LINSANITY

This Jeremy Lin story is really amazing. He has become New York's biggest story in the matter of weeks. This is what i love about sports. That any moment an unknown athlete can rise up and become an international sensation. The only thing i don't like about the situation is how much ESPN will play out this story. Once they get something good they run with it and then its the only thing they talk about. Don't get me wrong, its a great story but don't play it out and make everyone sick of the kid. He is too good of a story for that.

Burnett to the Bucs!

I have been a Pirates fan all of my life and have been waiting for a winning season since i was born. Im excited that the Pirates finally got the AJ Burnett deal done because i think it will help us in the pursuit of that winning season. I think he is a solid 1 or 2 starter and is going to do much better now that he is in the National League. With him along with Jeff Karstens, James McDonald, Charlie Morton, and either Kevin Correia or Eric Bedard, i think we'll have a solid rotation and improve on last years early season success. I really hope that this is finally the year for the buccos!!!
