Yeah, actually the only reason I didn't mention the Wolves is because they are minor league. All of the minor league baseball teams around here do a great job of PR and entertainment as well.
Clark has no chance and the Dem's know it. That is why they never really pushed him for the nomination. They guy has been in public agreeing with the tax-cuts and agreeing with our reasons for war in Iraq, not lately but before he became a possible canditiate. He would be cannon-fodder for the GOP machine.
As of yesterday, there are no other Democratic canditiates besides Dean. Gore's endorsement ended any hope for anyone else. The other 8 running for the nomination just might as well fall into the party line.
The match up is much more effective at the collegate level because of the difference in athleticism and basketball IQ. In HS the zone is mostly played to rest players or protect someone in foul trouble, so people just stand in their little area. At the college level you have to hustle and adjust to what the other defenders have openned up trying to cover spots and players.
So a guy who got kicked off of the team and out of the school is giving a jailhouse confession to take down his former program... yeah that sounds trustworthy.
Lloyds of London will only insure a pitchers contract for 3 years, and many players they set $ amounts that they won't insure above that number. IIRC most of the ARod contract is uninsured.
The 7th is for players who are unrestriced free agents. The 20th is for players who haven't got to free agency, but will become free agents if their teams don't offer them arbitration.
