Browse more photos » Mike Holmgren selected Steve Hutchinson 17 th overall in the 2001 NFL Draft, seven picks after selecting Koren Robinson and 23 picks before he selected Ken Lucas . If Robinson could have kept off the bottle, that would have been a hell of a start to a draft. He swapped first round picks with Green Bay for...
I’m currently over in Finland, waiting to travel back after the OUGF Autumn Conference in Helsinki. Together with Dan Morgan, Piet de Visser and Joze Senegacnik we were providing the English-Language track, and thanks again to Heli from the user group for inviting us all over. The event started on the Wednesday evening for us, with [...]
Interview with Gene Munster, senior research analyst at Piper Jaffray, and Dan Morgan, portfolio manager at Synovus Securities. Tech giants Amazon.com, Microsoft, Google, Yahoo and Apple reported earnings in the last week, each posting stronger than expected results. “Apple is mostly on the consumer side and they had a good showing.

Schippling’s name will go down in the record books as the winner of the first Quick 32 Sportsman Series presented by NAPA Auto Parts event, held at the Cayuga Dragway in May of 2009. “The highlight of the season for sure was the Cayuga win,” said the driver of the Schippling Motorsports Undercover Dragster. “I really wanted...
There are two questions surrounding Tim Tebow's concussion. Neither involve Conan O'Brien's concussion but here's hoping he gets well also. The most important one is when he should return. Fortunately the Gators have a bye week before heading down the Baton Rouge to face the Tigers, at night . But is that enough time for Tebow's halo-encompassed cranium to proerly heal? Orson over at EDSBS does not...
10. Irrelevance. After they way Iowa utterly embarrassed the conference in week one it only stands to reason that they've been shipped off permanently to football rankings Siberia. So superfluous is this Iowa team at this point, that at his Tuesday press conference the Brooklyn-born Paterno responded to a question about his upcoming opponent by correcting a reporter as to the proper pronunciation of...
Recently it was my pleasure to become Internet friends with Mary Ellen, who not only loves Shelbys as much as I do but also has some amazing photos taken during the 1954 La Carrera Panamericana. These original slides were shot by her mother, Ina Mae Overman, and her uncle, Stanley Dean Miller. They weren't involved with any of the participants however they did take some awesome photos of the race....
Tomorrow is the official beginning of the 2009 Saints season, which means today is the official end of their 2009 off-season. The Saints have come a long way since Drew's final record-breaking pass attempt hit the Superdome turf and it's been a wild ride with lots of ups and downs. I figured what better way to say our final goodbye to the long, cold, lonely months of off-season action than to reminisce...
Having already lost linebackers Dan Morgan (retirement) and Stanley Arnoux ( Achilles) for the season, the Saints are prepared to be without backup Mark Simoneau (triceps) for several weeks and maybe the whole season. The loss of Simoneau means that Jo-Lonn Dunbar is the only current backup linebacker who has started an NFL game (he has two career starts). Added by: SportsScribe Viewed: 0 time(s)...
The Saints are short-handed at LB and are bringing a couple of veterans in for visits including 11-time Pro Bowler Derrick Brooks. With Stanley Arnoux out for the season, Dan Morgan retiring… again and Mark Simoneau out indefinitely with a torn triceps muscle, Gregg Williams defense needs reinforcements at LB. So New Orleans is bringing in Brooks [...]
Now here is something that ought to make many of you happy. Derrick Brooks will be coming to New Orleans for a little workout. I know this was something that many fans have been wanting to see, in an effort to improve the linebacking corp, so I anticipate some happy campers this morning. Of course, coach Payton commented on not commenting... "We typically don't comment on players before we see...
Tavares Gooden has never been a stranger to living up to high expectations. Whether it was as a child growing up in the shadow of his brother, whom Gooden claims was a high school football star in Ft. Lauderdale, Fla., to attending the University of Miami, where Ray Lewis, Dan Morgan, Jonathan Vilma and D.J. Williams, all former Hurricanes and NFL first-round draft picks. No. 56 always looked up to...
At the WPost today , Dan Morgan contributes an excellent analysis of what he calls the "agracrats," Democratic members of Congress from traditional farm states such as Iowa or Minnesota. As Morgan notes, these representatives have been an influential force in first opposing and then fundamentally altering climate change legislation, fearing as Morgan describes that "the cap and trade...
How Californians Learned to Stop Worrying and Love Global Warming : TreeHugger ...This last figure might make some of us more liberally-disposed bemoan the Right’s groupthink, but the fact is the numbers universally show decreased concern; this amongst a population already more aware of global warming's imminent danger. It seems to indicate that global warming and the imperative to make drastic...
I'm sure most of you out there hang on every word I write and, as such, will remember a couple of jokes I've slipped in here or there about the worlds newest form of communication, Twitter. It's how we followed the turbulent saga between Jeremy Shockey and his agent, Drew Rosenhaus. Rosenhaus also used Twitter to tell the world that Dan Morgan would be retiring...again . It even made headlines as recently...
