    #MarchMadness is all about the emotion the games cause. Sometimes the lasting images are those of heartbreak.

  • NCAA FIU C-USA gets a new beach themed basketball court pic

    FIU basketball is getting a new beach themed court. #FIU getting a very cool looking beach themed basketball court.  Much more impressive than stupid #Adidas uniforms big schools got this year.

  • Random Fire for March 7th

    This season’s Kentucky Wildcats basketball team is awful.  That’s right.  Awful.  The players have talent.  Tremendous talent.  But as a team, they are God awful.  It all starts with Archie Goodwin.  I saw it early in the season.  I hate to be an “I told you so” kind of person, especially because I wanted to…

  • Big Blue Madness

    The defending national champion University of Kentucky Wildcats put on one hell of  a show for their first basketball practice of the season this weekend.  They turned the basketball court into a projector screen and wowed the crowd with the light and video show that they put on the screen.  Expect a bunch of the…

    The Louisville Cardinals and the Southern Miss Golden Eagles got to play quite an interesting game last night.  The flooded field lead to a lot of great photo opportunities like this one as the Cardinals sloshed their way to a hard fought victory:

  • Notre Dame wins on a last second FG

    Kyle Brindza nailed a 27-yard field goal with 7 seconds left in the game to give the Notre Dame Fighting Irish a 20-17 victory over their in-state rival Purdue Boilermakers today.  Notre Dame is 2-0 for the 1st time since 2008.  The B1G misses a chance for a great non-conference win early in the season.…

    “Power tends to corrupt, and absolute power corrupts absolutely. Great men are almost always bad men.” – Lord Acton in 1887. This quote stands just as true today, 125 years later, as it was when Lord Acton first said it.  You cannot get to the top in any business without cutting a few corners, figuratively…

  • Random Fire For July 9th

    The Cubs have signed their 1st round draft pick, Albert Almora, along with almost all of their draft picks, at least through the 1st 20 rounds or so.  I think it is safe to say that the arrow is finally pointing up for the Cubs after a few down years lately.  Anthony Rizzo, Starlin Castro,…

    Work has kept me fairly busy of late so I have been forced to neglect my blog.  While lots of things have happened in the world of sports since I last posted, it would be silly to write an entire blog about something from a couple of weeks ago.  Instead, we will introduce a new…
