North Texas alumni checking in here ... and having just returned from watching North Texas vs Georgia between the hedges. Jimmy -- great job putting everyone on notice of Kenny Buyers! This kid is the real deal. I don't recall him leaving the field against Georgia & he was all over the place...

I wouldn't say ESPN totally ignored or blew off David Haye's worthless performance tonight. Check out this article by their boxing writer Dan Rafael. It was fair & honest -- namely he's ripping Haye for not showing up & making excuses when he lost. Good article! Haye's talk was cheap, his...

Word on Dallas radio is that the Mavericks 26th pick (Jordan Hamilton) is going to the Blazers for Rudy Fernandez & a Finnish PG that the Blazers own the rights to, so it looks like the Mavericks continue to stockpile more white players on their team. Go Mavs!

AP taking a piss in the parking lot of Mickey D's is worse. DeShaun being hammered two days after winning the NBA Championship & getting arrested for public intoxication is alright by me because a) he's allowed to have some / many cold totties after helping the Mavs win the title. I think...

guest301 -- you may be on the money with that theory. Our talk radio stations in Dallas were saying the same thing. And, they also agreed that if this was the reason, it was cool by them of Dirk not shaking the hands of Wade & James for their prior disrespect of him.

You are 100% right on that comment. The Mavericks team chemistry has been amazing all year -- and in previous years. Nobody bitches & moans. Jet needs to come off the bench to make the team better? No problem. DeShaun Stevenson needs to come off the bench to make room for JJ Barea for the...

Just got back from Game 5 at the AAC. Man, was it cool to see so many Dirk jerseys around the arena. Even a few black people were wearing #41 and when's the last time any of us has seen that happen?? LOL I'm glad I am posting this instead of saying it as I am pretty horse right now. Anyway...

You guys hit the nail on the head -- what the heck has LeBron done so far to justify all the hype?? I don't want to jinx anything but check out this interesting stat of the night for all you basketball afficianados -- 4th quarter scoring in the series so far: Dirk Nowitzki = 44 points...

I've been watching Dirk for 10+ years down here in Dallas and I am in shock-and-awe mode as well! He's obviously been a top notch player for years now but he is taken it to the next level this playoffs. The shots he made in the 4th quarter were nothing short of ridiculous!! The Mavs have been...

WOW!! That is all I can say. Dirk's performance was legendary tonight and Barea was "no slouch himself" (to steal a line from Caddyshack). What a game! Go Mavs!!

For any of you guys watching the TNT postgame show lately, have you seen the Charles Barkley lovefest with Dirk Nowitzki? He's done this several times now & I'm pretty damn shocked -- but pleased as well that Dirk is getting his props. Tonight Barkley said Dirk is one of the top 4...

I agree with pretty much the group consensus on this one. I think 49 states were rooting for Butler tonight but they just flat didn't deserve to win it. When you end up with the worst shooting % in an NCAA final, it just wasn't meant to be. But still, it was a helluva year and I'm sure they...

Tell you what, wouldn't you agree that Peyton Hillis has done more for bringing down the temple of caste football arrogance & stupidity than any other individual? Toby Gerhart was -- and IS huge. So is Danny Woodhead, Sam McGuffie, etc. But Hillis and his 1000 yard season has had many a DWF...

Don -- Just finished putting in $75 to your goal. Glad to help! When I stumbled onto this website a few years back, I didn't really know what to expect. However, like many other posters are stating, it's something you really learn a lot from! It's been very helpful in getting ideas to show...

In fairness to Jim Nantz, who's actually a good commentator IMO, the idiot that mentioned that the Pats are "like an Ivy League team" was Boomer Esiason. That's who to direct the ire to. :)
