Calipari Can Eat Some Crow Now

Tuesday, April 8th, 2008

It’s going to be, or has become, a trend on the Blogosphere to bring up John Calipari’s defiance about the importance of free throw shooting. I was inundated at work today and I promise I’ll have plenty of college hoops goodness to fill up your stomach for post-Tournament coverage. Anyway, I’d like to point out that, back on Feb. 22, I put up this video before all of this Memphis talk really started to take off.

Here’s The Greatest Shot in the History of the Final Four

Tuesday, April 8th, 2008

So chaotic, so flawed a play, it makes Chalmers’ (who kind of fumbles the ball before he really goes up with it) shot all the more incredible.

I’m still sick over it. I can’t even imagine being a Memphis fan today.

Vitale’s Emotional HOF Reaction

Monday, April 7th, 2008

Who wouldn’t be brought to tears by Jim Nantz’s presence…

In all seriousness, Vitale does deserve to be in the HOF due to his name being synonymous—for better or for worse—with college basketball. Still, it brings up a surprising circumstance: Bob Knight campaigned to current HOF members to vote Dickie V in? That kind of taints it, right?

Bob Knight Will Now Gladly Throw Chairs For Money

Monday, April 7th, 2008

Some could say Bob Knight’s just funnier and more laid back in his old age. I don’t. No, I think he’s pretty much up for whatever money and airtime he can get, so why not completely sell out and remind everyone of what you’re really known for, Bob?

Seriously … you just threw … a chair. And not just any chair, but the type of chair that you find in any girls’ dorm room suite. (Those things are not comfortable.) This man clearly deserves your respect.

(Hat tip, per usual, Awful Announcing)

Your ‘One Shining Moment’ Appetizer

Monday, April 7th, 2008

Some like it, some hate it. Either way, indulge on the 2003 OSM that has the freshman-winning-it-all theme with ‘Melo and Co. at ‘Cuse taking the title. Can Rose do the same tonight?

I’m just begging for a jinx and a Memphis loss now.

Stephen Curry’s Stint on Conan

Sunday, April 6th, 2008

Solid video, and most of you probably missed it on Friday night. Curry cracks on the carrot-colored man around the 3:30 mark.

It’ll be interesting to see how Curry will effectively play point and still look to get 20-2 a game.

CD-R’s Rather Ill Facial

Sunday, April 6th, 2008

A pinpoint pass by Antonio Anderson leads to one of the best plays of The Tournament.

Dorsey, as usual, is a jackass, but I think we all wanted to laugh a little at Kevin Love in that moment.

Five Reasons Why Kansas Won’t Win It All

Wednesday, April 2nd, 2008

5153921_kansas_v_texas.jpg

1) Because we’ve seen this before: A loaded Kansas team with a fistful of future pros coming up short in a big spot.

2) Because they escaped bad coaching at the end of their game with Davidson and should probably be watching in jumpsuits in their dorm rooms.

3) Because Kansas has gone through No. 16 Portland State, No. 8 UNLV, No. 12 Villanova and No. 10 Davidson to get here.

4) Because first-timers to the Final Four usually need a second or third trip before they finally get theirs. Don’t worry Bill Self, you seem like you’ve got another two, three or five trips left in the bag.

5) Because Brandon Rush’s hairdo is way, way too soft.

One reason why they will: Because Roy Williams could give a shit about North Carolina right now…

Davidson-Kansas Ending Under Review

Tuesday, April 1st, 2008

I admit, I quickly brought up ESPN.com when they opened with this today.

That’s good stuff. I wonder if they did it in one take.

It kind of makes you hesitate when you see how good they are at feigning discouragement. What about all of the other issues they get so “heated? about? Still, I’ve loved the show since Day One.

(Hat tip to Awful Announcing, who had the video up so I didn’t have to find and clip one myself.)

Better Than LeBron’s Commercial

Saturday, March 29th, 2008

Kevin Love shoots these shots so effortlessy, I think he could rep 400 pounds about 20 times.

That should come in handy tonight against Xavier.
