But some are having issues and this is a good way to see what it's like to post them.

I'm going to attach a picture now...

There should be a way of adding a new category BEFORE you post a blog, but I don't see that.

Comment on this if you will to get used to it.

I used to post D-Back stories on the frontpage, but until that situation is resolved, I will post my thoughts here.

Last night was an amazing night for Brandon Webb. In less than 2 hours, he bested the Pirates at Chase Field. A bullpen that was taxed the night before received a day off, and the D-Backs Ace got just enough run support to earn his MLB-Leading 16th win.

Alot of people wonder if Webb's performance was in response to Dan Haren's new contract. I tend to think that Webby was just doing his thing against an inferior team. Combine the Pirates' free-swinging style and Webb's sinker, and you get alot of ground ball outs. In fact, Webb only had 1 strikeout through 8 innings last night. He then K'd the last two batters to cap his amazing evening.

Webb and the D-Backs will get a deal in place, but for now, the team has his rights for a couple more years. There is no rush to get a deal done, but I suspect Webby will get a new contract after winning his second NL Cy Young Award this season. ]]> crisper57 http://www.arizonasportsfans.com/vb/blog.php?b=64 All Star Game Rant http://www.arizonasportsfans.com/vb/blog.php?b=63 Wed, 16 Jul 2008 20:11:33 GMT What I propose is that you determine who gets home field advantage by best record.

Another thing I would like to see is whoever has the best record in each of the leagues manages the All Star Game. For example this year both Boston and Chicago would host since they have the best record in their league.

One other thing that would be cool is having USA vs the World in the All Star game. Both teams would have 25 players 12 pitchers and 13 hitters. 6 from the NL and 6 from the AL. 7 hitters from the AL and 6 from the NL. I'm not sure how the voting would work out. ]]> azsportsfan31 http://www.arizonasportsfans.com/vb/blog.php?b=63 July 4th Trip to San Diego http://www.arizonasportsfans.com/vb/blog.php?b=62 Tue, 08 Jul 2008 22:08:02 GMT Me and my mom left on Thursday evening for San Diego.

Down 0-3 is horrific and I can't shake that gut feeling of despair and heartache.

But I know it isn't over. I know it takes 4 losses.... ]]> Andrew http://www.arizonasportsfans.com/vb/blog.php?b=60 Suns vs Spurs http://www.arizonasportsfans.com/vb/blog.php?b=59 Thu, 24 Apr 2008 16:27:18 GMT Suns vs Spurs Series

Most of the NBA experts have the Suns winning in 6 games. The mentality is that you want to win in San Antonio.

Game 1-The Suns had some leads late into the game. They couldn't put the Spurs away. When you face a good team like the Spurs you have to put them away and not let them hang around. Shaq and Amare got in foul trouble.

Game 2-The first half for the Suns was impressive. The Suns had trouble scoring in the 3rd quarter. They only scored 11 points.
Parker and Ginobili tore the Suns up.

Game 3-The Spurs led from beginning to end Tony Parker scored 41 points. Suns are down 3-0.

Game 4-The Suns won by 19. Boris and Raja both stepped up. Interesting note When Raja scores over 20 points the Suns are undefeated.

Game 5-It was the turnovers that killed the Suns at the end of the game and some bad officiating calls.

Overall the Suns expectations is to win a NBA Championship and they failed. We look to the offseason. Will Mike get fired and what else might happen. ]]> azsportsfan31 http://www.arizonasportsfans.com/vb/blog.php?b=59 NBA Picks http://www.arizonasportsfans.com/vb/blog.php?b=58 Thu, 24 Apr 2008 16:19:49 GMT Lakers in 6.

Some might think it is unimportant, but to me it is heart shattering. I killed a raccoon tonight. I ran the little thing over, and I will never forget it. I was coming home from school and the car in front of me suddenly swerved, not knowing why I soon had a raccoon in my headlights. I had no time to try and miss him, so I tried my hardest to try and drive over it, much to my dismay I hit the little thing. I got out of my car and saw it on the side of the road, shaking and crying, and then it just stopped. It just died. I called my mother to call animal control and she ended up calling the cops and they will assess the situation. I wanted to pick it up and try and save it, but my mom informed me to not because of diseases and rabies.[/SIZE][/FONT]

[FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=3]I came home crying because I am a huge animal lover, but more importantly….I took a life. I murdered a living thing and it hurts inside.

The concert is one state over, the credit card works and everything. I am a part of this band's message board, was told today that someone purchased the same ticket as I had. Went to the site to find out my order was cancelled, I didn't do it. So the only logical explanation is the credit card didn't go through. The company has my contact info and failed to notify me and re-released it and someone who had 3rd row already bought it. Then bragged to me they got it and basically told me tough luck. I sent an email to the company because they aren't open now, but really....

I have the worse luck and I want to punch a hole in the wall... ]]> Andrew http://www.arizonasportsfans.com/vb/blog.php?b=56 Rant http://www.arizonasportsfans.com/vb/blog.php?b=55 Wed, 16 Apr 2008 02:41:51 GMT I'm going to rant on 2 things.

1. Sports 620 Ktar-I would like to see them go back to the original when they had KMVP and KTAR 620 for sports.

2. Dbacks on TV I would like to see the Dbacks have a separate TV station for their road games like the Suns do.

Next week the NBA playoffs start and I will be doing my predictions. ]]> azsportsfan31 http://www.arizonasportsfans.com/vb/blog.php?b=55 You know what really irks me? http://www.arizonasportsfans.com/vb/blog.php?b=54 Fri, 11 Apr 2008 07:09:22 GMT [FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=3]I got in a back fender bender accident a few years back and they shelled out the money to pay for it and yet my mom spent it on whatever instead of getting my car fixed.

[FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=3]She tells me now it was my point to call around for a back bender in garages and stuff when she made it perfectly clear at the time of the incident she would help me. She never did. It happened when I was either 18 or 19.[/SIZE][/FONT]

[FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=3]You know why I bring this up? Because she got in a fender bender and it is far less worse than mine and she is getting it fixed pronto.
