      I don't think this is a real question to me...crazy spammer people is my guess. BUT. The answer is yes, very. If I concentrate _really_ hard, I can control myself and not kick/wiggle/squirm...but that it's certainly a difficult feet (get it? ha) for me to stay still!

      I'm doing well, thanks Miss Em! Just trying to get ready for a quick trip to Iowa :)

      2011? I really really really don't want to say Tim Tebow. But I think I'll say Tim Tebow (if anyone would like to talk me off a ledge before football starts, I'd appreciate it)...

      Worst: I'll go with one of my most recent, a high school football player (who shall go unnamed at this time). Was like pulling teeth and I didn't get nearly the information I was hoping for, though I'm still hoping for a great piece. We'll see!
      Best: Hard to pick one...Kerry Meier was really great, Jene Morris was good, Bill Fennelly was also really good...

      I don't think it is. I know a Seattlite that is cheering for the Thunder. I understand the ire/distate that the people of Seattle have for OKC, but I think their hatred is somewhat misdirected. Keep in mind who it is that 'stole' the team (as many from Seattle say) and direct your dislike towards Clay Bennett or the ownership group.

      Kevin Durant and company should not pay the price for the move. This is a great team, a great story, a great group of young men with an amazing fan base that no one thought would exist. I think this is a team that should be celebrated by everyone, Seattlites included.

      Wow. That is T.U.F.F. I think I'd stick with what I like writing most now...local/regional and unknown stories/people/events that I think deserve more attention. What exactly that one story might be, I don't know that I could say right now. Something timely and interesting, yet something that would last a while. (great non-answer, right? lol)

      I am very bad with actors' names (like REALLY bad...). I don't know who would fit me - someone young, kinda quirky, short, cute - not overly pretty - just like a normal looking cute gal. Soooo...I guess that's the long answer to I HAVE NO EARTHLY IDEA. I'll be taking suggestions to shop to movie houses when they decide to make my life story :)

      My first thought is Boston vs. Philadelphia, with the Sox winning. Yes, this might be a little homer-ish, but I really do think Boston has a solid team with some good off-season moves that should help them out. Of course, I am personally not a fan of any predictions before a season even starts, but this is my first instinct...
      We'll see soon - batter up!!

      I'm really bad at having favorite anythings (besides colors - orange, duh). I have so many memories in my little brain - from watching the Red Sox World Series sweep at my boss's house & us dancing around with brooms, to tearing goalposts down at Oklahoma State to cheering on the Cowboys in GIA in some of the craziest basketball games I've ever attended. There are so many others too-driving down to Southeastern or up to Missouri Southern & watching my uncle coach, spending days at the ballpark while my dad played softball, touring the Baseball Hall of Fame...the list could go on forever.

      Never really entertained the idea of a book - I'm guessing it would either be something sporty in nature or a murder/mystery read. I imagine it would be fiction, only because I'm not sure what non-fiction story I could write. If you have book ideas, let me know! :)

      I lived in Boston for a while and I thought that was a pretty ideal locale. You get MLB, MiLB, NFL, NBA, NHL, MLS, college options and also less 'mainstream' (if you want to call it that) events and activities such as the WNBA (at Mohegan), skiing, rowing, sailing and the Boston Marathon. If only it weren't so darned cold up there in the winters!

      I know there are many other places that offer a similar slate of fun, but that's the only one that I've experienced first hand. I think I'd also put Chicago on my list right now...

      Also Rooting for? Would probably have to say Andrea Riley. But I think Kelsey Griffin will make it, and that would be cool. A little bird told me to watch out for some of the Texas A&M gals too. I'm a lover of all things Big 12, so any ladies that make it will be A-Ok in my book!

      There's a lot that goes into it - and I'm really no expert. You can ask me about sports and I'll be able to answer more coherently. But it's broad and sweeping healthcare reform that will slowly be implemented across the country and have provisions for everyone to have the ability to receive healthcare. For the real deal about it, I suggest you check out this website: http://www.healthreform.gov/index.html

      Not for me. I think it's great to have farm clubs/D League. Sure, somtimes your favorites get called up or traded, but that gives you more opportunity to be invested in the parent club and the player's future as a whole.

      I have memories of going to 89ers games and cheering for Robin Ventura and other guys who went on to play and thrive in the bigs. And that makes me happy to know that I had the opportunity to watch their development.

      Of course, I also think I might be a different breed than some. I'm very loyal to my local teams, no matter the sport or the level of competition and always have been (even when I lived in New England).

    16. Jessica Lantz

      Honestly, I'm not the girl to ask what exactly health care reform 'means'. Just like most reforms, bills, measures of Congress etc. it means changes, growth and progression (as some see it), the demise of America (as others see it). That hashtag is being used by both sides of the coin to express their happiness or ire about the recent vote and its implications. I see both sides, live in the middle of the road and have faith that things will work as they should.

    17. Jessica Lantz

      Would it be crazy to say I don't have just one favorite? I am really enjoying every minute of every event I am lucky enough to cover and attend. I know it sounds cheesy, but it really is true. I love sports and competition, whether it be men or women, high school or pro, individual or team.

    18. Jessica Lantz

      I honestly don't know. My first thought is yes. Partly because of their total domination at their level, but also in part to their teamwork. An All-Star team might be just as (or more) talented, but I just don't think they'd have the chemistry, drive, knowledge of one another and overall team spirit and cohesiveness as the UConn women.

    19. Jessica Lantz

      My original was Kentucky and Kansas (oh my word - silly Jayhawks). If I were to revise with my brain, I am pretty sure I'd pick Syracuse and Kentucky. My heart and my rooting power will be behind a Kansas State and Baylor final. With all the upsets in the early rounds, I really have no idea what is going to happen and since my brackets are all wackified, I'm just going to sit back and enjoy everything I see happen.
