Feline thoughts

- I am not a cat person, I’m a dog person.
- However, I LOVE Cuttino “Cat” Mobley.  He was the best player on the 1997-1998 Rhode Island Rams men’s basketball team, winning Atlantic 10 Conference Player of the Year.  That team finished #11 in the country, after making the Elite Eight, and being seconds away [...]

Weekend sports thoughts

- I totally expected the Red Sox to win the ALCS, but I’m glad they didn’t.
- Joe Maddon should have had Barlett sacrifice bunt in game 7, when the Rays had men on first and second with no outs. Best case if he swings is one run scores, worst case is that he hits [...]

- Went to Mohegan Sun on Saturday and didn’t gamble a dime. Good for me. Also, their electronic [...]

Thursday

- So tired. I didn’t sleep much last night, for some odd reason.
- I need fantasy football advice. Any kits, sites, strategies are welcome. I really need to sit down for a few hours and pour over ESPN’s draft kit. It’s usually pretty good.
- I cut down most of my [...]
