would have to be a team that was totally dominant in every other possible way.

I dunno. If Brad Johnson was capable, why not Gus … of what? Brad Johnson, Super Bowl champion at age 34. His career playoff record as a starting QB was 4-3 (3-0 in 2002). I guess

Now, if a team signs him they'll have to give up two #1 picks (which won't happen). I'm sure it's just to buy some time to make sure Brady recovers and then trade Cassell.

Not to make excuses for Jackson (he was dreadful), but the right side of the O-line appears to be completely porous. That's why a statue like Frerotte isn't the answer, either.

that's crazy. What, are they going to Earl Battey Tom Brady??

I hear the Patriots have franchised Cassell.

Dodgers may be working on deal to unload Andruw Jones

by brianS Respond: Be First

so says TJ Simers .

My favorite bit, which I assume is tongue-in-cheek:

The Giants would become overnight favorites to win the NL West with Ramirez and the pitching staff they have already assembled.

As for the Dodgers, no worries, they would still have Juan Pierre to fill Ramirez's shoes in left field.

A Breath of Fresh Air

Smoking ban leads to major drop in heart attacks according to a new study published by the Centers for Disease Control's Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report. This was basically a case-control study, comparing heart attack rates in Pueblo, CO to two control sites (Pueblo County outside the city limits; and El Paso County, which includes Colorado Springs).

Fuentes Signs With LAAAAAAA

by ubelmann Respond: 3 LTEs

2 years, $17.5M, reportedly, with options and stuff, plus they give up a first-round pick to Colorado. Last year, league average ERA for a relief pitcher was 4.09. Marcel the Monkey projects Fuentes to have a 3.69 FIP next year. Probably an overpay, but there's plenty of upside.
