Guy with name sounding like Potato threatens Maradona

February 23rd, 2008 | Posted in Uncategorized

Just curious: Since winning the World Cup in 1986, has there been a positive story about Diego Maradona. Was only wonderin’ …
Saturday in Buenos Aires, Italian ATP player Potito Starace (yes, his name is Potito) said Maradona was jeering him from the minute he arrived on court. This is what Starace told Italy’s Radio [...]

Katz is reporting on ESPN Sampson is gone, agreeing to a #750,000 buyout. Also in there, according to Katz, is the promise not to sue IU for wrongful termination. Dan Dakich is the new coach. And it’s over.
Unless the team boycotts tomorrow’s game. Then we start again.

The end of it all. Maybe.

Alright, this will probably be my last post on this situation until late tonight, because it sounds like the soap opera is finally over.
Three separate media outlets are now reporting that there’s a press conference from Memorial Stadium at 6 PM tonight. At this press conference, it is expected that IU will announce that Kelvin [...]

Players revolt, Media unfulfilled, Sampson worm still turns

February 22nd, 2008 | Posted in Uncategorized

I’ll say this for Indiana University athletics — no one, and I mean no one, does drama better than the Cream and Crimson. Everyone always blamed the drama on Bob Knight, but that’s selling IU short. They certainly appear to have their own special type of crazy going for them.
What the hell happened today? Just [...]

The jokes continue. I’m not sure it gets any worse than being mocked by UK fans for breaking NCAA rules. That said, this is a pretty good use of photo shop. Credit this one to the creative kids over at the University of Kentucky’s fan message board Cats Pause for this one:

Fifteen years too late, David Klingler realizes God could’ve stopped the interceptions

February 21st, 2008 | Posted in Uncategorized

Seems just like yesterday. Going to Bengals games with my Dad, watching the team get smashed week in, week out, and hearing my father say :
Don’t worry son: They’re not booing, they’re saying ‘Klin-gler’”.
No worries, Pops: Your boy is back in business … wait, Dad! Stop hyper ventilating: He’s not returning to the Bengals. I [...]
