Jimmy Rollins' Mom A Lot Like Mine
Jimmy Rollins picked up his National League MVP award last night at the New York baseball writers' dinner, and naturally he gave an acceptance speech.
Guess what he thanked his mom for?
"I'd like to thank my parents -- my dad for taking the line drives off the elbow and my mom for teaching me how to talk trash," he said.
Aw, Mrs. Rollins totally helped out her son the same way my mom helped out me. Unfortunately for me, I happened to be good at cross country, a sport where you have to talk trash while breathing heavily. It's just not the same.

Temple Improves To Worse Than Last
The [Temple] men's cross country team placed 11th at the Atlantic Ten Conference Championships Saturday at Belmont Plateau, recording a program best.
Good job, Owls! Way to place 11th in the Atlantic 10.
Incidentally, the women's team finished 13th. There are apparently like 70 teams in the A-10.
