    If any of you are interested in a fantasy hockey league I need a few more owners in an established yahoo league. It's the 7th year for my H2H points based league. Live draft is tomorrow night at 7:30. All of the owners are active all season. League ID is 34284 password is 1. I look forward to seeing you.

    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

    Hey Mark,

    Wasn't sure if you were the man to check in with on this or not. I wrote an article on the Hurricanes that, for whatever reason, didn't seem to go up on the Hurricanes' team page. How do I make sure that happens in the future? Thanks, Mark. Have a good one.

    So last night, I was trying to sleep and I started thinking about the article I wrote way back in winter about how Tim Brent was killing the Hurricanes as a member of the Maple Leafs. Then yesterday, he signs with Carolina! So now you get to enjoy him, which I think you will. He's one of those unsung hero type guys.

    Remember this?

    I tried to work with the photo, Mark, but apparently it's an internal problem. I'll try again and see if I can get a good one to stick...

    What happened to your comment on my latest? LOL. I can tell you I didn't report it or anything, but I noticed it disappeared. I couldn't see all of it b/c it's cut off on my profile, and I was really curious about your thoughts that got cut off.
