Hey guys.

This new blog option gave me an idea on how we can use it to help out the efficiency of the LOCK Thread.  I know many or most of you have me in your Favorites.  Well, whenever I post a blog submission, I believe it shows up on your Profile page under the 'Favorite Blogs" sections.

So, I figure I will put up Standings, CONSENSUS plays, and any other important info on the LOCK Thread as well as making it a blog post.  This way, you can always check from your own Profile page to see if there is any important LOCK Thread information that you might miss in the 20+ pages of posts.  This will also making it OK to post chit-chat or whatever on the LOCK Thread because the really important stuff can be found in my blog posts, and then on your Profile page.

Does this make sense to everybody?  I can use the blog system as a "Bat Signal" to all the LOCK guys, and you can then find the important info from your own Profile page.

When you guys get this and read it, can you reply by posting a "Comment" at the bottom of this blog submission?  I'd like to see how many people this post "hits" and how quickly you guys see it.

Thanks and good luck to all,

Holmey

I am no "self-help" type.  Its pretty obvious if you know me.  But Coach Calipari made me a believer on Jim Rome's radio program today (01.15).  Not to say that I am going to go buy any self-help or motivational literature, but I could listen to Coach Cal talk about his theories on getting ahead and "Bouncing Back" (the title of his upcoming book) for another half hour.

His story about when he got fired from the Nets and how Larry Brown picked him up and basically saved his career swayed me from a Larry Brown hater, to a full-fledged member of the Larry Brown Fan Club.  When he told about how Brown purposely got himself kicked out of the game so Cal could coach the team against his former employer, the Nets, I was bowled over.  What a good man larry Brown is.  I know most don't beleive that, but that story tell otherwise.

I have never been a Larry Brown or John Calipari fan at all.  That changed today.  It certainly makes it obvious how Coach Cal manages to recruit kids to Memphis.  Never have to wonder about that ever again.

If you can find the interview from today, be sure to listen to it.  It might be on Jim Rome's website.  You won't be disappointed.
