The MVP trophy should reside in Minnesota after the year. Mauer, Morneau, Santana, you can't really go wrong.

If Gonzalez wants $2 to $3 million, I wouldn't be opposed to giving him a one year deal.

You indicated that the guy was Japanese, which he is. How exactly is that discrimination?

Sorry Freddy, but you're through seven without a baserunner.

That isn't true. Gabriel is a good size/speed WR, who has good hands. No one will mistake him for being an elite WR, but he is a pretty good number three WR. He would have gone to Miami, but since he isn't the sharpest of fellows, he had to settle for UCF. You could have made a trade with the Raiders, but they aren't trading a number one for Deion Branch. Besides, Jerry Porter could be made available. The Patriots could probably get him for a three or four. Why are you always so condescending to people who are younger than you are? Most of the people on this site have been watching football since the salary cap era. The New England Patriots are a playoff team. As long as Brady is under center, and that defense plays as well as they can, they'll be a playoff team. The team made two wise decisions. Givens, is not a number one WR, and the $25 million given to him may be one of the worst moves of the offseason. Branch, is not a $36 million dollar WR, the first round pick acquired for him may lead to a Ted Ginn Jr. type WR. The Patriots won three in four years, not what the NFL had in mind. The window is already closing. McGinest left, the two coordinators left, Law left, the team got older. The team is good enough to reach the playoffs, but they aren't winning a SuperBowl, with or without Branch. Yeah? Maybe the Seahawks could have used that money to re-sign Steve Hutchinson. They won't be running the ball down people's throats anymore. I'd be confused if I was a Seahawks fan, on why they insist on acquiring every number two WR on the market. They have Nate Burelson, and Bobby Engram. They need Deion Branch? Will the be able to keep Trufant, Hamlin, or Benard?

Bump this as soon as the Patriots turn into the 49ers. OH THE AGONY OF BEING A PATRIOT FAN!!!!!!!! THREE SUPERBOWLS IN FIVE YEARS!!!!

No freakin' doubt.

I don't know why Jeter would be the MVP. If the Yankees lost Jeter, they lose a talented player, but that team wouldn't stop hitting. Jeter has good numbers, but I have to believe their MVP is Johnny Damon. For the past two years they've had atrocious offensive and defensive centerfielders, Damon finally stablized the position, and is among the best CF's in the game. Anyway, I would select Johan Santana as the most valuable player*. Without him, they've got Carlos Silva as their ace. *Since no one picks pitchers, I'd go with Mauer or Morneau.

If they have a chance to go and get Dwayne Jarrett, Calvin Johnson, or Ted Ginn Jr, I would package both those picks to move up.

I can't wait until "Jacked Up!" They'll run endless highlights of Trent Green, and that kid who got beat down by the coach.

What is this "baseball", you speak of?

There's football outside of Foxboro you know. Reggie Wayne may be the best route runner in Indiana, that includes his counterpart. He's also probably one of the better possession WR's in the NFL. The two both probably run about the same forty time. You put Wayne in Foxboro, he puts up better numbers than Branch. Fairly conservative offensives don't throw the football 530 times in a year. (Almost 80 times more then the Colts) He's had Edge, and Harrison to compete against. You listed quantity over quality. Brown's been on the decline since '02, Bethel Johnson was a huge bust who never was to be considered a WR, and Faulk? He's a RB, WR don't compete for playing time with RB's. Steve Smith Torry Holt Anquan Boldin Larry Fitzgerald Chad Johnson Branch isn't even close to the class of these guys. Good move by the Patriots.

Huh? Wha?

Here's hoping for a cold winter in the South. If only the courses down here would stay open. If it hits 55 in Sarasota, you might mistake it for Siberia, as everyone dresses in Parkas. True story, the Bobby Jones Golf complex closed due to climate conditions last November. It was 57 degrees.

The Detriot Dykes WON THE WNBA CH........ Who am I kidding? I didn't even know the season started.

I'd rather golf in a hailstorm, then watch a baseball game. Just my opinion.

Chester Taylor should probably be ahead of Brown.

Don't be angry at him, be angry with CitiBank for their s***** commercials.

Because he does his job? Scott Boras doesn't make baseball worse, the rules of MLB make baseball worse.
