    NFL DRAFT - Who will get the first pick?

    anybody out there with Brady Quinn's stats...ie height, weight, etc. He'd better be a good size kid, to be able to handle the beating he's going to get if the raiders or lions draft Him. What about the Ohio QB? Troy Smith? is he a legitamate NFL QB? where would/should he go in the draft? Not...

    Sioux City, no. DFW Area...depends on what you are driving. currently looking for 1 or 2 teams in a 22-24 ft unit right now. wouldn't start driving until mid to late January, so the holidays wouldn't be a factor on how slow it is right now. ;)

    That is a question that I wouldn't know the answer to, that's a sales question. Unfortunately, we (the little guys) are getting almost zero information as to what our sales is doing, or how they do it.

    that area is not a very busy one for us at this time. There is no way I could speculate on how busy we could keep a driver in that area, it's always a crapshoot. We currently have very few (less than five) customers within 50 miles of Moline, most of which utilize ST or TT on the runs they do...

    Of course, I would like to jump in on this. Of the small group of "new" owner operators we've hired, just as the above post states, it's fair to midland. some of our cargo vans are doing great, some not so good, and some just downright terrible. I have been recruiting since September, and I feel...

    Locally, GSP is not the cat's meow...our current customer base is fair to midland, but the sales staff is hitting that area pretty hard, so I would expect much more business in the next month or two.

    Detroit has all of a sudden dried up for us...strange how that happens. With the transition from Menlo customers to UPS customers, I just can't justify hiring anymore drivers, until I'm sure we can keep you busy. PM me for more details. ;)

    Go sweet Lou!

    Haven't been to wrigley since I was 13, which is now 30 years ago. I believe Lou brock was still playing for the cardinals, and He hit a basket home run to left field. I'm planning a trip this summer just to go to wrigley, and of course get a chicago dog and maxwell street polish!! this trip is...

    NFL wants the Bears

    The cardinals defense gave up three points because Rex Grossman played like absolute crap! He needs to learn that not every pass can be a 20+ yard completion. How many passes did Thomas Jones catch? Defenses are learning, as they should, that He won't dump off the ball when downfield is not...

    Go sweet Lou!

    As a chicago native, I'm pretty pumped about the hiring of Lou Pinella (sp?) as the new manager. I never did like Dusty Baker, with his wristbands and toothpick. :7 I was really wondering: does the manager REALLY make that much of a difference in baseball? the head coach in football/basketball...

    That depends on if you want to do OTR or local. I'm actually pretty good for local (airport drops/deliveries) runs in the Indy area, but anticipate needing OTR drivers here in the next month or so. peace....;)
