Longoria's AK-47, Canseco2, Weather Fales

When a standout high school player transfers to a nearby school, I usually hear from a number of different people about why it happened. I just always hope the move is what's best for the kid, and what the kid really wants. There are a lot of over-involved parents, coaches, and "advisers" these days...

Cornerback Shaun Prater is one of Iowa's Rhabdo 13. Prater says he knows on the outside, hearing players were in the hospital for nearly a week sounds bad. Yes, it does. Fortunately Prater and the others are reportedly doing fine...

Rusty Wallace is the face of the Iowa Speedway, and he couldn't be better at his job. I interviewed him twice Wednesday, and both times Wallace had me ready to buy season tickets. And I don't even need them...

Evan Longoria brought an AK-47 to spring training? He called the assault rifle a  personal item, which makes it sound like a toothbrush...

Matt Painter insulted Purdue by flirting so openly with Missouri, but hey, it worked. Painter cashed in and got what he wants...

I still don't care about the Barry Bonds trial...

And I still can't believe Jose Canseco had the nerve to send his twin brother Ozzie in his place to fight, and Ozzie asked for the payment in cash. I also can't believe someone offered Canseco 5K...

Opening Day is here. I hope Andy took his snow shoes to Cleveland...

My AK-47 *is* a "personal item"! LOL They're one of the best rifles out there...
You can bury them in mud, dig them out, and they'll still fire almost 100%!!

Ok, I'm done with my gun lesson ;-)

Have a great rest of the week!
