    Baseball Races

    Ok. Here is my question to those that follow baseball. How does a team (the Yankees) hit a grand salami to take a 7-5 lead, then blow that lead and trail 13-7? This is a tense tight race in the East. Actually - all over.

    As I ask the question above, I'm reminded how they blew a 3-0 series lead last year.

    If you can figure that one out, maybe you can tell me how LSU blew a 21-0 halftime lead over Tennessee.

    I almost dropped my teeth when I saw the highlights of that game.

    And people said the wildcard would kill baseball. Take a look at the last 3 world series winners, all wildcards. You gotta love what the "experts" say!!

    That's not funny! That tag should be reserved for Ted Turner's baseball team and Dallas' football team. Besides, I thought you were a Seminoles fan? Speaking of which, whatever happened to "God," their former starting quarterback? Is he still doing pushups in the middle of the street in his underwear?

    Not even close.

    I've hated the Seminoles for 30 odd years...you should try it! It's great!
