Sports Talk!! Part 4

Dopey Edwards was arrested today.

How sad about the Bronco WR shooting himself.

Patriots lost Kevin Faulk in the Jets game--knee. It will keep him out all year & one of the worst things that could happen. Yea for ESPN, I get to see the Packers next Monday. It is tough living so far away.

How did you become a Packers fan, Iris? Well, the Mets have been officially eliminated....I knew that after the All-Star Break!

Grew up in Wisconsin. This is my 67th year.

surprised goddell has not stepped in and suspended "doppey edwards" .

Me too. And how dumb for the other two to get in the car with him!

two others were with him? only saw the head line.

Yes - forgot which two geniuses.

hey they are jets - go figure........

Leave it to the Italians!! Maybe they can field a team of fake players too.

Yeah, that's kind of dumb....maybe the Mets will borrow that idea, however....it's about all they can find to populate the stands......

For Jet news, I no longer check the sports news. I check the police blotter.

check this out - fireman ed the jet fan is in trouble

could passionate jet fan victorgardener be next??? :)

I love fireman Ed!!!! Man is that Giants fan a wuss or what??? he's pressing charges for that??? of course they didn't show the entire beginning of the fight

all giant fans are wusses - so says this cowboy fan :)

^_^

Yes, that is a joke.

Wow!

Let us hope that he doesn't injure his arm, shoulder etc. like the kid from the Washington Nationals did.

Yes.

wow that's fast!

Hope they only use him in short relief......he'll be having arm woes with a longer pitch count.....

Reports the Mets are ditching the GM and Manuel. Great!! GM dump is long overdue.

you ny'ers - he was great when he was signing pedro

All downhill from there! (Except for Santana.) He's horrible. Look what they spent and what they got. Bringing back Perez was the last straw for me. The guy is a BUM.

I agree wholeheartedly! Glad to see both depart.....there's talent on the team, someone needs to get it together.....

BUM is definitely a ny term :)

Don't expect instant success no matter who comes. Fans can be silly.

No one's expecting instant success. I doubt I'll have to wait as long as Sox fans had to.

Today's Army game was entertaining - especially if you like offense because there was NO defense - against the rush in particular.

your kids will talk to you about the mets WS win in 70 years or so.................:)

Hee hee - we'll see.

Another sport At 1 pm on NBC the jumping event from the 3 day eventing team. US in 2nd place at the moment. Watch some of it instead of baseball or football. something not seen very often.

Heard a penalty call at the game today I never heard before. Temple was flagged for having two players on the field at the same time wearing the same number!

Weird.....wish I could have seen the jumping, Iris....I like that sport, not that I know much about it.....

TV of jumping is at 1 pm tomorrow--NBC

Jets rolled over the Bills today.

It was nice at the Army game yesterday to see them take a moment and honor the academic standouts in the corps. They donned green t-shirts that read, 'Scholar Among Scholars'. Love to see that. I wish all schools would put academic stars at least on par with athletic stars.

It would be nice....our high school scholar athletes are honored every year in the paper, but not just the scholars...well, they are....they're the scholarship winners. Thanks for the info, Iris......didn't watch anything today...houseful of relatives!

So we're set - Yanks vs. Twins, Rays vs. Rangers, Giants vs. Braves and Reds vs. Phillies.

Any predictions? Favorites?

I am rooting for Twins, Rays, Giants and Reds. Have a feeling the Yanks will win. Phils too.

Why should Yanks win? Twins have been playing well all yr & have home field advantage.
