The SEC will use instant replays to guide tough calls in league games this fall on "an experimental basis" after the NCAA recommended that all conferences give it a try following its success in the Big Ten (11) last year. Conferences have until June 1 to confirm whether they will implement and use instant replay this fall.

ESPN also updated their insanely early preseason Top 25 back in February, guessing how the rankings might look according to players lost and other changes made since January. I figured I'd say something about it now, since it's roughly the midway point between last season and next season.

As of April 1, 2005, my primary blog is ★my livejournal★. I still update this one occasionally, and I've left the archive and all non-blog pages untouched. I am converting this web site ... to ... something else. (I haven't quite decided what, yet, so don't ask.)

I also write about the Atlanta Braves at Tomahawk and about Georgia government and politics at Polstate, and I am leaving the other sections of this site alone, and even continuing to update the photos section when appropriate. All of these pages can be found in the links menu to the right.

My Livejournal is my new primary web home, and it has been for quite some time now. Some of what I post there will be unavailable to anyone not on my Livejournal "friends" list. To get on that list, just sign up for a (free) Livejournal account and let me know your user name (or add "ninjamonkeyspy" to your friends list).
