Way Too Early College Basketball Preview

Even the Fresh Prince would be jealous of this!

The 2011-2012 college basketball season is now fully in our rearview mirror, and while I’d love to eternally cling to the memory of Kansas players fearfully hurling the ball 40 feet in the air to avoid being blocked by Anthony Davis’ uni-brow (though he somehow ended up blocking most of those anyways), even I must carve out enough room in my heart to look forward to next year.

Sadly, Kentucky fans will never see this group together again. Fun while it lasted.

Jon and Laney put a cap on the 2011-2012 college basketball season and talk Calipari, one-and-done, and early entries.

A Worthy Target of Outrage

Ozzie may be kinda dumb, but is this really worth getting all worked up over?

If there's one thing I know about sports fans, it's that they loooooove to have themselves a good controversy to be outraged over. Whether it's a radio host accidentally swearing on the air, or an internet editor putting up an innocent, though unfortunate, headline, you can be sure the sports world is waiting on their collective high horse, ready to pounce at a moment's notice. Perhaps this tendency is mostly a creation of the media, or perhaps it speaks more to an unfortunate societal trend. I tend to think the latter is more likely, as these constant bursts of outrage seem to be more and more commonplace in any and every social forum.

Not the Death of College Basketball, Just Business as Usual

No matter what anyone says, Calipari deserves this

You might have noticed my relative silence on the blog as of late, having done absolutely no writing in over a week. Considering the events of the past week (ie. Kentucky winning the national championship), this might strike you as odd. After all, how could the world’s most insane Kentucky fan NOT flood his sports blog with recklessly written and insanely biased content during the most glorious run of his sports life? Well, there are several reasons, in fact:

1. Everything would have been recklessly written and insanely biased. More so than usual, even. And really, how many times do non-UK fans need to hear about Kentucky’s overwhelming talent, unselfishness, etc.? (Note: I could seriously read about it all day. All. Day.
