Musings From The Bald Prophet: Week 2 Of The College Hoops Seasn
11/23/2009
I have done my own bracketology once the conference season starts for the past ten years. I grew up a Syracuse fan but also root hard for my alma mater Kentucky. I don't always take the popular view of things but I don't get offended by dissent if it's presented well. I also wrote for a popular horse racing publication for over five years.
Look for my first novel, "Exiles on Front Street", to come out soon from Strategic Book Publishing! I am currently at work on my second novel, "Generation Blindside".
Nice article. Auburn's going to be a bad team this year - they lost Korvotney Barber who was their heart and soul.
Thoughts on Week 2: 1. The average fan would casually dismiss ESPN’s 24-hour marathon of college basketball as a cheap marketing gimmick. Fortunately, I am not your average fan...
Hi Marc-
I am beginning a very exciting adventure, and looking for support from the B/R community. Beginning this September I will visit every pro sports stadium in the span of one calendar year- becoming the first person to ever accomplish the feat. If you would be willing to contribute to the fund so I can accomplish this goal, or even to pass along to others who may be interested, I would be greatly indebted to you. Let me know if you would like more information. Thanks

Hey,
The turmoil surrounding the 1977 Yankees earned them the nickname of “The Bronx Zoo.” The current 2009 Yankees have an interesting blend of leaders and pranksters, so I decided to create a LITERAL “zoo.”
Check out what animal each Yankee would be reincarnated as in a next life.

Thanks everyone!

Hey,
It’s been a very long time since I have extended an article of mine to the Bulletin Boards of my friends/fans, but this one is filled with the true venom and passion of a frustrated Yankees fan. The days of consistent success are over, and this baseball lifer is blaming Brian Cashman. Read how he has displayed the baseball knowledge of a little leaguer in assembling Yankee teams of the last 7 years.

I would love to hear your feedback on this one. Thanks everyone!

Hey,
The Yankees have been putrid against Boston this year, especially over a 3-game sweep in Fenway Park. They are returning to the scene of the crime tonight, and this slideshow highlights 5 major reasons why this time around could be very different:

It appears as though Nick Swisher’s Yankees honeymoon is coming to a close, and is being replaced with married life. Smiles are quickly transitioning into expressions of concern. Read about how bad it has gotten for Swish in the Bronx.
