Leap Day!

Not a whole lot going on today...just some bullets...

  • NBA Recap: Spurs win a tight one @ home over Dallas.....Still the champs...really all there is to it other than Dallas showed some fight, but I still don't think Kidd gets them any closer to a title.......Lakers win their 10th straight in yawn-like fashion over hapless Miami.....NBA needs to amend the schedule making for TV to allow some switches late in the year (a la the NFL) to avoid Chicago and Miami being on TV all year
  • NFL Free agency mania.....Nothing huge to report yet....good to see the Browns went semi-proven over totally unproven in signing Derek Anderson long-term.....I'll take Brady Quinn off your hands!
  • Some very entertaining CBB games last night.....Louisville is very good....just waiting for the debilitating David Padgett injury though, it seems to always come.....UCLA utterly lays the wood at Ariz. State by 21....best team in the country still IMO...and Wazzu looks very impressive (by the exact same score as UCLA btw) in dismantling Ryan Anderson and Cal on the road
  • Last but not least.....Bill Simmons posted a 15,000 word article about the impending Seattle Sonics move and the fans outrage.....More attention needs to be paid here as this is a storied franchise in a reasonably good basketball town and they shouldn't be allowed (paging David Stern) to kill basketball in Seattle b/c an owner wants to take a team back to his hometown.....and don't believe the "I need a new arena" pitch....if every owned said, "I need a new arena, and if i don't get it, I'm Out" then there would be utter chaos......More later
