Well Done Vernon!

It's great to see Vernon Wells reupping with the Jays. The price night seem high but with the money being thrown around this winter on free agents Wells will look like a bargain next winter. This is also the price of comepting in the AL East. With the Red Sox and Yanks around you have to be prepared to spend. The Jays now need to really go wild and go after the still unsigned Barry Zito or Mark Mulder. The key to beating the Sox and Yanks has always been left handed pitching and these guys are two of the best.

I went to bed halfway through the thirs quarter of the Rockets-Lakers game Froday night with the Rockets up by about 18. Then Kobe goes nuts, leads a comeback and scores 53 in an overtime win. Shit. Then I decide to skip watching last nights Wizards-Lakers game and Gilbert Arenas goes for 60 and Kobe 45. I'm not skipping another Lakers game this year.

I watched Greg Oden play on Saturday afternoon. He is legit and is going to be an NBA all-star within 2 years. The thing I like about his game most is that he is a true center. He's not one of these 7 footers who wants to take threes and score from the perimeter all day. He just gets the ball on the blocks and knocks his defender on his ass while dunking on him.

I pick the Saints to go to the Super Bowl and then they blow a home game to the 'Skins. The Titans score three defensive touchdowns to beat the Jags a week after the Jags kill the Colts. If anyone can figure out this years NFL please let me know.

The Isiah Thomas farewell tour is just hitting its stride after he no doubt ordered up the foul that lead to the NBA's most recent embarrassing brawl.
