Owners’ Vote on Expos Delayed<\/b><\/a> – The Post<\/i>
\n
MLB: Relocation Is Not at Risk<\/strong>
\n
This delay does not concern me, they are obligated to make the vote by Dec. 6.<\/p>\n

Baseball Is a Hit at the Box Office<\/b><\/a> – The Post<\/i>
\n
Let’s conservatively say that is two tickets each. That is 20,000 tickets that are going to be sold before the public sale even begins. It works out to about 1.6 million, which is far more than the Expos could have ever hoped to draw in Montr\u00e9al. Let’s thank all those who put deposits down to show we care about baseball in D.C.<\/p>\n
Curbside Parking Fees Proposed for Stadium<\/b><\/a> – The Post<\/i>
\n
Private Contract Could Raise $100 Million<\/strong>
\n
Another alternative revenue proposal. Our hero, Jack Evans (D, Ward-2) thinks they should pass the funding bill with an amendment for alternative revenue, so that there is time to develop a good one, not just a quick one. I like his idea, just another reason why he is THE MAN.<\/p>\n
Robinson agrees to return as manager<\/b><\/a> – The Wash. Times<\/i>
\n
The continuity will probably be good. He got a lot out of the team his first two years up there. I expect, one or two; three years tops for him as skipper.<\/p>\n
Paul Lukas<\/strong> – We the People<\/b><\/a> – ESPN Page 2<\/i>
\n
The latest UniWatch has winner of the D.C. uniform contest. Some of the designs are okay, I like the D.C. flag in BEST REGIONAL DETAILS one, but I also like the swinging George Washington in the BEST OVERALL DESIGN. Thanks to Brad Stratton<\/b><\/a> for sending me the link.<\/p>\n
\n

SENIOR DAY<\/h2>\n

PSU seeks redemption against MSU<\/b><\/a> – The Collegian<\/i>
\n
I will take redemption or a lot of playing time for Anthony Morelli<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Seniors to be honored before final home game<\/b><\/a> – The Collegian<\/i>
\n
I always enjoy senior day. Mills will get the loudest cheers, probably followed by Paul Jefferson<\/strong> or Andrew Guman<\/strong>. Derek Wake<\/strong> is not getting many from me, he really underachieved during his career.<\/p>\n
Often maligned, Mills reluctantly ends PSU career<\/b><\/a> – Post-Gazette<\/i>
\n
I will cheering wildly for Zack, he gave all he had to this program. It is not his fault no one could catch the ball or block. He deserved better and I hope he goes out a winner.
\n
More from The Collegian<\/em>: Mills’ trek full of ups, downs<\/b><\/a> and Jenny Vrentas’<\/strong> QB deserves better<\/b><\/a> column.<\/p>\n
Penn State Football Notebook: Paterno runs reverse on 2 young tailbacks<\/b><\/a> – Post-Gazette<\/i>
\n
I really do not see either Tony Hunt or Austin Scott actually redshirting. I am glad the idea is being considered, but I just do not see it happening.<\/p>\n
Lessons learned by a fullback<\/b><\/a> – The Morning Call<\/i>
\n
Paul Jefferson leaves PSU a changed person: ‘I became a man.’<\/strong>
\n
That is nice and all, but I wish he could have become an All-Big11Ten too. He was a disappointment this year — lots of holding calls and an absent ground attack for most of the Big11Ten<\/strong> season.<\/p>\n
\n

FIELD GOAL CHALLENGE<\/h2>\n

It all comes down to Saturday. Sam and I are against each other for the title of champion of the universe or something. The winner will achieve this position converting more field goal attempts than the loser at one of the IM Field goal posts. It should be fun.<\/p>\n

\n

FOR THE 121ST TIME<\/h2>\n

Bulldogs attempt to spoil Cantabs’ perfect season<\/b><\/a> – Yale Daily News<\/i>
\n
The Game preview. ESPN Gameday should be there instead of at BYU vs. Utah. Also see the editorial: For the 121st time, The Game still matters<\/b><\/a>. There are a whole lot of other articles, I just do not have time to post them.<\/p>\n

\n

BOB EDWARDS SLAMS NPR<\/h2>\n

Honored, but angry<\/b><\/a> – The Boston Globe<\/i>
\n
Bob Edwards, to be feted at WBUR, criticizes ex-NPR bosses<\/b>
\n
The legendary Bob Edwards<\/strong>, a man who made NPR what it is (or was), was very critical of his former employer. I am with Bob on this one, NPR really blew it and does not have a clue. Last weekend, I was asked to contribute to my local station. I choose not too, indicating that I was broke (true) and that I was unhappy about what happened to Edwards. The woman on the other end said she was hearing that a lot.<\/p>\n
