For now, they will forever be connected. One and two, white and black, a "sure thing" and "IF he can make plays from the pocket" Whatever adjectives and phrases you’d want to use to form a dichotomy between the two, it was acceptable. As time moves on though, it’s becoming clear that what everyone thought …
We've all gotten used to Lance Stephenson's on court antics by now. While his obsession with LeBron is historic, his flop game is equally awesome. This flop though sets a higher bar for a new low. Seriously, what the hell?!?! It's one thing to flop, to try and get a call going your way at …
Week 10 in the NFL started Thursday with an impressive showing by the Browns defeating Cincinnati 24-3 on the road to claim victory in the battle of Ohio. The Bengals have some serious soul-searching to do after another prime time defeat and a road trip to New Orleans looming. It’s early November and the Browns are in the thick of the playoff hunt. As I said all year long, the Steelers will win this division. However, the Browns have a real shot at a wildcard, as does the rest of the division. It will be interesting to see how Cleveland handles prosperity this late in the season. Here are my thoughts on the rest of the NFL’s biggest week 10 games.
Miami at Detroit- Who would’ve thought this would be arguably the biggest game of week 10? Miami sure did shut me up last week throttling San Diego at home…

I was reading an article on Bleacher Report about Russell Westbrook taking the necessary steps to being the best point guard in the NBA. It got me thinking, “Well if he isn’t already, who is?” Sure, I can always go with the de facto “Chris Paul” answer, but somehow, that doesn’t seem right anymore. With …
Every year I try to predict how the upcoming NFL season will play out. While it's never an exact science (injuries, unexpected play from back-ups can shift a teams fortunes), it's becoming easier to know just how a season can be played out if things remain in the status quo. Without further ado, here …
Every year, professional sports leagues induct several former players into their most exclusive fraternity. Coaches of NCAA Champions, Superbowl winning quarterbacks, recipients of multiple Cy Young awards, and scoring champions reach a plateau sought by all, but reached by very few. Only the elite of the elite make into the hall of fame in their …

With so many story lines heading into Superbowl XLVII, lost in the shuffle was 49ers QB Alex Smith. The former number 1 overall pick, who led these same 49ers to the NFC championship game last season, was just an after thought heading into Superbowl week. Heading into the second quarter, with the the Ravens leading …
On Wednesday, December 5th 2012, Kobe Bryant became just the 5th player in NBA history to score 30,000+ points. The players in front of him? Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, Karl Malone, Michael Jordan, and Wilt Chamberlain. One HELL of a list. The casual fan may ask "What all goes into scoring over 30K points?" Well longevity is …

I'll try to keep this post as unbiased as possible (not really).I'm watching ESPN's First Take with Skip Bayless and Stephen A. Smith, and the topic of Andrew Luck came about. I was surprised to see them having a topic for my rookie QB. Skip was going on about how Luck has been over-hyped, and it …
So excusing the fact that I haven't blogged since the start of the NFL season, what the hell did the Lakers just pull off? Just off face value, Phil Jackson was the right decision at coach. With the exception of Dwight Howard, the Lakers starters are all 32 years of age or older. Of course …
