EXCERPT: "Ladies and Gentleman, Boys and Girls, Children of all ages, Welcome to one of the most exciting sporting events in the world. It is MARCH MADNESS!!!!!!!!!!"
It's that time a year again when we all  hustle around and try to find the latest statistic on the team/players that we think are going to either aid in winning the tourney, or just plain win the whole kit-n-caboodle. Stats are a good thing to look at. But i want everyone to look at this tourney in a different...

EXCERPT: Alright Alright Alright. That's what I love about March Madness, I get older and it stays the same age...
I haven't watched enough college basketball this season to write a real breakdown of the brackets. Something I've noticed though, with the exception of Melo's Orangemen, is that the championship team always seems to have the most collective talent, period. Good coaching in the regular season, or one spectacular player, can make up for a lack of overall talent....

EXCERPT: In looking through this site and I'm very surprised that there aren't more sports with March Madness beginning this week.  Sports have always been a great way for people to sit back and kick off the trials and tribulations that fill their normal everyday stressful lives.  With all the heated battles in the political ring it only seems natural that some of that writing would carry over to the sports arena.  The NCAA Tournament is always exciting and the system...

EXCERPT: Watching March Madness is like watching a movie for a month without having any idea what’s about to happen. Heads or tails, we win.
This NCAA men’s college basketball season is like watching the red carpet before the Academy Awards. The real action is about to start. A-Lister’s like North Carolina, Kansas, UCLA and Duke have confidently flashed million dollar smiles all season long as we’ve watched them strut their stuff towards the Big Dance. Flashy newcomers like Tennessee, Drake...

EXCERPT: Welcome to my 1st Annual NBA Power Rankings. Being one of the last remaining true NBA fans on the planet I believe I'm totally capable of putting together a comprehensive list that many, many people will disagree with.
Instead of a traditional Power Rankings Poll I am only listing the teams with a legitimate shot at winning the NBA title. Here it goes...
1. San Antonio Spurs: They're the Champs until someone knocks them off. They might not be the sexy pick but they still get...

EXCERPT: It is today the fourth of March in the year 2008 that Bret Favre has announced his retirement from American Football, the Green Bay Packers, and from the National Football League. It appears that an era has closed with greats such as Joe Montana, Dan Marino, and Brett Favre leaving the NFL Scene while a new generation of players appears to be taking over. It cannot be denied that Bret Favre was synonymous with the Green Bay Packers. Bret Favre had a career of one Super Bowl title,...

EXCERPT: LOL, what do any of these political geeks know about hoops?  This is going to be like stealing votes from Obama.  Do I get paid extra  for spanking the field in this contest or are you guys going to be marketing this to "real" sports fans?  Maybe R.D. will even try to rise to the cause on this challenge.  The democrats will be whining the whole time about their teams not getting the right calls, the Clinton supporters will wonder why there are no...

EXCERPT: Did anyone see the end of that Laker game?  Kobe took over in the 4th only to have Nowitzki drain a 3 pointer at the end of regulation.  Not to be denied, Kobe ran his point total over 50 in OT to help give the Lakers the win.  It's good to see Ole Jack out on the floor with the Lakers winning again.  I think I'll start watching more regularly again now that the political race is locked up for us Republicans.  I'm sure some of you political...

EXCERPT: I am reading on the ESPN Website about US Senator Arlen Specter [Republican] from Pennsylvania wanting to investigate the National Football League [NFL by its acronym]. It all starts from the fact that the New England Patriots were found to be videotaping the opponents practices and getting caught in the process. It was also found that after the NFL did not pursue the matter, they destroyed the tapes or someone might have destroyed the tapes. The centre of the storm is the former...

EXCERPT: There has been a lot of news coming out of the baseball world about steroids since Jose Canseco published his tell all book on those that took steroids. The book took a life on its own after the US Government including Congress launched an investigation into steroid use with the baseball personalities testifying before Congress. It has become the fashion to use Roger Clemens as the Whipping Boy for the Use of Steroids.
Personally, I do not think that Clemens was on Steroids and I am...
