If not there are plenty of other nice shoes to choose from that look nice. [/quote] If they can afford it is they key.  What about those that can't and have to rob, steal, and even kill to get them?  Is it irresposible of LeBron to allow Nike to make a shoe that expensive? There are plenty of shoes that are way more expensive than these, but their target consumer isn't 10-25 yr olds with not much money.

Nederland really, really needs some turf on that field.  Maybe we can get Smitty to put up his house, since we can't get a bond passed.  :D

[Hidden Content] Alright, who's camping out to get their hands on these?

I love football as much as anyone, but no way in He'll I would ever put up my home as colateral on new field turf for my high school!!!  Idiots! [Hidden Content]

Nice win for Uganda in a consolation game over Oregon

I just watched the piece on the team from Uganda. They are the first team from Africa to ever make it to the LLWS.  Listening to their stories and experiences is what LL and sports in general are all about.  It was pretty awesome so see how some of the other teams have taken to them and wanted to help.

I know they backed up the fences 25 feet a few years ago, but does something else need to be done?  It seems like there are 5 or 6 homeruns every game I have watched.  Does Little League need to take notes from College & HS and go to a BBCOR type bat?

The Astros should sign him.  At least he would put some butts in those empty seats.

He's 50!!!  Maybe he found another "fountain of youth" that the MLB doesn't know about yet.  :D [Hidden Content]

[Hidden Content] I guess he didn't like the umpire

The 6'3" kid for California strokes the baseball.  He's 6-7 with 2 bombs in their 2 games so far.

This is always fun to watch.  There have been some good games so far. Who wins?

[quote name="19bulldog88" post="1247309" timestamp="1345390345"] Promoted their AAA manager to interim. Tony DeFrancesco [Hidden Content] [/quote] He shouldn't have much trouble making out the lineup today.  He has coached everyone on the team except Altuve, Bogey, & Tyler Green already this year. 

I went to the game last night.  The entire starting lineup for that game had 31 homeruns this season combined!  It's hard for anyone to win games with team full of minor leaguers.

[quote name="Mr. Buddy Garrity" post="1246509" timestamp="1345252594"] Is the back-up QB as good as Raines for NED? [/quote] Sage Seay is starting at db as a sophomore and will probably be the QB the next 2 years.  From my understanding he hasn't seen any snaps at QB in practice.

[quote name="football04" post="1246285" timestamp="1345225874"] This "game" I mean scrimmage should draw a good crowd at bulldog stadium tonight with PNG being off and them facing WOS in a few weeks and Nederland down the road. [/quote] I had free tickets and a ride to the Astros game.  I would bet the attendance of these games would be pretty close.  I should have went to the football game. 

[Hidden Content] That's kinda crap.  He shouldn't be eligible after taking PED's

[Hidden Content] Some of these rules are ridiculous!  Should the PGA relax some of these rules?

[quote name="bullets13" post="1244689" timestamp="1344905634"] i can kinda understand not having a couple of sports that are almost predominantly american.  baseball and softball are played consistently in what, 10% of the countries in the world? [/quote] The World Baseball Classic started in 2005 with 16 teams and has now expanded to 28 teams for 2013.  This tourney includes MLB players and has never been won by the USA.  Japan won both times it has been played with the United State's best finish being 4th in 2009.  Half of the players in the Majors don't speak English, so I'm not sure how the sport is predominatly American.  [Hidden Content] The Olypics started to include baseball as a medal sport in 1992 only allowing amateurs to compete.  USA won a gold in 2000 and a bronze medal in 1996 & 2008.  Cuba won 3 out of the 5 gold medals.

[/quote] No, but they were kinda hot about 10 years ago.  Now they don't even have that going for them.

Spice Girls are absolutely horrible!  They should have stayed retired

He was unbelievable with the putter today.  Only fitting that he made that last one.

That makes 4 full years now that Tiger hasn't won a major.  He has been in contention, but just can't finish them out like he has in the past.
