I heart Jordy

You make an excellent argument, BH, really you do.

But, your case is all stats and theory.

I have been confronted with speed factually. In practice and not on paper. And I tell you, those 0.02 seconds make a damned difference on the playing field.

I again refer to "Jackie". I don't know what he timed, but I still remember to this day what he did to my team. I am 45 years old today, and that game took place when I was 12. It is the game I have the most vivid memories of, because of Jackie's speed. I had never seen anyone run so fast in my life.

So, though you make a great theoretical case for ignoring speed, I can't support you on the grounds that I have experienced what speed can do.

I read earlier in the season that Jennings doesn't want a new contract right now. He wants to see how the year plays out first and how much he can get on the open market first.

Well, that just sucks gooseberries, doesn't it? That's about what Cory Williams was about.
