When I was a kid I was REALLY into my bike. I was all over this town on various BMX bikes that had pieced together and worked on.

The Roses did something this year we had never done before. We got involved in travel ball during the summer, during what would have been a two-month break in June and July between the spring and fall leagues we normally do. Playing for two different teams (same coach, though), we participated in four tournaments and a total of about 16 games, in addition to all the practices and scrimmages.

This week we will start projecting individual player statistics for the upcoming season.  Naturally we start with Vince Young.  Here are his 2007 stats:

Nate games it out:

A 1-point popular vote win translates to about a 75 percent chance of winning the Electoral College, a 2-point win about a 90 percent chance, a 3-point win a 97 percent chance, and a 4-point win a 99 percent chance.

The Brewers just acquired Cleveland ace C.C.

Overall I am not a big fan of the ESPN Sunday coverage, but Jackson is actually really good on that show.  He is one of the few guys on that show that provides a good breakdown of the games and what to expect in them.

I've talked about killer apps here before. Games or movies or whatever that cause someone to adopt a new technology. Good example was "The Matrix" DVD. People bought $200 DVD players (back then) just to watch a $25 movie on the new killer format.

Last weekend I was up in Chicago for the finals of the Barclay’s Churchill Cup. Billymac covered most of the trip at his place, so you can get the full run down there–I’ll just concentrate on poker.
