A Crisis in Youth Sports?

Many child and sports psychologists claim that we are facing a crisis in youth athletics. It’s hard to disagree when you read stories of coaches fighting at youth game; a parent being accused of beating another parent to death after a hockey practice; an over involved parent who makes his child run home behind the car because he didn’t perform well in a game.

Dallas Cowboys’ 2012 NFL Draft Trade a High-Risk/High-Reward Gamble

The Dallas Cowboys made a huge splash on Day 1 of the 2012 NFL Draft by trading up from the No. 14 to the No. 6 overall pick to take LSU cornerback Morris Claiborne. Considering the Cowboys landed former Kansas City Chiefs cornerback Brandon Carr in free agency last month, Dallas has just shored up [...]

Terrell Owens: Tony Romo ‘had a hand’ in me not being in Dallas anymore

Terrell Owens: Tony Romo ‘had a hand’ in me not being in Dallas anymore

We hadn’t heard much from Terrell Owens lately which is a good thing. Not only for us, but also for his sake. Owens is still holding out hoping that he can make a return to the NFL and no longer have to play football in fear of getting knocked over a wall.

NBA Rankings: Week 18

NBA Rankings: Week 18

A big back to back, home and home setup between Houston and Denver this week as they jockey for the 7 and 8 seeds in the West. The Magic may have finally met an issue they can’t overcome in Dwight Howard’s bulging disc in his back. The Spurs are going to be dangerous as Poppovich once again rested some of the older starters even during a win streak. And someone better wake 76′ers as[...]

Ryan Leaf just can’t stay out of jail

Ryan Leaf just can’t stay out of jail

We ignored the fact that Ryan Leaf was arrested late last week on burglary, theft, and drug charges. Mainly because it shouldn’t come as a surprised to anyone that Ryan Leaf was arrested on burglary, theft, and drug charges. But when Ryan Leaf gets arrested again a mere two days after being released on burglary, [...]
