    2018-19 NBA Season

    The announcers which include Hubie Brown had a lot of nice things to say about Pat Connaughton who had a superb 14 point 7 rebound game off the bench in their win to go up 2-1 on the Celtics. PC is a divine leaper. The Denver -Portland marathon lasted 4 overtimes but I was safely in bed shortly...

    NFL News, Rumors and Musings

    The Taysom Hill effect is showing some legs but the proof will be in the pudding. There are three areas of great concern for the future of the white player in the NFL. While CB used to be the only real taboo position it now looks like that is being carried over into the safety spot. This is...

    NFL News, Rumors and Musings

    The Cardinals just signed seldom used Ravens TE Maxx Williams to a one year deal to team up with the Great Gatsby. So one more Honky added to a team in serious transition as they try everything in their power to accommodate the Circus Act ( Murray). Williams was considered an ace prospect about...

    NFL News, Rumors and Musings

    If nothing else this Kyler Murray ala Circus Act is cut from the cloth of Barnum and Bailey. A dazzling showman with the instincts of a con artist used car salesman. His ( I admit sharp looking) three piece pinkish pin stripe suit he wore for the draft paid homage to the Great Gatsby and the...

    "Blacks are fading from baseball"

    A CF member discussed the Tim Anderson piece that was in SI which I read last night. The hypocrisy is so strong it is beyond comprehension. Much hyped rookie Vladimir Guerrero Jr. ( think Cecil Fielder in a few years ha) is from the Dom Republic but is essentially black. He doesn't count when...

    High School Basketball Prospects

    Mason Miller class of 2021 out of Memphis. Must be black. They all are out of that city. Why bother looking him up? Well Mason is a lanky 6'9" SF/PF who is actually the son of former Florida/ NBA player Mike Miller. Miller married a Florida volleyball player which is why he has better hops than...

    College Hoops News; Transfers

    Athletic Justin Pierce, a transfer, has landed at North Carolina. I like this since he will be playing at a super high profile team that is on TV all the time. One of the Duke commits bailed out which I hope help increases Alex O'Connell's chances of more solid playing time. UCONN women just...

    NFL News, Rumors and Musings

    It is official. After trying to nab Peyton Manning and failing yet again the MNF crew will bring back the same crew minus Jason Witten. Fans aren't happy. I am cautiously optimistic. Tessiture wasn't stridently caste and was passable albeit he tends to get over excited. Booger McFarland is the...

    2018-19 NBA Season

    Jokic has ballet like coordination for such a bulky type. The downside is he is ripe for stereotypes and the media zones in on it. Snickering along the way. He is not a run/jump athlete of any sort but he is smart, strong, nimble, versatile and effective. Mason Plumlee, like Jokic, is a great...

    2019 NFL Draft

    Note the picture above Andy Isabella"s bed. A certain # 19 of the Vikings. Also scroll down Andy's twitter account to April 21. He has a cute video of his little sister feeding him footballs from the jug machine. By the way he has a younger brother in high school who also plays football. Heard...

    2019 NFL Draft

    Its Miller Time. Nice TV piece on Scott with his parents. See below. Rooting like hell for this guy. https://abc7chicago.com/sports/barrington-hs-alum-drafted-by-tampa-bay-bucaneers/5275480/

    Another ESPN jerk

    From the get go a failure. For starters it was large and flimsy making it nearly impossible to read while holding it. Headache inducing hipster style was geared towards younger readers, not old fashioned types like me who remembers the glory days of Sports Illustrated. Their biggest moment...

    Certainly something to keep an eye on. Maybe the Gase/Grier answer could get fleshed out this season with Mike Gesicki being a symbol. See below how Gesicki is getting ready for an overhaul in 2019...

    2019 NFL Draft

    A brief look at the NFC North. The Bears and HC Nagy have fallen down the caste hole as has been reported here at length here at CF. The athletic Trubisky is exciting but overall this is one of the most despicable teams in the league. That all black defense along with media hero Mack lost their...

    2019 NFL Draft

    Both Scott Miller and Trace McSorley count as outer layer players who were not expected to get drafted. Longshots. TE Dax Raymond and obviously David Sills were scheduled (ha) to be safely chosen but they got shut out. And Cody Thompson had a decent shot but he was left out too. But on defense...

    2019 NFL Draft

    The strange connection between the Cardinals and the Bucs draft picks. The Bucs nabbed two players from the Midwest in Scott Miller and Anthony Nelson. In fact Scott Miller worked out for the Bears, essentially his home town but it appears the Bears are now part of the sinister caste brigade...

    "Blacks are fading from baseball"

    It is like you are at a card table and they get to cheat. Everyone else ( meaning white folk) have to play by the rules. So this diversity BS is just that. Nothing bothers me more than the baseball bitch. The 41% of players that are of color includes quite a few foreign players who are either...

    2019 NFL Draft

    The most gratifying and surprising moment of the draft for me was when WR Scott Miller was picked in the 6th round. I can't think of anyone else on the known universe ( if there is let me know) who discussed and hyped Miller more in the pre draft process than yours truly so on a personal level...

    2019 NFL Draft

    Like the Giants it was very important that Miami grab a white skill player to go along with the Rosen signing and they did with an ultra athletic edge hybrid in Andrew Van Ginkel. And like the Giants they grabbed a Wisconsin linebacker. You can't go wrong with them. Below is one of my best...

    2019 NFL Draft

    Kismet. David Sills I think will follow the path of ex Titans Drew Bennett who also went undrafted. Several years ago the Bills brought in undrafted Chris Hogan and eventually signed him which opened the door to his NFL career. And Sills looks like a Drew Bennett clone to me. Everything is...

    2019 NFL Draft

    Very nice to see Miller get some props and even ESPN mentioned his 4.28 speed and thought they uncovered a diamond. Funny. Both Tampa Bay and Arizona are two teams that are off market out of sight out of mind. No tradition like the Packers or Giants or Bills. These are traditionally low...

    2019 NFL Draft

    Now for some better stuff in a second. But we know who the enemies are which includes the Colts, Bears, Browns and probably the Jags. The Cowboys, Saints, Chiefs and the Eagles are showing signs they want to join that odious list. The Panthers draft was depressing but they made a nice off...

    2019 NFL Draft

    If someone takes the time to read all of the posts it gives a good feel as to what is going on. I only have a few added thoughts since everything was covered and good job by Red Raider for posting all the free agent signings. The three obvious sore spots. The least problematic but a major head...

    2019 NFL Draft

    Wanted to keep this list rolling. Yes it gives you an idea of how many great white players are left for today. Much more white talent left for the third day than usual. Will teams come through? The Colts and the Browns so far have been ominous. Oh and yes those weird black names continue to...

    2019 NFL Draft

    "The Wizard of Odd" Once upon a time after a horrible string of bad second round picks strong winds picked up. A tornado was coming. I couldn't find shelter and with by dog Dum Dum headed to the caste football house. The tornado lifted the house up into the air and we went spinning. All...
