The San Francisco 49ers drafted Owens out of the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga in the third round of the 1996 NFL draft. Despite an average career on the gridiron, the Niners selected the "Mouth of the South" in the earlier rounds of the draft because he was a physical marvel who had also excelled playing basketball and running track at UTC.

One highlight I can truly say was watching Mike Singletary take over as coach of the San Francisco 49ers. It did my heart good to see an old school Gridiron great out there coaching the old school way. Say what you will, I loved it.

He just keeps ticking, worn out old Greg Maddox won his 18th Gold Glove this past week. 

The playoff seedings in the MLL are set now.  Argonaut as the number one seed gets the 3rd place team in the WAC, Calaveras in the number 2 spot gets to drive down to Escalon and Summerville travels to Modesto for a game with Central Catholic.  Prospects don't look too good for an advance to the second round of any of the three teams, but as my good friend Ben always says, "You never know."

After another scary roller coaster ride on Wall Street last week, we at least have the weekend and sports to bring back some sanity to our life. Unless of course your motto is "Go Blue" and you hail from the great state of Northern Ohio or as most of you know it, Michigan.  Who says there's no such thing as karma?

With the MLB playoffs set to begin, there is a subtle difference in the air compared to start of any other postseason.

Likewise basketball fans always have the chance to see if the Suns can finally get past the Spurs and football fans love seeing the rivalry of the Eagles Vs the City of Philadelphia when the Eagles so much as get tackled for a loss.

Amongst a busy week in the life of The Moneyball- I did have to comment on this topic.
