So Far, The Best Horizon League Team Plays On.

Friday, March 16th, 2007

Wright State was more illusion than substance this year. YSU fans were exhilerated when the Guins upset the Raiders. After all, Wright State had beaten Butler twice. But….
The Dance is a different time, when the cream rises to the top. A few weeks later, and everyone knows that Butler IS the best in the Horizon […]

Accountability. We Were Taught It. But Where Is It?

Monday, March 12th, 2007

Akron coach Keith Dambrot railed against the referees. He railed against the NCAA selection committee. He railed against the NIT selection committee. But in the aftermath of his team’s 53-52 loss to Miami University, I did not hear him state plainly for the record how he was outcoached in the school’s biggest game of the […]

I Love March Madness. For Once I Get To See the “Other” Schools

Friday, March 9th, 2007

How many times can I hear Dick Vitale scream about the Cameron Crazies, the Terps, Gary Williams, Tar Heels, Bruins or Big East and Big Ten? So Thad Matta had a great recruiting year? Bully for him. Nobody’s asking how he got these guys when Jim O’Brien couldn’t. Duke? ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ.
Give me Austin Peay, Mount St […]

When Does A City Get A Frikkin’ Break?

Friday, February 23rd, 2007

People in Youngstown know about tough times. That’s why sports are so big in the Valley. Pick your team, cheer for a few hours, and put the daily grind behind you. You turn to sports to get away from the crime, shootings and bad news that dominates the local news. Then you discover the guys […]

A Cow is Tired Of the NBA All Star Game. Make it Stop.

Monday, February 19th, 2007

In cultural vernacular, the NBA All Star game has jumped the shark. I remember when the best players hit the floor, gave the fans a show, and the season went on. Mr Moohead knew he was in for a long night when:
