Why Chicks Should Be Banned From All-Star Voting
Perhaps I've been drinking too much of the Colin Cowherd Kool-aid, but I've realized female sports fans are messing with the natural order of things -- and that is turning me into a chauvinistic, repressive fool. As I recall, Colin has spoken about the upsides -- a requirement even -- of having a relationship with a girl who doesn't love sports. [read more...]

High gas prices can’t shut down Pistons on the road
A possible looming recession doesn't appear to be affecting the Detroit Pistons' attendance -- leading the NBA at the turnstiles for the fifth time in six seasons -- and the motor city's bad boys didn't run out of fuel during a back-and-forth playoff series where the Sixers surprisingly put a little gunk in their carburetors before the Philly economy car [read more...]

Around the Horn
We know you thought this would happen. So pardon us for feigning, no, actually displaying pure shock. Still, while watching the Bulls land in the 4th spot in the East, we are still palpably surprised. Whether the glass is half full: the Bulls are a strapping, resourceful young team, or half empty: the East is more shallow and empty than Nick [read more...]
Hart Surgery: Seventh Heaven
Well, I suppose I should have kept my mouth shut about these NBA playoffs. A week after declaring this year's version the worst I'd ever seen, we saw two of the best games in playoff history. First the Lakers amazing win over the Spurs in Game 5 out West. I know I talked about it last week, but I cannot stress enough how big [read more...]
