Apathy is a Terrible Thing

This team lost me about three weeks ago. I can't really say, "I don't care." Because, I do. But, I just don't care as much as I should, and that sucks.

Polk has done something this spring that no one in 4 years has been able to accomplish, he actually has me looking forward to the football season.

Let me just get his off my chest...I don't care how good Kentucky's record is this year, a Mississippi State baseball team should NEVER, ever, get swept at UK.

And I really don't need an "I told you so" lecture from Rick Cleveland about baseball not being football. This sad sack has made a career of being a reporter/sports columnist at the Clarion Ledger...that's about all that needs to be said about his ability to overcome mediocrity. Why should he be lecturing anyone on expectations?

And speaking of expectations...our golden boy Norwood is being expected to achieve a lot in Atlanta. So much, that Duckett is being hounded by trade rumors.

And quotes like this have to help in recruiting, right?

Norwood's comfort level is high because he ran in a pro-style offense at Mississippi State. Croom took Green Bay's version of the West Coast offense to Starkville, and it's similar to the Falcons' version.

"I talked to Sly before we drafted him, and even a lot of the terminology is the same," Wilson said. "Anytime a rookie can come in and have a little familiarity with what's going on, it's a plus for him."

I suppose that is more than enough random thoughts for one day. I'm going to try to get back to regular updates...but don't expect too much, this isn't football.
