Louisville's Peyton Siva hugs his injured teammate Kevin Ware after Louisville's win over Wichita State in semi fina in NCAA Final Four. / Detorit Free Press
ATLANTA - Kevin Ware bowed his head, unable to look up. Burying his face in his jersey, he did for Luke Hancock what his teammate and captain did almost a week ago â?? he prayed.
Louisville clung to a two-point lead against ninth-seeded Wichita State in the Final Four at the Georgia Dome on Saturday, and only 8.8 seconds stood between the Cardinals and an appearance in the national championship game.
Ware didn't watch the first free throw, but the sound of the crowd told him was in. When the second one missed, Ware raised his head to see Hancock getting possession back with a jump ball.
"I kind of feel like that's when God really heard me," Ware said.
It was fitting that Ware would pray for Hancock. On Sunday, it was Hancock who rushed to the court to calm an injured Ware.
With Ware's right leg so badly broken in the Midwest Regional final that his bone was protruding through the skin, an injury that would put him in surgery within hours, Hancock was the first to jump to his side.
Many of the Cardinals players wept. Some gagged at the sight of the gruesome injury, but Hancock rushed to Ware's side to pray during one of the toughest moments of his life.
Hearing of his injured teammate's support, Hancock said, "We'd love for him to be out there. He's out there in spirit. It means a lot. It means a lot. Kevin's my guy."
Hancock's 20 points off the bench extended Louisville's season to Monday, when the top-seeded Cardinals (34-5) face fourth-seeded Michigan (31-7) in the national championship game.
When the final buzzer sounded, an emotional, week-long journey dissolved in one embrace with Ware's father, Kevin Ware Sr.
His teammates had each come to shake his hand or bump fists after the starting lineup was announced. By midway through the second half, Louisville had cut a 12-point deficit in half, but Ware felt like he had something to say.
Without his crutches, he climbed up to the raised court to encourage the Cardinals against the wishes of athletic trainer Fred Hina.
"I couldn't sit no more," he said. "Fred was telling me to keep it elevated, but I kind of feel like my leg's been fine. I'm gonna go back in my room and sit there for hours and ice it, so I'll be fine."
By the time Hancock had helped secure the win, Ware felt his prayers had been answered. Six days ago, he lay on a court with Hancock kneeling over him. They prayed for his health and recovery.
Ware's on the way there. With his support, the Cardinals are one win away from a national title.
"We know how much it would mean for him to be out there," said guard Peyton Siva. "He tried to give us whatever we needed, the extra motivation, the extra boost to get over the hump. That's what he did."

So, all though I don't normally care for these flame-wars...
I've used win7 , osx, and linux + cli, gnome,kde4,xfce,lxde,el,razor-qt,awesome,windowmaker etc. pp. and to be honest, they all suck at least at something.
Its the truth! There is no such thing as the 'perfect' desktop!
For me, I really liked gnome2, and I think if it had been polished enough and something like avant-window-navigator(the dock, osx strongpoint) thrown in, it could have been something really grand, but sadly history took a wrong turn, and now were in this mess, were NO DE meats it.
Win7 and OSX aren't free, but not only that, they also are flawed, for me most importantly because I cannot change how they work.(.DS_Store anyone?, or Libraries??? + more substantial issues which however wouldn't fit inside these brackets)
Generally with DE's were really lucky, and our 'problems' are mostly down to nitpicking, anyone who doubts this, should just use cli - cause that gets the job done, just not with much style
I don't know why this KDE dev. decided to quit (for me, ever since gnome3, kde has been the goto guy, despite its problems), but I will never 'quit' using free software, as much as I can, I will never degrade myself by becoming a 'fanboy' of any freedom-robbing company, so STFU and get hacking!!!

PHILADELPHIA — Jeff Kobernus has always been more interested in scoring on someone else's home run than hitting his own, so the rookie's reaction to the first homer of his big-league career last night perhaps wasn't all that surprising. Especially given the situation in which it occurred.
With one out in the eighth inning and the Nationals trailing by three runs, Kobernus stepped to the plate as a pinch-hitter and walloped a pitch from Cliff Lee into the left-field bleachers at Citizens Bank Park.
"I was just going up there trying to get on base," Kobernus said. "I'm not a home run hitter, but going up there trying to see some pitches and hopefully get on base. We're down three right there.Read more »
- Eric - Jun 19, 2013 at 3:15 PM
Did any of y'all catch the side drama that was the Phillies' park staff retrieving the ball for Kobernus? That was hilarious! That kid looked like he was gonna soil his drawers when the security guy beckoned to him.Anyway, congrats Kobernus!
- baseballswami - Jun 19, 2013 at 3:58 PM
I did, Eric, and it was hilarious. Did any of you read the Espi story on WP?? Bravo- Danny, who has embraced this now and realized it 's a good thing. But, he said he had not been this in control of his hitting since he came up. I feel that many of our young players are playing and hitting correctly when they arrive and regress here. That should not happen!!! Are fundamentals left by the wayside once they get here? Tell me honestly that you are not even a little worried that Eck will ruin Rendon. And hitting is not just blasting, it's understanding situations and what the pitcher is trying to go to you. That is what I see lacking more and more- not getting better . Should the Chiefs hitting coach be added to our staff here?
- baseballswami - Jun 19, 2013 at 4:02 PM
And he has been officially optioned to AAA. His new take on things is perfect. Go Danny!
- Eric - Jun 19, 2013 at 4:06 PM
I'm not worried about Rendon any more than I was worried about anyone in our line up when we were putting up some of the best offensive numbers in baseball last season.
- Eric - Jun 19, 2013 at 4:06 PM
"And he has been officially optioned to AAA. His new take on things is perfect. Go Danny!"He has? As of when? They don't have to make that decision until he's been on rehab for 20 days.
- Eric - Jun 19, 2013 at 4:10 PM
Per the WaPo article:"At some point in the next two weeks, the Nats can either activate him to the 25-man roster or option him to the minors."Sounds like it's still an open question, although his continued slump makes activation seem unlikely…
- baseballswami - Jun 19, 2013 at 4:11 PM
It had been made– it's official. Read his interview. He has seen the light. And I am afraid that Rendon will catch whatever hitting disease has infected our ranks. Hope not– and absolutely cannot wait to see Rendon and Bryce playing together!! If those two can't energize a lineup no one can.

- Exposremains - Jun 19, 2013 at 4:45 PM
natsladythe part about firing a hitting coach in the past, is that a quote from rizzo?
- baseballswami - Jun 19, 2013 at 4:47 PM
Sounds like the guy in Syracuse is aces, NatsLady — many guys have been entrusted to him at a critical level of development. Guys go back there for help. Missed the radio show — anything else of importance? And by the way — I am happy for Danny that he has a renewed direction and happy for the Nats because he can still play a vital role, either with the team or as a good trade piece to give him a fresh start.
- Mr Baseball - Jun 19, 2013 at 4:50 PM
As far as hitting, I don't think it would hurt if we went back a few decades and be a team who tries to make contact. I'm tired of the long ball HR approach we now see in MLB.l I liked it when hitters put the bat on the ball and didn't strike out 150+ per season. The name of the game is to get on base and so you can score runs. When trying to make contact HR's will happen. Choke up, it didn't hurt Barry Bonds! Even through he may have been on steroids, he still make contact!
- Section 222 - Jun 19, 2013 at 4:53 PM
Can someone explain to me what Eck did to "mess with" Span? I thought there was a report that he looked at films and pointed out something Span was doing in the past when he was a more successful hitter. And Span decided to try it. How is that messing with him? I thought that's what hitting coaches were supposed to do. Or is there more to the story that I'm not remembering?
- Section 222 - Jun 19, 2013 at 4:59 PM
From the WashPo: "The past three years, I've basically been battling every day in the big leagues to feel comfortable, to be where I need to be. At least right now, I'm comfortable. I'm comfortable with my swing."Whaaaaat? All it took for a few days in the minors? What were you (and Rizzo) waiting for then?I hope he regains his stroke and puts up some serious numbers in AAA…. so he'll have some trade value when we get rid of him.
- Ghost Of Steve M. - Jun 19, 2013 at 5:08 PM
That's some crazy quotes. Finally Mike sees the light. Just think if Rizz saw the light last year and got Scutaro instead of the Giants. X Factor.

This team has only 2 natural hitters in the system. Their names are Anthony and Bryce. All the rest feel uncomfortable from time to time.
- baseballswami - Jun 19, 2013 at 5:18 PM
I think the 2 situations with Danny and Bryce show a lot about how the organizational people and the manager have got to be the grown ups. This is absolutely not that team filled with wise veterans who know what they need to do to get ready, who know when they should play or sit out, who know what they need to continue to develop. They need the older and wiser leaders to actually lead them! Bryce needed to be tied to a chair — look how much longer this took. Espi needed some time with the teaching type coaches — look how much longer that took. I think part of it is that Davey is more the popular grandpa that tells cool stories from back in the day and he used to be the Dad who made the rules and enforced them.Rizzo seems to indulge what Davey wants for a very long time. I truly feel that this team needs a lot more guidance and structure than they are getting. It's kind of an every man for himself, loose atmosphere. Might be a fun way to do business for a while, but inevitably someone needs to pull back the reins and take charge. Sounds to me like Werth and Desi might be trying to get a handle on things. I hope so.

- SonnyG10 - Jun 19, 2013 at 5:38 PM
I would be in favor of having two hitting coaches. I understand some of the other teams have more than one. If the guy at AAA is really good, bring him up to help Eck.
- baseballswami - Jun 19, 2013 at 5:39 PM
Royals were struggling and did not fire theirs, just brought in George Brett to "help"!

A beautiful day for 4 games.1:00 Dodgers @ Yanks4:00 Padres at Giants7:00 Nats at Phils10:00 Mariners at Angels.Best part about being old and having nowhere to go I can watch all 4.Predictions from the games1) I will see at least 12 homers2) I will see 5 bad calls on the bases, but replay will prove that 4 were actually correct3) Unless Bob Davidson's crew is umping I will see 0 balks4) will see 3 hit by pitches at least5) I will see no melees6) Will se at least 3 guys stranded at third getting there with less than 2 outs.7) will se – ejections8) will see no blown saves9) 2 home teams and 2 away teams will win10) Yankees announcers will remind us they have lost most time to injuries (despite what Nat fans think) Should have predicted a video tribute to Mattingly, wasn't thinking.

"This team has only 2 natural hitters in the system. Their names are Anthony and Bryce. All the rest feel uncomfortable from time to time."Desmond has been by far the Nats most consistent hitter since May of 2012 – his month-long slump in May was the first month since April of 2012 that his OPS for the month was below .799. Bryce and Anthony might look like natural hitters, but don't forget Bryce's long slump in 2012. We'll see if Rendon can avoid the 2nd-time-around slump that can happen to a young hitter when scouting reports catch up to him.A big part of what we've seen is the ripple effect that injuries have on a lineup. The Nats aren't much different than the rest of MLB in that they hit better when facing a pitcher who's pitching from a stretch with baserunners to worry about – OBP is between 20 and 25 pts better with runners on and OPS is about 30 pts better. Take a couple of good hitters like Bryce and Werth out of the lineup and everyone behind them is going to be worse because the pitchers they're facing will be out of the windup more often. Put them back in the lineup and we'll see more production out of the middle of the order. This is also one of the reasons why Span's disappointing OBP is hurting the Nats.
- TheManBearPig - Jun 19, 2013 at 6:04 PM
By the way, the Nats aren't alone in having their run production hurt by injuries – the Yankees have been affected by injuries pretty much the same way as the Nats. Both scored about 3.5 runs per game in May and they're scoring about 3.3 runs per game in June.As the Nats added healthy hitters to their lineup in 2012 – Harper called up, Morse returning, Zim getting a cortisone shot, their runs per game went up: from about 3.3 in April, to just over 4 in May to almost 5 (4.85) for the second half. With their pitching staff, they don't need to score 5 per game. 4.5 is doable if they get healthy and would put them right back in the race.

- TheManBearPig - Jun 19, 2013 at 6:14 PM
You can't talk about the Nats' offensive woes without talking about injuries, MNF. Lombo, Bernadina and Kobernus aren't goint to turn into .800 OPS hitters. Getting Harper back is going to help a lot.
- Manassas Nats' Fan - Jun 19, 2013 at 6:19 PM
Prediction 6 had an alternative move. Adrien Gonzalez on third no out doubled off on a liner to the pitcher, so I will count that.
- Manassas Nats' Fan - Jun 19, 2013 at 6:22 PM
Second game in a row O's had a 2 and 3 run homers against Tigers

Exposremains–yes. That is word for word what RIzzo started off with in answer to a caller's question about Eckstein. Later he moderated it a bit with yada how hard Eck works, responsibilities of the hitters, exactly what Eck does, etc.
- natsfan1a - Jun 19, 2013 at 6:33 PM
I think that may have been a cannibalism allusion from sec3 in re. the "eat face" slogan.
- JamesFan - Jun 19, 2013 at 6:34 PM
Espinoza's man-crush on the Chiefs' hitting coach is a shot at Eckstein on the way out the door. This is just another excuse. I like everything about Kobernus but the tats. He looks smooth in the outfield and comfortable at the plate. I would like to see him get some at bats to see what he can do.

- Caps Fan - Jun 19, 2013 at 7:35 PM
Yes. Rizzo has fired a hitting coach. Who was it? Lenny Harris. What was his crime? His "coaching" consisted of playing cards with players in the clubhouse.There is absolutely no chance Rizzo fires Eckstein.

"The [secular] sense of right and wrong is so delicate, so fitful, so easily puzzled, obscured, perverted, so subtle in its argumentative methods, so impressionable by education, so biased by pride and passion, so unsteady in its course, that in the struggle for existence amid the various exercises and triumphs of the human intellect, the sense is at once the highest of all teachers yet the least luminous."
