Paxon’s job is safe — but the Bulls still should have gotten Kobe
Well, I’m a bit surprised.
If you remember, a little while ago, I commented on how lucky Laker fans were that Kobe Bryant wasn’t traded to the Bulls. And I noted how the Lakers, had that scenario taken place, would have gotten stuck wound up with Luol Deng, who has not exactly lived up to expectations.
Well, that [...]
Things in sports that annoy me: People who pretend to like soccer
You wanna know what really annoys me?
I get really annoyed when people who never watch sports suddenly get all riled up about soccer.
It doesn’t happen often. In fact, these people ordinarilly never play or watch soccer. But when the World Soccer Cup comes on, suddenly, they’re all ga-ga about it. They’ll perk up when soccer highlights [...]
Enjoy the good times, Marlins fans
I’m going to make this as painless as possible:
Don’t get your hopes up, Marlins fans.
I know, I know. Standing in first place, Florida fans — all 16,000 who attend each home game — are pretty excited. But sadly for you this isn’t football, which is to say there are more than 16 games. Which is to say [...]
Things in sports that annoy me: Baseball players who pull their pant legs down
Okay, sure. This may sound petty. But it annoys me when baseball players pull the legs of their pants all the way down to their ankles.
First of all, it reminds me of those nimrods who wear jeans when they play softball. Secondly, it just looks dumb.
Check out Vlad Guerrero here. I don’t know about you, but this [...]
Things in sports that annoy me: NASCAR highlights on ESPN
So I’m starting a new category/thread/tag — whatever you want to call it — here on WCBias. And, unless you’re a complete moron, you’ve figured it out by now: Things In Sports That Annoy Me.
Now, don’t get me wrong. I’m a big sports fan. I watch them, I enjoy them, and — unlike most sports writers [...]
Hitters Most Likely to Drill You in the Head
Sometimes, like that Walter Mitty dude, I pretend I’m someone else.
Like maybe I’m a succesful novelist, who tours the country on a book tour. Or maybe I’m a drummer in a famous band. Or a better surfer.
And, of course, I often envision myself as a baseball player. Because, you know — I’m kinda lame.
Except the [...]
Naming stadiums after greedy corporations sucks
Remember when the Denver Post refused to call Mile High Stadium by its new crappy corporate name?
That was so awesome.
“The community at large thinks of this as ‘Mile High,’ ‘new Mile High’ or ‘the new stadium,’” Post editor Glenn Guzzo said in 2001. “Outside of official circles, seldom do you hear Invesco Field, except in [...]
What is the toughest record to break in sports?
You know, it wasn’t that long ago that I thought: Nobody’s EVER gonna break Hank Aaron’s record.
And I imagine a lot of people felt the same way about Babe Ruth’s homerun record. But, as they say — records are made to be broken.
Or are they? Here are my Top Ten Records to Break in Sports:
10.) [...]
Who was the better collegiate player: Magic Johnson or Larry Bird?
Well. Big surprise in that championship game, eh?
I mean, come on. When North Carolina and Michigan State meet up, knowing that UNC previously walloped State by 35, odds are there’s not going to be too drastic a turnaround.
Needless to say, these weren’t the 1979 Spartans.
Of course, there’s been a lot of talk about that team [...]
Why are today’s baseball uniforms so lame?
Back in the 70s, baseball teams had courage. Now they’re uniforms are boring.
