Voting open for O'Brien Award - stuff ballot box for Reesing

Voting is open for the Davey O'Brien award, so get out there and vote (vote Reesing!) if you are registered. If you're not registered, why the hell not? Register, then vote Reesing daily!

Todd is in 9th place currently, well behind (surprise) Colt McShipley, and is even lagging behind Navy's QB!! Navy?? Really? Really? Is Staubach in college?

Being Todd Reesing

Not a Pulitzer-winning piece, but this is a great collection of Reesing anecdotes. I remember the piece from last year where the Journal World's "On The Street" reporter didn't know who Todd was when he asked the question about faith in KU football. Priceless.

Sprint Training Haiku

The long-awaited day drives me to wax in rhapsodic haiku:

The five sweetest words
Pitchers and catchers report
Ringing in my ears

Every season is filled with promise and "Wait 'til next year" begins today. New faces in new places, rookies and NRIs look to make splashes, and, with gratitude to Jake Taylor, vets get the chance to have that "one last season in the sun".

Avast ye scabbers dogs!!

Given that today, September 19, is "International Talk Like A Pirate Day", use the random name generator to create yer own pirate prospect list.

Hence, a throw-it-against-the-wall example list:

Justin Upton, ye now be known as "Fineglin' Gus Cooke"
Jay Bruce, aka, "Cap'n Brant Buttwipe"
Colby Rasmus, ye be "Syphilitic Jude Sparrow"
