Lack of a Foul Call

Ok first LBJ doesn't go to the rack and dishes for an open three game 1 and he gets killed. Now he drives to the lane and everyone is complaining that he doesn't get a foul call and then people are questioning the fact that Mike Brown decided to drop the clock down and "play" for the last shot.

First off, I can't complain they didn't get a foul call and neither should anybody on the Cavs, by not calling a foul there they ended up with a wide open 6 footer which no matter how you draw up a play you can not expect to end up with a better shot than that. Secondly as, for waiting for the last shot, what's the difference. They had 3 opportunities at the shot, it's not like they waited til the last second. They had James shot, a perfect look for Hughes, and a decent tip opportunity for Floppy-Head. Stop your complaining and make shots down the stretch.

It will be apropos when both of the conference finals end in sweeps, marking just how uninteresting the NBA playoffs have been thus far.

Lou Holtz is the Homer / Annoyingly Delusional

As my buddy Joe and I always joke, if Notre Dame was suiting up against an all Jesus team, aka a team made up of 55 Sons of God, Lou Holtz would probably still pick Notre Dame to win by a touchdown. So of course this weekend when I'm watching Sportscenter and they have him and fellow old man Corso making predictions, Lou picks ND to beat Michigan. Not that big of a deal, Michigan is a big question mark this year, but of course than Lou says that Notre Dame will win 11 games this year. This is the same Notre Dame that lost to a service academy last year. And just when you thought the douchy homerism was going to end ESPN asks which BCS school is going to be the biggest surprise team in the country. Any guesses to whom it was? I'll give you a clue it was another team he coached. If you guessed South Carolina you would be a winner. Next up on Lou's prediction watch, the Jets win the Superbowl, NC St. wins the ACC, Arkansas dominates the SEC West, Minnesota wins the Big...

Guest Post: Thoughts on Sabathia Signing

I asked Grutt what his thoughts were on the Sabathia signing and I thought his response pretty much nailed it. So here it is. I don’t know. Every year I get a little more disenchanted with baseball. Yea, it’s great we signed the top pitching free agent. But we were supposed to. No team was even in the ballpark of the Yankees offer yet they still needed to jump from the already ridiculous price of $140 million to $160 million to close the deal. Now I hear we are going to sign more pitchers who will also get large contracts and the position player gaps are still glaring. Each new, large contract just adds to the feeling that the Yanks are supposed to win it all. “I think we have a good chance this year.” That is a lost feeling. If they don’t win I’ll wonder why, like there has to be some other reason besides that it’s a sport you can never predict how things will work out and some years just aren’t yours to be won. If they win I will be pleasantly smug. It gets a little more...
