I am actually looking for my next contract now. I am not at SunTrust anymore. I am in on positions at Northrop Gruman, Cap One and Circuit City Corporate. You should come play ball with me on Wed nights at the Cap One headquarters. Very nice courts and I believe those guys are getting a team in a winter league. I might joing but I have to do my TV work then so I won't be at all the games. PM me your number.

Northrup-Gruman has a place out here (or maybe a couple). Also, there's a position open for receiver's coach at UCLA. The current guy is accused of breaking into a house across the street from our church and up 2 or 3. I watched them put one guy in the car and approach the house with guns (that's weapons, for the purists) drawn - there were about eight cop cars. Maybe the position won't be open though, because, according to his attorney, "it appears that a huge mistake was made by the Los Angeles sheriff's deputies."

Anyway, you can always come WEST, young man. Probably easier to get flights into MN or Chicago, or wherever it was that your in-laws live.

Michigan. No man I am definitely an east coast guy but thanks for the invite. I have to get out there and check out my boy Chuck Martin at some point though so maybe I will see you then.

Just to clarify, when Horace Greeley first made that comment, he was talking about Pittsburgh. Also, I'm not so sure that SCAR can still be classified as a "young man" since he is now in his 40s (with Fumble & me). :oldhag

"Greeley supported liberal policies towards settlers; he memorably advised the ambitious to 'Go West, young man.' (Though the phrase was originally written by John Soule in the Terre Haute Express in 1851, it is most often attributed to Greeley." Wik. Enc.

I have a few things to say:

1) Hats off to Cider - I never thought of what "West" was
2) I always loved that western baseball player - Roberto Clemente
3) SCAR, you might want to look up Zach as well as Chuck - we can see them together
4) 40 points on the West Coast is a lot better than 40 points on the East Coast
5) SCAR, If I didn't have 2 prosthetic knees, I'd do you like Bailey did

If that's the best %age, then what's wrong with such a decision? I mean, doesn't a point guard's life on the floor consist of making good decisions?

I always liked Tom Heinson's (sp) quote. "I was 14 for 18. I got the ball 18 times and shot 14."

That's great news, and we wish him only the best. When I reminded people that Chris had said that Liberty would contend for the BS title this year, Chris reminded me that that was when we still had Dwight. (Says something about Dwight)
