ASU scores. UCLA's defense is bad enough, the refs don't need to help ASU. 14-7 with 6:18 to go in the first quarter.
-
Spencer Havner intercepts the ball for UCLA but the Bruins get a bogus defensive holding call. Jamal Anderson (yes, the former Atlanta Falcon who's announcing) is ripping the refs.
-
Smack him.
-
LSU wins it 16-13.
-
14-0 UCLA on a 56-yard TD pass to backup RB Chris Markey, 9:52 left in the first quarter.
-
ASU fumble!! My boy Spencer Havner recovers at the UCLA 20. That LSU-Alabama game isn't bad.
-
Drew Olson goes to Joe Cowan for a 91-yard TD pass on the first play of the game! Olson breaks Cade McNown's record for most TD passes in a season (26). 7-0, UCLA.
-
Senior day at Pasadena. Star middle linebacker Justin London out for the game for UCLA. :(
-
Oklahoma State and Texas Tech are tied at 17 with about a minute left in regulation.
-
USC leads it at half, 21-3 over the sister school. :( Just to note, I was there at Memorial Stadium at Berkeley the last time USC lost. That was a great day, USC lost and the Cubs clinched a playoff spot by winning a doubleheader against Pittsburgh. :)
-
21-3 USC. Cal isn't coming back unless Nate Longshore's broken ankle magically heals, Joe Ayoob is just lost at QB.
-
Wow, Joe Ayoob is pathetic. I know he's Cal's backup and all, but he's played all season. You'd think he'd have figured out his throwing mechanics by now.
-
They better not call that a TD for USC. He was out of bounds. Looks like the refs figured it out afterwards. These refs aren't that good, might want to check if a guy is inbounds before signalling for a TD. Leinart rushes in on the next play, 14-3 USC. The D just broke down on that play.
-
USC gets bailed out on 4th down on a BS pass interference call. :roll:
-
Cal kicks a 45-yard FG to make it 7-3.
-
USC turns the interception into a 7-0 lead with 7:15 to go in the first quarter (LenDale White run).
-
Joe Ayoob is a pathetic quarterback. He throws it straight to Darnell Bing while Cal is driving. USC ball near midfield in the first quarter.

I'll take the first option everyday and twice on Sundays. What if Lugo cost the Cubs Pie? Then the Devil Rays will keep BJ Upton in the minors for another year because no one would trade for Lugo at that cost. He will cost some team some talent Raisin, maybe not Pie talent but some pretty decent talent. Agreed, but the DRays aren't getting a top-25 MLB prospect for him. They're more likely to get something like Hill and Nolasco for him.

Me neither. I'm sure Hendry would prefer the tools of Austin Kearns.

How good is Felix Pie?

He's played quite a few games for Licey since the ankle injury and doesn't seem to have any lingering issues with the ankle. -

On Pie’s Defense: On Pie’s Power Potential: On his Ability to Win: And, of course, the DiamondJaxx went to the championship this year. I believe that they would have won it had Pie been able to play. I repeat that Pie is going to be a star. Plus, he's a fun-loving, exciting young man. He's exactly the kind of player that wee all love to root for. He plays with heart, effort, and joy. So enough with the Pie for Pierre suggestions. It would be nothing short than a collossal mistake to make such a move. And while I am all for targetting Dunn or Abreu, I would do everything I could to get one of them without trading Felix. Don't forget that Mesa, Boise, Lansing and Daytona all won it all with Felix. -

I was aware that he spend some time focusing more on football, and didn't primarily dedicate himself to baseball until close to the end of high school, but, correct me if I'm wrong, he still played in little league and other various organized leagues as a kid growing up, didn't he? Most kids I grew up with that concentrated more on Football still played baseball because football isn't year-round. He just didn't make baseball his first priority until later, unless I'm mistaken. That, IMO, would give him a big jump over where Pie was coming from. I'm sure Corey did that, my point is he didn't get proper coaching and put in proper focus till his senior year. Thus, while not as raw as Felix, he's more raw than many first round draft picks. -
I remember them really wanting Hill, not Pie. Trading Hill is fine. Why not trade Harvey instead of Pie? Pie can help the team next year, Harvey is three years away. Because Harvey's value has slipped a bit.
