Few Notes

The Phillies are back in the World Series. Jimmy Rollins is getting hot and the team looks dangerous. The bullpen issued might be resolved and the only area of concern is that Cole Hamels threw a clunker. He's been pitching a lot better than most people think but he really labored out there last night and couldn't even make it the full five to gut out a win. The Phils are really going to need Lee and Hamels to be at their best to take out the Yanks (or what would be a hot Angels team). With how well they are hitting right now they might just want to root for the Yankees and get this thing underway.

I see Terrelle Pryor's high school coach said Ohio St. needs to let him run more. Thank you. What in the world are the buckeyes doing? Pryor does look like a robot. Yeah, Ohio St. has a winning formula which is more of a pro style offense than most college teams...but you have a player who could be one of the best in the nation and he doesn't fit that system. QB's who can run and move around to buy time are king in college football. Loosen the reigns and let him win you games.

Very alarming news coming out of the SEC - They have suspended the entire officiating crew from the Florida-Arkansas game after a personal foul was called as Florida rallied late for the win, apparently there is no video evidence for this foul. This is not the first time this has happened with this crew either, apparently a very similar call was made during the LSU-Georgia game earlier this month.

The crew won't be back until mid-November and probably won't be doing any post-season games. Arkansas head coach Bobby Petrino handled this issue with much class and isn't making any excuses. He said their focus is on Ole Miss.

  1. I was watching when they called the personal foul. It was terrible. A lineman for Florida was about to lower his shoulder into an Arkansas lineman after the play was already past them down the field. But the Arkansas lineman just got his shoulder lower and the Florida pussy went flying or flopped. It was a joke of a call. The guy was about to get hit so he just lowered his shoulder to defend himself. The pass interference call before that was equally as bad. There wasnt even any contact made.
