The TEN
(“The Ten” is not a top ten, but ten items worth being included in The TEN)
1.) “He’s pretty fast, he’s a dynamic receiver. Great speed, great hands, great quickness. I think he can be very special. He’s just got to work, stay focused and, like I said, just put himself around positive people. But as far as talent-wise he has it all.”—St. Louis Rams cornerback Janoris Jenkins on rookie wide receiver Tavon Austin.
2.) Jacksonville Jaguars waive quarterback Jordan Rodgers out of Vanderbilt. Rogers is the younger brother of Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers.
3.) Ontario versus Northview; Thursday, August 29th (7:PM) at Covina District Field.
4.) “There is only ONE MAN who can judge us all… Ryan (Braun) by his own doing has lost his INTEGRITY and CHARACTER.. As a man, that’s everything.”—Reggie Miller
5.) First place Los Angeles Dodgers (51-47) would be in fourth place in NL Central, second place in NL East, third place in AL West, third place in AL Central, and fifth place in AL East.
6.) “Dolphins are just gay sharks.”—Jay Mohr on his Monday radio show.
7.) On this date in 1885 Ulysses S. Grant dies of throat cancer. Grant, the 18th President of the United States, led the Union Army to victory over the South in the Civil War.
8.) “RBIs are a product of guys getting on base in front of me and I had three guys who I felt like were on base every time I came up. Tonight was a great night for us because we got to see their entire bullpen. That should set us up well for the rest of the series, there won’t be any surprises.”—A.J. Ellis, after his big five-RBI night Monday in the Dodgers’ 14-5 win over Toronto.
9.) “The object of golf is not just to win. It is to play like a gentleman, and win.”— Phil Mickelson
10.) “Stop worrying about what he’s going to do to you and start worrying about what you are going to do to him! Get some cannons up here!”—Ulysses S. Grant to his staff at the Battle of the Wilderness as they began to panic about Southern General Robert E. Lee attacking.
