Like baseball a lot of time and money is being poured into getting blacks and hispanics playing tennis. The hype machine is in full gear as the Williams sisters success has managed to do two things at once. Chill out white female American players and increase black numbers. There is a five year...

Just saw his name listed in post and because I didn't buy a college football mag this year--budget--I am forgetting a lot of guys.. Brandon Erwin a safety for Purdue has great speed and looked good when I saw him last year. Only a sophmore!!

Excellent thread and thanks Jared.. Criddle the BYU CB intrigues me and I love the way Nebraska LB Corey Mckeon plays. Keep an eye on UCONN soph WR Brad Kanuch. He is fast and could make some noise this year.

Since white speedsters are disappearing from MLB faster then you can say NFL the Red Sox have a speedster in their farm system. But in typical modern day sports wouldn't you know the guy is a pitcher. He runs a legitimate 4.32 40 yard dash and is a live wire athlete. He is in Triple A now and...

Side note--Barry Bonds--why is everyone getting worked up? To me the worst aspect of baseball is the future which is beginning to resemble football in the way certain positions are becoming virtually whiteless. And there are countless more Barry Bonds types ready to explode--ie: the Upton...

Looks to be a better than average group if things fall into place. Some second rounders to keep an eye on include: Josh Heytvelt-6-8-athletic Joe Alexander-6-8-leaper Luigi Datome-6-8-very quick and explosive Nenad Mijatovic-6-3--great speed Trent Plaisted- 6-10-good vertical Milenko...

Whitey vs. black in both men and women. Black UK Yearwood vs. German Julien Reus. And women black from Norway--man does that get me - how many friggen blacks are in Norway but this one is their key sprinter I hate that--Oka something vs. Inna Eftimova of Bulgaria. Results very soon.

Strange the whole thing. I am not one of those touchy feely animal lover types but man we are talking sadistic stuff--perhaps a couple of strides away from serial killer territory. The media made it a point--lets count the # of SI covers for starters shall we--to place this guy on a pedestal...

Which is why patience is a virtue--in this case one and a half years.

Look up this blonde babe Russian who won the LJ at the recent Youth Championships. MERCY!!!!!

4th down offense thats what I'm talking about--OK that one made me laugh. Still I think the guy will be fun and remember he becomes a defensive player after the ball is punted if that helps the matter.

Fine a Beckham-soccer- cover but timing is the key..Federer is coming off one of the best and most important matches in Wimbledon history and it is relegated to the sidelines. You wouldn't know it by SI but the Federer-Nadal battle ranks near the top of all time duals--take your...

One of the mroe interesting story lines will be the Jags. You have caste favorite Matt Jones who should only get better and punter Adam Podlesh a punter with 4.4 speed. His Maryland coach was thinking of plugging him in at WR but the Jags are ready to turn him into an offensive weapon with fake...

This guy is turning heads. He is around 6'8" and is scaring people with his leaping ability and explosive athleticism. Think Chase Budinger but with more explosion. A bit raw and unrefined still the big boys like Duke and others are starting to salivate. The kid is Polish..

Well lookee here. Si has a white foreign athlete on the cover who is not part of the three--make that four--(NHL) major sports in the USA> Great Federer finally made the cover------wait there is a bitty picture of him --(sharing equal space with Venus W) the real cover star is David...

I don't get ESPN classic but I did tape the final three sets of the epic. I should have taped entire thing. It was a monumental moment in sports and is already an historic match!!!!!!! The athleticism and skill on display was so mind boggling that it made other sports look pedestrian by...

Alex Lauricella a top sprinter from Louisiana signed with Tulane.

The Venus win stings but she dominated and Bartoli who I have seen play in person was game but was overwhelmed. As for Federer the SI watch starts---lets see what "important" story might be on the cover this week--an inside report on Kevin Garnett trade rumours or a Jose Reyes worship piece or...

Lets put this not enough "black americans " in baseball to the test. You want black players OK lets increase the total of black pitchers and catchers by the truckload. Say 6-8 total per team on average. But lets reduce the number of CF's and SS's to zero starters. Sounds like a fair trade off...

JC that would be Heytfelt. If he is returning to Gonzaga to play that is good news which is news to me.. He will go high in 2008 if what you say is correct.

TS to the guy. If he was say an outfielder I would be fine with it but going pitcher on us --what good does he do the caste? And he was warned here by several people that it was a bad move.

A typical drone like draft Jay Bilas--man that guy gets under my skin. Nothing to get too excited about. Next year we will have Chase B and Alex Schved from Russia to name two athletic guys. I think Haluska has an upside and so does McRoberts. Both need polish. Too bad that kid from Gonzaga has...

MLB is becoming more and more like the NFL in makeup. Each year despite the media crying that not enough blacks are playing more and more of the top high school outfielders especially at CF are black. And add in some Black/Latinos. Don't be fooled by the numbers. Blacks avoid pitching and...

I agree JC,Hulbert has SERIOUS speed. Hope he gets playing time.

From famed Soutlake Carroll, class of 2008 comes another speed merchant. Ran the fastest time at a Texas camp recently. 5'10--180 ran a 4.3 with a 40" vertical. He is listed as a --take a wild guess-- free safety.
