    2008 Washington Huskies

    QB Jake Locker was taken by the LA Angels, with the 321st pick in the MLB draft. The Angels apparently are intent on signing the powerful centerfielder by the deadline. http://mlb.mlb.com/news/article.jsp?ymd=20090610&content_id=5253416&vkey=news_ana&fext=.jsp&c_id=ana&partnerId=rss_ana

    Toby Gerhart

    Nice DraftDaddy quote on Toby. I reeeeeeally like DD's commentary and opinions. Quite fair and balanced. RB Toby Gerhart, Stanford -- First Stanford running back to rush for over 1,000 yards since 1991. Would be a legit Heisman candidate if he went to a top 25 program and focused only on...

    Sabby Piscitelli, S

    Good article about Tampa's faith in Sabby. Hopefully it isn't a load of BS. http://www.tampabay.com/sports/football/bucs/article1005065.ece

    Kevin Curtis

    Unfortunately, I do believe Curtis will find himself as the slot/3rd receiver in Philadelphia this season. I think the Jeremy Maclin pick was to satiate the fans who wanted a "big time playmaker". Having two of the fastest starting receivers in the league was not good enough for them, I guess...

    2009 NFL Draft

    Jaguars signing a bizarre amount of white players after the draft, hardly par for the course. What's the deal?

    2009 NFL Draft

    Welcome to the boards, Beach goer! Nice first post too. I'm glad that Camarillo has become a "fan favorite" in Miami. It's always refreshing to hear that white players are not always treated with the animosity only reserved for...well, white players. When it comes to Jacob Hester, the...

    2009 NFL Draft

    The Birds drafted Jeremy Maclin in the first round to "add explosiveness" that they "didn't possess from their starters last season". I think we all know what that's Caste-speak for.

    2009 NFL Draft

    I think the Eagles are going to take a run at Caste Team of the Year this season. Curtis is no longer a starter. Celek's job is in jeopardy. Runyan is gone, replaced by a sumo. I only see two whites as locks for starting positions, MLB Stewart Bradley and OG Todd Herremans. Maybe Celek to make...

    2009 NFL Draft

    Perhaps bad news for Brad Hoover, as the Panthers take Tony Fiammetta, FB from Syracuse.

    2009 NFL Draft

    No, he's currently listed as the third best available TE.

    2009 NFL Draft

    Third WR drafted by the Dolphins, assuming Pat White will primarily be a wideout. I'm assuming bad news for Greg Camarillo.

    2009 NFL Draft

    Yeah, I think you're right. Nevermind. Scouts, Inc. now has Nate Davis as their 4th best QB available, behind Brian Hoyer (Michigan St.), Rhett Bomar (Sam Houston St.), and Stephen McGee (Texas A&M). Progress!

    MLB's best athletes?

    Let's give this a shot, eh? In no particular order: 1. Jayson Werth, OF, Philadelphia Werth is the type of "long and athletic" player associated with basketball. At 6'5", he has speed to burn in the outfield, and stole 20 bases last season. Being a right fielder, he also has a terrific arm...

    2009 MLB Season

    Yankees' RF/1B Nick Swisher pitched one inning in relief against the Rays last night. He walked one, gave up one hit, and struck out Gabe Kapler before retiring the next two batters to end the inning. New York lost 15-5. Swisher was the first Yankee position player to pitch since Wade Boggs (who...

    Link to the story. A terrible tragedy. My prayers go out to his family. I can't imagine how tough it must be to lose a family member so senselessly. Just 22 years old...
