Unless I overlooked it somewhere, PRECIOUS VALENTINE hasn't been mentioned anywhere. The kid was an absolute wrecking machine on Oakland's '08 championship team. Plus he probably has the best name of all time.. I'll put Golden Tate and Orleans Darkwa in this category as well, but as honorable mention. Many good backs in Tn recently but my vote goes to "The Love Train", Precious Valentine

The man you need to speak with is E5. . He is a master of trickeration, tomfoolery and the like. E5, please enlighten these folks. CC

I have a concern and several questions can anyone explain why oakland's running backs are so undisciplined? all they want to do is "tip toe" instead of hitting the hole i heard from a good source that during practice while other positions are working on their skills, the runnings backs were asked to weed eat the practice field. can anyone add to this?

Slyde piece... welcome back your idea sounds like a good one. i have a few suggestions. 1. look to expand your products to accomodate folks of E5's stature. (in case you haven't seen him in a while, he looks like what i see when i stand in front of the fun house mirror... and not the tall skinny one.) 2. benches and buckets are just to tall for him. two years ago he got a concussion after trying to run to coach 3rd.. he hit his head on the bat-@@@@ - turns out both legs were purple from lack of blood flow. 3. whats your plan to remedy the "swampiness" that can be created from prolonged sitting? CC

He plays the spoons and washboard (picture dwight yoakam's band on sling blade). I hate to hear about your burrito mishaps. I'm sure its difficult for a man of your stature to find a suitable commode. You still having that problem with your legs turning blue, or have you found a solution? Maybe you should sit on the tank and rest you feet on the bowl. Mumbly peg and lawn darts have been outlawed. I've been told the best new game is cornhole. Dont know much about it, but it sounds interesting. Let me know what you find. CC

I assume the reasoning for this is less transition time as the player gets older? This makes alot of sense to me. Last I heard of Slyder he was considering getting out of scouting to persue a musical career. CC

drills? sure... here's one. practice this and i'll post more later. 1. go behind the outfield fence to throw from the #6 slot. have pitchers go through their complete delivery then throw under the gopher holes in the fence. (caution) do not attempt this during bp. we lost our starting bucket man last year due to an arrant throw.

ok, i have a few ideas -but first i must remind you what pitching is all about.... trickeration and strategery. catcher signs- dont use 'em. all theyre good for is getting picked anyway. my 7 and under travel ball team played 108 games last summer and never used signs. we just let the pitcher throw what he wants and let the catcher adjust. our ace won 28 games... enough said arm angles- here's where we pull away from the crowd. we have all pitchers use a minimum of 5 arm angles on each pitch. so instead of you're standard 7 pitches, we have a minimum of 35. bullpens - we have done away with... instead we play an hour of dodge ball with a specific pitch with tennis balls. we push the cages back, dump out a bucket of tennis balls and go at it. glider day is especially beneficial new pitches - i heard of a man throwing a sidearm screw ball. never got the man's name, but i think the pitch was called "the foutch"

Richard Simmons

i heard that he was going through a very difficult, and expensive "body lengthening" surgery. apparently he got tired of looking like he was standing in front of a fun house mirror. cc

Help you out? The best advice I can give you sir.. pull you lip over your head and swallow.

It is my recomendation that you read your post, then read your quote several times. Maybe you'll laugh like I did

i am officially starting a crusade to have riverdaleman removed from the "t". no one in alabama would stand for public criticism of bear bryant, and i'm not going to tolerate anyone to criticizing one of the greatest minds of our time.. cc

let me clarify. r-man i'm not accusing you of anything. its e-5 who is the culprit. its nothing for him to stuff a couple "value meals" into the helmet bag, then devour them during pregame. he has also been known to miss a first pitch because his legs are asleep from sitting on john for too long.
