    We may move our game to the night on Patriots Day if no Americans run Boston this year. Have any American elites been asked to come by Johnny H. or is it BAA Americans Again? How about KK, Browne, Skinny AL, The Rocket Dehaven,White Shadow or even JAM? Does it make more sense to run a Spring marathon this year and take the fall off to get ready for the Trials next Feb.? Oct. and Nov. are close to Feb. I think so if recovery is important and doing a proper build up.

    Sox should win 104 games this year once this Colon deal is done.

    I would think most elites are heading to Birmingham in feb therefore boston would be a bit too soon to hit up another marathon.

    Not sure abt the US women, but I'm thinking it may be a might lean year for male US runners at Boston -- Mercedes/US Champs at Birmingham appear to be a good draw (rightly so, as the guys will be teeing it up there in a year for the USOT) and that will cut down on available guys that would consider it, but as for the above guys:

    KK -- he apprears to be racing rarely, and only against the topmost guys. Boston not likely to get the top Europe-based Africans or any of the Spanish or Portuguese. Flora London rules the roost there. Loks like KK's doing early positioning of his cycle for the 2004 Games...if so, Bravo, Khalid

    Browne -- read yesterday's he's waiting until Lasalle Bank CM.

    Skinny Al -- unknown.

    RDH -- just ran one last month. Ran 2:12 last time there. Not the type to invite a jinx.

    JAM -- you flatter me...I'm not runnign Boston and no one will miss me except the bartenders at Daisy Buchanan's

    THEO,

    What's up with Kevin Millar? Is he coming to Boston, or will he be eating sushi next year?

    I thought Colon was just traded to the White Sox, am I missing something?

    Bosox Rule,

    DougC,

    Yes, Colon was just traded to the WHITE Sox.

    Man I feel for you if you are a Red Sox fan.

    "It's a dribbler down the first-base line. This should do it! Ahhhh through Buckner's legs. The curse of Babe Ruth raises its ugly head again."

    That must have been tough.

    It's true. A three way deal between Montreal, Chicago, and the F#@*&%! Yankees.

    Steinbrenner finds yet another way to screw the Red Sox Nation!
