the AFL-NFL merger. Namath was named MVP of Super Bowl III. This win would
make him the first quarterback to ever start and win a national championship
game in college, and to start and win a major professional league
championship and a Super Bowl. The Colts were touted as "the greatest

年少轻狂的时候,还梦想将来发财了,把球队买下来,不惜代价打造冠军球队,就像
mavericks的Cuban (congrats to Mavs and Cuban)。
总决赛前两场我在中国,没有电视转播,还是在网上听。第三场从飞机场赶回看了,第
四场去现场,虽然输了,Bobby Orr举旗那段还是不错。
明天的票也买了。还好不算太贵(500),比第三场(750)还便宜不少,是不是btown
球迷放弃了?
radio show host好像股民,每个人都对明天比赛充满信心,就因为Canucks played
bad for 2 games? i think both Sedins and Kessler are due. we may have a
break-out on power plays as well. Even the vaunted Thomas may be exposed for
one game.
天佑Canucks! |

is 10 weeks old and we at Scouts Inc. have had plenty of time to watch film
and shuffle our board, so why not take a stab at a first-round projection?
Stanford QB Andrew Luck has established himself as the top prospect on the
board and looks like a slam-dunk for the quarterback-starved Buffalo Bills,
but after Luck, defensive prospects dominate the top of the board with four
defensive linemen and two cornerbacks filling ... 阅读全帖 |

LOS ANGELES (AP) -- Running back Anthony Brown has quit Southern California'

apparent accusations of racism against him on social media.
''Sark treated me like a slave in his Office,'' was posted in the caption to

Guy Sajer's book THE FORGOTTEN SOLDIER is rather notorious in the historical
community; the book purports to be the memoirs of an Alsatian who served
with the Division for the last years of the Second World War. Much has been
written on the subject of whether or not the book is a true story or not.
Two articles are presented here, plus an exchange of letters to the editor

那是普普通通的一天,早上八点整,朝阳像往日一样在东方升起,穿过北京雾蒙蒙

倒映在湖水中,在清晨的湖光中倒映着。
韩方穿着T恤短裤,在湖边跑步,这是他从实时代保留下来的习惯,每天早上都要
绕湖跑上三圈,虚纪元以来,一切都变了,只有这个习惯依然故我,或许只有这样
,他才能觉得自己还是自己,是一个活着的人。当然,韩方想,这种感觉或许也只
是幻觉,或许自己只是一个没有实体的幽灵。但双腿跑动时的沉重,双臂摆动的节

重的呼吸都在提醒他,他还活着。
韩方跑完了三圈,停下脚步,在湖边长椅上坐下,拿出带的一瓶水喝了几口,望着
澄碧湖面上的倒影。一片落叶飘到湖面上,水面泛起了一圈圈的波纹,倒影奇妙地
波动着,如同要摆脱这个无趣的世界,变成另一个奇异时空的入口……
不一会儿,韩方听到微微的脚步声,扭头望去,就看到迎着阳光的方向,一个红衣
服的女人朝着他大步跑来。韩方略感诧异:这么早会来湖边的没几个人。他每天清
