I want to say the dad broke his back sledding with her and her sister when Ronda was somewhere around 8 and basically killed himself so the family didn't have to watch him suffer. She can barely talk about it now, was a huge story in her last fight when Correia made a suicide joke to her. Her umbilical cord was wrapped around her neck and she couldn't speak until 6. She would actually have a real good story to tell high school aged kids. Was also homeless living in her car after the Olympics.

Rousey has a real interesting story with her dad's suicide and not being able to speak until she was 6. Could also connect with that age group a lot better than Bird or Barkley.

He's a professor at St. Joesph's in Philly. I think he's much more of a math/statistics guy than an actual basketball "expert"

re: Why are Left Handers used only at 1st Base

Leftys can't catch for 2 reasons-

On a throw down to 2nd on a steal, their arm would be right in line with a right handed batter. The same issue that righty catchers have with lefty batters, but there's obviously far more righty hitters

And the throw down to 3rd on a steal is almost impossible. The time it took to shift your feet and turn your shoulders would stop you from ever throwing anyone out.

re: Breaking news: Non-referee entered refs locker room and took game balls

I think this is easily the most realistic story to believe. If the NFL doesn't care enough about the footballs to have them in their own possession until the game actually starts, who is to say they care enough to exactly document the pressure? You see NBA and college basketball referee's checking the pressure of a basketball without a gauge and squeezing and bouncing the ball. I think the referee eyeballed the test and the NFL doesn't know how to explain that now.

Has the new theory out there that the referee never used an actual PSI gauge been discussed? A Boston radio show is now floating the idea that the referee just squeezed the ball and ok'ed it without ever checking its true PSI level. This seems completely plausible and also lends itself to the argument that you can't really tell a small inflation difference in pressure. With the other new info coming out about how the balls were much closer to 11.5 and not 10.5, this seems like the most likely scenario. Neither the Patriots or the refs used a pressure gauge and they both went by the feel of the ball.

If Miles leaves (and I know he probably isn't) what about him? 36 years old and has been talked about for numerous NFL jobs last year and this year. Spent 3 years at LSU to start his career. If Manning is on his way out, I think he could be a huge hire.

I don't get why the news continues to question releasing the report at 8:00 at night. If this was going to be the reaction, isn't it best that all of the schools are empty and the majority of businesses had the chance to get away from that part of town as well?

They're not Don Bosco or Bergen Catholic but they've had a pretty consistent past for a public school. "Power" might be too strong but they have multiple state titles in their recent history.

I'm two towns from there. The story going around is that the seniors were making freshman stick their fingers and other things up their asses. Their defensive coordinator was also arrested at a seedy motel with a car full of steroids, though apparently they don't think it was connected to the players at all.
