The Orioles unveiled new road uniforms with Baltimore replacing Orioles on the front. What do you think?
|
It’s the only way Baltimore will ever be out in front next baseball season. |
|
If you put lipstick on Peter Angelos, he’s still Peter Angelos. |
|
That’s a good idea. Baltimore should replace the Orioles. |
|
They did this to remind fans across the country where lousy baseball is played. |
|
They Orioles have averaged 91 losses for the last 8 seasons. Now, the owner puts “Baltimore” on the front of their jerseys? The heck with that. Put “Angelos” on the front. |

Evander Holyfield, 46, will fight for the WBA heavyweight title against 7-foot Russian Nikolai Valuev. Is this wise?
|
Even Sylvester Stallone thinks this is ridiculous. |
|
And Muhammad Ali will be the guest referee |
|
For the ancient Holyfield, let’s hope WBA doesn’t stand for Won’t Be Alive for much longer. |
|
I’m sure Holyfield is not “The Real Deal” anymore, but why else would he take this fight? It’s not like his opponent will remind anyone of Ivan Drago. |
|
Yes. And if he wins, I want a rematch with George Foreman, now 59, who was 46 when he dropped Michael Moorer with a cannon right hand in the 15th round to reclaim the heavyweight title in 1994. |

In a recent interview, Shaquille O’Neal said coach Phil Jackson encouraged his fued with Kobe Bryant. Your thoughts?
|
This is no excuse: Jackson also encouraged Shaq to make foul shots. |
|
Phil must be taking lessons from Jerry Springer. |
|
Are we really still talking about the Shaq-Kobe feud? Man, that’s as old as Holyfield. |
|
Of course, Phil had a few books to sell at the time. He needed to spice up a few chapters. |
|
In business management school they call this kind of thing “creative tension.” |

|
Michael Vick’s lawyers say the quarterback expects to return to the NFL after serving his jail sentence. Will that happen?
|
Vanilla Ice has a better chance of mounting a comeback. |
|
Not if Purina is a corporate sponsor. |
|
If so, he’ll be dogged by the negative fan reaction. |
|
Yes. By the time he gets out of jail, he’ll be the first NFL quarterback to start a game past the age of 46.
Ron: |
|
Of course. Nothing is impossible in this country or the NFL. Vick will trade in his orange jumpsuit for Cleveland orange and brown, and the fans in the “Dawg Pound” will go crazy the first time he runs for a touchdown. Oh, the irony. |

The Portland Trail Blazers will retire the No. 30 jersey twice in December to honor former players Terry Porter and Bobby Gross. Good move?
|
Come on, I’ve been waiting for years for them to retire the No. 11 of Arvydas Sabonis. |
|
Isn’t there an IRS regulation against double-retiring? |
|
Come on, I’ve been waiting for years for them to retire the No. 11 of Arvydas Sabonis. |
|
I can’t believe they forgot about Rasheed Wallace. |
|
Gross, an utterly mediocre forward completely lacking athletic ability, led the Trailblazers past the Julius Erving-led 76ers to their only championship, scoring 24 points and grabbing 8 rebounds in Game 7. Retire his number? They should build a religious shrine to this guy. Apparently, he's capable of performing miracles. |
