The Mavs took Samaki Walker ninth overall in 1996, between Kerry Kittles and Erick Dampier, four picks before Kobe Bryant, and six before Steve Nash. Walker hasn't seen any NBA game action since December 2005, so you don't need Jay Bilas to point out that he's a bust. He's played in Russia, Syria, China, and South Korea since washing out of the NBA. More »

Was it a bad idea for Olympic silver medalist and UFC and Strikeforce veteran Matt Lindland let a dude named Gonzalo Aldana Gamboa grow weed on his Oregon property under the Oregon Medical Marijuana Program? Yeah. Probably not as bad an idea as running for local office as a Republican moralist nicknamed "The Law." And definitely not as bad an idea as fighting Robbie Lawler: More »

Yesterday's news about former Jayhawk heroes Mario Chalmers and Darrell Arthur allegedly getting caught with "marijuana and women" at NBA rookie transition program has put their current teams in a bind (Chalmers was supposed to compete for the Heat's starting point guard job) and their former head coach, Bill Self, in protective mode. ESPN reported yesterday that the players were nabbed by hotel security at the Doral Arrowwood resort in Rye Brook, N.Y., where 69 of the league's rookies arrived last night for the four-day seminar in which coaches, referees and former players speak about "adapting to the league". (One of the seminars: "Personal Development and Education" which covers, among other things, "Drugs and Alcohol" and "Sexual Health". Guess they were planning on skipping that one.) More »

This story is still filtering out, but it appears that the Penn State discipline dance continues. Last night a warrant was obtained to search the apartment shared by four Penn State football players: AJ Wallace, Andrew Quarless, Maurice Evans and Abe Koroma. Police responded to a complaint at 8, knocked on the door, and noticed the smell of marijuana. At that point the officers were denied entry. So the officers got a warrant and returned at 10:59. Upon the return police found the noxious weed. More »

According to a clandestine "NFL source" former Denver Broncos' running back Travis Henry has once again tested positive for marijuana. Henry, if found guilty, will undoubtedly be suspended for a year after this latest infraction. Last year, he appealed a positive test and won, allowing him to be a virtual non-factor on the Broncos for the rest of the season. The good newsis that the bong Henry was smoking out of this time around did not get pregnant. More »
