Trojans Burst!

Last week I commented to a blogger that I would have dropped USC to number three after their performance against Washington. I just didn't think the Trojans were as good as people were saying they are. And I'm an SC fan. Stanford 24 USC 23. SC has no passing game. Teams know this. And the Trojans...

Patriot Games

So Eric Mangenius ratted out his old boss Bill Belichick for videotaping the Jets defensive signals and using it to decipher them. Damn, that's holding a grudge. Now, the league says that the Pats must be punished. So what should the punishment be? Threre are those who think that the Pats should... Sign in to see full entry.

Welcome to Bedrock!

I mean Baltimore, USA. In a little more than two weeks, the Baltimore Orioles have accomplished something that has never been done in the history of major league baseball. Or at least the American League. They became the first team to give up 30 runs in a game and get no hit in the same season. Is... Sign in to see full entry.

Now Hold On There

Saul Relative, I read your latest blog. Twice. And though I'm sure that you read or heard these things, I must say I haven't. And as an African-American, I must defend my people. First off, we don't all play the race card. We don't all agree with everything that Al Sharpton or Jessie Jackson says,... Sign in to see full entry.

My take on Vick

There are a lot of people piling on to Michael Vick right now. That's fine. I'm not here to defend him or bury him. He committed a crime and now he must pay for his actions. So be it. No, I have a different take on this whole thing and it's this. I hate to see any young person throw away their lives... Sign in to see full entry.

It's True

Despite calling myself Growler, I try to put a little thought into my blogs. Even if they're not always very good. This one is no different so here goes: Barry Bonds hit number 756 last night against my hometown team the Washington Nationals in an 8-6 loss(the Nats have won 7 out of 8 by the way). I...

Legalize Them!

That's right. I mean steroids. If the athletes want to use them, than let 'em. Before you get up in arms, hear me out. I work inthe medical profession, so I have a little bit to go on. Steroids are legal with a prescription. We have patients come in for treatment that take them topically and orally.... Sign in to see full entry.

714*, 60*, 511*, 56*, .367*, 4,189*

Barry Bonds is on the verge of breaking the most hallowed record in all of sports. The 755 home runs of Henry Aaron. A record that a lot of people didn't acknowledge until Bonds got close to it. The majority feels that Bonds record is tainted, because of alleged steroid use. I have always felt, and... Sign in to see full entry.

I'm Bored

Twenty-four days without a blog. Me, 24 days without a blog. Why, you may ask? Because there is nothing going on, that's why. Hasn't been for a long time and I'm tired of reaching for subjects to write about. Let's face it, the sports world is quite boring right now. The last sporting event that I...

Poor Kobe

What's that sound? You know. The one that sounds like a baby crying. Why it's none other than Kobe Bryant crying about the way the Los Angeles Lakers are treating him. Now, he wants to be traded. Can't get no help, he cries. Management has misled me. Made me take the blame for Shaq leaving. Hasn't... Sign in to see full entry.
