I wonder if I'll ever see the Heisman Trophy ever described as "the MAC Hermann Trophy of football".

Maybe not until they lose the crystal ball and come up with a cool pose.

Is anyone else finding it hard to get excited about the draft with the potential lockout looming???

Nope. I can worry and be excited at the same time. I'm pretty much an expert at it.

I'm excited for the draft, but the looming labour problems are like storm clouds rolling in from a distance...

Since it doesn't affect me right now & there's nothing I can do about it, I'll worry about the labour shit if/when it happens...

I'm trying to stay positive, God knows as a Toronto sports fan I've had decades of experience staying positive during bad times...

Carts...

I was suprised to see that Mariner had taken over at Plymouth. They did well for a spell two years ago, but have struggled lately. I'm not sure this pair will be able to keep Argylle out of League One (and a return to the Devon derby now that Exeter are back up), but they may find a way to bounce back up the year after that.

be interesting to see what happens with Argyle.

They have new ownership, Roy Gardner (formerly chairman of Man U) has taken over, a new kit deal with Adidas that is the most lucrative deal they've ever had and they have a stadium plan to expand to 46,000 as part of the World Cup bid.

The problem was they kept Sturrock around too long (should have canned him last year).

They are in a pretty deep hole and probably won't escape this year. But will be an interesting team to watch this off season.

That just means he'll quit six games into next season.

Happens when you follow any Toronto sports team I suppose.

You worry that all your hope will be let down...because you know that's how the world works. :picard:
