Gary Sheffield Released by Tigers

It didn't take long for the dominoes to start falling, in lieu of yesterday's trade for Josh Anderson. The Detroit Tigers released Gary Sheffield this morning, telling him they preferred a roster with more versatile players that could switch between positions. Sheff, as we know all too well, is pretty much restricted to playing DH, though he insisted all along he could still play the outfield. The Tigers are on the hook for the $14 million owed to Sheffield for this season. I have to say, I'm pretty stunned by this and didn't see it coming. A tip of the cap goes to Scott Warheit, who speculated such a move might occur (linked in today's Morning Prowl). This certainly allows the Tigers more lineup flexibility in terms of shuffling players around the outfield and DH spot. Sheffield looked...

Tony Bennett Leaves Washington State for Virginia

Have to admit that this was a move on the coaching carousel that was not expected. Tony Bennett turned down opportunities at Indiana and Marquette last year to stay in Pullman.He did that, despite knowing he was heading for a rebuilding year at Washington State. A year later, after his Cougars steadily improved and he showed once more why he is considered a rising star in the coaching ranks, Bennett chose to move across the country to take the Virginia head coaching job.This is not to knock Virginia (though I'm sure some will take it as such): The Hoos hit at least a triple in their coaching hire, but Virginia is not on the same level as Indiana is or even what Marquette had become, following the job by Tom Crean to build that program.Virginia has to compete in the ACC, and must recruit not...

Another sister, 9-year-old Serafina, suffered stab wounds.Police arrived at the Revelus home less than one minute after receiving a 911 call from Sarafina. They kicked in an upstairs door where Kerby Revelus, armed with a kitchen knife, grabbed his 5-year-old sister, Bianca, and decapitated her. He then turned the knife on 9-year-old Saraphina and began stabbing her. 17-year-old Samantha had already been stabbed to death in the same room.Police are heard on phone tapes of their arrival ordering Kerby Revelus to “Stop!”...

Dan Hicks Is NBC Sportscaster

Meet Dan Hicks, an American play-by-play sports anchor and sportscaster for NBC who primarily does commentary for golf. See a video and a biography of Dan Hicks here.Hicks is currently the NBC commentator for the on-going Arnold Palmer Invitational which was played at Bay Hill Club in Orlando, Florida. The tournament is special in the sense that Tiger Woods played in it. It’s not his comeback (it’s the second after he returned on the tour), but this tournament is something in which he’s been playing up to his reputation and he recently pulled off an exciting win to lift the title. Going into commercial breaks, Hicks said, “One of the greatest things on a golf course, a Tiger Sunday Charge,” and “Tiger Woods, just one stroke behind.” co-commentator Johnny Miller uttered.As a biography, Dan...

phantomalert.com: It's a great business idea... that could kill

I was torn between delight and dismay when I stumbled across PhantomAlert.com, the service that warns drivers about the location of speed cameras. On the one hand, it's a great business idea. PhantomAlert.com is a service-cum-social network. Users register the locations of speed cameras and sign up for alerts. It's a subscription model - $9.99 per month - and plugs into your GPS system, beeping when a traffic camera is coming up.The revenue model is solid. Users have to stay plugged into Phantom Alert as the service is constantly evolving. New speed cameras are added to the network hourly, and if old cameras move, you are kept in the loop. PhantomAlert.com also warns drivers about impending red light cameras, speed traps and DUI checkpoints.But is this new service slowing people down? Or helping...

Nebbish?

More than one reader has asked if the little guy in my profile is a Nebbish--one of those winsome curiosities created by the late Herb Gardner: as cartoons, later a comic strip, here as dolls (evidently a doll version came first (link)).The answer is, I think, "no." I pinched it off the (apparently home made) inter office memo stationery at a law firm where I worked in the 70s and early 80s. While it does indeed bear a resemblance to the famous Gardner creations, I think I can spot some telling differences. For one, as I recall Nebbishes always had their eyes closed; here, the eyes are pointy and piercing.But funny you should ask. As it happens, I knew Herb Gardner, and I was an observer (entirely accidental) at the incubation of the Nebbishes. Herb used to doodle them in his notebook as he...

yfz ranch: One-sided YFZ Ranch redux: Paul Anthony falls for West Texas CASA anniversary propaganda

I keep hoping the folks at the San Angelo Standard Times will get the hang of writing a balanced story on the YFZ affair. It would have been so easy for Paul Anthony to do just as the SPJ Code of Ethics requires: “Diligently seek out subjects of news stories to give them the opportunity to respond to allegations of wrongdoing.” But he didn’t.It is likewise inexplicable that the Salt Lake Tribune would reprint Anthony’s story, so clearly slanted against the FLDS and in favor of empowering the government to intervene in private lives, without bothering to talk with anyone in the FLDS community or with advocates of less government interference in family life. Anthony had a great “teachable moment” and fumbled it away.Among the more remarkable excerpts from Anthony’s account is this, in which...

annual credit report: Don't Pay for Your Free Annual Credit Report

The Federal Trade Commission is fighting back against advertisements that trick consumers into spending money on services they don't need or want when they're trying to get their free annual credit report. There is only one site that offers the annual credit report at no charge, and that is www.annualcreditreport.com.Eileen Harrington, acting director of the Bureau of Consumer Protection, says the FTC has received complaints about the website www.freecreditreport.com, which provides credit reports only if customers sign up for additional services that cost money. "Consumers are confused," says Harrington, despite the FTC's lawsuit and settlement with the website that now requires its advertisements to carry disclosures. She wouldn't comment on whether any further enforcement actions were pending.Check...

Wagville - We Mean Business: Wagville

Wagville is a Los Angeles doggie boarding and day care facility founded and run by Harvard grad and former lawyer Julie Shine. Like the other WMB subjects, Wagville isn’t making enough money. We quickly learn that: * The company does little to no retail business, despite having a large (and cluttered) storefront * Check-in takes minutes on a slow system * There are no facilities for people, just for the dogs * Employees are unmotivated and ill-tempered * Julie cannot motivate staff and may be a micromanager * There are 27 employees in a business that’s caring for no more than 60 dogs at any time, and the costs add up - in one month, Wagville did $90,000 in sales but had $65,000 in payroll and so couldn’t make a profit * Julie is focused on providing a service to dogs,...

The band even includes Plant-Krauss sidemen Stuart Duncan and Dennis Crouch (along with Jerry Douglas, the Dobro ace who has played with Krauss for more than a decade in Union Station) and has as its producer T-Bone Burnett, who guided Plant and Krauss to a big Grammy haul with their "Raising Sand" album.Costello and the Sugarcanes, who perform...
