Stern’s Arrogant Indifference
Whether we like it or not, perception is often viewed as reality. It's irrelevant if there's no truth or substantial evidence to back up conspiracy theories, but Wednesday night May 30th, 2012 will go down as an infamous night in NBA history. It started with soon to be New Orleans Hornets owner, Tom Benson (the same guy that's running a Saints [...]
Adopting The Spurs
Call it jumping on the bandwagon. If you feel obligated, bust my balls for being a Johnny come lately. Go ahead and say that I'm only joining the Spurs fan club because they're about to turn the Miami Heat into the June laughingstock of the league again. Have at it because I simply don't care. And you'll have to excuse me if I'm not anxiously [...]
Tackling Bears Concerns
The beauty of the NFL is that it's never too early to look ahead to September. Everything the NFL does is big and with a sense of we're number 1 and we don't give a shit about your league. From releasing the new Nike uniforms, to the schedule release, to the Draft & everything in between is covered like a Pacquiao or Mayweather prize [...]
Could The Bulls Go For LeBron Again?
So, who's ready for two more years of NBA hell? If you haven't gotten Stacey King's memo yet, prepare yourself because you're about to witness the Bulls sink deeper into the worst possible place you be in the NBA. GarPax has admitted as much saying they'll take a step back initially with the D Rose injury, but they want to be able to have [...]
Don’t Be A Shortsighted Idiot
Let me guess, you're getting your balls busted at work and everywhere in between by your White Sox fan friends who probably made the broom sweeping motion? Original, I know. Their inferiority complex has subsided some with the sweep over a Cubs team that features about 4 players that will matter in the future (Starlin Castro, Brian LaHair [...]
Swag Is For Clowns
There was a picture that made the rounds earlier this NBA season that showed Dwyane Wade & LeBron James all swagged out next to Derrick Rose & Luol Deng dressed in finely tailored suits. It read, swag is for boys, class is for men. It was fitting and exemplified the business like approach of Rose & Deng, and the look at me [...]
Wood Epitomized Cubs Failures
There's nothing wrong with being nostalgic. I'm as guilty as anyone when it comes to reliving, reminiscing & summarizing the careers of my favorite athletes of all-time. To this day, I still YouTube highlights and games of guys like Walter, Michael, Jerry, Joe, Pip & Savard. I'd put Ryno on that list, but the MLB is stuck in the stone [...]
The Broken System
As easy and lazy as could be to go the ESPN remedial route and talk about Kobe Bryant's clutchness, the real story after the Lakers game 2 meltdown vs the Thunder is that reality is setting in for one of the game's greatest players. The Lake Show had firm control of game that would have given them homecourt advantage in this [...]
The LeBron Comedy Hour
It shouldn't be like this. We shouldn't be "witnesses" to a comedy show when it involves the most dominant player in the association & one of the greatest players of our lifetime. When I first saw LeBron James play in high school, the thought was, "how many championships is this guy going to win?" That thought continued when he had [...]
AJ 17 Highlights
It didn't take new Bears GM Phil Emery long to watch tape of the Bears offense and projectile vomit all over the place. I'm embellishing some, but he had to at least become nauseous watching the kick returners and bums (Roy Williams) that lined up at receiver the last three years ever since the Jay Cutler trade. In trading for Brandon [...]
