Guess which upper echelon hoops program nabbed the best junior forward in the land over the weekend? Ho hum, it’s the Tar Heels. The rich continue to get richer. Kid’s name is James McAdoo. That sure sounds familiar. I wonder if he’s relatedto . . .
No American man has made it to the quarter [...]

The Film Babe and I are going to see the late show of “In The Loop.” But it doesn’t start for another hour and a half. So here I am killin’ time, thinking about the world of sports.
Is Rachel Alexandra the sportsperson of the year?
My Detroit Tigers are 7 games up in the AL Central. [...]

I’ve talked with several recruiting gurus about baller Fab Melo’s decision to attend Syracuse instead of the apparent front-runner for his services , U of L.
All are dumbfounded by the decision.
Two fellows confirmed that the Cardinal coaching staff thought the kid would commit to U of L as late as the evening before his announcement. [...]
Oh my, oh my, oh my, did you hear?
Like DeJuan Wagner and Allen Houston and Winfred Boynes and that kid Withey who is somewhere in the southwest now, Sebastian Telfair has turned his back on U of L. Yes, it’s twu, it’s twu.
The next coming ain’t coming!
Whatever will we do?
How can the program ever survive?
Oh, [...]
The Indy guard will just be a junior this season, meaning he won’t be able to suit up for the college of his choice until autumn of 2011. Yet, fans of several schools are anxiously awaiting his decision.
As if it would make any difference NOW.
Much of the anticipation is due to a statement last winter [...]
Louisville outwitted Eastern seaboard football powerhouse Temple for a New Jersey linebacker Cleo Robinson.
And so it goes.

The kid’s name is Luke Woodley. He’s not from Georgia, but the Dallas area. Where he’s apparently broken a bunch of records of a former UGa QB, who prepped in the area and whose name escapes me.
I’m told he’s a finalist for the Elite 11 QB camp. Whatever that is. And has been offered schollys [...]
I know, I know. it’s summer camp time for college hoops recruiting, and I appear to be the only guy attempting to write sports in this town who isn’t off at some camp observing the jump shot of Melquandel Bullwinkle, a 6-7 ******* (that’s seven stars if your calculator isn’t handy) two guard from Whatchamacallit, [...]
. . . the big parade welcoming Coach Cal to the Bluegrass, we should maybe have taken a better look around the corner in the direction they were coming from, don’t ya think?
‘Cause the way it’s lookin’, Coach Cal may indeed be Conman Cal. At best, UK fans hope he morphs into Harold Hill, you [...]
Tigers and Wildcats are restless here in the Heartland. It’s not a good thing. (Except for Lachlan’s radio ratings.) Where are those wild beast tamers when we really need them? Hiding out in Vegas?
Which means I have a few further thoughts on the Gillispie lawsuit, Memphis State investigation and John Wall criminal case. (And, no, [...]
