Basketball: In his first game back, Tracy McGrady was a little rusty, scoring only three points as the Rockets ended the Pistons five game win streak, 107-96. Well that ends the debate about voting someone to the All-Star team who hasn't played...Kobe Bryant scored 42 points with a broken finger as the Lakers sunk the Bulls, 96-87...The Cavs beat up the Nets, 99-89. Not that that is a very difficult feat...Seriously, yesterday I was flipping between the Knicks game and the Pens/Flyers rumble and I swear I turned the Knicks games off in the middle of the fourth quarter confident they'd wrapped up a victory and I flipped back with 6 seconds to go and they were losing 94-87. What the hell happened? A 15-2 run would be what happened. Oh and shout outs to Nascar driver Denny Hamlin who looked to have very nice courtside seats for the game...Ron Artest called Tiger Woods the perfect role model. Well if you mean in terms of sleeping with a vast amount of women and not getting anyone but your wife pregnant then yes, he is the perfect role model.
College Basketball: Jon Scheyer had a career high 36 points as Duke trampled Gardner-Webb, 113-68...Tennessee outlasted Wyoming, 77-58...Arkansas self-reported a secondary voilation concerning its athletes and the use of their photos...I know I said I was bored yesterday after looking at the AP Poll which had Kansas and Texas at the top again, but that's nothing compared to the Women's which features UCONN in the number spot for the 30th straight week.

College Football: After having six players named All-Americans, it's easy to see why Alabama is fighting for the National title this year...Two Ohio State players have been ruled ineligible for the Rose Bowl...Cincinnati is looking at Central Michigan coach Butch Jones as a replacement for Brian Kelly...Not everyone is happy about Mack Brown's $2 million raise...Congrats to TCU's Gary Petterson on being named Sporting News Coach of the Year...Keith Easterwood will not be talking to the NCAA about Tennessee's hostesses...The Big ten could expand by two. So that would make it the Big 12?
Football: Watch out Eric Mangini, the Browns are continuing to talk with Mike Holmgren...Cardinals receiver Larry Fitzgerald has a sprained knee...Clinton Portis' concussion does not seem career ending. But will it end his time in DC?...Someone may want to put a muzzle on Cowboys receiver Roy Williams. Just saying, it's probably not a good idea to provoke a team that is 13-0...The Rams have released Richie Incognito after his spat with coach Steve Spagnuolo. Clearly he was not being a good Incognito...Vikings back-up linebacker Erin (spelt the girl's way) Henderson was suspended four games for violating the League's PED rule...Just in case you were wondering, the NFL has ruled the Redskins did not tamper with Albert Haynesworth.
Hockey: Sidney Crosby had a goal and two assists as the Penguins punched out the Flyers, 6-1. Can't wait for Thursday when these two go at it again...Speaking of the Kid, he was named the top athlete in Canada for 2009...Also winning big were the Caps who shelled the Avs, 6-1...The Kings nipped the Oilers, 3-2 to take over the top spot in the West...It was fun night in St. Louis. They retired Brett Hull's #16 and then edged the Flames, 4-3...New day, same old Rick DiPietro, the man made of glass.

Best of the Rest: Look at that, Yanina Wickmayer will be allowed to play tennis after all...Kurt Busch didn't have to look far for his new crew chief, he just took the one his brother gave up. Steve Addington should change his business card to include "The Official Crew Chief of the Busch Brothers."...There will be one less week of festivities for the Indy 500 this year.
