NCAA Tourney & MLB Opening Day

Hello,

The season has started with Major League Baseball and the NCAA tourney is winding down after two weeks of quality play by the best teams in the US.

1st thing is with the NCAA tourney. It is the first time that we have 4 of the #1 seeds in the Final 4 and after Kansas almost suffered a bitter defeat to Davidson we have what everybody wanted. I have been disappointed that we have not had any surprises or Cinderellas like we usually do. Davidson is not considered a Cinderella to me mostly because they have played big schools throughout the season and played well against them. I was rooting for Louisville against UNC but they fell short to the Tarheels in North Carolina. Some problems I have to point out...first thing is that UNC plays in North Carolina throughout the tourney until they get to the Final 4 and then the head coach Roy Williams has the audacity to say that the game in North Carolina is not a home game. I am not a major in Geography, but I'm smart enough to know that he is closer to North Carolina then say Louisville. I loved Rick Pittino's response to Wiliam's dumb comment. Rick said that if Williams thinks it is not a home game that they should play the game at Louisville's home gymnasium and see if that's a home game. I agree with that and understand that UNC is the #1 overall team in the tourney but this is ridiculous. It's not like they need anymore help than they are getting by playing driving distance from their campus.

Another problem has to be with Texas playing in Houston, TX when playing the Memphis Tigers which was a #1 seed. Memphis had to play a road game against a lower seed which baffles me really. Texas got destroyed by Kevin Rose and the Tigers and Memphis is ready to take the title but it still does not make sense to have a higher seed play a road game against a lower seed. Duke got embarrassed by West Virginia and Bob Huggins and everybody knew it would happen when their 3-point shots finally started to miss the mark. Georgetown had a disappointing tournament this season with all those talented seniors and after the game I thought John Thompson III was going to cry. I wouldn't worry about it that much if I was JTIII because he has a slew of talent coming off of the High School train.

The last 4 in the tournament is:

• Memphis Tigers
• UCLA Bruins
• Kansas Jayhawks
• North Carolina Tarheels

I see UNC and Memphis in the Finals and UNC taking the title with their talented point guard Ty Lawson. Memphis will beat UCLA because they have more offense than the Bruins and UNC will beat Kansas because they have more veterans.


MLB has officially started finally after way too many preseason games. I won't talk about this anymore than I have to because I think there are too many damn games during the season (120+) and don't really watch baseball until we get to the playoffs. I think the Boston Red Sox will do the same thing they did last season because of their offense and bullpen (which is better than last season). I think the LA Dodgers will be really good this season with their new manager Joe Torre from the Yankees. Torre got a raw deal in New York and am glad he could get out of that chaotic situation as well as he did. I have to pick the Sox to win it all once again with the amount of young good talent they have. Joe Garardi of the Yankees won't last too long with NY mostly because he has problems with authority like when he was with the Marlins in Florida.

Michael Vick Gets 23 Months in Prison

Michael Vick walked in a courtroom this morning in black and white striped uniform as he was sentenced to 23 months of prison time after a long troubled life so far. It was sad to see an individual throw part of his life away mostly of what he had in front of him at the beginning of the NFL season. He was the starting QB for the Atlanta Falcons and it was his team. The owner loved Michael and was almost like a mentor to Michael for his time in Atlanta. Michael did not just let down himself, he let down his whole organization including his teammates and especially the man he called boss.

It was also different to look at his ex teammates as they played a football game tonight against the New Orleans Saints as they lost once again big (34-14). The team is now 3-10 and has already packed it in for the offseason obviously. I don't know how his ex-teammates could support him for what he did. You would almost have to be stupid beyond stupid to believe that he was actually innocent. The Federal Government had so many shreds of evidence and enough dead dogs to put him away for almost life. They had his friends turning against him to testify against him because they knew they had been caught and he had to know at that point that he was going away for some hard time. At that time, he had a meeting with the Commish of the NFL Roger Goodell and was asked specifically if he was even remotely guilty of the charges and he looked at the commish and lied and knew he had done it. Why wouldn't he just cut ties and know he was truly fucked and tell the truth and save himself. But, he lied and then after Roger figured out Mick was lying suspended Mick indefinitely and now Michael will not even come close to the NFL until he is at least 30. And don't get me started with his younger brother in how much of a screw up he is.

Michael went to Virginia Tech (Hokies) and was a wonderful talent. He was one of his kind at the time…he could run faster than anybody else on the field and could throw the ball completely down the field. Everybody knew this guy would be good in the NFL and the Atlanta Falcons picked him up in the draft. The Falcons before they got Michael were a horrible team and had been for a while, but when Michael stepped out of the plane the city of Atlanta and state of Georgia were excited like crazy almost like how Cleveland was when LeBron James went to the Cavs. The team got a whole new coaching staff and put a young head coach to help Mick through his time in Atlanta and things were looking good in Georgia. Unfortunately, the team never got with it and stalled to ok finishes under Vick and then he started to get injured and had season ending injuries and then it got to the incident where after a football game in Atlanta as Vick walked off the field he used the power of sign language and flipped off his own fans. Things went downhill from there. Then, Michael was caught with a dog-fighting gambling ring and he fell flat on his face very fast. People should be happy that the justice system won today and that Michael is going to pay for what he did. What he did was sick and twisted and he should have paid for 5 years in prison, but since he is an athlete he only paid 23 months. He has been a disastrous player and his stats back that up and whoever wants to pick him up after he gets out of prison? You would have to be desperate as a team or want a bus full of cameras and questions about him to see if he still has it.

Michael had it and was given so many chances to be successful and he threw all of them away and will pay dearly for what he did. Whoever thinks that he is innocent you should read the Feds report and you will see exactly what he did to dogs and how he physically killed them by hanging them and if the dog didn't die he would stick the dog's head in a bucket full of water and drown the dog and he did it with many dogs when the dogs got the shit beat out of them. Life does not need people like Michael and the NFL if they are smart should stay away from Michael because of what kind of person he is. I am done here and I have said enough.

Shawn Marion Wants Out of Phoenix

Shawn Marion, the power forward of the Phoenix Suns for the last 8 seasons wants a trade out of Phoenix now. Marion wants out of Phoenix mostly because he was in trade talks with the Celtics when Phoenix was trying to pick up Kevin Garnett.

"I'm tired of hearing my name in trades," Marion said by phone. "I love my fans in Phoenix, but I think it's time for me to move on." Marion has two years left on his contract and is supposed to make $17.8 million in the 2008-09 season. I truthfully do not see the problem with being put in trade talks. Marion is taking the trade talks personally and he is taking it the wrong way. The Suns did not put his name in the ring of trade options because they hate him or because the head coach hates his guts, it's because Marion has value to trade for a much better player in Garnett. There is one thing every team should want to do and that is win at any cost, and if that means that you as a GM or owner will unfortunately hurt a player's feelings to get better so you can win the NBA Championship, then that's the way it works. If Marion does not like it, he should retire and go back to Chicago, but right now he needs to suck it up and be a professional about it and make his 16-18 million the next two seasons and after that he can go wherever he wants to go.

Steroid Sting Bust 120 People

I know it might seem like I'm beating a dead horse here, but I promise this story is big. Authorities arrested more than 120 people and uncovered dozens of steroid labs in an international investigation into the illicit trade of performance-enhancing drugs, federal officials announced Monday. The Drug Enforcement Administration said the investigation, called Operation Raw Deal, was assisted by the governments of nine other countries, including China. In the United States, agents seized 56 labs manufacturing anabolic steroids and human growth hormone (HGH) and seized 11.4 million doses of drugs in all, the DEA said.

One of the largest charged is a Chinese manufacturer accused of smuggling HGH in to the United States and four men who allegedly distributed drugs through a MySpace profile. DEA spokesman Michael Sanders said 143 federal search warrants were issued during the 18-month investigation, many of them since Thursday. The FBI, Internal Revenue Service, U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement and the Food and Drug Administration were also involved. One of the questions would be how China helped in the investigation since a company inside of China is being charged, here is your answer: "China really stepped up to the plate to help us in this investigation," DEA spokesman Garrison Courtney said in Washington.

In all, investigators seized over 500 pounds of raw ingredients from a steroid manufacture that originated in China. Other countries who participated in the investigation were Mexico, Canada, Australia, Belgium, Denmark, Germany, Sweden and Thailand.

This just shows how rampant the illegal drug industry is and that it isn't a problem just in the United States.

Mike Tyson Pleads Guilty to Drug, DUI Charges

Former heavyweight champion Mike Tyson pleaded guilty Monday to charges of drug possession and driving under the influence stemming from a traffic stop last year when he was leaving a nightclub. Tyson also aknowledged that he had cocaine and was impaired when he was stopped for driving all over the road in Arizona on December 29th. Tyson faces up to 4 years in prison for the counts that are against him. Tyson is like O.J. Simpson in a lot of ways, they cannot stay out of trouble. I still think there are some people like Tyson and Simpson that enjoy it when they get in trouble. I hope Tyson gets put in prison and that the authorities forget to let him out of his cell.

Brett Favre Ties TD Recrod with 420

Brette Favre of the Green Bay Packers tied Dan Marino's tuchdown record at 420 on Sunday against the San Diego Chargers. Favre went 28 of 45 with 369 yards and 3 tuchdowns against the bolts in Lambo Field. The tuchdown was thrown in the 4th quarter when the Packers were down 21 to 17 with about 2 minutes left in the game. Favre threw a slant to Greg Jennings and Jennings ran about 50 yards or so to a game winning tuchdown. Phillip Rivers of the Chargers had a chance with about a minute left in the game to win it but he threw an interception to ice the game.

When asked after the game how big the record was to Brett, Brett could care less about the record and more that the Packers won a big game and that his team was 3-0. "I could care less about the record," Favre said, "Everybody's congratulating me, but I told them it doesn't mean anything if we don't win the game." I don't think anybody in the NFL thought the Packers would start the season 3-0, especially after the season they had last year.

I am happy for Brett mostly because of what he has had to go through during his career as a quarter back and I hope the team does well for the rest of the season, but the offense does not have any real fire power...they have Favre, and Donald Driver and that is it. They have no running game to speak of with Brandon Jackson running for only 22 yards on 6 carries. Later on in the season, the defensive teams will just stop the passing game and win ball games that way.

AP Top 25 College Football (for week 4)

7. Texas Longhorns (0)
   
8. Ohio State Buckeyes (0)
   
9. Wisconsin Badgers (0)
   
10. Rutgers (0)

Well, there you go. The only suprises for me has to be that Nebraska stayed in the top 25, Cincinnati was entered into the mix, that Georgia was not moved up more after beating a good Alabama team and that Arizona State was entered in at #23. That's why I don't make the decisions for the AP.

NCAA Football Top 25 (after Week 4)

Boston College is playing well, Georgia got a huge win in Alabama against the Red Tide in overtime, Clemson got an ok win, Hawaii was winning the last time I checked the score, South Carolina got a disappointing loss in Death Valley against LSU, Penn State also got a disappointing loss against 1-2 Michigan in the Big House, the Bruins got thumped last weekend when they were at #10 but I think they have turned it around, South Florida is the surprise of 2007, Michigan State thumped Notre Dame (which was not that hard this season), Kentucky got a big win against Arkansas, Missouri has not convinced me yet, but they just keep on winning, Miami (FL) thumped Texas A&M which was #20 at the time of the game and Virginia is at the top of the ACC right now by winning 3 conference games all ready.

The NCAA weekend in a paragraph. I will have the AP Top 25 tomorrow when it comes out and see how many I got right (more like how many I got wrong).

Enjoy,
Ryan

Federal Agents Seize Illegal Steroids from New Jersey Home

In Newark, New Jersey, Federal Agents raided a Jersey home and seized more than 40,000 doses of illegal anabolic steroids. The agents said that the house they raided was being used as a factory. The manufacturing was being done in the basement of the home of Alfred Scarpa, an electrician who was arrested by the Drug Enforcement Agency, agents said. Scarpa, 34 admitted that he was involved with buying, making and selling steroids. He was held without bail.

DEA Agents also seized $56,000 cash & 2 semiautomatic handguns and in the basement it was filled with "tubes, bottles, vials," Assistant U.S. Attorney Robert Kirsch said. The raid happened after the Feds acquired emails from Scarpa that showed that he was negotiating to buy steroid powder since at least April 2006. The DEA also found financial records showing wire transfers totaling at least $25,000 to businesses in Colonia and New Providence, some which were suppliers of steroids, the DEA said.

This story is huge because it shows that the Feds are now finding out how and where the steroids are originating. There was a story about this same thing in Yahoo! Sports that talks about how the Feds are finally figuring out where HGH is originating. The story is here: http://tinyurl.com/2kvp2e. Most of the HGH that gets into the United States for a multitude of reasons mostly comes from China. A man who in March pleaded not guilty to charges of illegally selling HGH and steroids received $108,900 for Somatropin, a generic form of HGH, which was imported from China which was in violation of the U.S. Food and Drug Administration rules, according to the documents that were found. To understand the whole story, you will have to read the whole story by Josh Peter of Yahoo! Sports.

The scary thing that comes out of these examples and stories is that it will be hard to stop the importing of HGH from China. Again like I said in my past posts, the "steroid period" will not go away until the feds come up with a way to test for HGH. MLB officials said that the "steroid period" was gone and that we were entering the clean period of sports, but obviously they were way off. Even if say Barry Bonds of the San Francisco Giants really took the "cream", we as a society need to look not just at popular players that you might hate, but the players that are really nice. I don't think Bonds truthfully took steroids because if you think about it, steroids cannot and will not increase you talent as a player by just "juicing" up. The concept of steroids is to give you more stamina so you don't get injured as much and if you do get injured it will cut down on the rehab time of the injury itself. Barry Bonds is one of the most talented baseball players of all time not because of the home runs he hit, but because of the overall game he has. The guy was a stellar left fielder when he was younger and he knew the concept of hitting the ball the other way and how to on a consistent basis. The only reason baseball people hate Bonds and think he took steroids is because he is an ass to the media. If you remember, before Mark McGuire retired, he was one of the nicest and most liked persons in baseball by the media during his home run breaking period. Then, after he retired and went to the government hearing and wouldn't answer any of the questions about what he did during his career because he only wanted to talk about the future, not talk about the past. Then you had Rafael Palmero of the Baltimore Orioles pointing his figure to the panel stating he had never taken steroids and then 2-3 months later he is suspended for failing the steroid test. I can go on forever, with Sammy Sosa who had the corked bat when he played with the Cubs and then afterword denied that he had a corked bat and lied about it. I know I'm rambling on, but it all ties back to steroids and how it will change and screw people up physically. Just look at the WWE (World Wrestling Entertainment) and all of their wrestlers sudden deaths from heart failures. Most of them were "juicing up" and the "juicing up" destroyed their bodies and with one of them destroyed his brain. Chris Benoit went off of the deep end because of taking steroids and killed his kid by smothering him/her with a pillow, then killed his wife and after killing them both hung himself in the basement of his home in Atlanta, Georgia. The investigators said that the steroids he was taking screwed up the electrical impulses in his brain and made him go off of the deep end. My next post will talk about what steroids will do to people's bodies and how it will destroy young children if they take them.

Golf Testing for Steroids & Floyd Landis Positive for Steroids

The PGA Tour will start to randomly test its players in the spring as part of an unparalleled attempt to jointly coordinate screening and policing policies worldwide. 10 substances will be banned including anabolic steroids, street drugs, blood-doping agents and artificial hormones. The European Tour, LPGA, PGA of America, U.S. Golf Association, Royal & Ancient Golf Club and Augusta National Golf Club will all be testing for the same thing as golf will try to make the testing a worldwide policy. "This is very good news for us that all of the bodies are on 'side' including the four majors," the European Tour commissioner George O'Grady said.

The testing procedures and punishments will not be set in place until at least November, but the players will most likely be tested during the season and also during the offseason like other large sports do. Golf decided to do drug testing "so we can demonstrate our sport is clean -- and we can keep it that way," Peter Dawson said, the executive director of the R&A. Peter helped lead the need for standard global testing.

The testing will cost around $1.5 million to run over the next two to three years. It was inevitable for golf to join onto the random steroid testing that most of the large sports do now. Until there is a test for HGH (human growth hormone), steroids will stay out of reach and out of our control. A good example is a new sports story that came out today (Thursday). It was about the American cycling star Floyd Landis. Floyd's 2006 Tour de France title was taken away after he tested positive for synthetic testosterone, a type of anabolic steroid that was found in Floyd's 'B' sample. The ruling, handed down nearly four months after a bizarre and bitterly fought hearing, left the American with one final way to possibly salvage his title - an appeal to the Court of Arbitration for Sport.

The decision was 2-1 to maintain the results of the positive drug test. "Today's ruling is a victory for all clean athletes and everyone who values fair and honest competition," U.S. Anti-Doping Agency CEO Travis Tygart said. Landis will now take a huge blow because for months he consistently stated that he never took drugs and that the French anti-doping agency screwed up the tests.

Obviously, Landis had something to say, "This ruling is a blow to athletes and cyclists everywhere," Landis said. "For the Panel to find in favor of USADA when, with respect to so many issues, USADA did not manage to prove even the most basic parts of their case shows that this system is fundamentally flawed. I am innocent, and we proved I am innocent." If Landis does not appeal this case, then he will be the first cyclist in the 105-year history to lose a title because of a doping offense.

This only shows even more that it doesn't matter what professional sport it is, steroid use will not slow down until an iron fist comes down and general testing is done like what the Olympics do with their possible athletes. Everybody knows that the Olympic committee is the harshest when it comes to steroid testing and they are very successful with it. We have MLB and their bullshit way of testing baseball players and how they turned their head when they knew that players like Sammy Sosa and Mark McGuire were "juicing" up when they were hitting 60 + homeruns. The NBA still has not used random drug tests with their athletes and who blames them, they already have bigger problems than the NFL and MLB combined. They have NBA refs betting on games and players running up into the stands and taking swings at fans. David Stern will never get the Detroit/Pacers game out of his history…the NBA will be tainted because of the game where Ron Artest was suspended for the whole NBA season without pay.

The next sport to test for drugs will be tennis, mark my words because they will be pestered by the media until they do it also. People will start to second guess tennis stars like Roger Federer and Rafael Nedal and ask if they "juice" like Jason Giambi.

Yankees Creeping Up on Red Sox

At one point in the MLB season, the New York Yankees were 14 games behind the Boston Red Sox for the AL East title. Now after a couple of months, the Yankees caught fire and now are only 2 1/2 games behind the Sox. The hot streak hit a high when the Yankees played Boston at Fenway park this last weekend and took two out of three from the Sox. At that point, the NY was only 5 1/2 games behind, but the Sox weren't sweating yet. Now, after the Sox have lost 3 games in a row and after losing to the Toronto Blue Jays, the Yanks are only 2.5 games back and are making the Sox sweat. If the playoffs started today (Wednesday), the Yankees would play in Los Angels (or Anaheim) and the Sox would play in Boston against the Cleveland Indians. The Sox will pull thru but the real question is if Manny Ramirez can come back and be a force like he was at the beginning of the season after coming back from a strained oblique muscle. If Manny can be Manny after his injury, the Sox will be just fine because their bullpen is the best in baseball (except for Eric Gange).

The AL West and Central are pretty much taken care of with under two weeks left in the season. The Indians are up 7.5 games on the Detroit Tigers and the Angels are up 9 games to Seattle. The really tight one is in the NL Central with the Chicago Cubs and Milwaukee Brewers. In that race, it isn't who wants it but who can actually win games for more than three days. I like the Cubs in that race mostly because Milwaukee is too young and inconsistent.

The New York Mets are dropping games like they are dropping baseballs. The Mets have lost 5 in a row and in the last ten are only 4-6. The Mets in two games, one against the Phillies and one against the Nationals had a combined 10 errors. Philadelphia is only a game and a half behind the Mets and have won 6 games in a row and are 8-2 in the last 10 games. I like the Mets, but if they cannot start winning baseball games, they are going to be done in the playoffs and maybe in the wild card race.

In the NL West, the San Diego Padres are only a game behind the Arizona Diamondbacks and the Padres have won 5 in a row and are 7-3 in the last 10 games to where the Diamondbacks are only 6-4 in the last 10 games. Contradicting the streaks with both these teams, I like the Diamondbacks in that race mostly because of their dominate pitching they have had throughout the season. The Padres will not feel left out in the end either because they are on top of the Wild Card race in the National League. The Yankees are 5 up on the Detroit Tigers and don't look like they are going to slow down.

That is your update on the baseball playoff race with 10-11 games left. The playoffs will be a good one with really talented teams. Here are the matchups if the playoffs started today:

(AL) N.Y. Yankees @ L.A. Angels
(AL) Cleveland Indians @ Boston Red Sox
(NL) Chi Cubs OR Milwaukee Brewers @ Arizona Diamondbacks
(NL) San Diego Padres @ N.Y. Mets
