Four NBA Championships in eight years is pretty damn good, but worthy of the title “Dynasty?” Well, with Kevin Durant part of two of them, and the Warriors having just won their 4th and second without him, I think its safe to say the Curry, Thompson and Green trio have established themselves at least in the conversation. But the Bill Russell-lead Celtics teams winning 11 titles in 13 years is [...]

Just when we thought that sports personality pay has reached astronomical levels with NBA players routinely making $40 M per year and other sports not far behind, we’ve come to a new level of greed with the world of professional golf. Yes…..golf. The PGA tour has long been the only game in town for the best players in the world. But now, the LIV tour is now trying to entice [...]

I have stated time and time again that winning the Stanley Cup championship is the hardest trophy to win in all of sports. As if the 82-game season isn’t long enough, the eventual champion could possibly play an additional twenty eight games to hoist that coveted trophy. And they are brutal, physical games with very little rest between games (unlike the NBA). So it becomes not only a test of [...]

I know this is supposed to be a column on sports. Something that brings a temporary reprive from the reality of the world we live in, which…. let’s face it…. is difficult. And the games will go on, but we need to take a moment and reflect on the unimaginable tragedy that occurred on 5-24-22 in Uvalde, TX. That is the difficult part of life that we must endure and [...]

The NBA playoffs have reached the conference semi-finals and the Western conference has gone as expected with Steph Curry and the Golden State Warriors seemingly on their way to to the finals. But the Eastern conference has been more competitive and the Miami Heat are proving to be an unstoppable force with the defending champion Bucks watching from the sidelines. Jimmy Butler has emerged as a dominant force for the [...]

Without question, Tom Brady is one of the best football players to ever play the game. I think we can all agree on that. Referred to as the GOAT (greatest of all time) by fans and media alike because of his unbeatable accomplishments on the field is high praise. No argument here. But now, even before his professional playing days have ended, he hits another jackpot by signing a deal [...]

The first Saturday in May can only mean one thing in the world of sports….The Kentucky Derby! The best horses in the world take to the track in hopes of winning racing’s most prestigious race and becoming the talk of the town like American Pharoah and most recently Justify in winning the Triple Crown. But that can’t happen unless the horse can win in Kentucky. This years field is one [...]

Today is an exciting day for NFL fans as the 2022 Draft is being held the next three days in of all places Las Vegas, NV. I say of all places because you can’t get away from the shadow of the gambling business and the relationship it has with the NFL. We knew it was coming when the league okayed the move of the LA Raiders to Las Vegas. And [...]

Coming off the heels of another legendary coach calling it a career when Coach K stepped down, Villanova coach Jay Wright has suddenly retired from coaching. A big surprise since nobody saw this coming. Coach Wright is only 60 years old and widely considered one of the best coaches in all of college basketball with the likes of Izzo, Bennett, Calapari and Few. We can only hope there isn’t more [...]

I know, I know………another column about the Masters. But it’s a better story than the NBA playoffs and the Cornhole Championships this time of year. This was a back to “normal” environment in Augusta with the course packed with fans for the first time in two years due to the pandemic. And as always, it did not disappoint. Sure, the main story before the start of the tournament was the [...]
