In last night’s 92-83 loss to Los Angeles, the five-year forward had eight points, two rebounds and a block, also going 2-7 from three-point range. Friday the Spurs go on the road against Cleveland, which didn’t fare well for Bonner the last outing, scoring nine points and going 1-3 from the three-point line in a 97-95 loss. *Corey Brewer, Shooting Guard/Small Forward, Minnesota Timberwolves* Corey Brewer has had a breakout season for the Timberwolves, averaging 13 points per game, as well as 3.6 rebounds and 2.3 assists. Coming off a season-ending ACL injury last year, Brewer is in the running for the league’s Most Improved Player award. However, Minnesota has had a terrible March, losing every game this month, including a 108-95 loss to Charlotte last night. In the last 20 games, Minnesota has won one game. Next up for the Timberwolves is a contest against the Orlando Magic Friday at Amway Arena. Last time Brewer faced the Magic, he had 10 points, three rebounds and two blocks in a 106-94 loss. *Udonis Haslem, Power Forward, Miami Heat* A sprained ankle has sidelined Udonis Haslem, as the power forward missed Monday’s game against New Jersey. Coming into tonight’s game against Chicago, Haslem will return, after being diagnosed as questionable earlier in the week. The Heat will use the six-year pro’s rebound ability, as Haslem has had 13, 7, 12 and 12 rebounds in the last four games. He also scored in double figures in two of those games; 13 points in a Mar. 14 win over Philadelphia and 10 points in a Mar. 16 loss to San Antonio. In the last game against the Bulls Mar. 12, Haslem had seven points, 10 rebounds and two assists in a 108-95 victory. *Al Horford, Power Forward/Center, Atlanta Hawks* Horford has continued to contribute to the Hawks, averaging 14.2 ppg and 9.70 rpg. Last night, the Hawks earned a playoff berth and are tied for third place in the Eastern Conference with an 86-84 win against Orlando. Horford had 12 points and 11 rebounds in the victory. The Hawks have fared well over the past week, defeating playoff teams, Orlando, San Antonio and Charlotte. Monday the first-time all-star told TSNhttp://www.tsn.ca/nba/story/?id=315023, “Playing Charlotte and San Antonio back-to-back, it gives us a great feel on what the playoffs are going to be like.” Atlanta plays Philadelphia Friday. In a Mar. 3 contest against the Sixers, Horford had 12 points and eight rebounds in a 112-93 victory. *David Lee, Center, Power Forward/Center, New York Knicks* Though David Lee missed some time last week with tendinitis in his right knee, the Knicks power forward has bounced back with great outings the last two games against Houston and Denver. Against the Rockets, Lee scored 27 points, had 20 rebounds and six assists in a 116-112 loss. Facing the Nuggets, the four-year pro had 12 points and 16 rebounds, and also went 4-4 from the free throw line. Friday the Knicks go on the road against the Suns. In a Dec. 1 contest against the Suns, Lee had 24 points and eight rebounds as the Knicks defeated Phoenix 126-99. *Mike Miller, Shooting Guard/Small Forward, Washington Wizards* Mike Miller has battled tailbone and ankle problems recently, but had 12 rebounds and five points in a 99-82 loss to Indiana Wed. This season has been a forgettable one for Miller, who has suffered injuries and is averaging 9.8 ppg and six rebounds. Like the Timberwolves, the Wizards have also gone winless this month. Washington faces Charlotte on the road Friday. In a Mar. 23 game against the Bobcats, Miller had 15 points in a 95-88 loss. *Joakim Noah, Power Forward/Center, Chicago Bulls* Noah, who has missed three weeks this year with plantar fasciitis of the left foot, will be back in the Bulls’ lineup tonight against Miami, although coach Vinny Del Negro told the Chicago Sun-Times they’ll only play him 15-20 minutes depending, on the game. Noah has worked his way back into playing again, playing two games this month, scoring and rebounding in the single digits, far from his average of 10.5 ppg and 11.10 rpg. However, the Bulls are on a four-game winning streak, and Noah’s minutes have increased as Chicago is working him back into the rotations. Noah’s last game against Miami saw the Bulls lose 95-87, while the two-year power forward had 10 points and seven rebounds. *Chris Richard, Power Forward, Chicago Bulls* Chris Richard, who signed

One player who won't be in their future plans is two- time Gatorade National Player of the Year Brandon Knight. According to Scout.com, the Gators are no longer pursuing Knight, a 6-foot-3 five-star point guard from outside Fort Lauderdale. This is a big concern to me, if the assumption is that Knight has crossed UF off of his list in favor of UK or a similar out of state school. We have been recruiting Wright for years, and he is from Florida. The last time there was a recruit of this caliber from the state it was Vince Carter, who spurned UF for Carolina. That was the beginning of the end for Kruger who learned that, no matter how well he could coach, he would lose the once-in-a-decade elite players to an out-of- state school. I fear that our inability to capitalize upon our NCAA Championships has placed us back in this position, that Kentucky is ascendent, and that we are headed back to the way things were. -Zeb -- GATORS: ONE VOICE ON SATURDAY - NO VOICE ON SUNDAY! 1996 National Football Champions | 2006 National Basketball Champions 2006 National Football Champions | 2007 National Basketball Champions 2008 National Football Champions | Three Heisman Trophy winners: Steve Spurrier (1966), Danny Wuerffel (1996), Tim Tebow (2007) - Visit our website at www.gatornet.us To unsubscribe from this group, send email to gatortalk+unsubscribegooglegroups.com or reply to this email with the words REMOVE ME as the subject.

Re: [gatortalk] Re: [gatornews] Meyer, media and the truth all tangled up at UF
I don't think we should change coaches, but I think Urban Meyer needs some coaching in dealing with the media. It actually would help his stress level if he could learn to handle himself in a more professional and productive way. I like the analogy of coaches working officials. There are ways that get positive results and ways that don't. You don't have to be a Bowden, you just have to be professional. For Urban to throw a temper tantrum and draw a line in the sand over something as minor as this is ridiculous. Just my two cents.

I have no idea if this is true or not, but one poster on one of the message boards I frequent insisted that Meyer has had quiet, off to the side talks with this particular reporter on several occasions, apparently to no avail. While I agree that from an overall perspective this *still* could have been handled in a more professional and mature manner, being called out in public may have been what this one punk writer had coming. --- On Fri, 3/26/10, Helen Huntley hhsga...@gmail.com wrote: I don't think we should change coaches, but I think Urban Meyer needs some coaching in dealing with the media.

Yes, but since it's his job to sell papers/web hits/promote himself, he chose not to do so, but rather to highlight and headline the controversial comment. Does Meyer have the right to limit access to those entities that he feels go out of their way to portray his program in a negative light? Sure. Does he run the risk of alienating a large contingent of the media by exercising that right? Looks like it. Did Meyer do what he did to send a message to Deonte Thompson, the rest of his team, and possibly potential future recruits and their families, that he has their back if any media types may try to take advantage of them when they don't carefully articulate their thoughts? Could be. There was a coach that used to ply his trade up the road a bit from Gainesville that was a master at placating the press, and that relationship earned him and his program a free pass for far too long according to a lot of his critics. But for many years he couldn't even tell you the name of his players, even some of the stars without prompting. Urban Meyer could choose to go that route - he could tell Deonte Thompson that he's a big boy now and that he'd better learn to choose his words more carefully. Sure, we'd all like to have that coach that the press loves, his team loves, his family loves, and who wins in the big,brutal world of today's college football. Problem is, we're stuck with humans, and most humans that are strong in some areas are also not as strong (maybe even weak) in others. Given that fact, which of the two coaches described above would you like to have in charge of your favorite team's program? Personally, I like the guy that UF has in charge.

RE: [gatortalk] Re: [gatornews] Meyer, media and the truth all tangled up at UF
The really bad thing is this is exactly what Fowler wanted, attention. It was the same with Larry Guest. He wanted attention for the Sentinel. It was interesting the whole press community jumped on the side of one of their own. Meyer couldn't get a break from anyone. I'm with Meyer 100%. Fowler took a comment out of context and blew it up. That was a truly cheap shot. You're right, the coach is walking a minefield, he's sure to step on one sometime during his career. I'm glad he did it taking up for his player. As someone else has said, this should help recruiting in the long run.

Billy D. seems reluctant to recruit the guys that are sure to be one and done
players. Coach Cal at UK thrives on it - Hey Brandon, do you want to be the
next John Walls?
For a player looking to have high visibility and to play one year before
bolting to be an NBA star Kentucky looks like a much better choice than
Florida. Play in front of a sold out arena, don't take a back seat to football,
and (possibly) not have as much demanded from them in terms of academics, etc.
That said, I still think we get Rivers. But that will be next year's angst...

Because many times there is more than one truth. There are two truths with Florida Gators sports these days. First, Gators teams are often entertaining and enjoyable. The Swamp is a special experience. Many players are engaging off the field and exciting on it. Tim Tebow was the best, most special college athlete I’ve been around as a professional. The men’s basketball teams that won back-to-back titles played the game so unselfishly that comparisons to the Knicks championship teams of the early ’70s were appropriate. The athletic department, from top-to-bottom, may be the best in all of college sports. Athletic director Jeremy Foley and his staff have done an incredible job. They deserve the highest praise. Yet at the same time, dealing with the Florida athletic department is having to work around and through the most difficult people in all of sports. Covering the Gators, unless you deliver pure propaganda, is one of the least desirable things you can do in this business. So when Gators wide receiver Deonte Thompson, in explaining the difference between quarterbacks Tebow and John Brantley, described Brantley as “a real quarterback,” the world of both truths collided. Thompson meant no disrespect to Tebow. The reporter (the Orlando Sentinel’s Jeremy Fowler) did nothing wrong. He asked a question, wrote down the answer and used it in an article on the paper’s Web site. What football coach Urban Meyer wanted Fowler to do was realize the firestorm that would be created in Gator Nation when that quote made the Internet. Meyer then wanted the reporter to cut the sophomore wide receiver some slack. Essentially disregard the quote or have the reporter say to Thompson, “Do you really want me to print that you just said that Tebow is not a real quarterback?” Thompson used “a real quarterback” when he probably meant to say “traditional quarterback” or “dropback passer.” Could the reporter have bailed out Thompson? Sure. Does he have to? No way. It’s not the reporter’s job to protect Florida athletes from themselves. So Meyer snaps. He verbally confronts the reporter, threatening to cut off access for Fowler and the Sentinel. Meyer then says to Fowler, “If that was my son, we’d be going at it right now.” Good to see Urban has his stress under control. Wasn’t he taking a leave of absence? Instead of talking to the reporter on the side — not unlike the way a coach would work an official to get a call later in the game — the Gators immediately cut off all interaction between the media and the team. The bullying gets cranked up even more. And it’s only March. This could be a fun year. Don’t be shocked if in the post-Tebow world of covering the Gators, the media seem more negative. Florida fans will insist it is a newfound media bias. Everyone else will scream, “Finally, they are doing their jobs.” In reality, the media will largely be printing the truth. It’s just that for the first five years of Meyer’s regime, the truth was however it was seen by Meyer. Now the truth may be how it is seen by the media. And the Gators may not be able to handle that truth. David Moulton is a freelance writer.

RE: [gatortalk] Re: [gatornews] Meyer, media and the truth all tangled up at UF
Here is a few thoughts that I have for what they are worth (perhaps not even $.02): 1. I can fully understand how and why he erupted. I really believe that Urban Meyer feels like some (most) of the players are family. When my family is hurt, I am defensive and it will upset me. I believe he acted out of his pain for his player's pain. 2. It is clear that some of the media took the quote out of context. The original quote was in context but it began to be perverted in a way it was not intended as it was reported by others. 3. I think it is clear that Deonte misspoke. I think he would have liked to have said a regular quarterback rather than real. If he could have a do-over he would either have not said anything or might have said regular. 4. I think the journalist might have wished that he could have a do-over and asked Deonte if that was really what he meant. Was he actually trying to say that Tim Tebow was not a real quarterback? I realize that in context that was clear. I know I have in the past asked people if they meant something the way it sounded because, in the group, there might be some that would not understand what the meant. 5. I think Urban Meyer might wish he had a do-over. I know I have on many occasions allowed my mouth to speak before my brain kicked in. I think this was one of those occasions. I would not be surprised if he has not called him privately and apologized. (I am also not sure that Urban would not be better served to publically apologize himself.)

I hear ya, Helen. And, I know you are right. Even if Urban full-mouth kisses Fowler on primetime TV, the media attack will continue until none us can remember or care anymore.

If he'd waited two days, then wiped the mud from Deonte's uniform, it would have died. One interview with Deonte saying that he meant 'regular' would have killed it. A.

[gatortalk] RE: [gatornews] Something is Still wrong with Urban
Now that's awfully harsh. _ From: gatorn...@googlegroups.com [mailto:gatorn...@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of Helen Huntley Sent: Friday, March 26, 2010 4:05 PM To: gatorn...@googlegroups.com Subject: [gatornews] Something is Still wrong with Urban Thursday, March 25, 2010 Updated: March 26, 2:31 PM ET Something is still wrong with Urban _ By Roy Peter Clark Special to ESPN.com University of Florida head football coach Urban Meyer has proved himself to be a bully and a hypocrite. His threats against an Orlando Sentinel reporter, Jeremy Fowler, on Wednesday confirm the coach's emotional instability, a sign that he may have been allowed to return way too early from his medical leave of absence. According to audiotapes and eyewitness accounts of the event, Meyer confronted Fowler in the presence of about 20 other reporters, pointed his finger and threatened to ban Fowler -- along with other Sentinel reporters -- from access to practices and Gators players. Low: So much for easing into things http://assets.espn.go.com/i/columnists/low_chris_m.jpg Urban Meyer's tirade against a Florida beat writer was misplaced. If Meyer has a beef with anybody, it's with his player and his choice of words, writes Chris Low. http://espn.go.com/blog/sec/post/_/id/9748/so-much-for-meyer-easing-back-in to-things Blog Fowler's sin, according to Meyer, involved a quote from Florida wide receiver Deonte Thompson that the reporter published. In an interview, Thompson contrasted the playing style of former Gators quarterback Tim Tebow with that of his successor, John Brantley. You never know with Tim, Fowler quoted Thompson on his blog. You'll think he's running, but then he'll just come up and pass it to you. You just have to be ready at all times. With Brantley, everything's with rhythm, time. Like, you know what I mean, a real quarterback. There's nothing wrong with this quote, nothing for which the student or the reporter should have to apologize. It is, in fact, a canny analysis, from someone whose hands should know, of the difference between an improvisational quarterback and a more conventional one -- say, Doug Flutie versus John Unitas. Then, two things happened: A truncated version of the quote appeared on various sports blogs, and it spread quickly. Ripped out of context, it sounded as if Thompson were using real quarterback against Tebow, the way my wife might contrast me with Sean Connery, who she thinks is a real man. A friend and admirer of Tebow, Thompson was mortified when he came under real criticism from some real Gators fans and real devout Tim worshippers who did not get his intended meaning. John Brantley https://mail.google.com/photo/2010/0325/ncf_a_brantley2_200.jpg John Brantley is no Tim Tebow. But . uhh, who is? Enter Meyer at a Gators practice with this in-your-face slam to the reporter: You'll be out of practice -- you understand that? -- if you do that again. I told you [the media] five years ago: Don't mess with our players. Don't do it. You did it. You do it one more time and the Orlando Sentinel's not welcome here ever again. Is that clear? It's yes or no. On the Sentinel's Web site, the reporter described his response: Urban, come on. Don't make any threats. That's fine. I'll play by rules. But all I was doing is quoting the guy. I don't think I was the only one. That fired up the coach: You're a bad guy, man. You're a bad guy. If that was my son, we'd be going at it right now. Going at it right now? I've never met Fowler, but in my fantasy he is built like pro wrestler John Cena. He moves into the coach's space, stares him in the eye and says, You want some, Coach? Then come get some. Instead, the reporter exercised a level of professional restraint, showing the coach who the bigger man is. Consider the hypocrisy. Think about the past four years of media reports about Florida football, about how Meyer exalted Tebow and invited a level of coverage of his golden boy that approached canonization. How can Meyer castigate the news media for a player's hurt feelings when he has enjoyed countless hours of coverage of the virtues and triumphs of his substitute son? Deonte Thompson https://mail.google.com/photo/2010/0325/ncf_u_thompson11_200.jpg Deonte Thompson's comments about Tim Tebow and John Brantley started the hullabaloo. When coverage of his team swung out of control, Meyer snapped, proving, as if we needed proof, that he is, like so many other coaches, a control freak. He -- and sports programs everywhere -- continue to limit access to players, facilities, even games. Schools and coaches want control of the image. They want control of the message. And, most of all, they want control of the revenues. It would all be paradise . if it weren't for those pesky reporters. Guess what? Some of those pesky reporters who have covered the Gators throughout the years are alumni of the University of Florida journalism
Re: [gatortalk] Re: [gatornews] Meyer, media and the truth all tangled up at UF
It might help some of you to know that this is the same reporter that tried to get to Coach Meyer's daughter Nikki to get her to make some quotes during the time of the revelation of Coach Meyer's health issues. I don't know about some of you, but personally, I think Coach has shown remarkable restraint. He has had several personal discussions with this individual and he has shown himself over the last 5 years to be, in this Gator's opinion, a reprehensible jerk and had a lot more coming than he actually recieved. I don't know if you all have seen the complete video's of both Deonte's interview (it lasted 10 minutes) where this jerk took one answer that fit his agenda and the video of of Coach Meyer confronting him. Coach did not shout or use profanities, was just very firm in his statments and walked away after having his say. It might also interest you that this guy has changed his blog entry 3 tiime since posting it after the blow up to try to cover his ineptitude. If you want to try to imply that Coach Meyer has a problem, you might need a lot more fact and insight before making that judgment.

For Urban to throw a temper tantrum and draw a line in the sand over something as minor as this is ridiculous. I'm will Helen on this for two reasons. First, UM3 needs to learn how to handle stress for his own health reasons. This is the opposite of the approach he should be taking. Second, take a lesson from mud. You get a little mud on a nice jacket and leave it be; it will dry up and flake off on its own. You try and clean it off immediately, and its gets worked into the fabric. The stain never goes away, and the jacket is ruined. Perceived bad press is like mud. Just leave it alone, and let it go away. Attack the press, and be prepared to be stained forever. To be frank, I didn't even think the press was that bad. I read the article (it was posted to GatorNews) and read real quarterback to mean traditional as opposed to hybrid.

For Urban to throw a temper tantrum and draw a line in the sand over something as minor as this is ridiculous. I'm will Helen on this for two reasons. First, UM3 needs to learn how to handle stress for his own health reasons. This is the opposite of the approach he should be taking. Second, take a lesson from mud. You get a little mud on a nice jacket and leave it be; it will dry up and flake off on its own. You try and clean it off immediately, and its gets worked into the fabric. The stain never goes away, and the jacket is ruined. Perceived bad press is like mud. Just leave it alone, and let it go away. Attack the press, and be prepared to be stained forever. To be frank, I didn't even think the press was that bad. I read the article (it was posted to GatorNews) and read real quarterback to mean traditional as opposed to hybrid.

By the way, I use quick grits primarily because they are the only kind Wal-Mart carries up here. Other stores don’t even know what grits are. As for the Yogurt, it does two things: First it brings out the sharpness of the cheese. Second, it makes the grits creamy somewhat like butter does but at a fraction of the calories. As I get older and my metabolism slows, I have to be increasingly careful about my caloric intake. I sometimes believe I can gain wait on a 2000 calorie diet.

The only way to eat grits is with 2 eggs over easy, bacon and crisp toast slathered in butter. You spoon the grits over the eggs and chop/stir them together. Add salt and pepper to taste. One uses the toast to hem in the grits and eggs so that they can be scooped up properly. As one eats the grits and eggs, one takes an occasional bite from the bacon.

Actually, I believe the pictures were only $75 a pop, where the autographs were $160. I would rather have the picture than the autograph myself! The reason the autos are so much is because of the ridiculous autograph resale market out there (also why there was an upcharge for inscriptions like 2007 Heisman Winner or 2006 2008 National Champs but no extra charge for adding your name or a bible verse to the autograph.

His threats against an Orlando Sentinel reporter, Jeremy Fowler, on Wednesday confirm the coach's emotional instability, a sign that he may have been allowed to return way too early from his medical leave of absence. According to audiotapes and eyewitness accounts of the event, Meyer confronted Fowler in the presence of about 20 other reporters, pointed his finger and threatened to ban Fowler -- along with other Sentinel reporters -- from access to practices and Gators players. Low: So much for easing into things http://assets.espn.go.com/i/columnists/low_chris_m.jpg Urban Meyer's tirade against a Florida beat writer was misplaced. If Meyer has a beef with anybody, it's with his player and his choice of words, writes Chris Low. http://espn.go.com/blog/sec/post/_/id/9748/so-much-for-meyer-easing-back-in to-things Blog Fowler's sin, according to Meyer, involved a quote from Florida wide receiver Deonte Thompson that the reporter published. In an interview, Thompson contrasted the playing style of former Gators quarterback Tim Tebow with that of his successor, John Brantley. You never know with Tim, Fowler quoted Thompson on his blog. You'll think he's running, but then he'll just come up and pass it to you. You just have to be ready at all times. With Brantley, everything's with rhythm, time. Like, you know what I mean, a real quarterback. There's nothing wrong with this quote, nothing for which the student or the reporter should have to apologize. It is, in fact, a canny analysis, from someone whose hands should know, of the difference between an improvisational quarterback and a more conventional one -- say, Doug Flutie versus John Unitas. Then, two things happened: A truncated version of the quote appeared on various sports blogs, and it spread quickly. Ripped out of context, it sounded as if Thompson were using real quarterback against Tebow, the way my wife might contrast me with Sean Connery, who she thinks is a real man. A friend and admirer of Tebow, Thompson was mortified when he came under real criticism from some real Gators fans and real devout Tim worshippers who did not get his intended meaning. John Brantley https://mail.google.com/photo/2010/0325/ncf_a_brantley2_200.jpg John Brantley is no Tim Tebow. But . uhh, who is? Enter Meyer at a Gators practice with this in-your-face slam to the reporter: You'll be out of practice -- you understand that? -- if you do that again. I told you [the media] five years ago: Don't mess with our players. Don't do it. You did it. You do it one more time and the Orlando Sentinel's not welcome here ever again. Is that clear? It's yes or no. On the Sentinel's Web site, the reporter described his response: Urban, come on. Don't make any threats. That's fine. I'll play by rules. But all I was doing is quoting the guy. I don't think I was the only one. That fired up the coach: You're a bad guy, man. You're a bad guy. If that was my son, we'd be going at it right now. Going at it right now? I've never met Fowler, but in my fantasy he is built like pro wrestler John Cena. He moves into the coach's space, stares him in the eye and says, You want some, Coach? Then come get some. Instead, the reporter exercised a level of professional restraint, showing the coach who the bigger man is. Consider the hypocrisy. Think about the past four years of media reports about Florida football, about how Meyer exalted Tebow and invited a level of coverage of his golden boy that approached canonization. How can Meyer castigate the news media for a player's hurt feelings when he has enjoyed countless hours of coverage of the virtues and triumphs of his substitute son? Deonte Thompson https://mail.google.com/photo/2010/0325/ncf_u_thompson11_200.jpg Deonte Thompson's comments about Tim Tebow and John Brantley started the hullabaloo. When coverage of his team swung out of control, Meyer snapped, proving, as if we needed proof, that he is, like so many other coaches, a control freak.

I don't know about some of you, but personally, I think Coach has shown remarkable restraint. He has had several personal discussions with this individual and he has shown himself over the last 5 years to be, in this Gator's opinion, a reprehensible jerk and had a lot more coming than he actually recieved. I don't know if you all have seen the complete video's of both Deonte's interview (it lasted 10 minutes) where this jerk took one answer that fit his agenda and the video of of Coach Meyer confronting him. Coach did not shout or use profanities, was just very firm in his statments and walked away after having his say. It might also interest you that this guy has changed his blog entry 3 tiime since posting it after the blow up to try to cover his ineptitude.

For Urban to throw a temper tantrum and draw a line in the sand over something as minor as this is ridiculous. I'm will Helen on this for two reasons. First, UM3 needs to learn how to handle stress for his own health reasons. This is the opposite of the approach he should be taking. Second, take a lesson from mud. You get a little mud on a nice jacket and leave it be; it will dry up and flake off on its own. You try and clean it off immediately, and its gets worked into the fabric. The stain never goes away, and the jacket is ruined. Perceived bad press is like mud. Just leave it alone, and let it go away. Attack the press, and be prepared to be stained forever. To be frank, I didn't even think the press was that bad. I read the article (it was posted to GatorNews) and read real quarterback to mean traditional as opposed to hybrid.

Second, it makes the grits creamy somewhat like butter does but at a fraction of the calories. As I get older and my metabolism slows, I have to be increasingly careful about my caloric intake. I sometimes believe I can gain wait on a 2000 calorie diet. By the way, yogurt can be a reasonable substitute for sour cream or crème fresh in most recipes. I can get away with low fat yogurt.
