Rod's Thursday & Friday Ramblings 9/24/09

Things that I have wondered about lately. Why did Jim Hendry wait so long to get rid of Milton Bradley. He really didn't get rid of him, he just suspended him, for the rest of the season. For whatever reason, Bradley has had trouble where ever he has been. But he is also a good ball player. This year, was not a good year for him, but putting that Cub uniform has done that to better players than Milton in past years for whatever reason. One does not know what goes on in the clubhouse or locker room and that is the way it should be at all levels of sports and all ages. Coaches would not have as many parental headaches as many have had if the kid would have just followed that unwritten rule. What goes on in the (dugout, lockeroom, clubhouse, whatever) stays in the whatever. That is all a coach, who usually is hired to do the job, needs. Have some dimwit parent think they can do a better job because they played little league baseball, or watch sports on TV and are a fan!!!!! Now there is a resume for you.

I have also thought about my Cornhuskers and how they lost last week. While it hurt to watch that winning touchdown pass play unfold, lets give the blackshirts some credit. The fact that play went the way it did was because they played good defense, but sometimes players make plays. VT's QB did. I also think, listening to Brett Favre, he isn't 100 percent sure if he did the right thing. And I wonder how he has been accepted in that Viking locker room?

And how Michael Tveidt is handling his buddy Freddie Coleman's season ending ACL. That is a major blow for Michael and his NDSU basketball mate's hopes for the coming year.
