But, so is Georgia, and the Bulldogs have the added benefit of having a very, very good placekicker and punter, too.Tech's kickoff coverage could be its most dangerous weakness this weekend.Advantage: Georgia, all the way CoachingToughest call here. Mark Richt is a fine Xs-and-Os man, perhaps one of the finest. Paul Johnson has been called the best coaching hire of the last 30 years, and he's easily one of the top tacticians in the southeast (Notice I didn't just say ACC).For me, this one is decided at the next level.Georgia Tech has strong support personnel, and while Dave Wommack's defense has been plain atrocious at times this season, they have improvedsignificantly. And, whether it's Wommack or Johnson pulling the strings, the Jackets make great halftime adjustments on defense.Any Georgia fan want to step up and make the case for Willie MartinezAdvantage: Georgia Tech, but it's even if we're only talking head coaches So that's my take Tell me why I'm wrong.. 
NEW YORK, Jan 8 (Reuters) - Telecommunications company Level 3 Communications Inc (LVLT.O) said on Thursday that it expects its margins to improve over the next two years and that it has enough cash to deal with upcoming debt maturities, helping its shares rise 25 percent.

"EBITDA margin went from the high teens at tail-end of 2007 to now in the mid 20's, and we'll push to the high 20's over the course of this year and the 30's next year," he said Level 3 shares rose 24 cents to $1.20 in afternoon trade. The shares have been on the rise following the company's debt buyback in late December, a move that alleviated investors' concerns about its ability to refinance debt. Patel said the company had enough cash to pay off all of its 2009 and 2010 debt maturities.

Now, I get it.I get why George Washington designated special days for a national thanksgiving.Why Abraham Lincoln proclaimed Thanksgiving as a national holiday to be celebrated the last Thursday in November.I get it and I appreciate it.So, it is with this new-found appreciation for a national day dedicated to giving thanks that I present not just my personal Clipper related thanks, but my hopes for the team as well.Where thanks is about looking back and at the presenthope is about looking forward.The following are my Clipper Thanksgiving AND Hopegiving wishes for the season.. ...Chris Kaman, Al Thornton, Baron Davis and everyone else who wears the red white and blue can stay healthy before, during and after the pair arrives.. ...Ralph Lawler and Mike Smith are back behind the mike where they belong.. ...they don't open mouth and insert foot again November 29 when the Memphis Grizzlies and Hamed Haddadi visit Staples for "Iranian Heritage Day"..
...a respectable 6-9 record given the teams injuries this year.It could have been much worse.Take the starting off-guard (Gordon), power-forward (Griffin) and key bench contributor (Kareem Rush) from most any NBA team and they will struggle!. ...a seven game win streak that causes a rumble in the league.The team already has two in a row and only have one team in their next five with a winning record, Houston at 8-6. ...another team "hiccup" due to injuries or a just a bad run doesn't cause a knee-jerk reaction that sees Dunleavy dismissed.I guess it's a good thing Fox doesn't own the team or we might have seen Dunleavy gone at the first sign of a loss or some offensive comment.. ...a nice three year draft run by the Clippers.Al Thornton, Eric Gordon and Blake Griffin represent the teams future as well as a real turn-around in the teams draft fortunes.Isn't that the reason for the draft, to inject life into losing franchises .. the teams draft success continues in 2010 and beyond!. ...Chris Kaman is emerging as a quality NBA center.Known as much for his skill on the court as his long flowing mane (which flows no more)..
