Baldwin Park's James Heggins ready to get the Braves back into the playoffs

Baldwin Park's James Heggins is ready to get the Braves back into the playoffs

By Joe Torosian

Good Morning!

T-minus-51 until “The Mid Valley Classic”

I think the Dodgers are for real…

However, any pitcher that hits Manny ought to be forced to watch Nicholas Cage in “Knowing”… The only things worse than “Knowing” is the WNBA…

Usually I’m anti-attorney in most matters, but I hope former UCLA star Ed O’Bannon wins his suit against the NCAA for back pay in regards to his image and likeness…Actually I think he would do better with Elliott Ness and the Untouchables because the NCAA is a racket…Then again he seems willing to cross Capone…

Have you purchased your Sunday Ticket yet? Have you arranged for TiVo or DVR? May I ask what you are waiting for? If you’re waiting to see how the Denver Broncos do this preseason I’ll save you the time…they are going to stink…Its over in Denver…

If you didn’t get to see Baldwin Park’s James Heggins on the show last night check it out…I didn’t know he spent time in the CFL as well…great interview…

In a team loaded with a lot of physical talent Heggins said junior Mario Rodriguez was his most versatile…and perhaps his most passionate…

NewRam used the name Mel Counts in a comment yesterday…As someone actually blinded by Counts excessive whiteness as a kid, I’m this close to banning NewRam for even mentioning the Oregon/Laker product…

So as unemployment rolls into double digits San Diego State pitcher Stephen Strasburg and agent Scott Boras are seeking $50-million from the Nationals. The bad news for Strasburg is that Boras is in the throws of a losing streak that would make a Detroit Lions fan blush…

Then again in Washington $50-million can come with the snap of a finger or between the paragraphs of the latest health care bill…

(Are there any Detroit Lions fans?)

Montebello Oiler football wants love now…we say come on down…The only thing I can tell you is be careful…Andy Villathedevil is picking Montebello to win the Almont…A Villathedevil endorsement is equivalent to the kiss of death…

The Oiler not to overlook is running back Joe Marron, entering his third year as a starter.

Speaking of RB’s, I ask SG OC, Coach O; Should Fabian Amaro be getting more attention as the Mats lead back?

Stay thirsty my friends…
