A Great Tournament Capped With A Great Game
The most fun part of last night's national championship game? It wasn't one of those awful defensive wars of attrition, in which each team grinds out the shot clock before chucking an off-balance out-of-control shot. (Or, at least on the rare occasions that happened, the shot went in.) On the whole...
A College National Championship Game That Actually Crowns A Champion
We're of the idea that Memphis is going to win tonight, which is why they're probably toast. Though if they win, you can make the case that they're a historic team, which is kind of crazy to contemplate....

Storming The Floor previews today's NCAA Championship Game between the Kansas Jayhawks and the Memphis Tigers....
Will Bill Self Be The Next To Forsake Kansas?
OK, Kansas fans, we give: After Saturday's first-half shellacking of North Carolina by Kansas, we can no longer deny you the proper admiration, even if your coach did break our Illini fan heart. Bill Self, just one week ago known as the guy who couldn't get past the Elite Eight, might be the most re...
She Has Yadier's Ass and Bengie's Hips
Are you a moderately attractive female baseball fan who loves her pink jersey, but dreams of a newer, sluttier look for your drunken summer afternoons in the bleachers? If so, then you should probably send me pictures of yourself in various stages of undress take note of Joe Sports Fan's rather bod...
Red Sox Fans, Spread Among The 100,000. What Could Go Wrong?
We really wish we would have attended the Red Sox-Dodgers exhibition game at the Coliseum last weekend, if just because a fight was inevitable....
About Last Night
The NCAA Tournament is here! It's just like Christmas morning! • NBA: Allen Iverson completes perfect homecoming by nailing game-winn ... wait, what? He missed the shot? Never mind. 76ers 115, Nuggets 113. • MLB: Problem solved; the Bad News Bears Boston Red Sox are going to Japan! • NHL: If you lef...
Your Live Report From The Play-In Game
Yes, that play-in game was last night. Mount St. Mary's won, and we're sure you didn't watch it. But the guys at Flyers Fieldhouse were there, like they always are for the annual play-in game in Dayton. Here's their report from the event....
After Eight OTs, You Can Just Share The Title
The Division 1 Michigan state high school championship hockey game yesterday between Marquette and Orchard Lake St. Mary's ran a little long. About eight overtimes, 109 minutes of play long. It was probably seven overtimes too many, because they then packed it in and declared both teams co-champions...
Four Square: The Sport That Made Our Nation Great
The Four Square World Championships concluded last month in Maine, which I mention because I had no idea there was such a thing. It makes me very happy that we have a national four-square champion, even if it is this guy. Four square, you see, is more than it seems....
Welcome To Levitra Field, Home Of The Cubs
So, much grumbling today over the latest blasphemy in Chicago: Owner Sam Zell says he "wouldn't hesitate" to sell the naming rights to Wrigley Field. Of course our friend Mariotti is all in a sweaty panic over this, which kind of makes me think it might be a good idea. But then I'm not a Cubs fan. H...

Where Meaningless (But Mildly Entertaining) All-Star Games Happen
The NBA Closer is written by Matt McHale, who spent most of the weekend wearing Superman pajamas and recreating Dwight Howard's award-winning dunks on a Nerf hoop. When he's not wearing blue tights with little red undies on the outside, he can be found practicing his dunk face at Basketbawful. Enjoy...
All-Star Celeb Game Lacking Game, Celebs
If you missed the NBA All-Star Celebrity Game last night, it's probably because you have a life. Here's a quick recap:...
Another All-Star Game That's For Everyone BUT The Fans
As we mentioned in the developmental league post yesterday, we never really enjoy the NBA All-Star Game, and we're pretty sure you don't either. Not that it particularly matters; it's not for us, it's for them, the players. It's in New Orleans this year, so everyone gets to go absolutely batshit cr...
A Celebration Of All Things D-League
Yeah, yeah, so the NBA All-Star Game is this weekend. Yawn. There's not much more dull these days than the 3-point contest and the slam dunk competition, and the game itself ... no thanks. But worry not, basketball fans: There's an antidote in the very same city: It's the Development League All-Star...
