Cavaliers are legit with Andrew Bynum

y The Cleveland Cavaliers have agreed to a 2 year contract with Andrew Bynum worth up to $24 million (The words “up to” are very important in this scenario. Because the second year is a team option, only $6 million of the first year is guaranteed, and the rest is incentive-laden). When I first heard…

“You don’t want Dwight Howard…really?”

Man, the propaganda machine against Dwight Howard is in full effect! The sports media would have you believe that he’s a cancer, and whichever team he goes to won’t succeed. The crazy thing is, basketball fans are starting to believe and endorse those sentiments. If you’re one of the people that subscribes to this thinking, I…

Lebron “King Houdini” James has made an appearance in the NBA Finals

“It’s been 2 years. At times I thought you were gone. Then I look up and there you were, King Houdini, leader of the Miami Heat, playing hot potato on the biggest stage.” During game 3 of the NBA Finals, we were all witnesses again to LeBron’s disappearing act. While Heat fans are trying to…

Cleveland Cavaliers, to trade or not to trade the #1 Pick

When the Cleveland Cavaliers won the NBA lottery, the first thing that came to my mind was, “Oh my gosh! Now they have to draft Nerlens Noel.” Going into this off season the Cavaliers were in a position to round out their roster, and make the playoffs. However now that they have won the lottery,…

Too Early to apologize to Justin Masterson?

Famously, or rather infamously or maybe unfamously – I don’t know what you call it when no one reads the article you wrote – I wrote an article in which I proposed the idea of putting Justin Masterson on a pontoon boat, and having it  lost at sea. He was the center of the Cleveland…

Time to question Derrick Rose’s mental toughness

At the risk of being struck down I’m going to question the mental toughness of Chicago Bulls’ star Derrick Rose. There are unwritten rules in sports: You don’t talk about a perfect while one is being pitched, you don’t hit a man below the belt without apologizing vehemently, never bet on a team from the…

Time to question Derrick Rose’s mental toughness

DerrickRose

At the risk of being struck down I’m going to question the mental toughness of Chicago Bulls’ star Derrick Rose.
There are unwritten rules in sports: You don’t talk about a perfect while one is being pitched, you don’t hit a man below the belt without apologizing vehemently, never bet on a team from the Northwest in a big game, and don’t question a player that says they are injured. The last rule has been the crutch Derrick Rose has leaned on throughout this season. However when he was cleared to return to action that crutch was removed. So it’s only right that we question why the hell he’s not playing.
Since Derrick Rose has been cleared to play, many people have been making excuses for why he hasn’t returned to game action. The main excuse is that mentaly he’s not ready. Which is a valid excuse, especially when you consider Rose’s game.… Read More

The fix! How Mike Brown got back to the Cleveland Cavaliers*

Mike Brown is back in the NBA as the head coach of the Cleveland Cavaliers! How wonderful is that? I get to see Mike Brown on the sideline again. Nothing makes me happier than seeing Mike Brown pacing the sideline, with that confused, yet puzzled-happy look on his face. It’s the exact same look you…

I’m not buying MLB 2K13…I want The Show on Xbox

I love sports video games. As a matter of fact that’s basically all I play. My favorite producer of games have been 2k sports. I have bought their products since their incarnation on Sega Dreamcast. That’s right I had a Sega Dreamcast when everyone was rocking a PlayStation.  As a matter fact I still have the…
