Sunday: Day of Unrest
Posted on 16 Aug 2011 by Steve Folsom.
Sunday Night Baseball on ESPN featured the St. Louis Cardinals hosting the Colorado Rockies. It was a great chance for Colorado to play well in front of a national audience; an audience who may not understand the team’s record in relation to their roster. Furthermore, the Rockies had an opportunity to win on Sunday for the first time in 17 attempts. The game got off to a great start when ...

WADE, JAMES, AND BOSH WILL HAVE THE LAST LAUGH
Posted on 15 Jul 2011 by Sean Eckhardt.
They were a punchline during this year's ESPY awards. Jokes about the Miami Heat drew huge laughter from the crowd, which of course included the Dallas Mavericks. Members of other teams could be seen chuckling during the monologue as well. The Boston Celtic's had guys in attendance like Ray Allen, who seemed to find the jokes funny. The laughter certainly had to feel b...

Time For a Little “Ack-nowledgment”
Posted on 29 Jun 2011 by Chase Smith.
Among the many rookie players the Mariners have called up as fillers this season, one name stands out among the rest. Young-gun 2B Dustin Ackley has become one of the more productive hitters in the Mariners offense and has been a significant contributor helping put more runs on the board in clutch situations. With strong plate discipline and natural power in his swing, this Arizona Fall Leag...

NBA Gods Mad About Miami
Posted on 19 Jun 2011 by Steven Keys.
It was a 1980 movie titled The Gods Must Be Crazy. Set in Africa, it told the story of a lone Coke bottle falling from a plane into the possession of a bushman (Xi) who believed it had been sent by God (Wikipedia). Though written as light-hearted comedy, who’s to say The Creator doesn’t at times work in such mysterious, subtle ways as a soda bottle dropping from the sky? Following that li...

Top Tweeters
Posted on 13 Jun 2011 by Nick Clason.
I love Twitter. It quite possibly could be an obsession of mine. I sit down every evening (or morning) to write a blog post, and I have my browser window pulled up and sized perfectly to allow my tweetdeck single column view to fit on the left side of my computer screen. I love Twitter. I am currently in the job market (if you know of any openings, let me know) and I am applying for anyth...

KING WADE TAKES CONTROL
Posted on 6 Jun 2011 by Sean Eckhardt.
There are a lot of people who think that LeBron having the nickname “King James” was a bit presumptuous. Dwyane Wade decided that he didn't really want to be called “Flash” anymore, since that moniker was bestowed upon him by the recently retired Shaquille O'Neal, who left the Heat just as he has left many of his former teams, with a bad aftertaste. Sorry DWade, but ...

Cam Newton: Draft Day Fool’s Gold
Posted on 28 Apr 2011 by Steven Keys.
He’s the latest crest in a new wave of run-first college quarterbacks, following in the fleet footsteps of campus legends Vince Young (Texas) and Tim Tebow (Florida). Like the affable Tim, Auburn’s Cam Newton is perfectly packaged for sport celebrity. Sizable and speedy, the elusive Camster kept his pearly-whites in perfect form by often avoiding the punishing tackles of many a hapless coll...
