Starting the Friday thread a little early today because some of my best screw around on the Internet time comes between 6:00 and 8:00 everyday. Thought maybe putting one up now would accommodate some of the early risers that frequent the site. On to the questions!

1) High school baseball season starts next week in Kansas, as a coach I always end up giving little bits of advice to the juniors and seniors as they're thinking about college. What simple piece advice would YOU give an 18 year old kid about to head to college?

2) As I mentioned, I'm easily the most productive between 6 to 8 in the morning. What is your most productive time of the day? Least productive?

3) Looking back and knowing what you know now, what would you have done differently in terms of your career or working life?

4) In honor of spring training, when were you in the best shape of your life?
