    Albumen says "Yes we should be bailing out banks instead. At least India are doing something useful with our money." Difference being, all the bank bailout money 1) saved the economy and financial infrastructure of the country, and 2) is being paid back in huge chunks, with interest......see...

    Who should start upfront Saturday, Lita or Barnes?

    With Buckley out there is no choice sadly, Lita will have to start and Barnes will float around in yet another position that his supporters will claim is not his forte as justification when he blanks again. I will be very happy if he pops a few in of course, just can't see it.

    Yet another game without a goal for Barnes...
