So Much For Parity In Pro Sports

Long Snapper Mike Bartrum Officially Retired Today 

The AFC rules in football.  The Western Conference rules in basketball.  And the American League rules in baseball.  Despite the leagues trying to achieve parity.  Clearly the leagues haven't been successful. Flat Phillies Hammered By Indians We haven't seen Hamels roughed up like that all year long.  What about those American League lineups?  They're tremendous.  We've seen the Tigers and the Indians, but what about the Red Sox and Yankees.  

 

I think the Phillies should be run like a football team, with Charlie Manuel is the head manager, who basicallly serves as a figure head during the game and delegates all the decisions to his assistants.  That way, he can keep the players in good spirits but not making any boneheaded mistakes to cost them games.  We'll even give him a couple of cards to hold so it looks like he knows what's going on.  I'm just kidding but I think he's got to be wise enough to know what are his strengths and weaknesses.

A lot of people wanted to get rid of Aaron Rowand at the beginning of the year but he's had a great first half of the year.  He's played well enough to be an all-star:   Phillies Report: Stats Say Rowand Is An All Star.

Rich Hofmann: Pacman's NFL Career Could Wind Up In Ruins – What's the deal with Pacman Jones?  You've got to be kidding.  The dude is suspended for hanging out at these strip joints, so what does he do?  He hangs out at a strip joint until 4 in the morning and has his buddies get in a gunfight.  This dude could be looking at his NFL career in the rear view mirror.

Levar Arrington Seriously Injured In Motorcycle Accident: At hospitals they call motorcycles, donorcycles because of the way they tear people up.  Levar hasn't shown very much wisdom in his NFL career so it's not a major surprise that he would be out on a motorcycle. 

Congratulations to Tiger Woods for becoming a Dad on the day after Father's Day.  Wood's Wife Gives Birth To Daughter
