Oh man, so I bet that you didn’t know that before there was Degeneration X, there was The Clique! The group included Shawn Michaels a.k.a. the HBK, Kevin Nash, Paul Levesque (HHH), Scott Hall (Razor Ramon) and Sean Waltman (X-Pac).

All I’ve got to say is, they don’t make ‘em like this anymore.

So, we are full swing into the U.S. Open, already to the quarter-finals. I was looking to purchase tickets a few weeks ago (when there were still some priced at $20-$30), but as the tournament got underway, ticket prices rocketed.

Still, watching from home is quite exciting. Hopefully, Roddick starts shaping up against Nadal. It’s starting to get a bit boring seeing Nadal in the finals all of the time…He just doesn’t strike me as an engaging or emotionally charged player. I suppose that some would call this an advantage, but it’s almost to the point where he seems completely disinterested. 

Right now, Rusty is cheering for Rafa and Djo…as you know, I’m still a Federer supporter. And with Rafa fainting and getting leg cramps here and there…it’s anyone’s title! Hopefully we can get tickets next year. 

Here’s to the gentleman’s sport!

So where was I when Landry Fields was passing out speed dating invitations?

At least when the Knicks aren’t winning, they still know how to have decent fun off court. It’s great to see players that still have a very humble attitude, not letting the fame destroy their youth or dedication to their team…or to basketball in general, for that matter.

Here’s to wishing our rookies long and successful careers in the NBA.

Who’s going to make it to the NBA finals this year?
Rats if I know, I think it’s still too early to tell. The Lakers are just getting into their end-of-the season groove, and some teams, like the Knicks, are still playing in this unpredictable pattern (i.e. beating teams like the Miami Heat and then losing to teams like the Pistons, and for some reason not finding the need to sink frees, make threes, or play any defense).
But you know what I do know? Whoever makes it to the finals, I’ll be cheering them on in style, thanks to affordable NBA apparel now available at Forever 21 and Old Navy!

Come on Knicks!
What ever happened to playing defense? What ever happened to scoring three-pointers? These are looking like the same old Knicks that lack confidence through games that should be easy to win.

The Knicks have always had the tendency of winning against top contending teams and then literally dropping the ball when it comes to stepping stone games, like tonight’s. 

I’m just disappointed because Rusty and I probably won’t be able to score tickets to another game this season. And I still believe that in games like tonight’s, Gallinari would have come through in the pinch and really helped us out…unlike Mr.Ego, Carmelo Anthony. Anthony may have scored 25 points tonight, but more than 50% of those were in the first quarter alone, meaning that he was a ghost for the rest of the night.

To be a New York sports fan…it’s grueling.

The ‘Melo-drama’ is over and it has possibly resulted in the worst NBA trade ever.Wilson Chandler, gone.Danilo Gallinari, gone.Raymond Felton, gone.Timofey Mozgov, gone.First-round pick in 2014 and $3 million cash, gone.For who? Carmelo Anthony, Chauncey Billups, Shelden Williams, Anthony Carter and Renaldo Balkman…Who are these people?While ticket prices for Knicks games are rising as we gripe or grin about the trade, I believe that the headache has only just begun. We’ve just traded all of our promising young talent, with the exception of Landry Fields, for yesterday’s superstars.We’ll see how the Knicks compete for the rest of the season and then I’ll let you know how I feel about this trade. The fact of the matter is, Anthony would have come to New York when his contract in Denver was up because he wants to be closer to his hometown and his wifey, Lala. So was this over the top trade really necessary?I think not!Benovic Bradley

It’s been an All-Star weekend.

Last night, Blake Griffin soared across a 2011 Kia Optima and dunked a ball passed to him through the car’s sunroof by his Clippers teammate, Baron Davis.
The dunk earned L.A.’s rising star first place in the contest.

While Griffin’s show was certainly entertaining, I’m not sure that he was the best dunker out there. Serge Ibaka and Javale McGee were pulling off some impressive dunks as well, but with his hometown cheering him on, I guess there probably would have been a riot if Griffin hadn’t been dubbed as the champ.

Coming up tonight is the East vs. West All-Star game. The roster is really exciting, and with Yao Ming out of the picture, I’m not sure how the East could lose (as long as Griffin and Durant stay out of our way). It’ll also be interesting to see how Stoudemire, Wade, James and Rajon Rondo play together.
