The BOMC
bigleadsports ran an interesting article yesterday. The premise is that LHN will impact how the media reports on Texas athletics. Read past the suggestion of media being credible, and there are several interesting points. Here’s the crux of the story: In making itself synonymous with Texas, ESPN...
A Different Side Of Mack Brown
This piece by Pat Forde on Mack Brown is well worth a read and a useful reminder as to why the warm and fuzzy community organizer that we see working the media and drawing the love of mamas everywhere is also 130-27 (.828) as head coach at Texas. Watch this team meeting after the lackluster Rice...
Pat Forde is the New Scipio Tex
It's early October, which means it's time for the national media to pen uninteresting pieces about the Texas-OU rivalry. As expected, Pat Forde doesn't disappoint on that front. You might recall that fans spent good money last year renting airplanes to fly snide signs in each other's air space....
Forde: "Louisville will be stunned by Murray State"
In the first installment of his seasonal "Forde Yard Dash" column, ESPN's Pat Forde offers up a prediction that is likely to make Sunny Will Stein's head explode. The Big East (37) will have at least two bad losses. The schedule is set up for opening success: seven of the eight teams at home,...
Wednesday Schadenfreude: Brandon Bender Says He'll Spill His Guts About Rick Pitino
You can find the story over at AllKyHoops.com. You can also check out this post at Card Chronicle (be sure to read and enjoy all the comments). For my part, I can't imagine anything that could be revealed about Rick Pitino that would surprise me in the least after his 15 seconds of infamy at...

The One and Done: Should the NBA Change It? Why?
With three of our top players declaring for the draft (although I would be surprised if Joseph didn't return), the optimism for the basketball season took a huge blow. It probably makes it worse that we were knocked out of the NCAA tournament because a referee had trouble counting to five, leaving...

Quack Fix: Recap of Kelly v. Canzano, Oregon recruit's ineligibility forces high school forfeiture
Breathe, people. It will all be over soon. I mean the week, by the way, not the recent media shitstorm that's hit Eugene. That's only just beginning. Care for a little Morning Quack Fix? Hell, make it a double: The big news yesterday was the Kelly v. Canzano Magical Media Tour Showdown Face-off...
Mainstream Media to Big Ten Conference: "Our Bad"
For three-years the mainstream media has treated the Big Ten like an inferior race, taking charge at every occasion to reinforce general stereotypes about the conference's competitiveness. And why not? The media hates the Big Ten and a conservative, punishing brand of football that rarely sends...
