By Ryan Corazza

Lost Time Is Not Found Again is what the MPS blog crew has been reading today.

+ A nice little profile on Texas Tech quarterback Graham Harrell. {New York Times.}

+ An interview with Kyle Bunch. {Hugging Harold Reynolds.}

+ Jeremy Shockey and Drew Brees getting a little testy.  {Can’t Stop the Bleeding.}

+ Matt Hinton’s BCS breakdown. {Dr. Saturday.}

+ Non-sports: Al Gore gets his tweet on. {Twitter.}  Lupe Fiasco announces three-disc “final” album. {Pitckfork.}

Quotable:

“Asked for baseball comparisons, he said McCain’s campaign reminded him a lot of this year’s Houston Astros. ‘Start out slow, get ridiculously hot in August, and then completely blow it at the end. Obama, conversely, might be the White Sox, who consistently overachieve expectations but never make it look easy.’

More importantly, what would Sarah Palin’s VORP be?

‘Sarah Palin, I think, would have to have a VORP of -10 or so. Somewhere in the Neifi Perez range; she tangibly hurt that ticket. A replacement level, do-no-harm VP candidate would have been more someone like a Tim Pawlenty or an Evan Bayh.’” – Jim Caple quoting Nate Silver in his piece on the numbers wonder child, ESPN
