Wake Up Pau

  The Lakers can not win the championship if Kobe Bryant takes three times as many shots as Pau Gasol. Not against this Celtics team. Unfortunately, that seems to be the game plan for most of this series.   Gasol has been called by many the most skilled offensive big man in the NBA. In game one, [...]

Remembering Jack Johnson

Today, 64 years ago, the world lost the first African American heavyweight champion. On June 10, 1946, Jack Johnson died in a car accident at 68 years of age. I don’t want to go in to too much detail here as the video does a pretty good job (plus you can find everything on Wikipedia). [...]

Quick Thoughts Through Three Games

So this years Finals have been really, REALLY good so far. So many players trying to redefine their legacies. So many great performances. Too much to write about just one detail, so I’m just going to put all my random thoughts out there. Has a player ever became the greatest at something then immediately put [...]

Lakers and Celtics – A Must See Final

I really did plan on skipping the NBA Finals this year. I was convinced that this was Orlando’s year. I had already made June travel plans to Orlando. I was weighing whether or not I should skip work in order to see the parade. In my mind, the games were just a formality. We all [...]

KTFO – Greene KO’s Salmon

Cotto-Foreman at Yankee Stadium is an event I’m pretty excited for in itself, but it also has a very good undercard fight. Top Rank prospect Vanes Martirosyan puts his undefeated record on the line against the tough but unknown Mean Joe Greene. Back in 2007 a 21 year old Greene faced Daryl Salmon on ESPN2. [...]

Real Talk – Miguel Cotto

Miguel Cotto has always represented what every fan dreams of in a star fighter. Cotto has made a career out of breaking down the top fighters in his weight class. He’s determined and undistracted. He’s methodical and relentless. Unfortunately, these are the qualities that led to his downfall. Cotto has never ducked a fighter. During his [...]

Kendrick Perkins Should be Suspended

The title doesn’t get much more blunt than that. I was planning on taking a week’s vacation from Summer and Main but this issue ruffled my feathers a bit. For the last several seasons I’ve watched Dwight Howard get slammed by every post player in the NBA. The refs let it go, because Howard’s athletic ability [...]

KTFO – Abner Mares KO’s Carlos Fulgencio

This week’s KTFO is from Abner Mares, who fights on the Showtime undercard Saturday night. The KO comes a little after the 1:40 mark and it’s the first body shot knockout featured at S&M. After getting beaten severely, Carlos Fulgencio takes a beautiful left hook body shot that lays him out. Doug Fischer immediately reacts by saying [...]

This Sucks.

I really wish I wasn’t writing this, but I’m not in a good place today. Orlando’s loss to the Celtics last night was one of the roughest I’ve ever experienced. The game put me in a funk that I haven’t snapped out of yet. The Celtics controlled 85% of the game last night. By the [...]

It’s Now or Never

You could probably make this relation to any league, but I view the history of the NBA in eras. In the 80′s we had the Magic/Bird era which was ended by the Detroit Bad Boys. That era was obviously followed by the Michael Jordan era (1991-Summer of 1998). That was killed by the implosion of [...]
