880

Why are people so concerned with Duke coach Krzyzewski and his 880 wins? He passed Dean Smith and with a handful of wins will pass Booby Knight. But who cares. Will those wins get the Blue Devils an ACC Championship? Will those wins get them another Final Four appearance?

Will those wins get Duke another National Championship?

We think not. So once again who cares. Titles are what people respect, not wins. Just ask Dan Marino.

%^*&%$@!

Sigh. We've been through this before:

The official March to Madness position of Article 10, Section 1(b)(i) of the 2005 NBA Collective Bargaining Agreement is that of opposition.

The rule that basically forces high school kids to play college basketball for a minimum of 1 year before joining the NBA should be changed to 3 years. There is a lot of support for this out there but then comes this jackass who apparently feels that people should believe the sun rotates around the earth again:

"With the NBA's labor agreement about to expire, the players' union reportedly is going to ask the league to drop the age restriction. Good. It's time to stop this charade and for all said parties to quit faking it. The NBA and the NCAA need to agree that if a kid is going to college, he has to do more than sleep through two courses before cashing a check."

We. Couldn't. Disagree. More. This is precisely why this rule needs to be strengthened, not eliminated. He then goes on explaining how all these one-and-done players are "fake students" and are making a mockery out of the NCAA and the NBA. Well no shit dude, this is precisely why the rule needs to be strengthened. If you strengthened the rule you would not have kids "sleeping through two courses before cashing a check". The environment right now is producing what you do not like. To eliminate it would take a step back to the wild west days of Kwame Brown, Robert Swift and Jonathan Bender. We HATE the NBA so peace be unto you if that's what you want. However if you were to see it OUR way it would be a win-win situation:

1) Committed student-athletes for the NCAA
2) More polished and mature players for the NBA

Is it really this hard to understand this needs to be done?

Waco has cupcake powers

Hey, why is Baylor ranked #10? Who have they played?

Grambling State 87-52 (W)
La Salle 74-64 (W)
Jackson State 63-49 (W)
Lipscomb 72-60 (W)
Prairie View A&M 90-45 (W)
Arizona State 68-54 (W)

With that schedule why isn't BYU ranked #2?

Too proud to foul?

I think I'm going to be sick

Hey Badgers?

Always

Closing

You had the game well in hand, then allowed the Irish to outscore you by 18 points. You don't start to foul Notre Dame until the final 30 seconds when the game was well out of reach. The announcers during the game and fans afterward were openly questioning your strategy.

Wisconsin... You win the ABC award of the week. Geez.

Stupid Photobucket

that is all

** UPDATE ** Looks like we'll shell out the money and upgrade to Photobucket Pro. Apologies for all these blank pictures (they will return 10/12). We'll pay and resume substantial posting starting mid November (b-ball!!!!).

Where the Pittsburgh Panthers just playing with E. Tennessee State? Were the Buccaneers that powerful? I bet Pitt has the fear of God in them now...

Worst airball ever?
