While Quint, Mark Dixon, and all of the inside lacrosse experts will probably be lining up on in the corner of Johns Hopkins in Saturday’s rematch, remember this fact –In game one Mike Poppleton won 14 of 19 face-offs from Curtis Holmes and Charlie Raffa. Yet Maryland prevailed 9-6. This rarely happens in lacrosse and I can promise there will be no such domination on Saturday. Charlie Raffa has been coming into his own and the wings of Maryland will … Read More »
Reggie Miller criticized Steve Blake no less then 10 times. Without Blake the lakers would have gone fish in already. Kobe better start thinking about guarding Westbrook because if he doesn’t this series could be a sweep.
I have to admit Doug Collins coached his butt off last nigt as Philly defeated the Celtics 82-81 to even up the series at 1. Celtics will win in 6.

Pathetic. Optimism is slowly creeping away as the Orioles gave away the game last night. Chris Davis 0-4 and 1 extremely costly error. Amazing that 16.000 braved the elements to attend the game. No lightning no postponement. Ridiculous.
Some of my many thoughts as we begin Hopkins Week #2:
Over the past decade 2 Terrapin clutch goals stand out for me. 31 was Andrew Schwartzman’s goal against Gtown to get the Terps into the Final Four. #2 was last year’s OT goal by Grant Catalino to propel the Terps to the Final Four. Now there is a 3rd –and that is Joe Cummings goal tonight. It is fitting that Joe was just named Terrapin Male Athlete of the … Read More »
The O’s lost a heartbreaker to Tampa Sunday 9-8, but remain 1st place. The Yankees come to town tonight for a brief 2 game series.
The Clippers upset Memphis on the road in game 7. Coach Vinnie Del Negro used Chris Paul and 4 bench players in the 4th quarter. Basically, Blake Griffin watch the 4th quarter from the bench. Gutsy but Blake didn’t sulk even a little bit.
Matt Kuchar won the Players Championship proving Good Guys can come … Read More »

Without much debate, Jen Adams is the greatest female lacrosse player period. While at Maryland she led the Terps to 4 consecutive NCAA Titles. Jen got her coaching stripes under the tutelage of Current Terrapin coach Cathy Reese. Even when she led her native Australia to a World Cup win over the USA in Annapolis, I found myself not being terribly upset. But Saturday all feelings are temporarily put aside. Jen has done a great job getting her Greyhound team … Read More »
By Ben Bolch of the LA Times Falling down on the job was a moment Steve Blake may never forget. In a good way. The Lakers were teetering on the brink of an extended off-season Saturday night when their backup point guard took a pass from Kobe Bryant in the corner midway through the fourth quarter. Blake spotted up and released the ball before … Read More »
This game was not nearly as close as the final score indicates. For whatever reason UMass continued to stall in the 2nd half trailing by a minimum of 3 goals. Without a stall warning this game must have a shot clock. With 6 minutes left the Rerps were up 15-7 and then UMass made a little run—far too late.Brooke Griifin and Tewaaraton finalist Katie Schartzman combined for 11 points. Next up for the Lady Terps is the Loyola Greyhounds coached … Read More »
Mike has a 4 year contract and certainly deserves more time even if the Lakers lose game 7.
