Calkins rips Raines

And I am glad. I will admit --- I think she's even worse than the President when I was in school, Tom Carpenter. And that is one of the lowest insults I can think of.

He hits that charade of a study from two years ago. And before the Raines apologists chime in, I will never get past the deception of the whole thing.

"Auburn at Mississippi State (21). The Bulldogs beat down Memphis -- an alleged FBS team -- by 42 points Saturday. It was Mississippi State's biggest margin of victory in 12 years, dating back to the 1998 SEC West championship team coached by the charming Jackie Sherrill. That elevates the stature of this Thursday night game that hopefully will not be a replay of the last game between the two in Starkville: a 3-2 Auburn win in 2008."

Anyone going to the ODU game on Saturday?

I hope to be there with the family. Any predictions?

If we play to our potential it could be a really good game. If not it could be really ugly.

We played them very well last year at ODU. This was the surprise game of the year for me last year. I thought we would get stomped but we hung in there.

Farr is gone from the Dallas roster.

I don't keep up with the NFL that much, is there

Bernie: Ump Davidson a disgrace to the game

Bernie: Ump Davidson a disgrace to the game

BY BERNIE MIKLASZ | Posted: Wednesday, September 8, 2010 11:33 am

(AP photo)
Home-plate umpire Bob Davidson completes the "cycle" Tuesday night by ejecting a fan from the Cardinals-Brewers game. Davidson's crew earlier had ejected a manager, a coach and a player from the game.

If umpire Bob Davidson ejected that fan in Milwaukee on behalf of Cardinals catcher Yadier Molina, then it's wrong. So what if the fan bugged Molina? Fans heckling or needling players? This has been going on in baseball for quite some time now ... like, well, forever. Why would any player or umpire pay attention to it?

Really, it was no surprise to see Davidson make a spectacle and a fool of himself Tuesday night in Milwaukee. This is Davidson's game, remember. He apparently thinks fans pay good money to watch him work.

Davidson has a history of grandstanding to draw attention to himself, whether it be his incessant balk calls, his meddling into other umpires' calls, his rabbit ears, thin skin, and quick ejections.

Baseball players, managers and coaches have come to expect Davidson to hot-dog his way through games.

After being ejected by Davidson in a 1993 game, Philadelphia catcher Darren Daulton said of the ump: "He's one of those impact umpires. In my opinion the game was on ESPN and he couldn't wait to suit up and make an impact. He's one of those guys where you go into his house, there's lots of pictures of himself and none of his family."

Tuesday night, as soon as second-base umpire Tim Timmons made a controversial call -- ruling out Craig Counsell for sliding out of the basepaths -- I said to my wife: "No way Davidson will allow himself to be upstaged like that. Just watch."

And sure enough, Davidson went on to eject Cardinals pitching coach Dave Duncan, a Milwaukee center fielder Chris Dickerson, and even a fan. And his strike zone? Davidson was off all night. His strike zone was as wide and as out of control as his ego.

This is nothing new. It's business as usual. Davidson blew a call in the 1992 World Series, calling a runner safe at home when the runner (Deion Sanders) was clearly out. Davidson incorrectly took a HR away from Mark McGwire late in the 1998 season. Davidson embarrassed himself by blowing a call in a game between the U.S. and Japan in the 2006 World Baseball Classic.

More recently, Davidson cost the Florida Marlins a game with a bad fair/foul call that gave a win to Philadelphia.

I don't even know why I'm mentioning specific episodes; if I listed every call that Davidson got wrong I'd be typing for the next 48 hours at least. He's a disgrace to the game and has been for many, many years. Baseball people laugh at him.

But here's what worse: that MLB continues to employ this clown. Davidson is living proof of the low, almost non-existent, standards for MLB umpiring in today's game.

I'm surprised Davidson didn't eject Trevor Hoffman for stealing the spotlight while nailing down his 600th career save.

I little belated but I would like to eat my crow now. I said when he decided to tranfer to ECU that he wasn't very good, he had a wind-up, blah blah blah.

He made me eat my words on Sunday. VERY impressive performance. I thought ECU might struggle a bit this year because of the QB position but if Sunday was any implication, the Pirates are once again the favorites if they can sure up the D.

Buster,
