Georgia Tech Baseball: Danny Hall versus the ACC
Jesse28 brought up a great point yesterday. He basically stated that Danny Hall always finds a way. If you don't believe that, then check out his running win percentage against the 11 other ACC schools. He's only sub-500 against Miami and Clemson. The Clemson disparity is shrinking as well. The...

Chatting with Over the Monster
Our New York Yankees square off with the villainous Boston Red Sox this weekend in Boston. In advance of the weekend war, Randy Booth from Over the Monster and I had a little online chat thanks to the magic of Google. The results are below. Randy Booth: Here's a big umbrella question: how...
Teixeira and Braves news
I'm sorry but I've got to post my thoughts about baseball despite it being ~40 days away. Teixeira goes to the Yankees. ATL Braves legend Smoltz to the Red Sox. I understand that people want money but geez Louise. I don't want Smoltz to pull a Brett Favre. I grew up 37 miles from Fulton County....
When Johnson speaks, people listen

Deck McGuire and other baseball news
Deck McGuire was named ACC Pitcher of the Year for 2009. This is the first time a Jacket has been dubbed Pitcher of the Year. Pretty cool and some good exposure for GT's (at times) average pitching. I think Winfield will agree that our pitching has been part of the reason we haven't gone all the...
Teixeira, Wieters, and Other Baseball Updates
After struggling to start the season, Mark Teixeira has taken off for the Yankees. He's leading the team with 17 homers and 50 RBI's. That's 1/6th of the Yankees' total RBI's and 1/5th of the Yankees' total homers. Not bad.Matt Wieters came into the Baltimore organization as a super heralded...
Tuesday Linkage
The crime rate is soaring around the GT campus. Makes sense. There are no low-skill jobs 'cause NO ONE is hiring. Ask my little brother. Hence, burglary (a low-skill job) is becoming more and more prevalent. My window got busted out at the local Japanese steakhouse about 2 weeks ago (in Flo-town)....
SI's 50 Richest Athletes - GT Represented...
Sports Illustrated released an article with the 50 highest paid American athletes of 2009. GT had Starbury and Teixeira represented on the the list at #17 and #14, respectively.
