HAPPY ANNIVERSARY Sunday was the 63rd anniversary of Jackie Robinson's only league MVP award, Edward Creech noted at MLBTradeRumors.com.

IF REPORTS ARE TRUE THAT MARYLAND AND RUTGERS ARE IN SERIOUS TALKS WITH THE BIG TEN ABOUT JOINING THE CONFERENCE, WELL, THAT WOULD BE ODD AT BEST AND A SHAME AT WORST.

MARYLAND AND RUTGERS MOST CERTAINLY DO NOT.
