Thank You Mr. Lupica

During this morning's "Sports Reporters" on ESPN, Mike Lupica was really championing Texas' cause and bemoaning the absurdity of the BCS.  He even went so far as to say (quite accurately I might add) that no team has been screwed over more since the inception of the BCS system than Texas.

 

Normally I don't take much stock in a show that refuses to get sports opinions from anyone west of Philly - but I really appreciated someone taking an objective look at things and saying it's just not right.

Josh Hamilton Facts

Since I've been ripping off the Chuck Norris facts for the game-day threads, I thought we could come up with our own Josh Hamilton "facts."

For starters:

* Bud Selig didn't stop the 2002 All Star Game because the managers ran out of pitchers, they got word that Josh Hamilton had changed the channel.

* On the day he was born, Josh Hamilton's line was: .367/.653/1.097.

* Before calling strikes, umpires ask for Josh Hamilton's permission.

* Josh Hamilton once hit a ball over the fence in Anaheim... from Tampa.

Anyone else?
