   The Rays and the Yankees are knotted atop the AL East. Detroit is @ New York and although being 4-13 in their last 17 road games the Tigers tamed NY in the 1st of their 4 game set. Detroit have beaten NY 4 out of their last 5 attempts......
I totally enjoyed the maturity of David Price last night as he was fantastic vs. Texas and CLiff Lee. Tonight the Rays go with Matt Garza vs. the Rangers' Tommy Hunter in what should be another great match-up. Tampa Bay are 4-1 in their last 5 games vs. Texas at home and own a very impressive 17-5 stretch at home overall. Tommy Hunter for Texas does not lose games as his 9-1 record indicates so something has to give tonight!..... I threw down a couple too many beers last night and woke up with a headache but reminded myself of the hit Eli Manning took last night and threw down some OJ and shook it off. ..... Still waiting on Favre's answer like everybody else.

   Good morning and some motivation for you people struggling to getting out of bed to start your work week. Put yourself in Dustin Johnson's golf shoes for a minute and try to digest what the hell happened to him at the PGA. We can all just imagine his reaction if he sunk the putt on 18 to win the championship, only to have it then taken away from some old broken down beer slurping rules official. Dustin I feel for you as the bottom edge of your club rested for 1/10th of a second in the dirt of a so called sand trap, negating his play-off hopes. There is not 1 weekend golfer who would've not grounded his club period, bogus...... I then dialed in the Bronco-Cincy game in anticipation of watching Tim Tebow. Let me tell you all for those who missed it, the wait was worth it. Tebow is a true competitor who can also throw the football with some authority. He showed poise in the pocket and made a great throw only to be dropped by some moron receiver in the 3rd qtr. Then in the 4th qtr another receiver dropped what would have been a touchdown pass for Tebow as it was ruled a trap. But the real Tebow emerged on the last play of the game where he had to escape a rush and head for the end zone. Was there any doubt he was not going to get in, no there wasn't he is a load and has a ton of determination! I am giving Tebow an 'A' on his 1st performance - certainly the receivers he was throwing to are not starting any time soon. ....... On tap for tonight I like the match-up of Cliff Lee of the Rangers vs. the Tampa Bay Rays' David Price. .... The Rays are 16-5 last 21 at home.

   My advice to everyone is to get your chores out of the way during the afternoon, as the PGA tourney consists of a bunch of no names fighting it out. There is no Tiger on the prowl nor Phil who are both trailing by double digits. As tribute to George Carlin's golf analogy "I would rather watch flies fuck than watch golf"... Now on to bigger and much better things... Tonight we have can't miss preseason football with Ocho and TO of the Bengals who definitely bring their 'A' games in the mouth department. On the other side of the spectrum for the Broncos we have a throwback type player who's heart is second to none in Tim Tebow. I will definitely be dialed in on this match-up with the surround sound kicked up a notch as this game has been highlighted on my calendar for some time. Watching Tebow's every move and rooting for him in his NFL debut surely excites me and reminds me of how I used to enjoy football in my younger years.
