ESPN is still mainly a deadly force out there. From Mike Greenberg and his noxious "Get Up" program to the now stale Golic ( and his ever present son) and Wingo Show, mornings are a tough caste laden sled. Big mouth Stephen Smith has made several egregious errors in recent months like saying...

With the Hogan signing that wraps it up for FA white WRs. In review Jordy retired. I give that an F grade since he has at least one but probably two good years left. Packers would have been a perfect ending but the NFL doesn't trade in feel good stuff. Especially when white skill athletes are...

Overall I am pleased Chris Hogan signed with somebody. It was getting spooky. I do not like the one year. But it beats no man's land. Now Cam was horrific in the latter stages of last season. Will his "shoulder" issue be cleared up by this coming season? For me at least I like that he landed...

Tonight at 10:00 EST on ESPN2 is the Nike Hoop Summit as the USA faces off against the World team. In recent years the World team has been made up of less and less European talent and filled up with black, Asian or mixed stars from other parts of the world. This year they went for the jugular...

It got to a point a couple of years ago where I couldn't watch the NBA so it is a good sign that I have watched it more this season than the previous three or four. But we still don't know which way the wind will blow for players like Grayson Allen or TJ Leaf or Mario Hezonja or Alex Caruso or...

For a brief shining moment the dunk city gang of PG Comer and dunker supreme Fieler were the talk of the town circa sweet sixteen 2013. I especially liked the way Fieler dunked. Then poof it all went away so quickly even though they returned the following season. Sam Okey. Odd. I remember the...

WR Walker Merill has an offer from Tennessee. Tee Martin is the recruiter in charge. OK. What are the damn odds Tennessee follows through on what looks like a bluff on the surface? Merill looks like another Zach Rogers type, the underused WR that came on late in his senior year at Tennessee...

I think I saw a reflection of the grim reaper. He always makes an appearance this time of year destroying my hopes and dreams even when my confidence level is running higher than usual. By God these 7 round mock drafts has the grim reaper's fingerprints all over them. I am a fool but at least...

Cute Katie Lou was chosen 4th by Chicago in the WNBA draft last night. Even changed her hair color for the occasion. Nice to see femininity hasn't completely died out.

First off Icsept caught me off balance with Steve Henson from Kansas State. Why he seems back of the mind vague to me is disappointing but I remember his face and name. Just can't recall his K State playing days. Keith Van Horn was one of my all time favorite college basketball players and I...

I suspect it was a matter of timing. He is a junior and declared late and Lindy's was published before the NFL combine. I am nearly certain Crosby will be drafted. All sources point in that direction although where is a bit of a mystery. Probably at the top of my list for players with...

The best players make a difference. The greatest example of that is Larry Bird who single handedly turned a rotting Celtics team into an overnight contender in his rookie season. But below if you glance at the Mavs record through the Dirk years you can see his winning imprint. There was some...

Last night was Dirk's final home game so they had a nice ceremony. Former stars Scottie Pippen, Shawn Kemp, Detlef Schrempf, Charles Barkley and even Larry Bird showed up on the court with him. Very respectful kiss off (Dallas plays final game on road tonight) for a player that had a long...

I only remember Brian Winters with the Bucks ( he had a beard which was rare those days) and Wally Walker with Seattle. Both were complimentary NBA players. I do remember and liking Jeff Lamp on those Ralph Sampson teams. He was a star forward at Virginia. I think I was rooting for Virginia...

Can't help myself with these athletic white players from the past. I remember when UCLA beat Missouri (had to look up the year) in the 1995 tournament as PG Tyus Edney drove the length of the court to win and man was I pissed. Missouri had a PG at that time Jason Sutherland who was known for...

A little off the Playoff subject but by luck I bumped into the NHL draft lottery last night on the NHL network. Chicago, New York and New Jersey were the last three left for the jack pot and New Jersey won the number one prize. The NHL is loaded with great young talent and next season New...

First off because of the way Jerome plays and looks this news isn't as damaging as it would be under normal situations. I am very strict on the subject and if Guy wasn't a star on this team it would be a different story but as it stands it isn't an earthquake revelation. If you are referring...

I had the CJ Worton situation half ass backwards. I didn't realize he declared for this draft. Wasn't playing close enough attention. I thought he was just running and doing the drills preparing for the 2020 draft thinking he would suit up for FIU this season. Like mentioned above he had a year...

A constant battle. Next year's wide receiver draft looks like a possible shut out. Grim city here we come. Unless? I am sure many remember WR JJ Worton of Central Florida. He really came on and there was some NFL chatter but if memory serves he got banged up some and never made it. Last year...

Looks like Michigan star freshman Iggy has declared for the draft. He is not projected to be selected in the first round so I don't understand this move at all. He is a little old for a freshman but still another loss for college basketball. Michigan does have an exciting very athletic freshman...

From my perspective a terrible hire. His Bearcat teams play gritty defense but their offensive sets or lack there of is ugly street ball and he is bringing this junk to UCLA? Home of John Wooden and the smooth as butter easy on the eyes style of play? Given his caste drenched history I would be...

Beyond the vague optimism of the piece this is still an inaccurate hit job. Lazy caste riddled report. First of all Cantrell has 4.52 speed. He ran a 4.47 on his pro day. Obviously like so many other white players at the combine, Cantrell was not accustomed to running the 40 yard dash and with...

For the sake of accuracy I bring you this news. Although I still would have been rooting for Virginia. Ty Jerome's papa is biracial. I thought something was amiss when ESPN's Undefeated wrote up a recent story on him. That whole thing slipped by the goalie here at CF. But again I won't let it...
