Saturday Entry
I'm pretty much taking the weekend off. I made a commitment a couple of months ago to stop blogging on Sunday--kind of a blog Sabbath. Remember, blogs were made for man and not man for the blogs. In the meantime please go vote for Pat Tillman as Sports Illustrated Sportsman of the Year by clicking here. Tillman quit a lucrative job in the NFL to join the Army. He was killed fighting in Afghanistan. Vote early and vote often!

We need to fix that. Armstrong, although a great athlete, wouldn't even ride in the olympics for the U.S. The gymnast, whatshisname, is still in a debacle with the olympic judges.
We need a GOTV campaign.

Can u vote more than once then? Tillman should win, hands down. Anyone who gives up fame and fortune to fight for the cause is hero in my book.

Theanks for the link. I dont spend much time at SI. Tillman is right up there with Ted Williams (Ace in WW2 and Korea) as a *REAL* hero! IF I go back tommorrow I can vote again?

I'll tell you why he isn't winning. Because I don't even know what happened but it just told me I voted for Lance Armstrong. I didn't even know I was VOTING. I thought the VOTE button would take me to the actually poll, not that I was casting a vote for Lance just because his face came up first. That poll is set up pretty crappy.

Each of those athletes are just as good as the next, with each having just as compeling a life story/reasons to be the athlete of the year.
If anyone at a time when we are a strong nation looking for an uplifting moment there was no other moment for this country lately than when lance armstrong crossed the finish line in Paris. We were not divided by race, religion, creed or sex; we were Americans.

Yesterday, SI announced the Red Sox as Sportsmen of the Year.
What a crock!

Well, based on some of the comments above, there's two things I now understand.
First, Web Site designers aren't "Designers" . . . .
Two; I now understand what happened in Florida in the 2000 election . . . incompetent voters!
