New Year View

Clemens is looking for a way out. Screw him. He has been relegated to denials on National TV instead of striking out hitters or pointing to his ring finger during batting practice. He will be lumped in with B*nds forever. From this weekends playoffs I still haven't seen a team that can honestly beat the Patriots. The Jaguars are "built for the playoffs". Whatever the hell that means. In that regard the Pats throwing the ball 50 times is going to work against them. Wrong. Brady-Moss-Welker and company will shred any defense thrown at them. I don't believe the Celts can roll in the playoffs. They will keep their head of steam during the regular season and challenge da Bulls 72 wins, BUT the second season is much different from the first. The pressure just might crack these teammates. The A's have thrown in the towel. Almost assuredly leaving us Oakland fans with a little hope that another tainted 25 will not brandish a syringe errrrr bat in our lineup. Swisher might tear it up in Chicago with Ozzie, but will the11 players yielded from the three trades(Haren,Scutaro)BB has made this offseason field a fiery bunch that will play with reckless abandon for the true love of the game? Only time will tell...
