After witnessing the classless play of the Lakers during their season-ending series against the Mavericks, I have determined two immutable things. The first is that the National Basketball Association must do something serious about the flagrant fouls committed by the Lakers during the series. It was not just the hard hits by Lamar Odom and ...

Mavericks show toughness
Being a Mavericks fan, I have always stood by my team, despite its shortcomings in the postseason. Despite what the analysts say, the Mavericks haven't choked every year in the playoffs. Getting beat by a better team is different then blowing a series you should easily win. However, the Mavericks have done both during the last 6 years, and the ... [Read More…]
Stars’ former coach Crawford should still be employed
Ninth place in the NHL Western Conference sounds bad, but it sounds a bit better when you consider the fact that your team was thirteenth the season before and a non-factor in playoff conversation. That's why the decision by Joe Nieuwendyk to fire Coach Marc Crawford seems a bit hasty. Crawford was in just his second season as head coach and had ... [Read More…]
Success is not always measured by a victory
It was a thrilling Sunday. A 21-year-old who had led the Masters for three full rounds had fallen apart. Birdies were abundant, as 10 golfers had a shot at the lead. More exciting than all of that though was one familiar face among all the rest - Eldrick "Tiger" Woods. Woods had an unbelievable front nine in the final round of the Masters totaling ...

NFL locks out fans not players
When millionaires argue with billionaires, who wins? I do not know which side wins, but I do know who loses and that is the fans. On the surface, the NFL lockout is between the players and the owners. Both sides are arguing over salaries and contracts. They quarrel over how many games will be played and how much rookies should receive as a ... [Read More…]

NBA makes a power shift to all-star teams
LeBron in Miami. Carmelo to New York. Deron Williams is headed to New Jersey. The big names are on the move, forming new alliances in new cities to create the next formidable duo or trio on the basketball court. The trade deadline ended at 3 p.m. Thursday, after this story already was sent to press and probably after another big trade was made ... [Read More…]
Football rivalry reaches ugly low
College rivalries are one of the greatest parts of sports. Rivalries escalate games to a higher level and lead to a greater level of competition. However, sometimes rivalries turn into hatred off the field and the worst in people comes out. Thursday a man was arrested in Alabama after poisoning two trees on the Auburn University campus. These were ... [Read More…]
Reason for the Season: Sports coverage hits fever pitch
It's that time of year again: Cupid is floating around on his cloud, bow in hand, waiting to shoot some poor soul with an arrow of infatuation. If you lived at Hogwarts, you might be mixing up a love concoction in Potions class to give to that special someone and make them fall madly in love with you. For me, this is the time of year when bracket ... [Read More…]
Jerry World disappoints for once
I am not one to point fingers, but Jerry Jones, I blame you. Dallas had one shot to show off to the world, and quite frankly, Arlington disappointed many. Football was not the problem on Sunday. The game was exciting and emotional, as it would come down to the final possession before the Packers emerged victorious. Many fans traveled across the ... [Read More…]
