As ye Legend followers know, we try to throw up original content as frequently as our day jobs allow. However, once in a while, well, dumps happen. Here are a few of the things causing our eyebrows to furrow this morning.
VOLS LOSE
We were watching this game in the first half. Tennessee was by far the superior team. They should have played their uptempo game and run a young, not very poised Kentucky team out of the building. Such is what you do to prove you’re an elite top 10 team worthy of final four chatter. Apparently, the Vols gave it away in the second half. Loser with Socks bemoaned the loss and gave a few reasons the committee may be kind to Kentucky come March. UT fans should calm themselves for a few days after this one.
SPYGATE2: GARDEN EDITION
Larry Brown Sports references a recent interview their namesake gave to Philadelphia Magazine in which Coach Brown claims Dolan and the Knicks had spies assigned to Brown during his season in New York. We are inclined to believe LB. This Garden management team (read: Dolan) is something else.
JACOBSON CUT OFF
Dana Jacobson, who co-anchors the putrid First Take show on ESPN, has been suspended for a week by the worldwide leader. The Big Lead provides a bit more background on the story. Apparently, DJ got a little liquored up at the Mike and Mike Roast in Atlantic City and maybe ran her mouth a bit. And??? That’s why the thing wasn’t televised to begin with. So people could get bombed and throw out some inappropriate stuff. Hence, ROAST. Think the same thing would’ve happened if it was Ditka who was bombed and spewing expletives? We’re just sayin…
THE NATS WILL BE A FORCE IN THE A.L. WAIT, HUH?
BASEBALL CONTRACTS CONTINUE TO DEFY LOGIC: OCTAVIO DOTEL
Former Mets and Astros closer Octavio Dotel (wait, he played for the Royals and Braves, too? riiiight), scooped up a cool $11M guaranteed for two years of potential service to the Chicago White Sox. Dotel was last healthy for a full year back in the Reagan administration. Healthy and dominant? I’d have to say…uhhh…never. The Detroit Tigers contingency at Construda would like to personally thank Sox GM Kenny Williams for his vision.
