Goodbye Nash, Hello Finals!

by Dan Bilicki In: Basketball

With a win on Friday night the San Antonio Spurs bounced Shawn Marion’s Suns to insure a date with the Utah Jazz in the West finals. This move only decreases my interest in the playoffs because while i do have a certain dislike of Steve Nash, it would’ve been more interesting to watch the high [...]

Interleague is wrap, for now…

by Dan Bilicki In: Baseball

With the marvel known as interleague play in the books after its first round of match ups and first string of “Why do we still have interleague?” articles, we’ve learned a few things.
The Mets are a lot better than the Yankees. Well, in all fairness, we already knew that but it should still be stated. [...]

Eww… Ottawa advances

by Dan Bilicki In: Ice Hockey

Much to the dismay of most hockey fans, the Ottawa Senators went into Buffalo and took game 5, the series and the Prince of Wales trophy home with them. Daniel Alfredsson scored a weak goal 10 minutes into overtime to secure the victory. The shot went through a defenseman’s legs and didn’t give Ryan Miller [...]

Pistons motor on

by Dan Bilicki In: Basketball

The Detroit Pistons were finally able to do in the pesky Chicago Bulls last night after failing to bounce them for the past two games. It was very improbable that Chi-town could actually come back from the 3-0 hole they dug themselves into but it looked like they could take a run at it the [...]

Last night in NBA land

by Dan Bilicki In: Basketball

The Suns couldn’t hold onto a lead they had almost the entire game. While they led for 43 of the 48 minutes roughly, the Spurs pulled out the victory in the clutch by playing a good 4th quarter. It was pretty much exactly what happened in game 5 with the teams on the reverse ends.
Playing [...]

MLS Stunner

by Dan Bilicki In: Soccer

This will most likely go down as the second biggest story of the year in Major League Soccer and hardly anybody will know about it. Last night, the Toronto F.C., an expansion team who didn’t score a goal in their first four games, overcame the defending champion Houston Dynamo 1-0 in front of nearly 20.000 [...]

NBA lays boots to the Suns

by Dan Bilicki In: Basketball

It hasn’t been a good week or so for the Phoenix Suns and it seems to only be getting worse. A day after Robert Horry gave Steve Nash a nice little fore-arm into the scorer’s table, the NBA suspended “Big Shot Bob” for the next two games but also took Amare Stoudemire and Boris Draw [...]

I take that back…

by Dan Bilicki In: Ice Hockey

Remember that thing I said about Anaheim’s impregnable defense? Well Detroit kind of poked some holes in that; five of them to be exact. With their 5-0 win last night they really showed how high powered they can play and showed they may be the favourite of this Western Conference Final. They poured it on [...]

Son of a Litsch

by Dan Bilicki In: Baseball

What a night it was for young Jesse Litsch. The Jays prospect was called up from double-A New Hampshire to start in his first major league game and looked like he’d been around the league for years. Litsch went 8 2/3 innings and gave up only 4 hits. He pitched so well that when manager [...]

NBA Championship on the line?

by Dan Bilicki In: Basketball

It’s not too hard to say that the Suns/Spurs series, that’s happening in the second round of this year’s playoffs, could give us the potential champion isn’t a statement that is out of reach. These two teams are clearly in the elite of the league and shouldn’t have too much trouble past their current opponent. [...]
