My Five Minutes

Is George Steinbrenner justified for being mad about the scheduling of the first annual "World Baseball Classic" set to begin this week in Tokyo, Japan? I mean it is falling right at the start of spring training. Or is Steinbrenner just afraid that maybe one or two of his Yankees will get injured... Sign in to see full entry.

I've noticed that there are a lot of baseball fans on this site. So this one's for you. Have you seen the ESPNMobile commercial that debuted during the Super Bowl where the guy is walking through a city with different sporting events going on around him? He gets to a street corner where a baseball... Sign in to see full entry.

What are you going to watch this weekend? The Daytona 500, NBA All-Star game or the winter Olympics? I will probably watch the NBA All-Star game for the most part and a good part of the Daytona 500. I probably won't watch any of the Olympics. I'll throw in a DVD of the television broadcast of Super... Sign in to see full entry.

The Steelers in the AFC championship game. The Eagles in the Super Bowl. A year later, they are a full 180 degrees removed from each other.... Sign in to see full entry.

The fan whom Antonio Daniles went into the stands after is saying that he will file a law suit, unless Daniles and his wife apologize. He says that he wants them to say that they were sorry and donate an undisclosed amout of money to the charity of his choice. Daniels says he will not. So here we... Sign in to see full entry.

Antonio Daniels of the New York Knicks did the right thing Wednesday night when he went into the stands in Chicago to make sure that his wife was okay.

Kobe and Shaq, or mainly Shaq, finally buried the hatchet last night in Los Angeles as they shook hands and embraced before their game between the Lakers and the Miami Heat. On Martin Luther King Day. Good for them and it's about time. I blame Shaq more than Kobe for letting this thing linger. There... Sign in to see full entry.

The NBA is at the point now where the youth of yesterday is starting to take control of the game today. The league has gone from showcasing one star, Michael Jordan, to having stars all over the place. Kobe Bryant has taken his scoring to another level with five straight games of over 40 points and...
