Kevin: Can A-Rod Deliver? May 8, 2008

Poor A-Rod.  We know he can’t deliver in the clutch in October.  And now we come to learn he can’t deliver in the delivery room either. 
The Yankees third baseman tells the Yes Network, or at least his wife does, that A-Rod passed out during the birth of their first child.  Some Yankees fans would argue [...]

Kevin: Extra Points April 29, 2008

Does anyone truly understand the NFL draft?   Can you really tell me you saw all of these first round picks play—most of them even once?  Sure, you saw Michigan.  But did you watch Jake Long (the Dolphins first pick) actually block.  I know I didn’t.  I also know that they all sound like great players on draft day, but [...]

Kevin: Final Four Time April 1, 2008

My poor son Ryan.  Through bad advice from his dad and the apple not falling far from the tree, he is in last place in our “brackets.”  You know, those things some of us like to fill out at work in March.  Wink ,wink.
Ryan can finish no higher than….drum roll please…..last.  Sorry Ry guy.  Pittsburgh is [...]

Kevin: UConn is just Fine March 28, 2008

Okay, maybe that isn’t the image Jim Calhoun wishes I pulled up for this blog. And I know, it only adds to the perception that many of you have of this man: He yells, he screams, he’s too tough on his players and he lacks compassion. Now some of you have added this [...]

Don: Keep High School Hoops off ESPN March 27, 2008

I am watching the McDonald’s High School All-American game tonight, and I just can’t help but wish this wasn’t televised.  These kids aren’t playing basketball…they are playing towards the cameras.  They are all trying to make the highlights on SportsCenter tonight.  To me, this is everything that is wrong with sports.  All these kids think [...]

Don: Bracket Update March 25, 2008

I told you not to listen to me when it comes to picking brackets.  I am doing awful as always.  Already I have a team out who I had in the Championship Game (Georgetown) and I only have nine teams left in the Sweet 16.
 Oh well, at least baseball season is almost here!

Don: Final 4 Picks March 21, 2008

Like I said last year, I have never won an NCAA Tournament pool, so take these picks with a grain of salt:
My Final 4 teams are North Carolina, Georgetown, Memphis, & UCLA (which means I have UConn winning just 2 games)Then I have UCLA beating the Hoyas in the Championship Game.
Enjoy the games.

Kevin: Bracket Busters March 20, 2008

It’s March. And that can mean only one thing. Those bracket sheets. Next to operating power tools, I am not sure I am more incompetent at anything else in life than filling out those brackets.
Last night, I introduced my son Ryan to the process… for fun, of course. I do [...]

Kevin: Oh Maya! March 10, 2008

The Big East got it right. UConn’s Maya Moore is the first freshman in league history to win Big East Player of the Year honors. I won’t bore you with stats. Her 18 points a game is just a small part of why this is a no brainer. To me, this goes way beyond numbers. [...]

Kevin: Super DeMario February 29, 2008

Are you kidding me? DeMario Anderson hit a three point shot from half court tonight as Quinnipiac beat Central. The best part of the play came after it went in the hoop. Anderson led his team off the court into the locker room. Only one problem. It was his old locker [...]
