Heated Question...

I'm not really a fan of the Miami Heat. Now, before you discredit me as a hater or whatever new term you have out there, let me explain.

The Big 3 of Miami are TALENTED! I would never take that away from them. But that for me seems to be all there is. I get the feeling that Miami knows they're talented and rely on that too much. There are times when fight and grittiness wins a game. Yes, there are times when Miami gives shutdown and cutthroat defense. They doesn't seem to be the case to me most of the time. There's no hunger to me! It feels like they expect a championship to fall right into their lap. It doesn't happen like that. If you aren't able to be clutch when it counts and show up ready to fight, then an NBA championship isn't for you. Until the Heat figures that out, this new line-up will be without rings.

Breaking News: NFL hires first female coach....well, sort of

I have received  this link  from numerous friends and cohorts, with all of the well meaning intentions possible. You see, I am currently a doctoral student in sport management at THE GREATEST UNIVERSITY, with a focus on uncovering why there is such a severe lack of underrepresentation of Black women in athletic administration. While my particular focus is on women of color, mainly due to the fact that there is a lack of research on this population, I am always excited to hear about women in general that are 'moving the needle'. Over the summer I was excited to hear about Jen Welter  being hired by the Arizona Cardinals.  A woman on the sidelines?  Working with linebackers? WHOA! And then...I actually read the article.  Coach Welter was only hired on a temporary basis. She was an intern during preseason and training camp. As is also the case with Coach Kathryn Smith, who was hired in as the Quality Control-Special Teams Coach (QCC). I must admit, that even...

And So It begins...

Michigan vs. Alabama Go Blue!! I'm so ready! Are you??

Hit Felt Around The World

It reigned in the number one spot on SportsCenter for over 40 weeks. It hurt Wolverines to the core every time it was replayed. It solidified Clowney as a top draft pick. It is The Hit. I watched this game and The Hit was nothing short of amazing. The way Clowney hit Vincent Smith, the way he scooped up the ball with one hand and then attempted to run it back for a TD.  I'm still amazed that Vincent Smith was able to get up after that.  Personally, I thought I he was dead. Not even joking!
