   No More Flyovers @ Sporting Events? 1 2

   Due to federal budget issues, the sporting world will soon have to say goodbye to flyovers. Michelle Beadle is alright with the cut because she isn't comfortable using tax dollars to fund this, but Dave Briggs says it's a reminder of our military in front of millions of people. see more... http://sports.yahoo.com/blogs/nbc-yahoo-sports/hype-goodbye-flyovers-224611444.html

   By Brian Waller, AngelsWin.com Columnist -- This is the time of year all baseball fans look forward to. The weather is warming up, spring training games have started and each of us, no matter which team we support, have at least a glimmer of hope that this could be the season our favorite ballclub makes the post season. As fans look forward to the upcoming season, managers and coaches sift through dozens and dozens of players to put together their opening-day 25-man roster. So many different aspects go in to building a contending ballclub; the rotation, offense, bench, bullpen, minor league systems, etc. With so much information to follow from each team it may get a …

    Batting second Part 2

    • 992 views

    I think you can almost count out Callaspo and Iannetta as candidates. I've heard a lot of talk on the radio for HK47 in that spot. Torii drove in a boatload of runners batting second last season. If you have guys like Trout, PB, and Aybar getting on base and Pujols/Hamilton behind him it could be a very nice situation for Howie. He should see plenty of good pitches to hit ... maybe a 80-90 rbi season.

    Jered Weaver and some other Angels starters tend to give up fly balls. But with a fleet outfield and a helpful home ballpark, it might not be such an issue.<br/><br/>TEMPE, Ariz. — It's a reaction Jered Weaver has grown to enjoy, a combination of surprise and frustration on the face of an opposing batter who was sure he'd hit a home run at Angel Stadium, only to see the ball die on the warning track.<img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/latimes/sports/baseball/mlb/angels/~4/uF_Phygj2z4" height="1" width="1"/> View the full article

    Alex Rodriguez’s charity gave only 1 percent of donations to charitable causes

    February 28, 2013 by Wallerrrr

    • 23 replies
    • 2.4k views

    Alex Rodriguez' woes continue. A new Boston Globe review of IRS filings by more than 50 athletes found that the charity established by Rodriguez, as well as those by other notable players, gave far less than the expected percentage of their income to actual charitable causes. Nonprofits are generally expected to donate 65 to 75 percent of their revenues to charitable causes, with the remainder going to pay whatever expenses and, if necessary, salaries of nonprofit employees. But according to the Globe, nearly half of the 50 athletes' foundations reviewed fell below that line. Rodriguez was not the only athlete whose foundation failed to meet acceptable giving rule…

    Here is a recent article: http://www.thestar.com/sports/baseball/2013/02/28/mlb_looking_for_ways_to_protect_pitchers.html I saw an ESPN piece earlier this morning where they had Chris Young and another guy on the show to talk about the experience of getting hit in the face from a line drive. They also did a small bit on McCarthy when Aybar drilled him and he had to have emergency surgery to save his life. Should MLB do anything? Is there anything to do? Are the padded hats doable? Is it just part of the game?
