Congratulations to Craig Biggio for making and surpassing the 3,000 hit mark. He couldn’t have scripted a better game to achieve it. He had 5 hits a career high that he hadn’t achieved since 2001 and Carlos Lee won the game with a Grand Slam.
Historically Houston pro-team GMs have made some bone head moves during their respective sports drafts, see the ill-fated Texans draft of 2006, when they chose Mario Williams #1 and passed on hometown hero Vince Young and All-start running back Reggie Bush. Check out the NBA draft of 1998 when the Houston Rockets took Brice Drew, Michael Dickerson, Mirsad Turkcan ( Who?) in the first round and passed on home town high school star Rashard Lewis. Although, I am an Astros fan, I don’t really follow their draft besides it works differently in baseball since the drafted player go into the farm system (minor leagues), the Astros have their own set of problems, one being that they keep their top prospects in the minors too long before bringing them up to the majors. All this too say, I wonder what bone head move will the Rockets make in this years NBA draft.
Houston has the #26 draft pick in the first round, they so haven’t made any moves to move up in the first round and that is ok. At #26 will there be any players left that can address their needs preferably a Power Forward that is not afraid to use his body. They also need to real shooters, some that can score from 15ft out or that can finish at the basket.
So for this draft tonight I’ll be keeping my fingers crossed and hope that they actually pick a couple of players that can help get the team off Tracy’s ailing back.
Mr. Washington, can you please go sit your self down some where and shut up!! It was your mouth that got you axed from one of the top rated dramas on televison today. If you don’t shut up then it’s going to be your mouth that will get you black balled in Hollywood.
So Mr. Washington take my advice, sit down, shut up and let this dead horse die. The more you squawk, the more you proceed to alienate your self from your fans and your colleagues.
Recently it has come to my attention that folks I thought knew me well really don’t know me at all. I guess that’s my own fault. Although, I am opinionated at times (some might say most of the time) and bit bossy, I guess I still keep my true inner self guarded. I still keep the walls up. I don’t know why I do this or maybe I do. I guess I consider my self to be strong, independent, self sufficient woman. I figure if I let someone in to the true me then one or maybe all those things I consider myself to be will be compromised. Man do I need some therapy… I read some of the blog entries of some folks on this web and wonder how they could put their inner most thoughts and feelings out there for the world to see? I can’t do it. I am just not an open book. I am more of an “ask.com” type of girl. You ask me and I will answer. They answer I give ill be honest.
So I guess I shouldn’t be surprised that my friends don’t really know me like I thought and want them too.
