Sosa and Starving Students -- Both Move, One Tested Positive For Steroids

In the summer of 1998, Sammy Sosa and Mark McGwire engaged in a home run battle for the ages and each jockeyed to overtake Roger Maris' the-record 61 home runs in one season. The two would be featured almost nightly as one would top the other seemingly each day en route to eclipsing the legendary mark. McGwire would end up with 70 home runs to Sosa's 65, but both accomplishments would later be tarnished not by Barry Bonds who would later hit 73 home runs in a single season, but also by steroid allegations. McGwire would take execute his fifth amendment right to not incriminate himself and now the New York Times is reporting that Sammy Sosa tested positive for steroid use in 2003. Sosa's reported positive test result comes shortly after another superstar, Alex Rodriguez, admitted to prior steroid use, further tainting the sport that is now loosely referred to as "America's Favorite Pastime".

It's important to note at this time that Sammy Sosa has never worked for Starving Students, yet we do our best to hit home runs each time we move you. Give us a call at (888) 931-MOVE (6683) and see how we can give you the best move you've ever had!

Shue Won't Move Back To Melrose Place

Andrew Shue, the actor who played "Billy" on the original rendition of Melrose Place, has refused to reprise the role that once made him a household name saying he doesn't think the show should be brought back. Shue noted that the show had a great run during its initial incarnation but that the series shouldn't be brought back. Interestingly enough, both Laura Leighton and Thomas Calabro will both be reprising their roles, taking their place alongside Ashlee Simpson-Wentz on the new series.

Keep in mind that just because Billy isn't coming back doesn't mean you should avoid your plans to move to Melrose Place or any other location. Go ahead and give us a call at (888) 931-MOVE (6683) and see how Starving Students can make our latest incarnation of your move better than any move you've ever had.

Umpire Gets People To Move Like Starving Students

A high school baseball game in Iowa became notable not because of anything any of the players did, but by the actions of the umpire who decided the crowd should do like Starving Students and move. Home umpire Don Briggs became upset after a run that was reversed after he realized time-out had been called, drew the ire of the West Burlington's skipper who received a warning from the home plate ump. Briggs also warned the crowd, which mysteriously didn't stop one fan from yelling out an objection. In retalliation for this defiance, Briggs made the decision to eject the crowd of 100.

Starving Students agrees with Briggs' decision of moving, just not the decision to force 100 baseball fans to move out of their seats and away from the game. If you'd like to move on your own terms, go ahead and give Starving Students a call at (888) 931-MOVE (6683) or shoot us an e-mail here today.
