Vinny’s Coaching Funeral
The Vinny Del Negro "coaching" experiment should have ended the night that John Paxson grabbed him by the tie and nearly beat the shit out of him. Only the Clippers could watch this guy run basic screen and rolls & isolations with the Bulls and think, "ya know what, this is our guy!" Only those same Clippers could look at Del Negro as the [...]
Coach Of The Year…Again
Before we fast forward to the Bulls & Heat in the eastern conference finals, can we first present Bulls coach Tom Thibodeau with this year's coach of the year award? I know it's taboo to reward a coach with this award two years in a row, but how can anyone in a sober state of mind vote for anyone else? Sure, Stan Van Jeremy has held his [...]
Suck It, Canucks
If the Vancouver Canucks weren't such typical European bitches, their rivalry with the Blackhawks would be good, but it wouldn't be personal for so many fans who sit on the edge of their seats when the two teams play. For whatever reason, hockey still brings out my inner meatball. When Duncan Keith elbows Daniel Sedin (see the video above) [...]
Alex Smith Is Adversity
You would think that a freshly signed 3 year deal worth $8-$9 million guaranteed in a world where contract lengths are meaningless would provide comfort for a guy who once signed for $24 million guaranteed as a rookie. But if you've followed Alex Smith's tumultuous career with the 49ers, you know that rarely do things flow in a calm and [...]
Manning Is Elway’s Savior
John Elway's shit eating grin said it all. He was as giddy introducing Peyton Manning as the new Broncos quarterback as Jerry West was upon signing Shaquille O'Neal in the summer of '96. I'd be willing to bet anything that the former 2-time Super Bowl winning legend has been Tebowing ever since Manning informed him that he was coming to [...]
Duke Losing Makes March Madness
While most of the sports world is talking, writing, tweeting & spending a ridiculous amount time talking about Peyton Manning's move to the Mile-High City, I continue to revel in yet another March loss by the most despised college basketball team in the country. I don't have a favorite college basketball team that I root fanatically for. [...]
St. Patrick’s Day Sucks
I get it, you want to get dressed up in all of your green garb, get drunk off green beer and bad whiskey, wear dumb-ass beads & bar hop like a fresh 21 year old. St. Patrick's Day is one of the year's biggest excuses to drink yourself retarded for no reason other than the fact that everyone you know is slamming drinks at a herculean pace. [...]
Melo’s Not A Winner
All you need to know about Carmelo Anthony was the audio clip that TNT caught during the all-star game in Orlando. Melo was jawing at Kobe Bryant during a stoppage of play and told the Mamba... "You hear Tom (Tom Thibodeau)? He's like, hey Melo, hey Melo...Get on the boards." Melo was laughing it up and seemed insulted that a coach would [...]
Screw D Wade Everything
Come on now, you don't really like Dwyane Wade, right? I'm not talking about a basketball player, I'm talking about his swagalicious personality that shows how big of a diva he is. D Wade sure has a lot of class, it's just too bad that it's all low. Full disclosure, I didn't watch the Bulls 106-102 win over the "Heatles" live because I [...]
Why Rose Doesn’t Get MVP Calls
You know you're watching pure greatness when a player who just finished lighting up a hyped up Knicks squad for 32 points, 7 dimes & 6 boards is testy and aggravated in the post game locker room. Watching the reigning MVP say "I've gotta be the only superstar in the league that's going through what I'm going through right now, but I can't [...]
