Bad Newz For Vick

I’ve been following the Michael Vick fiasco and it makes me sick to my stomach….and it has nothing to do with how he treated poochie.
I’ve discussed his situation with different people in the context of talking sports. Most people disagree with my views on the matter but the more I think about it the […]

101 Things Every Fan Must Experience Before They Die

Back in my formulative college days I questioned just about everything about my life that there was to question…except sports. I have an innate love/passion for sports and that’s just the way it is. If my future wife doesn’t get this she probably won’t be my future wife. College basketball makes me happy, […]

An Ode To King James

Written and sent out by my boy Brett today who lays it down better than i can. Here’s hoping Lebron continues his journey and allows us all to witness it.
I don’t know about you guys but I am pumped for Bron Bron in the finals.
I clearly remember sitting in the United Center […]

One Shining Moment

By now you probably have had enough of my college basketball posts so this will be the last one for awhile. Part of the magic of the NCAA tournament, and arguably my favorite three minutes each year, is when CBS plays a video montage of highlights from the NCAA basketball tournaments set to the […]

No-More-Hyphen-Names

I read recently that running back Dominick Williams was cut by the Houston Texans. You probably know Williams as Dominick Davis, his name before he was injured. He must have rehabbed really really well because he repaired his name in the process. Shortly after changing his name Williams/Davis told the Houston media, “That […]

O.J. — Oh Snap

There’s a new O.J. coming to LA and he’s one bad ass….
It feels like I have been hearing about high school basketball star O.J. Mayo since forever. As he finally approaches college it seems like he is a bad, bad apple. In January, he assaulted a referee after being ejected from a […]

Who will be Michigan’s next basketball coach?

I was going to write a post about Tommy Amaker being fired and evaluate his potential replacements but my friend Wolk beat me to it by sending out a great email today (a copy is below). I agree with Wolk that we need a coach who can recruit and coach. Although Michigan has […]

Tourney Stuff To Watch

One of the reasons I fell in love with college basketball as a kid was because there seemed to be an infinite universe of schools, players and storylines. I used to wonder how every team had such a good record. What happened to the teams with bad records? Were they like the […]

March Madness Thoughts & L-Hoops Pool

This week of March Madness is far and away my favorite week of the year. First, Championship week leads up to selection sunday (today). The next few days are great for filling out your brackets and to build up tremendous anticipation. Thursday and Friday are my favorite two days of the year. […]

Old School LittyHoops

A bunch of people have been asking me to write about college basketball. This makes sense since most people are used to reading my Littyhoops articles back in the day. I still try and carry on the Littyhoops legacy where it is appropriate (hence the header graphic of this blog). Actually, I’ll […]
