Quote of the day
"There are two more teams left in the NCAA tournament from the city of Cincinnati than there are from all states west of the Pecos." -- Boston sportswriter Bob Ryan Daily blurb
We’re in the thick of baseball, basketball, hockey, and golf seasons. So what sport has dominated the landscape this week? Football, of course.
Bounty-gate. Wow!
Tim Tebow to the Jets, eh? I must confess, I don’t get that one. The juxtaposition of Tebow and Rex Ryan is humorous, however. I wonder how they’ll be able to communicate?
Jeff Overton is again the carryover favorite in GuruGolf, on roughly 44% of active foursomes.
The NCAA tournament resumes action tonight. One matchup features Ohio State and Cincinnati, who would seem to be natural rivals. But this is only the second time they have faced each other since the 1962 championship game. In the late 50s and early 60s, it was a classic rivalry. There must be a backstory (or several) as to why they’ve kept their basketball distance in spite of being only 100 miles apart. I suspect we’ll hear more about that tonight.
