Hansbrough Sporting News National Player Of The Year


First off I want to congratulate Tyler Hansbrough on his amazing career thus far. His jersey will soon be up there with Jordan's, Jamison's, and the other UNC greats. The junior was honored as national player of the year by Sporting News on Tuesday, ensuring he will become just the eighth Tar Heel to have his number retired. He has been everything a Tar Heel fan like myself could ask for. His hustle, passion, and hard work is absolutely remarkable. I have never seen a player of his talent level hustle and work as hard as he does. He leaves everything on the floor every time he steps foot on it. How anyone could not appreciate him is astonishing to me. Not only is he supremely talented, he does everything he can to make sure the team gets the win. In this day and age that is extremely rare. You can have your Kevin Durants and Michael Beasleys all day, give me Tyler Hansbrough. He is a true leader and knows how to win. Thanks Tyler for all you have done for the Tar Heel Nation, you are certainly one of the greatest of all-time.

Short Stay For Tennessee


A day after being tabbed numero uno in both the AP and USA Today college basketball polls, Tennessee lost to #14 Vanderbilt 72-69 on Tuesday night. Tennessee came in after the big win over previous #1 Memphis. Tennessee looked flat, and completely out of sync. Tonight I realized what a awful gym Vanderbilt has. The fans are too far away from the court and the benches are on the baselines instead of the sideline. This is absolutely absurd, the coaches are unable to communicate with the players when they are on the opposite side of the court and is just not logical. Who designed this gym and what were they thinking? The fans are 25 yards from the court! VANDY PLEASE GET A NEW GYM !

Come Witness History

Tonight at 9:50 at the Ark me and my intramural teammates will try to avenge a 2 point loss from last week. I was unable to attend last weeks game due to prior commitments but the team held strong and competed well coming up just short of a victory, with only 5 players and against the team leading our division. So tonight I look for a solid performance and of course a Go Go Gadget Victory. I should be rested seeing that its been two weeks since my last game (a 104-13 rout i must add). Tonight should be nothing short of greatness, I'm going to say a 95-34 victory for the good guys. Also anyone wanting to witness intramural history come watch our game tonight, as I'm going to get the single game scoring record TONIGHT yes yes I said it INTRAMURAL SCORING RECORD IS MINE! I'm going to say around 65 tonight. So consider yourself warned.

Trash Talkin'

Steve Nash has never been associated with talking a little trash but he is now. His new signature shoe, "Trash Talk" is made from "trash", well the scraps left from shoe manufacturing.
