About Last Night...
• NBA: Bulls 111, Grizzlies 66. You know what really sucks about this for the Grizzlies? The Bulls did it without two starters. • College Basketball: Pitt 74, Georgetown 69. Both teams shot over 59% from the field. That's gotta be rare. • NFL Playoffs: New Orleans 27, Philadelphia 24. But WHERE was ...
Eagles vs. Saints, 4th Quarter
- Yes, since you asked, that is Brian Westbrook and a horse....
Eagles vs. Saints, 3rd Quarter
- Hey, highlights of the Punt, Pass, and Kick Finals... I think the same damn kids have been winning this thing for like 12 years. Future gym teachers, all of them....
Eagles vs. Saints, 2nd Quarter
- 1st and 2nd and goal fail. One more chance here for a touchdown....
Eagles vs. Saints, 2nd Quarter
- 1st and 2nd and goal fail. One more chance here for a touchdown....
Eagles vs. Saints, 1st Quarter
- Here's the late-breaking news from the FOX pregame show: None of the Saints play trumpet. This will probably have a huge effect on the game....
Colts vs. Ravens, 4th Quarter
- 2nd and 25 now, after a holding penalty on Ogden. A short completion leaves then with 3rd and 18, and at least getting into field goal range would be huge here. Again, it's short to Mike Anderson....
To Watch Tonight...
• NFL Playoffs. Philadelphia Eagles @ New Orleans Saints. Ah, what the hell, I'll stick around. 8:00, FOX. • College Hockey. Bowling Green @ Nebraska-Omaha. Quick vote. Should we liveblog this, or the football game? 8:00, CSTV. • College Basketball. Georgetown @ Pittsburgh. At least the city of Pitt...
Colts vs. Ravens, 3rd Quarter
- We are back underway... the statistics by these two teams in the first half are remarkably similar. The different is six Colt points off two turnovers. I hope the second features one or more of those "touchdown" things....
Colts vs. Ravens, 2nd Quarter
- Stover from 41, to cut the lead in half... and he just squeezes it inside the upright. And Gumbel's right, ever since Tony Romo did what he did, I do always pay more attention to the snap and hold. And here's another commercial, which is fine, because at this rate, I'm assuming that they're not go...
Colts vs. Ravens, 1st Quarter
- I think I'm going to call CBS and just ask them to not show the game and give me 4 hours of Dan Marino and James Brown laughing about something Shannon Sharpe said. I can't get enough of that. We're still probably 15 minutes from kickoff. Get yourselves strapped in....
Nothing About This Suggests "Paradise"
If you were undecided about who to root for today... Jesus....
LeftoverDome...
• Sixteen-year-old Tadd Fujikawa made the cut that the Sony Open. [ESPN] • Man, those are some poorly chosen words. I can't believe that sort of thing happened on Philadelphia sports radio. [Out of Left Field] • Jim Lampley, as it turns out, had been arrested before. On the field. At the Gator Bowl....
This Should Help Attract Free Agents
Here's something we don't have enough of in America: sports team owners who run prostitution rings. Mikhail Prokhorov, owner of the Euroleague basketball champs CKSA Moscow, was arrested on suspicion of running a prostitution ring. Seven 20-year-old Russian women were also held for questioning. I'm ...
Today In The Premiership...
• Chelsea 4-0 Wigan. Jose Mourinho spent the week pissing and moaning about injuries and not getting any new signings during the transfer window. Wigan's boss Paul Jewell would like him to stuff it. "I'd love to have his problems because at the end of the day, whatever side he puts out, it will be b...
FavreWatch: Country Club Membership Dropped
In case you were looking for clues on whether or not Brett Favre was returning to the gridiron next year, don't let this one slip by you. Brett dropped his membership at the Oneida Golf & Country Club in Green Bay....
Ichiro's Rooting for the Bears Today
Seattle's just not good enough for him anymore. Ichiro had this to say recently to Sankei Sports, and it seems to indicate that he's none-too-thrilled with the way things are going in Seattle. Here, see for yourself:...
About Last Night...
• NBA: Supersonics 122, Jazz 114. Ray Allen had 54, the most by a Sonic since Fred Brown's magical 58-point night back in '74. • College Basketball: Creighton 62, Northern Iowa 54. It's a shame they couldn't adjust the schedule so the Ray Allen vs. Northern Iowa game could go into overtime. • NBA: L...
