The Sacramento Kings of the late 90's and early millennium were a sight to behold. I enjoyed watching them play as much if not more than the Suns led by Mike D'Antoni. I think Rick Adelman is one of the most underrated coaches in sports history. He's won everywhere he's ...

Listening to Jay Wright, it's very easy to see how he keeps getting good recruiting classes to the Villanova in the suburbs of Philadelphia. I'm not kidding when I say this, he might be the most likable interview guest I've heard. It never truly seems like an interview, it just ...

Jeff Moorad just agreed in principle to ...

Jason Taylor will tell you he had an off year last season, but that bodes well for the team that gets his name on a contract. Even though he'll be 35 when the season kicks off, Taylor is a highly motivated guy and a world talent. More importantly, he's a ...

Brad Faxon, one of the more underrated players on the PGA Tour, got on the horn with Dennis and Callahan (who he's apparently boys with) of WEEI recently to talk about Tiger's ridiculous win at Bay Hill. Faxon was hanging around near Tiger at the end of Bay Hill, and ...

Tom Izzo popped into the Waddle and Silvy show on Monday, presumably to chat about Michigan State and their chances of winning the title in Detroit this year (I mean ... duh, right? Yeah, duh.) Instead, Waddle and Silvy decided to ask him about prepping for Louisville and "home court ...
