A Shout out to the greats

Shotime here,

Whoa Just what I needed!!

So I was cruising around the internet in search of a good site that shows soccer highlights across the world. Until now, I would have to search for poor quality youtube links that only go for about a minute or two. But then I came across this website and I am not going to lie, I hit the jack pot. Here it is soccer fans. I give you... Footytube! Enjoy.

NBA TV Top 10: March 9th

Hey Sports Fans,
Bringing you one of the last sports blogs for the quarter. With Finals just around the corner I wanted to end it with the Top 10 Plays of the Week in the NBA. Some of these were outrages and really good hustle plays. Overall I think it has been a great week within the NBA, and I am greatly looking forward to the game tonight by the Los Angeles Lakers and the Miam Heat. It should be a great game considering that the Lakers lost last time they played and that the Heat are currently in a 5 game losing streak while the Lakers are in a 8 game winning streak.

Player Tackles Streaker

Hey Sports Fans,

Have some funny news for you this fine Wednesday afternoon. In a soccer match between Dorchester and Havant & Waterloo in England's six tier of soccer, an intruder, dressed in a bright green thong ran onto the field. The stewards leisurely pursued him but it wasn't until Dorchester's Ashley Vickers grew impatient that the pest was apprehended. Vickers was given a red card, crushing Dorchester's playoff hopes, as it is apparently illegal for players to get involved with streakers.

Apologies for the fans' language. Soccer sure brings out some of the strangest behavior in the world.

Miami Running out of Heat

Hey Sports Fan,

Just bringing you some news about the "superstar" team known as the Miami Heat. Currently the Heat are in a losing streak of 3 games. With 2 humiliating losses back to back, one to the Orlando Magic and last nights to the San Antonio Spurs the Heat seem to have lost there composure and seem to be spiraling down. The first major loss they had was against the Magic where they gave up a 24 point lead heading in to the third quarter. The Orlando Magic was able to score 54 points in the second half of the game compared to the 33 points scored by the Miami Heat. This was a devastating loss considering they were in the lead for most of the game and they essentially threw away the game in the second half.

Just last night the Heat were ready to redeem themselves but they were unable to get anything going against the San Antonio Spurs. The Heat could not contain San Antonio in any sense, Miami ended up scoring only 12 points compared to the Spurs 36 points. After the first quarter Tim Duncan stated "game over" and after the first quarter the Heat never had a chance to ever come back. The heat ended up losing 125(Spurs) to 95(Heat).

Overall it seems that the Heat need to regather themselves and somehow win a game to continue winning. Only time will tell of what will happen to the Heats lack of team work.

Man U Drops Big Game

Hey Sports Fans,

Really disappointing loss for Manchester United today. I'm no Man U fan but I am certainly a Chelsea hater. Having held a 1-0 lead going into half, United had a positive outlook for the rest of the match but after David Luiz's early goal, Chelsea rallied. Following a questionable penalty call in the 79th minute, Frank Lampard netted a sweet PK into the roof of the net. Missed opportunities and more questionable refereeing ensued and United trudged into their locker room with their tails between their legs.

This is United's second loss this season, although they are still firmly in first place in the EPL.

This is also my first loss this month in Streak for Ca$h. 0-1 currently but feeling very optimistic about the Mavericks beating the Sixers in Philly tonight which will kick off my month of March streak of terror.

On a final note, who's excited for March Madness? Anyone have any crazy predictions? Would love to hear them...

Carmelo Power Not Enough for New York

Hey Sports Fans,

Shockingly the New York Knicks were unable to win against the worst team in the NBA the Cleveland Cavaliers in yesterdays games at Cleveland. With the new audition of powerhouse players such as Carmelo Anthony, Amare Stoudemire and Chauncey Billups, the Knicks where unable to pull a win when they essentially gave away the game in the third quarter. The Cavaliers where able to outscore the Knicks 30 to 22 points in the third, where the Knicks defense was nowhere to be seen. Even though the Knicks did end up losing Carmelo was quoted in stating that it was to be expected that they would lose there first couple of games since the team would have to adjust to the change in play style. The powerhouse three from Denver ended up scoring 84 out of 104 points for the game, but it still was not enough for the Knicks. Overall the Knicks seemed to be in control for most of the game until the third quarter where there was a lack of defense that ended up costing them the game. It will be interesting to find out how the Denver players are able to adjust to the Knicks in the future.
