UCLA Refusing To Be Whooped
The Bruins have taken a 28-21 lead with them into halftime after sweating Memphis into their worst shooting performance of the year. They're 0-for-10 from behind the line, and 10-of-37 overall. Most tricks are not impressed by 21-point halves....
Indianapolis Buffet Restaurants, Prepare For The Arrival Of Glen Davis
"We still not satisfied yet. We got TAPEWORMS in our belly. We wanna still eat." - LSU forward Glen Davis, with some interesting imagery...

• Women's College Basketball: (3) Baylor @ (2) Maryland. It's the Lady Bears against the Terrapins, and I don't think that's fair. Maryland should have to use female turtles, too....
Doing The Right Thing. Eventually.
A quick update on the Colin Cowherd situation: Gelf Magazine is reporting that ESPN Radio' Colin Cowherd plans to give credit to the M Zone for jacking their material on his radio show last week. ESPN spokesman Josh Krulewitz told the magazine that the credit will be given on Monday's show....

Memphis Looks To Whoop That Trick
This kinda makes me wish I was a Memphis fan. The good people at The Realests noticed the Memphis dance team doing the "Whoop that Trick" dance from the movie Hustle and Flow, which takes place in Memphis. And then they dug up this video of Memphis fans taunting some UAB fans with the same song an...
The Top Hoops Programs Of All Time
Here's a little something to argue about before we get started with the actual basketball today. TenMojo.com has attempted to rank the Top 10 college basketball programs of all time. And it's not some half-ass list based on foggy notions, which is how I'd prefer to do it. They actually have reason...
Because Of Winn-Dixie
A tipster writes in to tell us about New Orleans Saints defensive end Jimmy Verdon's weekend. Evidently, he got hammered and ended up passed out on a bench in front of a Winn-Dixie and then brawled with the cops who tried to wake him up. Police spokesman Capt. James Gallagher explains....
Poor UConn Just Can't Catch A Break
UConn head coach Jim Calhoun certainly was at his whiny best last night, which is odd, considering that Washington was hit with 33 fouls, while UConn had just 20. I'd go so far as to say that he was behaving like Jim Boeheim... if Jim Boeheim was a 10-year-old Girl Scout who couldn't sell any of h...
George Mason Has Your Shocker Right Here
No matter who won that Shockers/Patriots tilt last night, I suppose I would've been spending some time today giving it up for the little guy. As it turns out, it's the 11th-seeded George Mason Patriots, who didn't just get to the Elite 8, but destroyed Wichita State last night, never trailing alon...
About Last Night...
• College Basketball: Boston College 59, Villanova 60. Randy Foye had 29 of 'Nova's 60 points. Not what you'd call balanced, but nonetheless effective....

Kobe Bryant: Future Member Of The Tribe?
A while back, we mistakenly referred to then-Chicago White Sox third baseman Geoff Blum as Jewish. Within seconds, we received dozens of emails saying that wasn't true. Point is, as Jews In Sports can attest: People take this stuff seriously....

Reggie Jackson And Those Vultures
We have to say, if this site — or the Internet, for that matter — had existed during Reggie Jackson's heyday as a player, we think maybe 30 percent of the posts would have been about him. As a Hall of Fame player, he was fascinating, but now that he's retired, he's becoming one of our favorite cra...
We Know. And Such Small Portions.
Hey, sponsors: Don't you see the rest of the country looks upon New York like we're left-wing, communist, Jewish, homosexual pornographers? We think of us that way sometimes and we live here....
