Be A Man, McMackin, Everyone's Living On Less These Days

Hawaii Coach Apologizes For Accusing Notre Dame Of Gayness During Dance Routine
Before last year's Hawaii Bowl, Notre Dame and Hawaii met for a pre-game banquet in which the Rainbows-turned-Warriors did the ha'a and the Fighting Irish performed a cheer, which Hawaii head coach Greg McMackin tastefully deemed "a little faggot dance."...

Everyone Loves Golden State Until They Get Drafted By Them
There's a pretty amusing article about Golden State's pre-draft scouting camp where dozens of NBA hopefuls came to the Bay Area to show off for scouts and—more challengingly—pretend that they would actually enjoy playing for the Warriors....
Suspiciously Optimistic Guy In Warriors Forum Turns Out To Be Warriors Flack
So that anonymous optimist who's been dropping sunshine all over the Warriorsworld forums? Goes by "Flunkster Dude"? Posts things like, "Nice job Mully!"? Why, he's none other than Warriors PR director, Raymond Ridder....
Keith Smart On Bobby Knight, The Shot, And Hell In The Pacific
Nearly 22 years after his 16-foot baseline jumper gave Indiana the national title in 1987, Keith Smart ruminates on how how that moment changed his life, and where he's going from here....
Stephen Jackson Is The Last Dragon
If the Warriors' Stephen Jackson is Bruce Leroy, the mystical martial artist who possesses "the glow," then who is the evil Sho'nuff, the Shogun of Harlem?...
JoPierre Davis May Be Absent From Facebook For Awhile
Since September, Hawaii cornerback JoPierre Davis has racked up one count of burglary, one count of sexual assault, and potentially two more counts of assault and possession. [Every Day Should Be Saturday]...

NBA training camps have begun; the season is rapidly approaching. Can you dig it? I knew that you could. And so we continue our previews: 30 of them in 30 days. Up next is a team that is so totally screwed: The Golden State Warriors. When last we saw them: Finished 48-38, third in the Pacific Divisi...
On The Beach With Baron Davis And Mrs. Fantastic
So, is Baron Davis' Jenny Craig diet working? You be the judge. Perhaps Jessica Alba can dispense weight-loss tips (she had a baby in June). Here they are cavorting last week in Cabo — Jessica's in the towel — as Davis prepares for the NBA preseason which begins Oct. 5 against the Hornets. This phot...
Two Sports Medicine Experts Agree: Monta Is Totally Lying
"I'm going to improve every part of my game. That's what I do. That's why I play basketball...to improve and to become the best player [who] ever touched a basketball." Monta Ellis said that just over a month ago, right after he received a six-year, $66 million contract extension from the Golden Sta...
Warriors To Be Decidedly Less Whiskery In 2009
OK, it's not a lock that Baron Davis is leaving the Warriors. But by opting out of the final year of his contract — leaving $17.8 million on the table in the process — it's pretty clear that there was more to that dustup with Don Nelson in the Phoenix game than we were told. But while that may be tr...
Epic Fail In Oakland (And Dirk Is A Space Monster!)
The NBA Closer is written by Matt McHale, who would do anything for love, but he won't do that. No, he won't do that. When he's not memorizing Meat Loaf lyrics, you can find him karaokeing them at Basketbawful. Enjoy! Hey Warriors...what's that on your face? I'll tell you. It's egg. And mud. And th...
Do LA Teams Have The Refs Hypnotized?
Another look at the last play of that UCLA-Texas A&M game that you may not have seen. I know that the rule of thumb among college basketball officials is that if a shooter is hit with two or fewer arrows during the last 30 seconds of play, then you should "let the players decide the game." Now, if ...

It's The End Times, People!
Not sure exactly what's going on, but just to be sure that God isn't up to some sort of Armageddon-like shenanigans, if you need me I'll be in a sealed grotto at the zoo. The Warriors — whom I believe began the season 0-6 — trounced the Suns on Monday, but that's not the big news. The Knicks have no...
