Hi the Rant! Check this out, thanks

The pennant races might seem tight in the AL Central, but the Tigers clearly have the leverage.

We all remember how great Matt Leinart was in College Football. But when he came into the NFL, he hasn't surprised anyone. I say he's a disappointment, and a letdown to the Arizona Cardinals franchise:

I hope you have time to take a look. Feedback will deeply be appreciated. Also, sorry if I don't have time to check your stuff on my BB. I'm trying my best but I have been out with the flu.

All the best,
Josh Dhani

Hey, I just completed my second article on Duke Football, trying to become a Duke Football Featured Columnist. I preview the Top 5 Offensive Players to keep an eye on in 2009. Since I am trying to become a FC, please leave any feedback that you can, what I should do differently next time, things I can do to improve the article, etc. Thanks in advance. I appreciate the support!
