There is good basketball in the San Gabriel Valley. Sometimes you just have to look. I saw a good one Friday night at St. Francis High School. Covina, who finished in a three way tie for first in the Valle Vista went into Golden Knights territory and beat them on their own turf.

They don’t believe in playing defense in the Pro Bowl. It’s either that or the Lakers-T-Wolves. Wow what a bad Sunday night for sports.
Hey what do you know? The Lakers actually won a road game. They beat the powerful Timberwolves by five points! When’s the parade?
It’s funny to listen to all the talking heads [...]

Notes and observations from Christmas Weekend 2011:
It feels strange to have a Sunday in December with just one NFL Game. With Christmas falling on a Sunday all of the games were moved to Saturday the 24th leaving Green Bay and Chicago with the spotlight all to themselves on Sunday night.
It looks like that loss [...]

It’s been a memorable week in sports – especially here in Southern California. And no I’m not talking about the Dodgers signing of Aaron Harang. There was the CIF Finals in the Mid-Valley and Southeast Divisions, big news out of Anaheim, and Los Angeles and there is a new chief in Westwood.  
At USC [...]

Mike Brown will be fine for Lakers
Contrary to popular opinion I don’t have a problem with the Lakers hiring Mike Brown. Listening to the reaction this week after the Lakers announced that Brown would be the new coach; you would have thought they hired Bobby Brown.
“Worst hire ever!” screamed one talk radio caller. “Absolutely [...]

Yes I did watch the entire Laker game on Sunday. I’m also into caning, flogging, electric shock and Chinese water torture. It was ugly – one of the ugliest losses in Laker playoff history, along with game six at Boston in the 2008 Finals.  
Interesting Facebook post by Mid Valley Staffer George Hernandez Sunday. Big George, [...]

The Memphis Grizzlies won a playoff series? What’s next? The Washington Generals beat the Harlem Globetrotters? The Clippers win the NBA title? Some things just aren’t supposed to happen.
When of the think of the Grizzlies I think of Vancouver, Brian Winters and Big Country Reeves. I think of Brian Hill and Shareef Abdur-Rahim. I [...]
