The Peterson Principle 1/28/13

Tim Peterson
I found myself rooting for the Boston Celtics Sunday. It felt kind of strange but I believe I’ve hit LeBron overload. He got his championship last year and now everybody proclaims him to be the best basketball player on the planet…ever.
When he hit the three pointer in regulation it killed me but when he [...]

Ok so we can all start the chant now…OKC! OKC! OKC!
This is the best NBA Finals we could have hoped for. If you love LeBron James than you have a chance to see him win his first NBA title. If you hate him then what better place to see him lose than in the [...]

The Peterson Principle 4/16/12

There are a lot of surprising things that have happened on the sporting scene in the last week. The Lakers have gone 4-1 without Kobe Bryant, the Kings have jumped out to a 3-0 series lead on Vancouver and the Dodgers are off to a 9-1 start to open the 2012 season.
But the most shocking [...]

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.
Nino [...]

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 [...]

3.) Minnesota’s Adrian Peterson, who tore his ACL and MCL, is hoping to be play again by opening day in 2012.

The Peterson Principle 12/26/11

Tim Peterson
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 [...]

The Peterson Principle 6/21/11

LeBron James didn't stand up to Dallas in the NBA Finals
They declared it LeBron James Day in Dallas. Everybody got off work 12 minutes early.   
It wasn’t the missed shots, number of rebounds or points in the paint that bothered me about LeBron James in the NBA Finals. Even his comments about the fans that criticized [...]
