Your turn

* Troy Aikman's evaluation of Peyton Manning's season (TSN, November 4) should end all discussions. Aikman is an authority on quarterbacking in the NFL. He may not have led a fantasy team to its league championship, but he has three Super Bowl rings.--Chris Williams, Kansas City

* For years, I believed the NBA had the worst officiating. Then in this year's major league baseball playoffs, I learned how inconsistency, lack of communication and bad calls can influence outcomes. But after watching probably too much college football, I see the light: Big 12 football officials are the worst of the bunch.--Scott M. Roth, Omaha, Neb.

* You listed Ohio State linebackers A.J. Hawk and Bobby Carpenter as Half All-Americans (TSN, November 4). But when the two teams played, Penn State's Paul Posluszny had more tackles than Hawk and Carpenter combined. It's about time people start giving some love to "Linebacker U."-Luke Wills, Williamsport, Pa.

* Hockey got only a short blurb about one upcoming game and a trite piece about the Stanley Cup (TSN, November 4). NASCAR, on the other hand, got about seven pages. There should be more space devoted to hockey now that the season is under way.--Michael Griffin, New York

* Ken Rosenthal says Mike Hampton revived his career working with Leo Mazzone (TSN, November 4). But Hampton's career was revived because he left Colorado. He was a good pitcher before signing with the Rockies, winning 22 games for the Astros in 1999.--Jimmie D. Jones, New Braunfels, Texas
