My Five Minutes

Jayson Williams got off lucky. I know that it was an accident but YOU DON'T PLAY WITH GUNS! I for one hate firearms of any kind. I grew up and live near the District of Columbia, so I have seen first hand the damage that guns can do. And when someone brings a gun around me for any reason, I'm gone....

It was an interesting weekend in pro football. Just as we were all getting hyped about the draft, news comes along that former Arizona Cardinal Pat Tillman was killed in action in Afghanistan. I hate to say this, but from the moment that he joined Special Forces and was sent to the Middle East, I... Sign in to see full entry.

First we hear that Maurice Clarett has lost his battle with the NFL and is out of the draft. Then we hear that Archie Manning has told the San Diego Chargers not to draft his boy Eli. What else is going to happen between now and Sunday afternoon? As for Clarett, I'll say it once and I'll say it... Sign in to see full entry.

I only have one sports hero. And that man is Jack Roosevelt Robinson. And on April 15, 2004, Bud Selig proclaimed that from here on out, this would be Jackie Robinson Day. I commend the commissioner. This man was that important to not only baseball, but the entire country. We talk about the... Sign in to see full entry.

Yes, Kobe came back with a big game last night. But let's face it. He did a major tank job on Sunday, whether he says that he did or not. There is no defense in professional basketball that's going to stop a scorer from taking his shots. I'm a Laker fun, but if they were to get rid of Kobe, it... Sign in to see full entry.

Well Lefty finally won a major. The Big Mick(His buns have no seeds), finally got that proverbial monkey off of his back by winning the Masters. I'm not a big golf fun, but Mickelson's victory made for a great story so I watched to see if he could pull it off. Besides, I hate to see nice guys suffer... Sign in to see full entry.

He doesn't care if you are old or young. He doesn't care if you are blonde, brunette, redhead or gray. Good... Sign in to see full entry.

Well, it's the ACC and Big East battling it out for the national championship of men's college basketball tonight. What's new? It's like I said three weeks ago, the ACC or Big East has been represented in every Final Four since 1981. So it ain't no surprise that UConn and Georgia Tech are in the...

So Paul Hornung has gotten himself into a little hot water by saying that his beloved Fighting Irish of Notre Dame needs to get some black athletes in order to win. He says that they need to do this by lowering their admission standards to help better recruit them. And of course everyone is up in... Sign in to see full entry.

Sorry, I've been away gang. Life has intervened and gotten me away from the computer. Which is probably a good thing. I haven't had much of a chance to follow anything in sports except for some college ball. Got three of the Final Four right, but picked Kentucky to win it all so I'm finished. I may...
