Naz. Will he see the field this season?

When I was growing up, I always thought the concept for a potential 7 game postseason series was to get your best pitcher to start game 1, 4, and 7. For example the 86 Mets and 87 Twins...88 Dodgers and As followed that concept as well. Why has that time come and gone? Why rely on that fourth and possibly a fifth starter to get you through? Is it impossible these days to consider getting your best starter on the mound as much as possible?

Trooper. I am not from the Knoxville area and didn't know what, if any, kind of drama was associated with his leaving. I assumed it was over not being the offensive coordinator. What happened? Was there more to it?

How much candy is there at the Rucker Ranch? How do you handle teens that ask for candy?

We haven't seen much Justin King on the field. I think he and the team may have been better off with him on defense. What's our opinion?

Should I wear orange to my interview tomorrow?

You get a glass of water a home. Do you reuse the glass later or get a new glass?

Mizzou fans are talking smack now after a Kentucky win. What should I retaliate with?

If RVP scores this weekend will I be able to hear you cursing 1,000 miles away up here in philly... Also who would you start at LB. Santos is awful and Gibbs is hurt. I'd personally move Sagna there and put Jenkinson at RB, your thoughts.
