“March Madness” as originally coined by Henry V. Potter just isn’t as maddening to me as it used to be. My younger life revolved around the tournament this time of year. I knew 100’s of players and which school th…
Never have I Ever I have been a Steeler homer since I could breathe.I have been around for all of the Super Bowls and experienced the joys and pains of losing them as well. As Chuck Noll headed down the homestretch of his coaching career it…

I really like golf, but only occasionally do I feel like that is reciprocated. Another Full Swing season was recently dropped by Netflix. I think the series is very well done and I enjoy the insight into their lives that you wouldn&rsquo…
In what was once a promising season went so south they may not be allowed to get back into the country based on current rules. The University of Pittsburgh Men’s basketball team k(16-14) lost their mojo months ago and have shown a glim…
Like Sylvester and Tweety the Pitt Men’s basketball team perpetually was tortured by the Louisville Cardinals all Saturday evening. The Panthers must have suffered from an overindulgence of “succotash” as their record dropped to 16…
Busy Week for ALL Let's be honest—it's been a hectic week! We've had College Basketball, the NFL Combine, Spring Training Baseball, and of course, my job. But don't worry, I didn't forget about my Cavaliers! Virginia (14-14, 7-10 ACC) deliv…
NFL fans, it’s that time of year again. We are in the month of February and we all know what that means, NFL COMBINE. The NFL combine is an event that invites about 330 collegiate football players to help their draft status. It is a 4 day even…
Pitt BB report #16 I’d rather watch paint dry than watch Pitt Men’s basketball team continue their poor efforts against ACC opponents at this point. I have seen better efforts out of Pittsburgh Pythons led by Dr. J than the Pant…
he debate over whether the NFL should ban the “Tush Push” (or Brotherly Shove, as it’s been called when the Eagles run it) is a hot topic. Here are a few reason to why the NFL should ban it and a few reasons to why they probably wo…
Duke (23-3, 15-1 ACC) rolled to an 80-62 victory over Virginia (13-13, 6-9) in ACC action on Monday night in Charlottesville, Va. The Cavaliers showed some fight early, with five lead changes in the first five minutes. However, Virginia cooled off …

Pitt BB report 14 I never knew a leprechaun could invoke so much pain in a Panther until I watched what the Notre Dame Men’s basketball team did to the Pitt Panthers on Saturday. It was a touche of the sorts, probably ending Pit…
The recent blockbuster trade between the Los Angeles Lakers and the Dallas Mavericks, which sent Luka Dončić to the Lakers in exchange for Anthony Davis, has been a major talking point in the NBA community. Evaluating who “won” the trade…
The “U” thought they were going to storm the Petersen Event Center and make a splash on the pitiful Pitt Men’s Panther basketball team but the “Kittens” sharpened their claws and evaded the waters of def…
I’m a positive guy! Seriously! I try to see things from an optimistic view but sometimes it is a struggle. Right now the struggle is real as a fan of the University of Pittsburgh Men’s basketball. Stomped on the road once again by a bunc…
I’m an Arkansas Razorbacks fan and have been my whole life. I lived in Arkansas until the age of 12, but never switched from the Hogs. It’s rough being a Razorbacks fan. Add that onto being a Steelers, Penguins and Pira…
The Panthers couldn’t get the tar off their heels long enough to hold off the University of North Carolina as this back and forth matchup ended up with 67-66 for UNC. The game played in Chapel Hill finishes the regular season match ups with a …
OMG! OMG! What a week for the University of Virginia! The Cavaliers put an old-fashioned whipping on the Panthers, dominating Pitt 73-57. UVA came out strong and never let up. Honestly, if you lose to Virginia like that at home, you should automati…
I’m not exactly sure where to begin. It’s not like much of what I am going to write has not been said over and over and over and…you get the point. In the early 90’s, I had the fortunate advantage to attend Pirate playoff ga…
This exercise has shown me once again that I suck at condensing my thoughts so, I’m just going to blurt things out… The Luka/AD trade got all the hype, but the most impactful recent NBA trade is the Spurs addition of De’Aaron Fox…
