July 13th, 2009JeremyLeave a commentGo to comments C:1. Bryce Harper – Las Vegas High SchoolFrom Rob Nyer, in 2008, as a 15-yr. old: Harper has a power bat and a plus throwing arm that “already grades out to 70 on the 20 to 80 scouting scale,” according to Dave Perkin of Baseball America. During infield prior to the game, Harper, in full gear, rifled the ball out of a crouch to second and third base with precision. Upon seeing him in action, I marked down “+ + arm” next to his name in my progra

Where is DianeCA? On Facebook! - (USA)
Hi folks! Some of my friends may be wondering where I have been…I haven’t seemed to be around as much, but aha some of you may have seen me a lot. Where? On Facebook. Yes I confess that I have been quite caught up with the ultimate time waster…facebook. And the source of my demise…I have discovered games. You see I never considered myself much of a good game player. Didn’t have the amazing hand eye coordination of my young sons and didn’t find it interesting to push a button repeatedly in order

Jump to Comments No, seriously Sabres. Where are you hiding? Please come out to play. 6-1 CBJ. Well, that tour of the Arena was really rushed and I’m not going to lie, the lady wasn’t very kind. I didn’t take any pictures on the tour because when people took out their cameras she kind of got all huffy. The second tour guide was cool though. She was very informative. And I’m totally applying to intern in the Harbor Club… Where were you when you heard the news that Barry Melrose was fired? In the

Canucks/Wings Summary Now That I’m More Rested. - (USA)
Jump to Comments When Sami Salo won the game in OT, I cheered so loud it was like the Canucks won the Cup. Heh. I think I might have spilled my drink all over myself as well. I LOVE this team so much! Sure, they got outshot by the Wings, and outplayed in the first period, but damn. They smoked them in OT and that’s what counts. To be honest with you, I thought the game was over when Datsyuk scored with three minutes left in the third, but this year’s team just doesn’t quit. The defence was

In fact, all but two of the eight finalists in Beijing would have beaten Carl Lewis. This doesn’t take anything away from Lewis. But it tell

Free Speech Friday: May 8 - (USA)
In response to “A party and a protest,” by Michael Truong, April 30: The Palestinian claims of genocide and ethnic cleansing at the hands of Israel are fabrications. In 1948, the Arab population in the British Mandate of Palestine was around 1.2 million people. Today, there are roughly 5.2 million Arabs in the same geographic region, comprising of Israel and the Palestinian territories. When a population increases from 1.2 million to 5.2 million people, it is impossible to claim that genocide
