Sen. Ted Cruz says if each of his supporters can find nine friends to vote for him in North Carolina’s presidential primary on Tuesday, he can overcome Republican front-runner Donald Trump.
the relevant part is whether you have nine friends in North Carolina. I'm sure we can find nine wgomers who would gladly be labeled your friends. 🙂
How is it that Michigan State won the BIG tournament, is ranked number 2 in the country, and ends up a number 2 seed? I haven't followed college hoops at all this year, but I don't get that.
Oregon? Seriously?
(in the Sagarin rankings, Michigan State is number 2 and Oregon is...15th. And yet they get a number 1 seed? Huh?)
Let's never forget the screwjob of 2006 when GW was ranked #9 and then got an 8-seed.
Oh, and the committee still hates the A10 as St. Bonaventure was the 2nd team ever to have a top-30 RPI and not get in, while Syracuse has a worse resume (to be fair, they did win h2h, but still...) and are a bunch of cheaters and got in. Oh, and then there's Tulsa... The Tulsa AD is close friends with the head of the selection committee.. Oh, and he and gave the head of the selection committee his first job at Missouri. VERY fishy.
Are you saying Missouri is fishy?
Wish I would have seen this earlier today). Saw a dude wearing an O's cap earlier today in a Moab, UT parking lot, and could have messed with him.
From Strib's LEN3: The club was expected to cut more players on Sunday, but decided to wait until Monday morning to do so. As of now, 59 players remain in camp, 19 of them non-roster invites. Head they were going to cut as many as 12 today but will finish today. There was a presentation Sunday morning at the minor league facility that several officials attended that cut into their time.
Head they were going to cut - LEN3 drop the Robbespierrian.
as many as 12 today but will finish today - I think this means up to 12 are cut, but the bloodletting is finally done today.
several officials attended that cut into their time - not sure what to make of this. Reluctant officials??
Four Twins pitchers made appearnaces in a minor league games played on the back fields of the CenturyLink Sports Complex on Sunday.
appearnaces - are you kidding me?
``I think he's seeing the ball better,'' Molitor said. ``Recognition has been better. That is going to be a huge part of how quickly he's gong to be able to develop offensively. Bat speed and all those types of things.
``The better he gets at doing that. we're going to see him begin to fullfill some of the expectations people have for him. He hit that ball very crisply.''
Buxton appeared to made a heady play in the second when he tagged up at second on Joe Mauer's fly ball and took off for second when center fielder Joey Rickard paused before throwing the ball in. Molitor was pleased Buxton made it to third, but felt he should have been more aggressive and had taken off right away..
``I told him, `if he throws you out there, it's a 3-3 game in the second,' '' Molitor said. `` `You're trying to advance to third with less than two outs. For me, that's the right play. The guy respected your speed enoight to where he wasn't going to throw it.''
3 missed closed single quotes, missed capitalization, a hacked ellipsis, and two misspelled words (fullfill, enoight) in 4 paragraphs. Crikey.
Editor's week off, I guess.
Wow. I guess the writers need spring training as much as the players do.
[obligatory DST-switching sucks comment]
It could be worse. You could take a 13 year old to the Fall Out Boy concert on the first day of DST.
It's not on my radar anymore because Arizona doesn't have it. If I had worked Sunday, I would've been late.
Will there be a half baked basketball bracket this year?
I'll renew later today.
This time Donald Trump has taken things a step too far!
Trump: We've got to let Pete Rose into the Hall of Fame.
Ok, this made me laugh.
I'm not sure I have nine friends.
