What do you think?

The third band member ran into technical difficulties he simply could not bare. While the dilemma was certainly significant, his frustration tolerance is notoriously low; and tonight, although far from a disaster, was no psychological breakthrough. Ironically, the night’s bright spot shined on the often skittish greenhorn who kept his cool through numerous audibles and stepped up in the clutch during some of the before-mentioned bloopers. His unique skill was on display and his value was never felt more than the one time he missed par. As the crowd slowed to a screeching halt, the greenhorn found his cue and delivered a mediocre performance saving the show.

I did not come close to playing a perfect game.

My preparation was the most lacking factor. The lights need improving We need more time for soundcheck. I forgot about the cell phone; we all did.

I missed some notes but I contend that the brain-fart was caused by the persistent surveillance I had no choice but to undertake.

We must drastically improve. The “Commoners” schedule does not work for us. We must be well rehearsed for every single show and do more homework.

Watch Robert California inspire “The Office”

Everyone must be required to yell and know harmonies.

The worst part is the fact that the Wildcats didn’t really need to best shot-blocker since David Robinson to keep the Hogs’ shooting percentage low… but it sure didn’t hurt. Anthony Davis is ridiculous, but the Razorbacks’ resolve is not far off under Coach Mike Anderson. The 2011-2012 Razorback Basketball Team is not loaded with talent, missing a true big-man and still young in the back-court, but when that whistle blows, they come to play. They’re not scared, and they don’t quit. This spells trouble for the rest of the SEC as Hogs Basketball, under its new leadership, is on the up-and-up, and nobody doubts it. Their fierce style of play is going to burn a trail through the SouthEastern Conference in the coming years and I for one, can’t wait to watch it! So to the rest of the SEC and NCAA for that matter, get ready for 40 Minutes!

For a realistic chance at a spot in the NFC Championship Game, the New York Football Giants must get 6 when they’re in the red zone and win the turnover battle says NYG Insider, Jeremy Franks. Franks goes on to say that if the Giants defense can force Packers QB and soon-to-be NFL MVP Aaron Rodgers throw within 3 seconds of the snap, it will neutralize the Packers’ deep targets and we will have a repeat of the last time the NYG visited Lambeau Field for a playoff game. It is up to the front line of the Giants to win this football game by getting past Green Bay’s wounded offensive line. Do you think there is a more pivotal aspect of this game? The Poggs will post their pick Friday afternoon. Go Poggs!
