Wilderness Walk for 3-23-2011

So much for that angry, pride filled response to getting blown out, eh? While we continue to wait for the plus sized female to begin carrying a tune, we are forced to acknowledge the fact that the season is over. As Jim Mora said, "I just hope [they] can win a game." 

The hope is gone, the season is gone, and now the pride is flat out gone. Not much to work with when professionals give up on them selves. Yet, here we are. Eight games left to play, and regardless of what these guys are thinking, there is still plenty to play for. Contracts, that ever elusive pride, contracts... or hey... how about the fact that people paid a couple hundred bucks to come and watch?

Whatever it is, they need to find something.

The Facebook Question of the Day is here to distract you once again. We have also added some new info to the Daily Scoreboard watch, so watch for that around 10. We may also get to one of the other talking points later in the day.
