NFL Draft? 65 days. As I've been really only talking about what the Detroit Lions will do, how about what the team on the opposite end is doing for the Draft. The Steelers are heavily considering OT Eben Britten for the draft. Pittsburgh believes drafting a defensive player in the first round would be nonsense since, their defense was ranked #1 in the league.

Players all around the MLB are criticizing A-Rod for his conferences on steroid use. Rodriguez has another topic in discussion. Should he make the Hall? Rodriguez has severely damaged his reputation by not only taking performance enchancing drugs, but by having a different perspective every time.

The NBA goes on, and the Thunder organization was excited about getting Tyson Chandler. One problem, he failed a physical. Trade rescinded, and everything is back to normal. The two highest scoring teams in the league meet: Lakers vs. Warriors. Your final:129-121....Lakers. Another stellar Kobe Bryant performance in the 4th Quarter to come back and beat Golden State.

The Rangers finally win against their Long Island rivals, the Islanders. The Rangers are trying to keep a comfortable spot for the playoffs. The Florida Panthers on the other hand, are hot, and are most certainly in the picture. South Florida wants to expierience their fist successful Cup run. Alex Ovechkin makes what could be the goal of the year, after spinning around, skating past 2 forwards, and made a top-shelf wrister to place the puck in the back of the net.

College Hoops upsets, maybe not, but one of the lowest scoring games in recent history, as Penn State beats Illinois 38-33! This anticipated Big 10 matchup was simply boring, yet record-setting in recent years. The Fighting Illini are now 21-6.

  2. I heard about that, who won it? LSU has a good team. They may upset some big ones.

  3. LSU won. It was a close game down to the last 2 seconds. It really was only an upset if you were an Arkansas Razorback fan. But we did beat them at the beginning of the season. So much for a repeat ...
