He got you guys that Big 12 Title the one year. If Phillips doesn't re-sign with the Reds then Greene could be up with the team in the next two seasons.

Thanks for the props on the Brodie Greene article. I take it you know him from his A&M days? I definitely like what he brings to the Reds' system.

Remember all those times when you said A&M was going to wipe the field with "tu"? And that you were going to destroy us in the last lonestar showdown game? Good prediction.

Tucker kicked a 40-yard field goal that gave the Longhorns a 27-25 victory over Texas A&M! "It is likely end of a more than century-old rivalry"... Helluva way to go out I say! Rivalry was fun, but sometimes it got out of hand.

I called Cam Newton a poor man's Terrelle Pryor once...in hindsight, I probably should have kept that one to myself...

I actually appreciate that. Quite frankly, what you said is what I have been thinking for awhile now. I tend not to take much of a stance, especially when I'm doing the season previews, which I think hurts my chances of gaining a strong readership.

I'm not sure if you have read any of my other articles on B/R, but they are the same way. The closest I came to actually having an opinion came in my article about Ubaldo Jimenez, and I didn't really give my true opinion; I kind of just stuck my toe in the water.

Again, I appreciate the remarks and I don't see it as coming off as a know it all. You're not the first person to say that, and it's something I intend on improving.

No problem. No, I'm not a Big Red fan. I'm actually a Buckeyes fan. The "Corn" in my blog name actually references where I live (I live next to a corn field) as well as being a play on "Around The Horn".

Thanks for checking it out, by the way.

Yeah I think that would be quite a wake up call for him. I don't know if that would do anything for him though, since the Cubs have given him plenty of wake up calls in the past.

I really like your piece on ESPN and Texas A&M. There was a great depth of reporting, and even though I know that you are an Aggie fan you remained objective and told the story like it was. Like I said it is probably the best example of what journalism should look like that I have seen on BR.
