Dwayne Wade is the man. He is skyrocketing up the rankings for guys you would give in answer to the question: If you were starting a franchise right now, who would be your first pick?

I keep hearing that Dallas has accused Wade of faking his recent knee injury. What? Why would he do that exactly? Did he supposedly think Dallas might decide to change thier whole gameplan on the speculation that he might not play even though he said the entire time that he was going to play? Dallas is losing it in more ways than one.

What did that exercise bike ever do to Dirk?

While Mickleson was bouncing balls of the hospitality tent at the Open yesterday, why was everyone harping so much on his shot selection and not as much on the fact that he was just generally sucking?

I love Johnny Miller and all, but I've never heard a commentator work his own records and stats into a discussion more than he does. Not cool.

The Giants are looking good. They're hitting, they're pitching, they're getting swept by the crappy Mariners. Dang it!!!!!

The refs do not lose games for a team, but Dallas has some legitimate gripes. The calls did seem very one sided. Look for a makeup performance giving the Mavs the calls in game 6 followed by one last (for this season) epic Wade carrying his team performance for the win in game 7.

Wade totally deserved the MVP!

He carried the Heat through those bad Shaq games.

10 things that will happen, not "might", "will."

With the season kicking off tonight, every where you look in the paper, on TV or on line people are making their predictions. Well, I’ve read enough, so now I need to share with you what’s really going to happen. These aren’t predictions, this just simple fact. Here are some of the things that will happen in football before Tuesday morning: 1. Deuce McAllister will post better numbers than Reggie Bush this week, but Bush will do something that will remind us all of Sanders and Vick. I see one of those 6 yard runs that takes 2 minutes where about 8 guys miss tackles. 2. The Niners will not be as bad as everyone predicts and the game against the Cardinals will be close 3. TO will have a big game and everyone will act like nothing ever happened and the Cowboys (especially the Tuna) are geniuses for signing him. In 3 weeks when he really melts down, the media will forget everything they said and act like Dallas is the stupidest franch...

Odds and Ends

I don't have time this week to do a recap of last weekend and it is almost the next weekend anyway, so I'll just toss a few things out there: 1. Are people fired up about the baseball playoffs? Are there any compelling stories? Howard with the Phils I guess, maybe. I don't know. Maybe I'm just still bitter about the Giants, but I can't get into it. 2. Speaking of the Giants, why is no one talking about the fact that in September, with his knee finally recovered, Barry is hitting balls out like he was when he was allegedly juicing. Doesn't that cast even more doubt on the whether we should care if these guys are roiding? I'm not saying it doesn't matter at all, but maybe the reasons it matters have nothing at all to do with stats or performance...at least with Bonds. 3. More great NFL matchups this weekend. I'm really looking forward to Chicago and Seattle on Sunday night. Can the Seahawks win with Hasslebeck throwing 45 times? I think we ...
August Blues August is a tough month in the world of sports. You basically have Baseball, the PGA Championship and the unfulfilled promise of football. The PGA championship is fine, but it has the downside of being golf. For me, watching golf can actually be fairly entertaining but it really requires Tiger to be in the hunt. I’m an unapologetic bandwagon Tiger fan. I don’t so much like Tiger as I enjoy his dominance. I just like watching Tiger set records and dominate the sport, so if he’s in contention golf is pretty fun, but if not…it’s just golf. So the PGA has a chance to be interesting, but you can’t really count on it. I’m a baseball fan, but mostly I’m a Giant’s fan, so like Tiger and golf, I’m mostly only interested in baseball if the Giants are good. If you follow baseball at all you know the Giants are..ummm…how should I put this….awful. That’s it, they are awful. And that would be bad enough, but to make matters worse they have this Bonds guy, maybe you’ve heard of ...
