SEC fans don't need to practice, like breathing, it just comes natural to us. Besides, we do it all year long, not just in the fall.

He will play this year. Didn't atlanta peace out their backup anyways? I think the jury is still out on if Vick sees a snap this season or not. I don't see the NFL lifting their suspension (or ban if that's what they want to call it) until after the trial. Say the trial is over by the midpoint of t...

Garry?? honest?? if Aaron had played for the Giants all those years.. do you think He gets the same amount? If he had played for the Giants, Hank would have still hit 715, but I don't know if he would have gotten 755. The altitude here in Atlanta, plus the air movements in the old ballpark, had to ...

This week would be a good time for him to visit. Schools in that area, and around a good bit of Alabama, started today, so the biggest crush of vacationers left on Sunday. I was in GS this past weekend for a wedding and left Sunday morning, stopped at Lulu's for lunch. The place was as packed at 11:...

I think, seriously, that the 3 other major sports in the United States should all be run exactly like the NFL. No guranteed contracts, no cheating . . . salary caps, etc. That would be wonderful, but it will never happen. Baseball has already shown it is powerless against the players union. Selig i...

I so fondly remember sitting in a dorm lounge in 1974 watching Aaron hit his record breaker. Not so fond of tonight :( Agreed, on both counts. (although I was still at home in 1974, not yet in college...) Bonds is a good ballplayer, as much as I dislike him, but he doesn't deserve this..... it's ta...

so Alabama chose the nautical "I need assistance" flag for their state flag? Interesting... More than "I need assistance" it is the cross of St. Andrew which is also seen on the Confederate Battle Flag with a different color scheme. A true cross of St. Andrew is a blue backgroun...

OK I'm not sure this is kept as a record but it may well be the greatest.. the record for most cycles hit for in a lifetime.. The record isn't that high, 3 career cycles, and it is held by amazingly enough 3 players. Bob Meusel did it in the AL three times for New York; Babe Herman did it 3 times i...

A Pirate Looks at 40 - a "Flying Dutchman" style ride.

The Bama Breeze - an interactive hurricane simulator like the Twister show at Universal.

Boats to Build - interactive computer based game with touch screens where keets can "build and sail" their own sailboats/schooners/etc.

I hate getting rid of a young pitcher who throws 95, especially when we already have a serviceable utility infielder in Miguel Cairo. Is Betemit going to be the 3rd Baseman of the future if A-Rod opts out of his contract??? Potentially. He was very a very highly regarded prospect with the Braves, b...

I dunno what the people were smoking when they made this list, but come on... I don't really have a problem with the top 4, but I think you have to have something by Hank Sr. in the top 5. I don't understand Hope You Dance at #28, unless it was picked because it became a crossover hit. It was a good...

I think there are several greatest records just for baseball, but I can't pick one out of this group. DiMaggio's hitting streak. I don't see that ever being broken for several reasons. Cal Jr's streak should rank up there. True, there were times when it would have benefitted the O's if he had sat ou...
