They play in the all-star game next Wednesday at St Vincent College in Latrobe, PA. Good luck guys and make Behrend proud. LOST OUT: Once again, St. Petersburg has been rejected. For the seventh time, the city of St. Petersburg, Florida was denied a major league baseball team. In a 9-4 vote by National League owners, the Giants were forced to stay in San Francisco. This vote was representative of the unwillingness of owners to let teams move. The last team to relocate was the Washington Senators who moved to Arlington; lexis ana bfefedtafc the Texas Rangers.' BIG BOUT: Heavy-weight boxing champion Evander Holyfield, takes on challenger Riddock Bowe in a 12 round match at the Mirage in Las Vegas, Nevada. Holyfield is 28-0 and Bowe is 31-0. Watch for Holyfield to win a decision and put a blemish on Bowe’s perfect record. EARLY BIRD: I know it is really early, but as of Monday the leading scorer and rebounder in the NBA is Phoenix’s Charles Barkley. Go Chuck! BEST BET: Last week I did not do that well with my picks, but I feel very confident of this one. Miami will beat Buffalo on Monday night. It will not be a blowout like the game earlier this season in Buffalo, but mark my words: Miami will win! BAD DAY: New York Giants linebacker, Lawrence Taylor ruptured his right achilles tendon Sunday in the Giant’s victory over the Green Bay Packers. Taylor, a 12 year veteran, is the NFL’s career sack leader and has been in 10 straight pro bowls. He had wanted to retire after this season, but this injury will take five months to rehabilitate. After years of rooting against the Giants, I am sorry to see such a great career end this way. Happy Birthday-D!

It seems that a member of the unnamed team of Berlin, Lytle and Ray Huggins had the 2-3-5 pins left for his second shot in the tenth. He decided to just screw around and throw a heavy spin. He guttered the ball, and his team lost by one pin to the Gangsters of volleyball, basketball and softball teams at Behrend.
