I’m not sure if this is what Rick Majerus had in mind when he took over for the Billikens, but this is what he got: a team that can only muster SEVEN POINTS in one half of basketball (and only 13 in the other). According to ESPN’s segment (thanks for the embeddable video… [...]

One of the things I love about ushering in a new year are the recaps from the year that was. You know, things like the top-10 dunks of 2007, the best plays, so on and so forth. So you can imagine my joy when I ventured over to The Offside and saw their [...]

There are some NBA players that have the ability to hang-on and stay in the league a little longer than you would expect, much like Eddie Jones. In his prime, Jones was an effective swing man who averaged double digits in scoring. In fact, from 1998 until 2003, his scoring average was a healthy 18.1 points a game. Now that he’s on the down-swing of his NBA career, Jones finds himself with the Dallas Mavericks, providing Avery Johnson’s bench an experienced veteran who can help younger players transition to the NBA way of doing things.

Going for perfection is never easy, just ask the Patriots about their game against Baltimore last night. While New England is pursuing a winning season without any loses, their AFC counterparts, the Miami Dolphins are going after another type of perfection, the kind that will resonate with the franchise long after the current players have moved on: 0-16.

There were a number of nominees for this week’s Player of the Weak award, but only one stunk it up so bad their performance has fans hoping for an almost-300 pound replacement. Mr. Eli Manning, come on down. Your pathetic performance against Minnesota yesterday cemented your spot in the Intentional Foul Hall of Fame.

This past week, we had a number of nominees for this prestigious award. We had Barry Bonds and his indictment, Stephon Marbury and his brilliant handling of Isiah Thomas’ personnel decisions, and the Michigan Wolverines with their empty performance against Ohio State. However, this week’s Intentional Foul Player of the Weak award recognizes one of the biggest displays of SEC football ineptitude since the University of Kentucky lost to lowly Ohio University:

The following is the debut of one of our feature posts, Player of the Weak. This particular award goes to player who, well, performed the worst during the week that was. There are a number of criteria to consider when making this choice, but in this week’s case, it goes to a player who simply failed his team in a quite miserable fashion.
