Love to Hate
Jun 24, 2008 | 7:49PM | Ubershorty
There is all this talk about Shaq's rap song that is trashing on Kobe Bryant, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, and Patrick Ewing, but does that make everyone hate Shaq? I know it doesn't and I don't think it should just because its just one of the many stupid things he does to get attention. There are many players in the NBA that have the personality's and attitudes that make people ... Read More

A Loathsome Quartet
Jun 19, 2008 | 4:35PM | ian2813
Now that the Celtics have won the NBA title I can say something I don't think I've ever been able to say before: The last championship in each of the four major sports was won by a team I hate. Sure, I've watched teams I hate win championships before, but I've always had other sports with cha... Read More

David Stern - Is He Satan, The Devil, Or Perhaps Just Beelzebub? (Spurs in Seven!)
May 21, 2008 | 12:29PM | nba is the worst
Up until the past few years, David Stern was considered among the best of the major sports' commissioners, having presided over the very successful mid to late '80's with Larry Bird's Celtics, Magic Johnson's Lakers, and last but not least, Michael Jordan's Chicago Bulls. The NBA's popularity was on the upswing, and the future for Stern was rosy, to say the least.... Read More

Apr 16, 2008 | 3:56PM | sleeplessinseattle
I don't know if amused or perplexed is the right word for what I felt when I read this article from the San Antonio newspaper with regard to Seattle Sonics owner Clay Bennett.

NBA Age Limit = Garbage
Apr 14, 2008 | 2:02PM | KKfromBK
"Please forgive them, for they know not who they draft"
Let me start by saying that the news of the NBA's wanting to raise the age limit again is absolutely ridiculous. It is an argument based on the intangible measurement of "maturity". A 18 year old is not... Read More
