Unless his compass is pointing northeast, he's inviting some unkind speculation with that shot. He can't use George Costanza's cold pool defense either.

He's doing a "tuck."

He looks like a G.I. Joe doll!

Good one rcade. My first thought was he must be an exception.

So we can use this pic with one of Greg Oden's pics to represent the ends of the spectrum?

I was trying to think of an anagram for "spectrum" that didn't include "rectum".
Here's what one online anagram generator did with "spectrum":
CREPT SUM
SECT RUMP
CRUMP SET
SCUM PERT
CUSP TERM
CUT SPERM

LOL, nice link (I do recommend clicking on the photo, nice side bars, might want to not do so on the office computer)

OK then. Maybe Denard Robinson is not a runaway Heisman winner after all. That Taylor Martinez of Nebraska is looking might fine. Maybe his performance is the reason that Amare's compass is pointing northeast.

Wow, Tim Lincecum is just dealing right now. Amazing. Maybe his performance is the reason that Amare's compass is pointing northeast.

Not to take away from Lincecum's performance since he dominated the Braves, but it is a different game if Buster Posey gets throw out (the correct call) at second base on his steal attempt.
