Larry Brown & Isiah Thomas Separated

Well the time has come and Larry Brown is gone as the head coach in New York. Isiah Thomas will be taking over and will get a chance to take over what he has created. I cant wait to see it. Do you think these guys will still be friends? Maybe the Lingerie Thomas bought for ~~Brown~~ his Marketing Assistant will still go to good use. This is going to be interesting, maybe thomas should just dress up in a Sexy Halloween Costume for the season as its going to be a JOKE! At least that will be some fun basketball to watch. Isiah screaming, jumping up and down in a Referee Costume.

Phoenix Suns Blog

So i’m a Phoenix Suns fan and just tried to find a few other blogs that talk about the Suns. Well I couldnt find anything. Well thats not exactly true, I fund 2 blogs that havent been updated since last year and a few corporate type blogs but none really dedicated to the Suns.

Whats the deal Phoenix? I know most cities have blogs dedicated to their beloved home teams but thats not the case here. Im sure their is a need, heck I want to read something not from the AP about the Suns. ESPN sucks now so what do I do?

Go Suns!

Ad:** Many people find that the University of Phoenix offers some useful online classes.**

Barry Bonds and Stolen Lies

You guys got to check this article out over at deadspin. Its amazing how a FAKE article can make it all the way to the Sports Iillustrated homepage. It really is amazing. How can professional reporters just repost stuff they see without trying to verify it themselves or at least showing where they got the info.

Very disgraceful and eye opening. Its a good thing I dont visit the SI site because after seeing this I cant imagine I would believe anything they spout off about. Next time I see an article from SI i will think of this.

Here is the screen shot as the story will HOPEFULLY not stay up very long.

Sports and Marketing: Whats ESPN Doing?

Can anyone tell me why ESPN is putting all their content behind Insider. This is the service that you have to pay to read thier featured articles. I thought they sold advertising? I rarely go to ESPN because everytime i do find something interesting (not the normal AP stuff as Cuban writes here) they have it hidden behind this Insider crap. I can go to a thousand other sites to get the info and see ads running next to them, why is ESPN limiting their content to people when the more content they provide the more ads they can push. Instead of loosing readers they would be gaining. They may be generating some revenue from this but I would guess its going to hurt their image and annoy their readers.

I have found a pretty good and amusing Sportssite called Deadspin and looking for others that will fullfill my needs. ESPN has the content, the infastructure but they are in my eyes short sighted and killing their reader base, I just took them out of my favorites a few weeks back. Im sure others have done the same. Such a pity.

On another note have you heard the NFL network is moving into college football, ESPN here comes some competition!

What happened with Texas? The Cardinals take Matt Leinart? Poor USC and all their players dropping. Oh well, Maybe they can focus on academics now. How about we all go register for classes to make them feel better.

This just in Paris Hilton and Matt Leinart are supposedly dating. Its official hes gone Hollywood!
