Since you brought up Tampa Bay's attendance it spurned my interest. These are telling attendance records. Before that I would like to see both the Florida baseball teams (Tampa Bay and Miami) moved out of the state to somewhere these teams would be appreciated. Miami averaged a paltry 10...

Rotten news. Beilein is that rare Power 5 HC that doesn't dive head first into the caste pool. To make matters worse it probably knocks German star Franz Wagner out of the picture since his older brother played for Beilein. Unless Michigan pulls a rabbit out of it's hat Wagner will either stay...

Sadly it still looks like Alabama will be firmly caste this season. WR Slade Bolden is behind a bunch of "NFL" talents. Like newcomer Jake Smith of Texas, Bolden is a dynamic Swiss army knife type of player and one would hope the Crimson Tide incorporate him into the offense one way or another...

For sure the media played up the Bum image and you are right I am sure he had some football savvy. But I have to tell you and I was young then I can't recall another HC since Bum who had so much trouble figuring out clock management at the end of games. He was completely flummoxed by it all. As...

Follow up to above post. The NBA combine is Thursday and Friday. High flying Max Strus must have impressed at the G League combine because he was just invited to the NBA Combine. So make that 7 white players now. Not sure anymore will be added.

A Portland-Milwaukee final would be pretty swell if you ask me. Toronto has Paul Gasol in the middle but this team plays ugly. I simply can't warm up to them. I and I am sure most here disdain Golden State including their HC Kerr who was one of the most caste announcers before he became a...

Your guess as to why the Oilers released him is as good as mine. Probably a caste move. Also worth noting their HC Bum Phillips was as dumb as a box of rocks. Bum never understood how to play off the clock at the end of games. With his crew cut, burly build and clueless look he looked like...

I am all for redemption. I can let a grudge go as long as the person is moving in a promising direction. Perhaps the one coach who has the greatest shot of rehabilitation is the Bucs HC Bruce Arians. No point in counting the chickens until they hatch given his horrid track record but he might...

If you can weather the well written but long winded piece this ESPN writer Zach Lowe thinks a lot of Zach Collins and his immense upside. See below. I have seen Lowe on morning talk shows. Doesn't seem to be a typical caste hound...

They might move the three foot line back an extra foot plus this coming season. I for one would like that. Open up the game. Bring back more movement and create more space in the middle. And it should help big men get involved more. It gets tiresome watching teams set up their offensives...

If high flying Bucks sub PC is the most exciting CF favorite player in the East then we should keep an eye out for budding Portland sub C Zach Collins in the West. Denver's Jokic is proving to be possibly the best big man in the game. Most would agree he is the most versatile big man. Kind of...

One of the great mysteries in baseball these days are the amount of injuries. I think back when the steroid era was in full bloom and Bud Selig "pretended" to act like he knew nothing. The talking points were that steroids helped players recover quicker but it always seemed to me the steroid...

I have been in a awful mood lately and one of the many reasons is this chronic unease over the baseball season. Mike Trout who is being pitched around is off to a mundane start for him. Cody Bellinger looked to be on his way to a historic season but separated his shoulder recently and has...

The media spin on the Celtics has been that both Kyrie Irving and Gordon Hayward screwed up the chemistry of a team that went to the conference final last season. The take is they inhibited the rising young black stars on the Celtics. Everyone in the media feels this way. Wrong Wrong Wrong...

The NBA combine starts next week. This is going to be a very tough draft to weather with the Zion craze leading the way. Expect a full blown horror show. The combine is full of "black athletes" and many will test off the charts. Dealing with this stuff is like swallowing arsenic. All we can...

The NFL Network could stay off the air like their Red Zone channel until the preseason kicks off. Sure a couple of weeks to go over the draft etc. make sense but at this point now a lot of dead air. Speaking of death, ESPN is essentially a football and basketball channel now. Two sports they...

For years I looked to baseball as the last refuge for white athletes. No more. The assessments above are accurate. It has been a steady two step process. The most obvious is the influx of foreign players. That steady drumbeat has grown more pronounced with each passing year. Plus in the past few...

Good points EP. I would take the news coming out of the Chiefs camp with a heaping grain of salt because we know the drill. The white player gets talked up in the springtime only to be forgotten come fall. But Cody Thompson has been the odd man out this draft. With the headliner the exciting...

Always good to go back and look at what CF had to say about players back when. I and others thought PC had what it took to become an NBA player and in this case, at least for now, things are looking up for PC. My analysis above is on target, especially the way PC has played during the second...

Is he Mac McClung part II? Caleb Grill just signed with Iowa State. Eerie similarities between the two but most welcome if I must say so myself. Love it actually. Standing at the same height as Mac, Caleb is also known for his explosive leaping abilities. And like Mac, Grill was rated just...

The PC story has some odd twists. Let go from Portland after three unremarkable years there he signed a two year deal with the Bucks but Donte D was supposed to be the emerging story. At first it seemed like PC would have to go back to baseball to pitch for the Orioles the team that drafted him...

Celtics great 6'5" swingman John Havlicek recently passed away. Here was a speedy tireless up and down the court star who was a pivotal NBA player for years. I pretty much saw Hondo towards the tail end of his career and he was past his prime. Had difficulty hitting jump shots with consistency...

I certainly didn't know squat about UDFAs signing bonus "averages" and such but the two WRs we thought should be taken that were ignored I would hope have a chance to make their 53 man roster. But from what I have read you are right there does seem to be a limit to the signing bonuses so the...

Probably too early to start mentioning some new players on the scene but that has never stopped me before. Ha. UCONN avoids in state white skilled talent like the plague so redshirt freshman WR former lacrosse star Nico Ragaini (6'0" 192) from my neck of the woods might emerge this season. They...

Great to hear McLane Mannix was (rightfully) granted a waiver. Looking over the college landscape he is probably the most important white WR for this upcoming season. If he can have a big season maybe he can declare early and get drafted but I am getting way too far ahead of myself. Sterling...
