    I've enjoyed your stuff on the Rays at this news-crazy time of the year for them. Keep it up and go Niners.

    Hey, would you be able to send your e mail to klangan@omnipossible.com? I want to get the B/R community leaders on a mailing list for a press release on behalf of Sports Media 101.

    Thanks

    You are an absolute moron and nothing more than a Florida fan with a press pass. Do you know the difference between football and basketball, or your a** and a hole in the ground. Facts are OSU is 8-3 in NCAA tourney all time vs SEC, and was 5-0 vs UK before last night. Cold shooting did them in, and anyone in their right mind (not you) knows OSU beats them in a best of 5, probably in four games. Oh, yeah 93-75 in Gainsville this year idiot, who won? Stick to flipping burgers, because obviously facts, which I thought were essential to real journalism, are something you are unfamiliar with.
