At some point late Thursday afternoon, live on national television, Aaron and Andrew Harrison will stare into a camera and tell the world — or at least the part of the world that cares enough to tune in — where they will play college basketball next season. They might say Kentucky. They might say Maryland. Nobody seems to know … Read More »

Listen, if the Harrisons decide on Maryland, the Terps will have achieved their greatest recruiting moment in its basketball history. Bino and Turgeon have been relentless, daring to be great, wanting to bring in the 2 kids who can possibly bring a another National Tile to Maryland. They have fought the great fight against Calipari and the … Read More »
Not since 1900 has a pitcher struck out 15 and still lost the game. Jamie Shields made one mistake last night and Chris Davis made him pay with a monstrous HR.

No Pedroia, No Ellsbury and the Genius Bobby Valentine allowed the Yankees to score 8 runs of Clay Buchholz. I guess its payback to the O’s for taking the Boston franchise down last year.
Alex Cobb was too tough last night and combine that with an uncharacteristic error from Manny and the O’s went down. But not without a fight. 5-3 2 on with Thome and Reynolds up—not bad. But it just didnt happen.
Meanwhile Oakland leads Texas 3-2 in … Read More »

Dave Telep (2:08 PM)
To answer your question I bring up Pat Connaughton. This time last year everyone said the same thing about him. He dominated poor competition in Massachusetts. So what! Connaughton can play and so can Jake Layman. It’s not the size of the pond, it’s the fight in the fish. Layman was one of the EYBL’s steals leaders and I think … Read More »
