Really, the only surprise attached to this move is that it took so long to happen. Yes, the Memphis Grizzlies have decided to ship the No. 2 pick in the draft off to the NBADL — the highest pick to ever grace a developmental roster.
You could have seen this story play out from the beginning: [...]
Team Canada’s ice hockey team had better thank their lucky stars for two things: That Roberto Luongo is currently better than Martin Brodeur and that they lost to the U.S. in the preliminary round.
Luongo’s play in net has far surpassed that of Canada’s apparent No. 1 goalie and now the whole country is reaping the [...]
Well, anybody who knows anything about football could have seen this one coming: LaDainian Tomlinson was released by the San Diego Chargers on Monday. Really, he hasn’t been effective for the past two seasons, being used mainly in goal line situations to pad his TD stats, and looked like he’s never really mentally recovered from [...]
It wasn’t exactly a sequel to the Miracle on Ice, but Sunday night’s game had a familiar story line. A young and plucky American ice hockey squad faced a juggernaut rival in a big Olympic moment. The USA, despite having the odds stacked against them, pulled out a win over the overwhelming favourite. Sure, winning [...]
A lot went down at the NBA’s trade deadline this season, a far cry from when Fred Jones to moving was the biggest shakeup of the day. But with the world focussing on the Spring Olympics and Tiger Woods’ impression of a robot, it wasn’t surprising to see it pushed back in some sports sections. [...]
Can you believe that we are living in a world in which the Winter Olympics are going on and that isn’t stopping pitchers and catchers from reporting to Spring Training? Spring Training and Winter Olympics going on at the same time? Sounds like some sort of paradox.
It could be easily argued that these Games hardly [...]
Since their Super Bowl loss to the Tampa Bay Bucs back in 2003, the Oakland Raiders have been the butt end of every joke in the NFL. They’ve bungled trades, free agent signings and draft picks; in our words, every personnel decision possible.
Last off-season they gave their lone star Nnamdi Asomugha the richest contract that [...]
Something needs to be done about NBA all-star weekend. The game itself on Sunday night was entertaining and enjoyable, I’m sure the record 108,713 people in attendance will share that thought too, but Saturday was an utter disaster.
First off, HORSE might have been as poorly executed as it could have possibly gotten. The announcers seemed [...]
In case you didn’t notice by the endless commercials, promos and posters everywhere for the Winter Games, the Vancouver Olympics kicked off last night while the NHL packs up their league to sit around idle for two whole weeks in the middle of what should be the start to their stretch run.
Why would a league [...]
That title isn’t as racist as it sounds; it’s merely a nice nickname for the NBA’s all-star weekend. And, fittingly enough, it’s taking place at a football stadium and, by all accounts so far, it will shatter the mark for attendance at a basketball game.
Yes, the Dallas Cowboys, err, Maverick are hosting the event at [...]
