Lost Time Is Not Found Again is what the MPS blog crew has been reading today.
+ Corky Simpson wishes he had voted for Ricky Henderson to make the HOF now. Must have been all those bloggers whining about it. {Home Run Derby.}

+ Someone else won’t be sad to see Larry Hughes go. {Blog-a-Bull.}
+ It’s OK to love Tyler Hansbrough again. {The Dagger.}

Quotable:
“Sure, Tebow is a fantastic player and played well in the second half of the game, but he’d be God’s son the way Brennaman told it. I really hope Tebow goes to the NFL just so I don’t have to deal with another year of this crap. I don’t believe I’d be able to handle “Tebow’s chase for a third national championship” or second Heisman. And you know what, as much as they make it seem like it was all Tebow in the game, to me it was more about the Florida defense coming up big and the opportunities Oklahoma squandered.
The Sooners became the first team to intercept Tebow twice in the same game in his career. How many points did they turn that into? None. They got stuffed on 3rd and 4th and 1 from the 1 by the Florida defense when they could have turned things around. Oklahoma had a chance to go up before halftime but Sam Bradford threw a pick to end the scoring threat. And at the end of the game when Oklahoma was only down three and had a drive, Bradford was picked off again. Like I said, it was more about Florida’s defense stepping up and Oklahoma’s inability to capitalize than Tebow’s heroics.” – Larry Brown
