Failed dreams and hot clubs

So UCLA guard Josh Shipp realized that the NBA blows and decided to return to school.

"I am glad I went through this process, " Shipp said in a statement Tuesday. "But at the end of the day, I wanted to come back and make another run for the championship. We've been close three times and a goal of mine is to win the NCAA championship."

Shipp and coach Howland seem to think that they have a powerful core with Collison, Alfred and the aforementioned Shipp. But we don't really think so. Kevin Love is needed to make that run into a reality. Hopefully Love will realize that pro ball is the path to the dark side. If that happens then the Bruins WILL be in the Final Four next year.

Next up, Iowa State guard Lucca Staiger has to go to jail for being up in da club!

Clive police chief Robert Cox said that Staiger tried to gain admittance to Crush, 2249 N.W. 86th Street, shortly after midnight on May 26. Staiger gained admittance with an identification that showed him to be 25 years old. He turns 20 on Saturday.

...when Staiger’s real age was determined later on, a warrant was issued (emphasis ours).

Staiger turned himself in to the Clive police station on June 6, pleaded guilty and paid a $250 fine.


What on earth would make this guy risk arrest, prosecution and fines?!




Oh, ok... Say no more.
