Informative and opinionated sports blogging on NFL, NBA, MLB, NCAA Football, Boxing and MMA. Facts, not hype.
No chance of choking. Rory McIlroy is on the path to putting the dark days behind and beginning his new era of being golf’s next superstar. Quite fitting that he did it in Tiger Woods fashion. The PGA needed a star to break out sooner rather than later. They were due. The ratings probably weren’t [...]
Last week was a crazy week for College football. First the BCS strips USC of its championship and now the drama with Terrell Pryor and Ohio State. I’m still trying to understand how cash payments off the field gave Reggie Bush such an unfair advantage that it warranted the BCS stripping the entire Trojan team [...]
The great modern poet of our day Jay-Z has put this situation the Mavericks are now in into perspective through song. He says “On to the next one” As the fans went nuts after Jason Terry dunks to throw the final proverbial nail in the coffin, Dirk simply walked off without spending too much time [...]
Things are heating up as we are finally down to the NBA conference finals were the boys from the East and the West are battling for the honor of playing in the NBA Championship Finals in hopes of taking home the coveted Larry O’Brien Championship Trophy.

It’s not the flu, pneumonia, or even a dislocated left elbow that slowed LeBron James in the opening days of the Eastern Conference Finals. It’s the common cold.

Today is a moment that will always be part of sports history. There is nothing I can say that would be more worthy than the wise words of the Major League Hall of Famer, himself, Harmon Killebrew. “Life is precious and time is a key element. Let’s make every moment count and help those who [...]
It may have taken 7 games but it looks as though Robin, in Oklahoma City’s very own Batman and Robin combination, has finally realized his place. For some odd reason, the mentality of Kobe Bryant, Terrell Owens and Randy Moss have rolled into one man’s brain. Highlighted by a triple overtime win against the Grizzlies [...]
The big 3 took the low road to winning a championship. Public reaction to LeBron’s dreadful 1 hour decision special could have been mistaken for the King selling his soul to the devil for a championship. The highway to hell looks pretty good right about now. Prior to the beginning of the playoffs it was [...]
My wife saw all the men on Facebook who typed “Sweep” after the most decisive win I believe in Mavericks history. She said “Well if all these men really feel the need to do housework here’s a broom!” The Mavericks played an amazing game four in which the bench of the Mavs almost out played [...]
The Grunt Stops Here
Grunting is ruining tennis. Grunting, or shrieking as it is known on the WTA, has grown in volume in recent years. It is not only the decibel level that is rising but the amount of players choosing to make the repulsive noises. It has gotten so bad that BBC has launched a tool that allows [...]
