I have to remember to have my lesson plans adjusted so I can be near my computer screen from 12:10-12:40.
I really like Sam's chances here, by the way.

Sam won the Southeast regional yesterday by 33 seconds. Evans finished 6th, and also qualified for nationals.

There is no question now that a certain kid is gone from Eugene that Sam is the unquestioned favorite in this one. But there is plenty of talent to challenge him.

If you have Direct TV and you think you are going to watch Versus - plan differently. Direct TV has stopped carrying Versus:( Some dispute.

It's funny that as soon as this decision was made, I all of the sudden had this channel on Dish. They think they're so clever.

Getting ready to watch it myself. I am home with a sick 2-year-old who has control of the remote with Maggie and the Ferocious Beat right now. I believe she is due for a nap ...

The favorite for the race is only a sophmore. He could handle getting cramped up and having to wait 2 more years.

Sammy is taking his time much moreso than last year when he sprinted ahead of everyone not named Rupp.
