Is Black Just a Shade of Gray?
I heard that there was an ESPN documentary on a few days ago about the Fab Five. I convinced myself that it was a re-run of 30 for 30 on the fab five, so I purposely missed it. Then I heard the fall-out. Apparently Jalen Rose, who was one of the five Michigan basketball … Continue reading
Sacrifice the Youth
Recently, the NFLPA asked those who are entering the 2012 draft to…well…not attend the draft. They are asking for a rookie boycott in solidarity with the rest of the players union against the owners and league who refuse to compromise their terms of the CBA. Smells like a lockout to me.

The Madness is starting early…’Nova falls apart
Villanova continues its month long implosion by polishing off its season with a loss to South Florida in the Big East tournament. Besides one weak win over Seton Hall and a sad overtime win over DePaul, Nova hasn’t really made a dent in the win category since the February 5th win over West Virginia. Yesterday, … Continue reading
