NCAA Saves the Day
December 12, 2006 by
We normally hear of how the NCAA and the rules they have in place basically screw players for minor violations. Please don’t get me wrong because they overall do a great job, but we all know there have been times we didn’t agree with their decisions or thought they had no heart. Well, this story will really warm your heart and definitely shows a very positive side to the NCAA. In a nutshell, Jermareo Davidson who is a talented 6-10 forward for Alabama has endured his brother being placed on a ventilator and his girlfriend being killed in a car accident all this semester. To make things worse Jermareo was in the car with his girlfriend when the accident occurred. Needless to say because of these tragedies his studies were falling very far behind. It appeared he was going to also have to endure missing the second half of his senior season due to poor grades. Then a director of academic services for Alabama University made coach Gottried aware of a NCAA and SEC rule that allows players to withdraw from classes and wipe the slate clean for next semester. It’s not often you hear the NCAA sparing someone from rules and regulations, but this time the rules made things just a bit better for Jamareo Davidson who is handling so much at such a young age. I tip my hat to you today NCAA.

NBA Moving Back to Normal Balls
December 11, 2006 by
Since training camp opened this year for the NBA players have been complaining about the new microfiber composite basketball that David Stern demanded be the new basketball for the league. Well, after so many complaints and even proof the ball was causing injuries on stars such as Steve Nash and Jason Kidd the NBA has changed their mind. On January 1, 2007 the NBA will return to the old leather model. This situation stunk from jump and I’m really surprised Stern waited this long, but I’m sure he needed to look and act like he was in charge as long as possible. Will this help the NBA game overall though? I think this is the point they should be more focused on, but what the heck do I know!

SportsUnderground.com’s Dumb A$$ of the Week Award
December 11, 2006 by
It was a real close race this week for our prestigious award. Delta O’Neal almost pulled it out by being the eighth Cincinnati Bengal to be arrested this year. It never ceases to amaze me that these millionaires can’t pay someone to drive their sorry A$$ around. The winner this week is Stephen Jackson of the Indiana Pacers. Jackson could be one of the scummiest people to ever play professional sports and we all know that is saying a LOT. “Thug for life” was most recently kicked off his bench by Rick Carlisle after a profanity laced argument started because Jackson was removed from the game. I really want Stephen Jackson to just go away for good due to his constant conduct that is nothing but detrimental to his team and the entire league.

Fans in Tuscaloosa have to wonder what has happened to their beloved football program. Alabama reportedly has already been turned down by Steve Spurrier and Nick Saban for the open head coach slot after the recent firing of Mike Shula. Yesterday came the news that Rich Rodriguez of West Virginia also has turned down the Tide. This news was extremely shocking because everyone including Alabama athletic director Mal Moore felt it was a done deal. Rodriguez has guided the Mountaineers to three straight Big East titles and four straight New Year’s day bowl games. My gut tells me Rodriguez went through this process to get a raise in West Virginia and solidify him as the coach there for many years to come. The question is what is Alabama going to do next? Where do they turn and how do they right this ship? The names being tossed around are Paul Johnson (Navy), Jim Grobe (Wake Forest), and Jeff Tedford (California). I think they should just bring back Mike Shula since they are paying him a ridiculouos amount of money til the end of the time anyway, but that would just be silly or would it? Stay tuned for more because I think the shenanigans are far from over.
Bonds is a Beeotch!!!
December 6, 2006 by
Let me try and get this straight for all my peeps and more importantly myself. This jabroni has walked and talked like his shihite didn’t stink since he was part of the Killer Bees squad back in the days with the Pittsburgh Pirates. (reminder – he was a whopping 124 wet and wearing boots in the Steel City) He has been a menace to the media and basically a royal A-hole for his entire career, but even more so in recent years due to the recent steroids phenomenon. Bonds has been trying to defend his home run title and stature even though he has resembled Mr. Potato Head for many years.
Things seemed to have changed recently with Bond’s character because it appears not many teams want him on their squad this year. He is now personally down in Florida at the MLB winter meetings trying to pimp himself because transvestites with herpes are more wanted than his sorry A$$. It sure seems the Giants are the only team that will ultimately bring this cancer on as a player. The reason they will torture themselves is because it’s the only way the Giants can fill their stadium in ’07. San Francisco is going to blow chunks so why not re-sign him so your fans can possibly watch Bonds break Hank Aaron’s home run record. I have only begun my Bonds tirades because I DO NOT want to watch him break the record. Stay tuned because this doesn’t even scratch the surface of my venom.
