Is there any basketball team with a bigger home court advantage than the Jayhawks?
Asked at Shell, 1733 Mass. on February 12, 2005
"No one has more commitment than KU's fans and alumni. Duke might come in a distant second."
"I think we have the best, loudest and most hostile environment for teams to play in. Second is Chapel Hill and then the Pit in New Mexico."
"I don't know. I haven't been to that many stadiums, but the Fieldhouse gets really loud."
"No, I don't think so. We're pretty wild here. The fans take their basketball to heart."

I haven't had the experience of going to a game yet, but hope to one day.
I watch at home and everyone looks like they are having a blast.
I would love to take my little one to a game, but the tickets can be quite expensive. If we did go to a game I would like to have good seats so he can see the court.
Au_contraire 11 years, 6 months ago
Allen Fieldhouse and I are the same age. We both made our debut within a few months of each other. Sometimes I get confused as to who is which.
I haven't always had the home court advantage. There was that home winning streak during the eighties when Larry was here and KSU came in and messed it all up. After the busses departed for Manhattan, the place was an eerie quiet. Fogg Allen was scowling.
He's usually such a jovial fellow. I think that's maybe because he doesn't have to cough up four times his salary to the Williams Fund for good seats.
missmagoo 11 years, 6 months ago
I was thinking that the only way Allen Fieldhouse could get any better is if they wrapped the student section around the court like Duke does. It would only make things that more intimidating.
But yes, AF is the ultimate experience.

While I think there are many more important issues....the answer is PERISH THE THOUGHT.
remember_username 11 years, 6 months ago
It was a "few" years ago and I had never been to a basketball game before. On my fortieth birthday some of my students supplied the ticket, arranged the waiting process, and herded me to a seat about three rows back in the student section.
Waiting at the entrance before the door opened, surrounded by crazed creatures half my age, took me all the way back to 1974, California Jam, and 200,000 rockers. This day at Allen Field house was the same; surrounded so close it was impossible to fall down. I remember commenting to no one in particular "I can't move, I can't even get my hand out of my pocket - oh wait, that's not my pocket".
Then comes the rush near at door, moving from the dark to the bright lights of arena. The sense of excitement mixed with a feeling that you've been swallowed by a living shrine. Watching the students around me so I could properly follow all the traditions, the newspapers, confetti, always ALWAYS standing, the waves, the shouts, and the stomping. Stomping so loud I was afraid the roof would fall in, and so fast my heart picked up its rhythm and I felt a sense of euphoria from the rush. Wow!
There was much more and like 1974 it is kind of a blur, the Jayhawks won of course I remember that. But man, what a birthday experience, what a memory it is. I feel sorry for all those other people who attended their first basketball game in some lesser venue. To see your first game elsewhere would be like losing your virginity to a prostitute regret always your first time wasn't in Allen Field House.

The AF is just one of those places that opponents dread coming to. It's loud and it's intimidating!! GO HAWKS!!!
brad 11 years, 6 months ago
Allen is so amazing because the Phog Phanatics actually understand the game. I love when thousands of people all scream "WALK" when they see an opponent traveling, or when the place gets going on a good defensive play. Any fan can get riled for a dunk, but in the Fieldhouse, the game of basketball is revered.
I will say I think the Dukies are slightly more hardcore since they have to camp in the cold. But many editorials about Cameron suggest that the fans spend so much time "being part of it" they sometimes miss the action on the court.
Au_contraire 11 years, 6 months ago
I'll tell you one reason Allen Fieldhouse has a home court advantage: Mizzou is finishing OT against OK and KSU is in OT with Texas. Jayhawks are into the first few minutes of the game against CO and...
mom_of_three 8 years, 9 months ago
Even the experts agree that Allen Fieldhouse is one of the best places to play in the nation. Duke's arena has the fans closer, which would be great to do here, but almost impossible.
Went with my mom to her first game at Allen last year, and she couldn't believe the noise level, after watching it on tv all those years..

All roads lead to Rome, except the one my friend and I accidentally took, which led us to this godforsaken town called Palestrina, which we ended up in because we flew on a budget airline and landed in one of those secondary airports way the hell on the outskirts of the city you actually want to be in, and we were distracted because neither of us drives stick-shift well, but, in all fairness, Palestrina itself is fine, it's more that James isn't the kind of guy you want to go on vacation with because he can't turn a series of mishaps into a fun adventure, so we spent the whole night in some overpriced pension not speaking to each other.

Fred the K-9 pink-slipped by Miss. police
City paid $12,000 to $13,000 for Fred two years ago. That included his training at K-9 Unlimited, considered an excellent school for turning out top dogs
The Sun Herald
GULFPORT, Miss. — As police K-9s go, Fred's a dud.
The Gulfport Police Department is sending the Belgian Malinois back from whence he came, U.S. K-9 Unlimited in Kaplan, La., Chief Leonard Papania said.
Fred was given the chance to turn things around, Papania said. It just wasn't happening.
He said the city paid $12,000 to $13,000 for Fred two years ago. That included his training at K-9 Unlimited, considered an excellent school for turning out top dogs.
"We'll get some of our money back for the dog when we bring him back to the facility," Papania said. "I can't speak specifically about what will happen with Fred. I can tell you nothing terrible will happen to Fred."
Fred can sniff out drugs. He can patrol. But he gets ... distracted. In searching a building, he might spy a soda can on the floor and start playing with it.
The Police Department has tried to train this out of him. He's been back to school. It just wasn't working.
Tuesday afternoon, the City Council unanimously approved a resolution that declared Fred to be surplus property. Council action allows the Police Department to sell Fred back to K-9 Unlimited, whose owner has not returned a telephone call from the Sun Herald.
Fred will be missed.
"Your K-9 handlers do have a bond with these animals," Papania said. "They spend a lot of time with them. These animals are kept in their homes. You do have that working bond. But they also are aware of the ultimate responsibility we have with these animals."

A teenager has been taken to hospital suffering from serious foot and facial injuries after being hit by a bus near East Croydon station.
The 16-year-old girl was treated at the scene in George Street by an ambulance crew before being taken to St George's Hospital, Tooting, as a priority.
Two fire engines and a fire rescue unit were called to the accident at 12.29pm to free the youth from under the vehicle.
But they left the scene about 10 minutes later because she was not trapped.
Part of the road was cordoned off by police while emergency services were at the scene.
Witnesses said they feared the teenager had been killed in the collision.
Danielle Uan Ommeren, aged 21, said: "I just came back from my lunch break and saw the ambulance parking. The was a woman on her knees screaming to another woman under the bus.
"They put up a sheet around where she was lying on the ground. It did not look good."
Daniel King, 25, who manages nearby second-hand entertainment store Cex, described the road was an accident blackspot.
He said: "We see a lot of accidents here. Pedestrians have been hit crossing the road. I must have seen about three in the last year."

I'm sitting in a hotel room in downtown Sydney wondering what the hell I'm doing.
Last week, The Kid and Little Brother and I were driving to TK's school, our typical frenetic routine in place. I was yearning for some peace, some reassurance about the trip that The Husband and I would be making in a few days: a frenetic plan itself, globe-hopping to another hemisphere, the upside-down to our right-side-up, fourteen hours ahead and half a world away. I was wondering if we should update our will (we don't have a will), get it in writing that The Sis would take our kids if something happens to us (I think I have an email or text somewhere to that effect), spending my last moments before drifting off to sleep suddenly and consumingly grateful for the mere feet separating me from my sleeping sons in their beds across the hall. On this morning, desperate and hungry for peace, I looked ahead through the windshield and saw the light through the trees. I stopped breathing for a second.
All down the road ahead of me, rays of light cast their beams, waves and particles gathering visibly only because they were traveling through something–spaces between leaves, around branches, dusty pollinated air, gray and scattered clouds. Blake's verse came to mind, the one that can't leave me even when my grocery list and name do: "And we are put on earth a little space/That we may learn to bear the beams of love."
We feel that we are being called to a different space by a love that operates outside of our comfort zones, our familiar patches of geography, our personal plans. Cut to me crying alone in a Sydney hotel room, wondering if I'm reading that calling correctly.
I moved to New York eleven years ago in an act of desperation that could have been interpreted as reckless; my father sure thought it was after that first tax return. I came away from that island with a newfound faith, enduring friendships, and a husband. Not bad for five years' exile. Now I'm sitting on an island that is a continent that is ten times as far from home as New York was, only this time around I have two boys and their lives to consider. Am I being stupid? Is this even doable? I went to lunch this morning with a fellow mom who fits all the parameters of New Friend; TH and I stopped by for a glass of wine last night with a New York acquaintance whose husband is a pastor here. I ALREADY HAVE A PASTOR. TWO IN FACT. I LIKE THEM VERY MUCH, GOD. WHY ARE YOU MESSING WITH THAT? We talked and laughed last night; today we ate and related, and it was all quite pleasant, and now I want to throw up, because this is getting very real. How is TK going to react to such a colossal, daily change? Am I giving him enough credit, or just using him as an excuse? Can someone time travel three years into the future and let me know that this is the best thing we ever did so that I can finally have a normal poop and a peaceful night's sleep?
This all may sound very ungrateful coming from someone who is being afforded the opportunity to live within minutes of beautiful beaches in year-round temperate weather on a company's dime. But this is how I need to process such a change, through the highs and lows of emotional recognition, the nausea-inducing taxi ride from the airport (I do know this from thirty-nine years of life: never interpret a city based on the ride from the airport) and the run along the harbor with the view of the Opera House and botanical gardens. I need to ride the waves that are appearing to lift us out of the life we know and into the one we are called to, the one being written by a love whose beams I am constantly relearning how to endure, a love that sends me on a reckless trip halfway across the world and gathers clouds just so I can see its light on a typical Tuesday morning, leaving the path we're on full of so many unknowns even while the road ahead is scattered with illumination.

More Michael Wilbon: Search | Chats | @RealMikeWilbon
Mike Wilbon (1:42 PM)
Hi Everybody! Welcome back to the Chat...I know, I know...we were supposed to resume after a little summer break this week BUT given the circumstances of the Little League World Series and Team USA in basketball and all the other stuff going on I decided I ought to jump back in now. It's not your father's August sports scene...Today feels like Labor Day Tuesday used to feel...so here we go!
Rob (San Antonio)
Mr. Wilbon, you got to feel bad for Sam Bradford. TWO years in a row!! Do you think his career will come back from this?
Mike Wilbon (1:50 PM)
Of course, I feel bad for Bradford...Goodness, to miss so much time back-to-back like this threatens any career, and to have to come back from such a serious injury and re-injury. It's like asking if I felt sorry for Derrick Rose, who had something similar if not identical, having missed almost all of two seasons with knee injuries. Because of the nature of football contracts, relative to basketball contracts, Bradford has probably taken his last snap with St. Louis because he counts something like $16 million against the salary cap next year and the Rams can't take a chance on a guy who takes up that much cap space...He's going to have to try and pick up his career somewhere else, most likely. Good for Bradford that he made that huge bonus money ($50-plus million) at the beginning...But I hope the best for Bradford, that the advances in medicine and technology and training will work in his favor and he can have a productive career going forward...
Davis (Boston)
Is everyone in Chicago holding their breath every time Derrick Rose touches the ball?
Mike Wilbon (1:58 PM)
Yes. Hell yes. God, yes. Yes. For the first time in awhile Rose was knocked off the lead sports story perch by the Jackie Robinson West little league team, which had a surreal impact on metropolitan Chicago. I was there over the weekend and I couldn't have imagined people would respond to that team the way they did...Everybody...black, white, young, old, rich, poor, baseball fans and non-baseball fans...It's the first time all summer Rose wasn't the No. 1 sports story in Chicago...That was going to change anyway on Sept. 7 when the Bears open the season with the Bills...BUT Rose is the story now...and he will be because of the way he played when he was healthy, because he's FROM CHICAGO, because the Bulls could reach the NBA Finals for the first time ever without Michael Jordan if Rose stays healthy and can play as he did 10 days ago for Team USA...I told Coach Thibs this last week and he had that exhale like he wanted to shout at me, "STOP IT...WE CAN"T GO ON THIS WAY" and I understand that sentiment as a coach. Thibs HAS to get past it...But the rest of us can't...and won't be able to...
James (Gurnee)
I hope the mothership is happy in two years when John Manziel joins Tebow on the set of the SEC network.
Mike Wilbon (2:03 PM)
HA! I hope you're wrong. I really do. I am so sick of our (OUR, the entire network and that includes necessarily PTI) obsession over Johnny Football...But I think he could be pretty good in the NFL, meaning I trink he can play fior 10 years...I think he's better than, say, Mark Sanchez, and Sanchez is playing in about his 6th season, right? And went to 2 conference title games...so I think Manziel can be a player, a real player...But I also understand how we in media--all media--have made people kinda sick of him...
James (Gurnee)
Can you tell me why the talking heads love to say NATIONAL FOOTBALL LEAGUE so much? Is this mandated when you enter the Bristol cult?
Mike Wilbon (2:07 PM)
Thank you for asking that. I hate it. HATE IT. And it has nothing to do with Bristol. Listen to Fox, to CBS, to NBC, to the NFL Network...They all do it...as if to make it sound more dramatic or as if the emphasize that the people who played should say the word "football" hundreds of times per day. I've noticed it for 20 years, and increasingly the last 6 or 7...like there's a memo that goes out to all former players who go to the booth or a studio. I'm now a talking head and damn if I say it...Of course, I'm not in Bristol either...But it's a football thing, not at all unique to heads on this here network...
David (Omaha, NE)
Mr. Wilbon - Nebraska has a running back (probably redshirting this year) named Mikale Wilbon, from Chicago. Now, how could a four-star recruit with almost the same name not go to Northwestern?
Mike Wilbon (2:08 PM)
You think I didn't look into this when he was in high school??? Trust me, I did...I stopped short of stalking...(LOL) But just let me say he's a really smart kid and I have a vested interest in how he does...and friends at Nebraska who will keep me informed of every detail...
Jay (Toronto)
Everyone is hyping the Bears as a sleeper team due to the Trestman factor. Their backup RB is Shaun Draughn and 3rd WR is Santonio Holmes. Good luck.
Mike Wilbon (2:14 PM)
Yeah, I think I'm with you. I'm fine with Holmes, a Super Bowl MVP just 30 years old, as the No. 3 wide receiver because Brandon Marshall and Alshon Jeffery are BEASTS...I think they make up the best WR tandem in the NFL. I'm not talking about fantasy numbers, I'm talking about impact, the ability to change a football game. With Matt Forte and Marty Bennett I'm really excited about that offense.......but terrified about the defense and downright scared to watch the Bears special teams. The defense at least COULD get better quickly. But the special teams look like the worst such unit in the NFL. ALL of the specials (except my man Robbie Gould) look dreadful, bordering on incompetent...How can you be a sleeper when 2/3 of the team look subpar? I'm readjusting everything I thought after watching them bumble and stumble out in Seattle the other night. Look, Seattle is the champ. They're great and they were playing at home with purpose and passion. But the Bears looked unprepared. Maybe that game was just what they needed. But I need to see Marc Trestman rally his team and really play with that Seattle-like purpose and passion Week 1 against Buffalo at home because they schedule is beastly and the defense and special teams look amateurish...I'm worried increasingly that the upside could be 8-8, maybe 9-7...and that's the UPSIDE...I hope I'm dead wrong...
Derrin (Plano, TX)
What did you think of Michael Sam's mocking of, or having fun with, Johnny Football?
Mike Wilbon (2:14 PM)
That it was absolutely fine and totally in context.
Matt (DC)
So is Washington's head set to explode with ANOTHER Quarterback controversy? Can the Redskins, and their media, get out of their own way?
Mike Wilbon (2:18 PM)
No. Not at all...Great question. One answer: No. Hell no. I woke up 8ish this morning and turned on local radio and it sounded like there was a funeral somebody was presiding over. Week 3 preseason, and the sky is falling and RG3 should be traded...Luckily, I have my own shaky team (Bears) to obsess over so the Redskins are no longer my daily concern...though I do root for Ryan Clark and Barry Cofield and Pierre Garcon and YES, RG3 (i love the kid)...But I think the Redskins are going to win the NFC East...I think there will be tiresome drama every day of the season because this is what the Redskins have become all about in recent seasons BUT I think the Redskins will beat out the Eagles to finish atop the division...And I bet most people reading this answer think I'm nuts...
Ben (Baton Rouge, LA)
Mr. Wilbon, love your work. Do preseason games have any significance whatsoever, outside of major, long term injuries? Specifically, it is time for Bears fans to PANIC over what happened on Friday?
Mike Wilbon (2:22 PM)
Great question. Teams go winless and win Super Bowls. It's happened more than once. Teams win 3 0f 4 in preseason and go 4-12...Heppens...So I am aware of the exceptions and aware of the trends and can make the case that the other night in Seattle meant nothing...But I don't believe that. I believe the Bears special teams and defense were shown to be awful...and I don't think a great offense can overcome bad defense AND specials...One or the other, yes. But the Bears will have to score 35 a game to make up for the D and specials and that's a lot to ask...I stayed through that entire game to try and get a guage on whether they have the sense of purpose a team needs to get through something like that...I don't know...We'll start to find out next week...But again, you look like that, no matter the opponent, and its reason to worry...even coming off the preseason...
Steve (Appleton)
The Bears finish ____ games behind the Pack?
Mike Wilbon (2:23 PM)
3...Pack goes 11-5 and Bears go 8-8...
Tony (Richmond, CA)
Do you think the two additional sacks by Michael Sam versus Cleveland make it almost possible for the Rams to cut him unless he falls flat on his face in Game 4?
Mike Wilbon (2:24 PM)
I didn't think and don't think Michael Sam will be cut, no matter what he does in Game 4. I don't. I think he makes the team. Jeff Fisher picked him and Jeff Fisher will keep him. That's been my feeling from Day 1. Now, he cold go on the practice squad but I think he'll belong to the Rams...AND I don't actually think he'll be on the practice squad; I think he makes the active roster.
Jay (Toronto)
If you are a teen product, do you get Mo'ne Davis to be an endorser? If you are Mo'ne's parents, do you accept?
Mike Wilbon (2:24 PM)
wouldn't she lose her amateur eligibility by doing that?
Heath (Dallas)
Mike, thanks for your great work. If you were to build a team from scratch -- any sport -- who is the GM in whom you have the most confidence?
Mike Wilbon (2:28 PM)
I'd hire Bill Polian to build my football team...I'd hire Theo Epstein to build my baseball team (yes, I LOVE what he's done/doing with the Cubbies)...and to build my basketball team there are several people but I'd probably start with R.C. Buford of the Spurs...There are several NBA GMs whose work I really, really like but Buford at the top of a group of very good club executives.
Mike Wilbon (2:30 PM)
Oh, and a Mr. Stan Bowman to build my championship NHL team...but of course...
Jay (Toronto)
Re: Mo'Ne, yes she would lose her amateur eligibility but the question is: do you strike while the iron is hot and capitalize on her fame? Or hope that she makes it eventually by earning an athletic scholarship, Olympics...etc.
Mike Wilbon (2:32 PM)
Well, I take her at her word when she says she wants to play point guard for Geno at UCONN...I believe that. It's not like she has no future. She's a bright kid with some ambition and clearly some athleticism...
Matt (DC)
Yea Wilbon, I heard Andy and Kevin this morning too. Maybe it's time you make another appearance and knock some sense into them.
Mike Wilbon (2:33 PM)
Ha! I love those guys...But everybody is so over the top here, so breathlessly insane on every single point about the Redskins...But I just don't pay enough attention to the Redskins anymore, after 16 years of covering essentially every single game as a columnist for The Washington Post...so they won't be calling me for Redskins analysis, nor should they...But I do marvel at the hysteria here even after 34 years of living in metropolitan D.C.
Geno Auriemma (Connecticut)
She might lose her amateur status, but by the time she gets to college we in the power 5 will be paying players anyway, won't we?
Mike Wilbon (2:33 PM)
Damn...Now, there's a good point...
Mike (Chicago)
In Peter King's piece today, he printed Ditka's and Mike Carey's news making quotes about Washington's team name side by side. I very much think the team name should be changed but I'm willing to listen to the other side's arguments. If Ditka's tantrum is the extent of their argument, then Snyder et al are in trouble. Is this issue getting as much play in D.C. as it seems to nationally?
Mike Wilbon (2:36 PM)
Great question...I travel a ton and suddenly (when in Arizona and particularly in Chicago where I sit in with Waddle & Silvy every week on ESPN 1000) I find this is a relatively new subect that carries some heat, some passion with listeners. I've been writing/talking about this topic for 30 years...granted increasingly in D.C. too...But nationally, there's a fascination with the issue I have not seen until now and this is part of the Redskins issue. Suppose the team is good enough and reaches the Super Bowl. Can you imagine the uproar for 2 full weeks? The NFL powers would lose their minds, completely unable to control the direction of the conversation...
Matt (DC)
Remember my question (SHOUT OUT!) when the RG3 spot comes on the run down during Headlines on PTI.
Mike Wilbon (2:37 PM)
Oh, goodness...I can promise you that already. Hell, I KNOW we're talking about that today and I haven't even consulted with my PTI producers just yet about said rundown...
Jake (Denver, CO)
How do you fix Team USA for the FIBA World Cup? If top pros are going to consistently drop out and leave the team hanging at the last minute, should they be building a roster with younger, hungrier players?
Mike Wilbon (2:38 PM)
Maybe...Maybe...You raise a good and fair point and I wouldn't object to that. BUT, let's see how this goes. Let's see what this team is able to do even with no LeBron/Durant/Bosh/Love/Wade/Kobe etc...I'm curious. I like this team that Coach K and his staff and USA Basketball have put together...
Jay (Toronto)
Did you see that your boy Tiger fired his coach. Thoughts?
Mike Wilbon (2:38 PM)
Yes I did see that. Why does Tiger need a coach when he's not playing and won't really be playing until The Masters?
Jake (Denver, CO)
Welcome back to the chats, Mr. Wilbon! Been dying to ask you your opinion on Durant (and others) backing out on Team USA for FIBA World Cup play. I know that Paul George's gruesome (which is an understatement) accident can't help, but do you think players should be more willing to represent their country? Thanks as always.
Mike Wilbon (2:44 PM)
This is an increasingly difficult call, with the injuries and concern expressed by owners like Mark Cuban...I talked to any number of players last week at the exhibition in Chicago vs. Brazil who were excited about playing in these international tournaments. I think world basketball benefits tremendously from the best players in the world, NBA players, being involved. Their inclusion is a big reason why world basketball spiked in the years after the 1992 Barcelona Olympics...I suppose there could be a team of under-24 players who ARE NBA players and that team could be put together when those kids are 19 and stay together and that might both serve the country, international basketball and the players...This probably has to evolve from where it is now...But I, personally, have loved seeing the A-team in there every competition since 1992...
Mike Wilbon (2:45 PM)
Okay, I gotta run and prepare for PTI, the first PTI with the original hosts in weeks and weeks...We're on the Deuce since the U.S. Open is on the Mothership, but you can find us. Have a great week...See you Tuesday, the day after Labor Day, when we can jump both feet into real football, both college and pro...

Boys baseball: Bruins enjoy their double-double
It's not likely that Wilson will go into Moore League baseball play Tuesday with anything less than a full effort.
But the Bruins were as busy as an In-N-Out this past week.
After finishing 4-1 in the tough Loara Tournament a week ago, including a March 15 loss to Vista Murrieta in the title game, the Bruins split a doubleheader on Tuesday with Downey and came back with a doubleheader Saturday with games at two locations.
They met La Quinta in the morning and coasted to an 8-2 win, with Chris Betts going 2 for 4 with two RBI in the victory.
Coach Andy Hall got seven solid combined innings from pitchers Jack Williford, Jay Rohman and Cesar Gomez.
They then hit the road to Redondo High for a nightcap against Agoura in the host's weekend tourney, winning 1-0 in an arm-stretching 12 innings.
A.J. Dean pitched eight strong innings, allowing seven hits. Josh Goldberg came in for 32/3 innings of relief, striking out seven and allowing one hit.
Will Johnston came in to get the last out of the 12th inning.
In the bottom of the 12th, Goldberg was hit by a pitch and scored on Max Cauble's RBI single.
The Bruins open Moore League play Tuesday at Blair Field against Jordan.
Fountain Valley 7, Los Alamitos 4: The Griffins, who reached the Division 1 semifinals last season, sent ace Jacob Nix to the mound Friday in the opener of Sunset League play. Fountain Valley was ready for him, gathering six hits and four earned runs before ending his day in the fifth inning.
Fountain Valley's Brock Lundquist, a 2015 signee for Long Beach State, had a two-run double in the second, and the Barons added three more runs in the fifth. The Griffins' Darren McCaughan, also a Dirtbag commit, had a two-run double in a four-run sixth inning to cut the Barons' lead to a run.
"We know he throws hard," Fountain Valley shortstop Daniel Patzlaff said of Nix, "so in practice we pumped up the pitching machine a little bit. We sat on his fastball because we knew it was going to come."
The Griffins bounced back Saturday with a 5-3 win over Serra in the Redondo Tournament.
West Torrance 5, Lakewood 3: The Lancers were held to two hits in suffering just their second loss of the young season.
Mayfair takes two: The Monsoons, heavy favorites to repeat as Suburban League champs, took two from Lynwood, Ray Gaylord getting the win in the 10-3 first game decision and Michael Agramonte taking the W in the 6-1 win in the nightcap.
Jordan splits: Michael Hurtado picked up his fourth win of the season in a 3-0 win over Hacienda Heights Wilson on Saturday, going four innings before turning things over to Dom Marquez. Wilson took the second game, 7-4.

Did Mitt Romney, the likely Republican presidential nominee, just have his "John Kerry moment" of the 2012 campaign?
White House / Pete Souza
It's expected that the people who brought you President Barack Obama, including the commander in chief himself, would be shifting into attack mode in preparation for the height of campaign season, and their main target is looking a lot like Mitt Romney.
By Mike Luckovich
He has been crafty in the way he has sought the political middle ground. He has emphasized his "values" and touted his patriotism, his call to service and his faith. That is quite different from backing off from his core promises.

Capping off a week of disappointments for his progressive supporters, Barack Obama backed away from the idea of a timely withdrawal of U.S. forces from Iraq, a signature plank in his campaign. "And when I go to Iraq and have a chance to talk to some of the commanders on the ground," explained Obama, "I'm sure I'll have more information and will continue to refine my policies." Update: Obama clarifies.
You've probably heard by now that John McCain has been less than consistent since he decided he really wanted to be president. Assembled by the Brave New folks, here are some prime examples of McCain flip-floppery at its best.
The first Republican debate was like a first date, with the presidential candidates behaving politely and saying things they could all agree on, like "Ronald Reagan and tax cuts are great, don't you think?" But by the second debate, it's clear these guys aren't relationship material. Here are some highlights, including Rudy Giuliani attacking Ron Paul for making sense.

Gabriel Aubry Says Halle Berry's Allegations Are 'Untrue and Irresponsible'
Halle Berry's ex-boyfriend has issued a statement about his custody battle over the former couple's daughter Nahla. Model-turned-restaurateur Gabriel Aubry and the actress split last year and recently entered into a bitter legal battle over their three year old.
Berry has hinted that she worries about her daughter when she's in the Canadian's care, while the sexy hunk has fired back with claims his ex disappeared for days at a time while he was on set with her and his daughter in London and South Africa while the actress was shooting a movie. The battle has become so bitter that Berry has pulled out of comedy movie "New Year's Eve" to focus all her attention on the custody fight.
And now Aubry has released an official comment via his representative at Wilhelmina Models. The statement sent to Access Hollywood reads, "While Gabriel is disappointed in Halle's decision to falsely malign him publicly and for her own purposes, he refuses to be pulled into her dispute over a canceled film production."
"Gabriel also refuses to air their issues in the press as he believes this may ultimately harm their daughter. The fact is that Gabriel is a caring father who shares custody of Nahla. Gabriel fully believes that a consistent and balanced living situation and two loving parents are crucial for their child even if Ms. Berry feels otherwise. He will always defend his rights as a father and will always consider Nahla's best interest. Halle's continuing allegations in the press are untrue and irresponsible."
Berry's representative previously issued a statement, confirming the actress "was forced to pull out of a film production in New York... due to pending custody litigation involving her daughter. "She has attempted to resolve these custody issues amicably with her daughter's father, Gabriel Aubry, directly, but given his lack of co-operation, Halle has no choice but to seek swift judicial intervention."
"Halle has serious concerns for her daughter's well-being while in the care of her father for any extended period of time and is prepared to take all necessary steps to protect her. Halle has always made the needs and safety of her daughter her first priority and, both while Halle and Gabriel were a couple and since their break-up, Halle has only acted in her daughter's best interest."
In December 2010, Aubry filed paperwork in Los Angeles, asking a judge to formally recognize him as the father of Nahla.

Floating book fair with over 7000 titles comes to Abu Dhabi
ADACH hosts Logos Hope ship's visit to Abu Dhabi next month to promote cultural dialogue, exchange through reading.
Middle East Online
ABU DHABI – The Abu Dhabi Authority for Culture and Heritage (ADACH) is hosting the M V Logos Hope ship visit to Abu Dhabi from February 7 to 19, 2011.
The event comes in line with ADACH aims to spread the great values of tolerance, cultural dialogue and exchange through reading.
Logos Hope was constructed in 1973 and first named Gustav Vasa. Originally built as a passenger car ferry, the vessel sailed North Atlantic routes. In 1983, the ship changed hands to the Smyril Line, was renamed Norröna and sailed between the Faroe Islands and Denmark. By 2004 GBA Ships e.V. (previously Good Books for All) had raised sufficient funds to acquire the vessel and she underwent extensive renovations for her new role. The word Logos is Greek, traditionally meaning 'word, thought, principle or speech'.
GBA Ships e.V. is a non-profit organisation based in Germany which operates ships that sail around the world to bring knowledge, help and hope. Since 1970 those ships, known for their floating book fairs, have made over 1,400 port visits in 162 countries and territories and welcomed over 40 million visitors on board.
The Logos Hope crew and staff consist of up to 400 volunteers from around 50 different nations.
The flouting Book Fair will include many activities that reflect Emirati authentic heritage and traditions. Folk dance groups will perform Ayalla, the popular traditional dance in UAE. Visitors will be welcomed with traditional Arabic coffee and dates. School visits will organise activities on the ship in the persons of Hamdoon the cartoon character.
ADACH will organise a tour for the ship crew to Abu Dhabi's landmarks such as Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque, Zayed Al Adil Center, Zayed Museum and Al Jahili Fort in Al Ain, Yass Island and a desert safari trip.
Over 40 million visitors have passed through the onboard book fairs since the ships began sailing in 1970, a figure equivalent to roughly one in every 170 of the world's total population. Visitors to Logos Hope are offered a selection of about 7,000 titles for all the family across a wide range of categories, including science, sports, hobbies, cookery, the arts, economics, medicine, dictionaries, languages and philosophy.
Publishers often donate books that have been removed from circulation in first-world countries after new editions have been released. This allows Logos Hope to offer books at a fraction of their original cost to people in developing countries.
For each port visit, every effort is made to ensure that local language materials are available. These supplement the large selection of English books offered to visitors in every destination Logos Hope visits.
Apart from book sales, Logos Hope also extends literary aid to people in developing countries. Textbooks and reference volumes have been donated to individuals, schools, libraries, community groups, colleges and universities.

Hello. My fiance and I are taking our honeymoon to France and Italy this June with a 3 night stop on Eze. So far all we have planned is dinner one night in Monte Carlo and are looking for suggestions of activities for our two full days. We will wont to relax and tour Eze itself, but think it might be worth exploring other parts of the Riveria while we are there. We are considering taking a cab to Nice and exploring there, taking a wine tasting tour, or having a private tour in various locations such as Nice, Cannes, and Cap Antibes. I am wondering what is worthwhile and what we can do without our own car, either with a tour guide or just be taking a cab somewhere. It seems Eze it a little hard and expensive to reach so we want to make the most of our day if we venture. Any suggestions on sites, towns, or tour guides would be greatly appreciated! Thank you.

You should take a bus to Nice and spend at one day there, perhaps including dinner.Buses are used by most, are nice, dependable and only 1 Euro no matter how far. I was in Nice for two weeks last summer and never saw a taxi.
Antibes is lovely as is Cap Ferrat, my favorite.
You are spending a lot of time in a very small and hard to get to town. Perhaps you could have a rental car for some of the time.

St. Paul de Vence is nice.
Grasse is nearby and pretty much the home of French parfumeries.
The Picasso Museum is in Chateau Grimaldi in Cap D'Antibes. Well worth seeing. Here's a blurb on it. http://www.frenchriviera.com/story/Cap-dAntibes-Picasso-With-So-Much-History-and-Old-World-Charm/1163172
If you think the name Grimaldi rings a bell, it is the family name of the royalty of Monaco.

There is a fabulous restaurant in Eze (I forget what it is called) that is very well known and has spectacular views. You may wish to check it out.

If your objective is to do almost nothing, Eze Village is the right place. It is a tiny place where you can hit every side streets in about 3hrs. If you want to venture out without a car, you will find yourself bumping into the transportation issues. I do EZE as a half day trip from Nice when there is someone in our group who has not yet been there.
The bus to/from EZE is not that frequent.
NICE-EZE Village (not EZE station which is at sea level) #82 and #112.
Bus/Tram transit Nice city area:
Bus route around EZE:
Ligne Azur #82:Nice-Eze village
TAM #112: Nice-Eze-Monaco
In Cap Ferrat, there is http://www.villa-ephrussi.com/en/home. You can see Cap Ferrat from Eze.
While there is a taxi stop at Eze main road, I can't seem to find to when I need it. If you end up calling a taxi, the meter starts when the taxi was called, not when it reaches you.
There are two nice hotels at Eze, each with nice restaurants.
Chateau Eza http://www.chateaueza.com/entrance.html and Chateau de la Chevre d'Or http://www.chevredor.com/. The latter has several restaurants, but the one you want to try is Les Remparts serving lunch on terrace. It is a high end restaurant without the Michelin stars or the price. Stick with the fix menu of the day. Confusingly, there is a real Michelin 2 star restaurant in the same hotel called Chevre d'Or. This one is a very expensive restaurant but indoors with a view also.
Report Abuse
Where you will be staying for 3 nights? Inside Eze-Village at one of the 2 hotels mentioned above ( Chèvre d'Or & Château Eza ) or outside the village? Both has magnificent view over the sea and le Cap Ferrat. I had a glass of Rosé champagne at the terrace of le Chèvre d'Or a few years ago. It was €25.00 par glass ( ! ) but served with snacks in silverware. And it was a beautiful sunset hour. Expensive but I'm glad I did it then ( fortunately I was not paying...). Château Eza's restaurant/café also has very interesting settings, some semi private rooms/tables always with the gourgeous view.

"...the city was built on many levels, linked by stone bridges. But with the improvements in diet and corresponding increase in stature and strength of the populace, these bridges became too low, and the people would hit their heads. The bridges were eventually done away with in 1764, but the scars on the walls where they once jutted out remain, and in Low Bridge Street there is still one extant bridge, measuring about 6' high." - Chronicler Rasill, Mondopedia, Vol II (The Lands of Hyellia)
