About

Jay has yet to fill out a bio.

Short List

  • Favorite Athletes

    Walter Payton, Ryne Sandberg, Mark Grace, Kerry Wood and Michael Jordan.

  • Favorite Sports Teams

    Chicago Bears, Chicago Cubs, Iowa Hawkeyes, San Diego Chargers and San Diego Padres.

  • Favorite Coaches

    Kirk Ferentz

  • All-Time Sports Moment

    Dave Roberts steals second base. You know when, you know where and you know why.

  • Most Memorable Game Attended

    October 5th, 2003 - The Cubs defeat the Atlanta Braves 5-1 to win the 2003 National League Division series, their first post-season series since 1908.

  • Ruth or Mays?

    Mays. What's more likely, Ruth duplicating Mays numbers in Willie's era? Or Willie matching the Babe's numbers in the the era of Ruth?

  • Unitas or Montana?

    Montana. But Brady will end up with better records and numbers than either one (hard to believe but true).

  • Jordan or Russell?

    Jordan.

  • Gretzky or Orr?

    Gretzky.

  • ACC, Big 12, Big East, Big Ten, Pac-12 or SEC?

    Big Ten. But 8 years in Tennessee taught me the SEC is the most talented, despite my love of Midwest football.

    Hey Joshua,

    I wrote an evaluation of Lovie Smith and my thoughts about the job he has done since he has been here and I would love to hear what you think about it. Thanks.

    To be honest, I don't know what they are going to do with Campana. The Cubs could always use his speed, but as you said, the outfield is going to be full with Byrd, DeJesus, Jackson, and possibly Crisp, LaHair, and Soriano. So that is six potential outfielders and none of those are Campana. My hope is that he suddenly starts hitting for average and plays above average defense to become a starting outfielder but I know that my hopes do not always correlate with reality. My honest thought is that he will either be a part of a trade (not the main piece of course, just an add-on to sweeten the deal) and then make it as a 4th outfielder there. Or he becomes one of those guys who made it in the big leagues but his team just didn't have a need for him anymore and either finds a new team when his contract expires or retires young. I personally (realistically) hope that he manages to stay with whatever team he is part of (again, my hope is the Cubs) and stays in the big leagues. On the bright side, with his time with the Cubbies, he is part of a great trivia question. (Who was the last person to hit an inside-the-park homerun? Tony Campana.)
