Tennessee athletic director Mike Hamilton says his tolerance for athletes being involved in criminal activity “has gone to zero” after a second high-profile series of arrests in less than two months. Senior forward Tyler Smith, junior point guard Melvin Goins, junior center Brian Williams and sophomore guard Cameron Tatum are suspended indefinitely after being arrested Friday on gun and drug charges.
In November, three freshmen football players were charged with attempted armed robbery. Two of them, … Read More »

1. The Patriots won’t make it past the first round: It’s bad enough that New England lost Pro Bowl wide receiver Wes Welker to a serious knee injury in its loss to Houston on Sunday. What makes that setback even more painful is that the Patriots face Baltimore in the first round. Without Welker on the field, the Ravens can focus more attention on Randy Moss while worrying less about a rookie like Julian Edelman hurting … Read More »
Mr. Arenas’ Statement
“I appreciated the opportunity to meet with law enforcement officials today. As the person who caused this trouble in the first place, I thought it was my duty to be the first witness to come forward and meet with the prosecutors and detectives. I told my attorney I wanted to get in for an interview as soon as we could arrange it, and that was today.
I told the detectives and prosecutors the whole story about my storing … Read More »
Maryland kept Saint Joseph’s at bay with 20-point performances from Anjale Barrett and Diandra Tchatchouang. The Terrapins closed their non-conference portion of the season by defeating the Hawks 79-69 and extending their home court winning streak to 47.
Brenda commented post game–“I just thought, like I just told the team, we had tremendous poise and composure down the stretch, especially against such a great, hard-working team like St. Joe’s, and I’m proud of the fact that we had … Read More »

VIVA Vasquez!!!! Just a near perfect performance by our Senior leader–26 points –5 rebounds and 6 assists. Landon added 24 points. Some comments on the blowout win.
The Terps seemed like they were on a mission today, getting off to a big 1st half lead and never letting up.
Big performances form the bench today as Dino scored 11 with 8 rebounds and Adrian Bowie returned to aggressive ways driving and slashing to the hoop for 11 points.

No it hasn’t been perfect but the Ravens are now 3 games away from the Super Bowl. The dream is alive–that is all we can ask for. Some thoughts of today’s great win.
Flacco was certainly not sharp today. He is still holding on to the ball much too long. #5 clearly missed a wide open Todd Heap, and did not have the presence of mind to stay behind the line of scrimmage before passing the ball late in the … Read More »
I’ll put that prediction in the memory slot. The Ravens are an early 4 point underdog.
Quite a ballhandler!!!
