Another Rush to judgment?

Even though the Jaguars aren't winning many games this season, the future still looks great with Byron Leftwich. He's big, strong and smart and has good intangibles. Of course, this only is what Fly is hearing. It may be undeserved hype, considering the media has been very desirous for a MAC quarterback to succeed in the NFL

Talk about a bad exchange rate

First, Hideo Nomo, Ichiro, Kaz Sasaki and Hideki Matsui all left Japanese baseball to come to and star in the U.S. And now, MLB suitors are lining up to pluck away Kazuo Matsui, a swift shortstop with a sweet stick, and Akinori Otsuka, a crafty closer with killer control. Fly's just thinking aloud here, but for all that, shouldn't we be sending them more than Bobby Valentine?
