Saturday Morning Ocho

Written by David | May 30, 2009 | Comments Off | NFL, Stripe Hype (Bengals)

Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Chad Ochocinco still isn’t talking to the media (a smart decision, in my view), but Coach C gives an update to the team’s official site. The Ocho is “in his best shape since 2005,” reports Charles Collins, and looks to continue working out in California for the next two weeks, before [...]

Game 6 Notes

Written by Brian | May 30, 2009 | Comments Off | Nugg Love (Nuggets)

After a season of overachieving and proving doubters wrong, in the end the Nuggets folded like a cheap suit causing some Nuggets fans to start the chant “We  Want  A Refund”.  From the opening tip, you could tell this was going to be a hard game to watch, with Chauncey picking up a phantom foul [...]

Written by kenwatkins | May 30, 2009 | Comments Off | Reviewing the Brew (Brewers)

Written by kareemabduladam | May 30, 2009 | Comments Off | Lake Show Life (Lakers)

What part of “crown our ass” didn’t some of you understand? This Los Angeles Lakers team found themselves during Wednesday’s Game Five win. Everybody couldn’t see it yet, though. After the Lake Show’s Game Six trouncing of the Nuggets? Yeah, everybody sees it now. Magic Johnson echoed what I said 48 hours ago in his [...]

Written by hopper | May 29, 2009 | Comments Off | NASCAR

Last week, I gave a shout-out to Jimmie Johnson’s team for running their annual patriotic paint scheme at Lowe’s Motor Speedway. Having done that, it would be ludicrous of me not to point out the 31 teams sporting the “Autism Speaks” puzzle piece logo on their cars and trucks this weekend at Dover.
Autism is a [...]
