A tradition unlike any other 2008-01-03 08:31:44 I'd like to think that the reason I was watching hockey on New Year's Day was because of an unruly hangover. This is probably just wishful thinking. Because truth be told, I have just become completely disinterested in bowl games. TCU vs Houston? Alabama vs Colorado? No thank you.
And to think, this is the reason we don't have playoffs; to secure the sanctity of the bowl tradition. Who wants to?
Year in review, for the future 2007-12-28 13:49:49 "History is the version of past events that people have decided to agree upon." - Napoleon Bonaparte
When we look back at the events that shaped the sports world in 2007, it is easy to assume that is was a very big year. Dogfights, gambling, spying, stealing, doping - you name it - it was a big black mark. But what will really be remembered after it is all said and done? There's no way to know Read more: review

Playoffs dwarfed by the regular season for the NBA 2008-05-14 13:47:33 Most basketball fans will agree that the 2007-08 NBA
regular
season was one of the best in recent memory. Watching the return of glory for both the Celtics and Lakers, Lebron giving Garnett-like effort every game, the beast that is Chris Paul, landmark trades, and of course, the seeding race in the West. It made the 82-game marathon watchable again. But then, the playoffs began.
Once again, the Read more: Playoffs
The Evolution of Kobe Bryant 2008-05-23 08:59:00 I have always been a Kobe Bryant
hater. I think of him as a cocky, ball-hogging, backstabbing adulterer, a symbol of everything that's wrong with the NBA. During the offseason, it seemed as if I couldn't hate him more. He threw his teammates under the bus, demanded a trade, and pretty much threw a tantrum like a five year old kid. Like a good parent, the Lakers didn't bow down, let Kobe cry it Read more: Evolution

Is Lakers-Celtics really that big a deal? 2008-06-03 08:27:35 Leading up to the Finals, every hardcore NBA fan was playing the same tune; a Celtics-Lakers match up would be the best possible scenario for the league. This, for the most part, has been wholly undisputed. The points seem to be that people like the rivalry and there are enough stars to draw mass attention. I'm not so sold.
