Ty Cobb

It will be huge if they can take the 1st game in tampa.  Go RANGERS!!!

[quote name="beechnut" post="1071621" timestamp="1317526620"] You cant help but shed a tear when you see that on tv. Is there a better man in MLB than Josh Hamilton? What a great story he is and role model. [/quote] If you are a Josh Hamilton fan or if you are just moved by his story, be sure and get a copy of his book.  He tells everything in the book.  From his childhood days, his journey through professional baseball, his drug addiction days, and then his return to MLB.  I couldn't put the book down.  Great read.

[quote name="adminbaberuth" post="1069918" timestamp="1317421200"] [img][Hidden Content]] Cooper Stone, 6, tosses the ceremonial first pitch to Texas Rangers left fielder Josh Hamilton (32) before Game 1 of baseball's American League division series playoffs on Friday, Sept. 30, in Arlington, Texas. It was Hamilton who threw the ball Shannon Stone was reaching for when he fell to his death behind the outfield wall in July. [/quote] I realize that it took a tradgey for this young man to throw out the 1st pitch, but the picture puts a smile in my heart.  Some things in this world are still good and this picture is one of them!!!

I believe the RANGERS win this series in 4 games.

Poor guy.  He does what 100% of fans, sitting in his position, would have done and his life changes forever. 

I'm getting pretty nervous about the RANGERS chances of resigning C J Wilson after the season ends.  I really wish he would sign an entension!!!

I'll take the lions by 2 TD's.

I'm taking the falcons.

I would love to see the TEXAS RANGERS get back to the World Series and win it this year!!!  Last year was nice, but I want it all!!!

I have no problem with seniors playing on JV.  In most cases the head coach will reward his players, as long as they have been a part of the program, by putting them on varsity for their senior year.  But there are times that the senior may choose to be on the JV team in order to get more playing time.  There is nothing wrong with this.  Some kids would rather play the game instead of standing on the sidelines every Friday night. 

Going to go with Kountze.

I'll be pulling for Livingston.

I'll take the Panthers!!!

I like the 7:00 start times.  Gets the kids and the coaches home a little earlier.

I'm 100% for full contact/full speed practice.  You can't ask a young man to go half speed in practice then go full speed in a game.  You can't ask a young man to pull up in practice then ask him to make a tackle in a game.  Treat Monday-Wednesday practice like a game situation, then have a light practice or walk through on Thursday.

I hope this doesn't happen.  It will take away any chance of having an all TEXAS World Series.  Does anyone have an idea of why MLB is pushing for this?  Why not put the yankees and mets in the same division?  Or how about the california area teams? 

Does this mean the AL West will consist of 5 teams or will one of the existing teams be moved as well?

I'll take the Wildcats from Splendora.

Won't look very good after a few years of sun on it.  Red turns pink when it fades.
