FANTASY SPORTS: HOOTS & HOLLERS

The Utah Jazz should have a much more exciting look this season with Al Jefferson at center, Paul Milsap bumped to starting forward and Mehmet Okur as the sixth man. Jefferson must be counting his blessings, having gotten away from Minnesota, David Kahn and the triangle offense… The Matt Capps trade to Minnesota just cost me a good closer in Jon Rauch…  I am reading Yao Ming is on track to be available for the first day of NBA Training Camp. Houston also has a hospital bed reserved for day two… Ted Lilly could become a Dodger again before the deadline. He certainly is not the best Los Angeles could have done at the trade deadline, but the L. A. ballpark should improve Lilly’s numbers a bit and give the Dodgers another powerful, if not inconsistent arm… I like the theory of Josh Johnson possibly going to the Texas Rangers. The new ownership in Texas is made up of a group of players. Johnson would be fantasy gold with that potent offense behind him… We’ll be doin’ the GeekSpeak Fantasy Sports Show on Saturday, analyzing all the big trades as they happen. Tim Heaney of KFFL.com will be joining us, so be sure to check it out here! Football analyst Sammy Crano will be joing us for football. it should be a good hour so join us…
