I have said it once and I will say it again: If a team doesn't win their conference championship, they SHOULD NOT be allowed to play for the national championship. I don't care if Alabama did beat LSU in last seasons' BCS National Championship game, I still don't believe that they deserved to be there in the first place.
Prior to the start of the NBA Playoffs, I thought--and quite confidently too, I might add—that I had until the Eastern Conference Finals (at the very least) before I even had to consider the possibility of the Bulls being eliminated from the playoffs.
After seeing—and hearing—University of Wisconsin men's basketball coach Bo Ryan being tarred and feathered while being dragged through town square on his way to the gallows for the way he "mishandled" the Jared Uthoff transfer request last week by members of the media, all I could do was sit back and shake my head in disgust.
I never thought I would say this, but maybe Mr. Wade and Mr. Allen should listen to LeBron James to see what it means to be a member of Team USA.
Does no one care that the man is an adulterer, a liar, and a cheat? Shouldn't support be going out to Petrino's wife and kids? Shouldn't people be relieved that Ms. Dorrell wasn't seriously injured in the crash instead of treating her like she is the problem?

While he may likely lose his job after this season, Weber is not the only problem at Assembly Hall.
Some players get named to the All-Star roster based on name recognition alone, while others—even when they are putting up "career numbers"—won't even sniff the game.
Football coaches always preach to their players about the importance of living their lives with character, honor, and integrity.

Are you planning on cheering for the New England Patriots tomorrow night when they square off against the Denver Broncos in their AFC Divisional Playoff game?
If you signed a five year contract with a company, would you expect to be given a two-year extension after your first two years produced average results?
I suppose I should congratulate the Crimson Tide for beating the Tigers 21-0 to win their second "national championship" in the last three seasons, but I am having a really hard time doing so.
Cubs fans can now breathe a sigh of relief knowing that they won't have to wonder when number 38 is going to "lose it" any longer.
To say that the Bulls have looked good in the teams' first two games of the 2011-12 NBA season would be a lie.
I will never be one of those insane chest thumpers that feel it is necessary to puff out my chest based on how my "conference" plays in bowl games, but apparently, I am one of the few who actually feels this way.
With all the hoopla surrounding Chris Paul and Dwight Howard, I realized just how blessed the Chicago Bulls are to have a guy like Derrick Rose leading the franchise back to prominence.
When I first heard that Albert Pujols decided to leave the St. Louis Cardinals in favor of the Los Angeles Angels, my initial reaction was one of relief.
The Heisman Trophy, one of the few post season awards that I actually used to have respect for, is about to fall into the same pit of college football ridiculousness.
There are no "do overs" in life. Well, unless your favorite college football team happens to be the Alabama Crimson Tide, of course.
