The game after he scored 65 points, he dropped another 50. The game after that he dropped 60. When will this tear end? Probably soon just due to the law of averages but damn isn’t it exciting? The worst part of Mamba’s tear and the Laker’s winning streak is the fact that it seems that [...]

After being dealt from his cushy spot as Mike Vick’s back up in Atlanta, Matt Schaub will now, presumably, take the reins of the Houston Texan’s offense. Well, it’s only presumably because David Carr hasn’t lived up to his potential and there’s no way that the Texans would give away two draft picks and swap [...]

Since it’s always a cop out taking all the high seeds, you shouldn’t even feel good about your bracket if you’re leading right now [...]

What a great weekend it was to the Black Mamba. On Friday night, he dropped 65 points on the Portland Trailblazers and then followed that up with 50 points last night against Minnesota.

I am sitting at home right now, watching the two juggernauts of the West fighting for alpha-dog status in the NBA; the Dirk led Mavs vs. Steve Nash’s Suns and the funny thing is that I really don’t care. Usually in situations like this, I would be clutching my knees giggling like an Asian school [...]

Yesterday, Niagara best Florida A&M in the NCAA’s play-in game by a score of 77-69. While I did learn the actual reason for having this play-in game yesterday, it still seems very unfair to the participants, even if they are the two of the worst teams in the tournament.
Firstly, the NCAA added the play-in game [...]
