I am kind of busy keeping tabs on what is going on in the Motherland right now. It is important that I, as a responsible citizen, do what I can to check the vote. So what is going on right now in our realm… Vernon Macklin is at the cusp of success. (c/o Philippine Daily…
One of the most ingenious concepts with regards to college basketball has been the Big Ten – Atlantic Coast Conference Challenge, which is now on its 15th year. The ACC initially dominated the challenge, winning its first ten editions, before the B1G countered by winning the next three. Last year ended in a draw for…
Happy Monday to all. Lebron was officially named as the Most Valuable Player. We all know this was imminent and likely. What was the question is whether he will be the first unanimous one. Unfortunately, he wasn’t. He was close, though, as he snagged all but one first-place vote. The Akron native thought it was…
The NCAA Football Rules committee announced on Wednesday matters that some would say illustrates the notion that the NCAA “doesn’t get it”. We have seen the prevalence of the use of social media to build the brand of the school. See this one by Michigan at the Big House. Now according to the new guidelines,…
Here is a check on the ongoing NBA postseason. The Heat already gone fo’ in the quest for fo’ fo’ fo’. Good for them as they will need the rest, compared to their upcoming 2nd round opponents, who are fresh off a game that lasted eternity. The Knicks were denied of the same privilege by…
ESPN LA’s Arash Markazi tweeted out the photo above before Game 2 of the 1st round matchup between the Los Angeles Clippers and the Memphis Grizzlies. Yes, Clipper balloons are adorned on the statues of four institutional figures from the Los Angeles Lakers (Magic, Kareem, Jerry and Chick) just outside Staples Center. The Lakers have…
No, I have no argument with J.R. Smith winning the 6th Man of the Year. He deserves it after the season he had for the Knicks, as he averaged 18.1 pts, 5.3 rebs, 2.7 assts and 1.3 stls in 33.5 minutes in the 80 games he played (all of them off the bench). What I…
With Kobe Bryant out for the season due to Achilles surgery, he has pretty much a lot of time on his hands since. One side effect has been his increased presence on social media. He did say he was going to act like #CoachVino on the sidelines and commentweet using his iPhone, and he did…
And so today is Earth Day. A holiday crafted to remind ourselves that our planet needs to be protected and preserved for future generations. But it is also a reminder that we should celebrate this everyday. Here are some tips (c/o Rappler) to remind us of how we can help preserve the environment. 1. Practice…
It has been a harrowing stretch for Bostonians who have to deal with the circumstances of this week. When the law enforcement officials decided to announce that the entire city is going to be locked down, it was not long before the differing leagues made their announcements. It took them awhile, but the Red Sox…
The Filipino pride took another knock during the past weekend, as the Filipino Flash got outfoxed by the Cuban sensation Guillermo Rigondeaux. This after the Hawaiian punch got beat in Macau, and of course, the PacMan’s capitulation against JMM. The Motherland has an ultra-nationalist feel to it, so anytime someone gets discovered to have descent…
It annoys me to no end how the archaic NCAA administration sometimes does not get it. Here is the latest of their seems to be endless bumbles. Louisville just won the NCAA Division I Men’s College Basketball title, yet the team wanted to do something as a team the following day.
Congratulations to Louisville in sealing what has been an entertaining National Championship Game at the Georgia Dome. But we should also send our congratulatory thoughts to Michigan, Wichita State and Syracuse, as these four teams gave us a memorable weekend in college hoops. Three of these teams had tournament debutantes who dazzled basketball fans in…
Hello, friends. It’s a huge week in the state of Jaw-juh. The national championship beckons at 9 tonight, (brunch time for me in the Motherland). With Michigan and Louisville clashing in what we expect to be an entertaining and hi-scoring affair. Not sure if we’ll be getting Nantz, Kellogg and Kerr, but we had Nessler…
The Denver Nuggets continued to defy expectations. A team devoid of a true top-tier superstar being able to go out and be at par with the tough teams in the Western Conference. However, things took a interesting turn yesterday. Against the Mavericks, Danilo Gallinari suffered a knee injury in the 2nd quarter. Here is how…
