scores

Scores. They are the very essence of sports. Yet they seem to take such a backseat these days to the stories better suited for the News section. Oh well, those were the days when the scores were everything.

Rocktober II
Could it be we are on the verge of another trip to the playoffs. The goal is in sight. Get ready to paint the town Purple. I love using this metaphor of pushing the rock up the hill. It’s very versatile you know.

Today’s View From the Bull Pen

The odds aren't good. Simply put waiting for an NBA player to make a free throw is a bit like waiting for the Cubs to win the World Series. It just ain't gonna happen. At least in our lifetimes. It reminds me of one of my favorite stories. Legendary basketball coach Don Haskins, all 250 plus pounds of him, had a player who apparently thought a bit highly of himself and didn't find his deficiency at the free throw line to be that big of a deal. Haskins challenged him to a free throw contest and let the kid go first. The kid hit a couple out of 10 or so and proudly handed old man Haskins the ball. After the coach hit his 100th in a row without a miss the kid learned his lesson. Don't argue with the Bear. And learn to shoot free throws.

There isn't a way to leave comments in the Bull Pen (that I've found yet) so please feel free to leave your comments under the latest cartoon that I post.
