And now, your afternoon sports revelations.
5. Greivis Vasquez has ankle surgery – The Terp guard that was as consistent as the Baltimore rail system had surgery today, sidelining him for the summer. He is expected to resume normal activities – which include macking your girl, and poor three pointer attempts, this fall.
4. So now you [...]

Gary Williams has the blues this summer. While ACC foes are announcing signed prospects, his recruits are announcing they are leaving College Park.
And you know things are bad when this blog hasn’t posted in a couple of weeks.
Truth is, the rise of the regional mid-majors is catching up to Gary and the Terps. Local athletes [...]
Mike Jarvis certainly had his share of turmoil in his final years at St. Johns. Strip clubs, fights, and payments to players are all you need to hear about why he was ousted from his head coaching position after a string of NCAA appearances and an NIT championship.
But its been four years since Mike [...]
One of the things that separates blogging from mainstream media is the MSM’s allegiance to buzz words. You know, those terms that once they are said a couple of times on a broadcast, and printed in the newspaper a couple times, they begin to shape the national discussion on big sports stories.

If the movie “Blue Chips” wasn’t enough to convince you, then perhaps the snitching that is about to do in O.J. Mayo will. How many star athletes out of USC have to get caught up in money scandals? Better yet, how long are we going to pretend that college sports is just too big of [...]
I don’t assume for one second that Gary Williams wants to leave his post as head coach of the University of Maryland men’s basketball team. Six years removed from achieving the pinnacle of his profession, Williams finds himself out the outskirts of relevancy in the ACC, and a recruiting outcast in his own state.

In one of the more mature decisions made this side of the Verizon Center, Maryland Terrapins guard Greivis Vasquez has announced that he will return to College Park for his junior year. Tyler Hansbrough laughs heartily, and Terp fans fidget nervously.
The Telemundo version of Gilbert Arenas has provided College Park with more chest thumping, errant [...]
Like most decent players on the Texas Longhorns basketball team, DJ Augustin has elected to enter the 2008 NBA Draft. And while his tenure in Austin was about as long as his first name, he figures to join Chris Paul and Deron Williams as great young point guards.
So how much does it suck to [...]
Tip of the hat to Mr. Irrelevant for this gem, Boom Osby of Maryland Terrapin fame is endorsing a student running for Student Body President.
It’s like a Geico commercial, except you can’t hardly hear Boom’s lines. Enjoy.

Now we see what the vast majority of government officials truly want to be. Commissioners of sports leagues. If that wasn’t the case, they wouldn’t spend so much time screwing around with sports and their "appeal to the American fabric." Now they are going after the BCS, accusing college football’s Evil Empire of not being [...]
