NBA Fashion Fever moved to the media world? No bueno! By now we’ve all seen Dwyane Wade’s notorious “European style” suits he’s been wearing to the arenas (which, by the way,  is still NOT cool by us Americans), but now it’s become infectious. Mike and Mike’s Mike Greenberg said...

Last month, Thomas Golianopoulos of Grantland wrote a revealing piece titled “The Secret History of Kobe Bryant’s Rap Career,” in which we found out that Kobe’s pursuit as a rapper was more serious than any basketball-turned-rapper foray we’ve ever made fun of. Among the...

You know, I grew up on basketball that was played in the paint. As a youngster, big men roamed the earth and battled down low like real men are supposed to. Patrick Ewing, David Robinson, Hakeem Olajuwon and Shaq, to name several. Karl Malone, Charles Barkley, Tim Duncan and others were power forwards...

I was that kid. I was the kid that jumped at the opportunity to not only see my favorite ballplayers, but to actually meet them as well. See, I came to age in the early 90’s, when being a young black kid meant having no shortage of stars that we could relate to. From Ken Griffey Jr. and Frank Thomas...

There were a lotta sad souls on the recent edition of the UC Show. However, they still gave us quality insight, starting with Till. The man called in to give us some analysis on what is ailing the New York Knicks against the Indiana Pacers. He was pretty much impossible to rattle, which is a testament...

The legend of Wilt Chamberlain is widely known amongst any level of sports fans. From the diehard to your grandmama, there is at  least some small bit of knowledge that one will have about the man affectionately known as “Wilt The Stilt.” However, sometimes the internet has a way of digging...

This is a tantalizing look at the employment struggle of black men, whether it be a law graduate or a head coach looking for work in the NFL. If potential racism, white favoritism and the acknowledgment of unfairness make you uncomfortable … just keep reading. A little discomfort never hurt anybody. Let’s...

If you looked at the 2011-12 and 2012-13 NBA seasons in a vacuum, you’d swear on your life that LeBron James was the greatest basketball player and leader the game has seen since the days of Michael Jordan and the Miami Heat the most formidable collection of talent since the dynastic teams of...

On April 24, 2011 – my 24th birthday – the Philadelphia Flyers gave me a gift. A 5-4 win over Buffalo sent the teams’ first-round playoff series to a seventh game. Rooting interest didn’t make the win gift-worthy. At that point – like now – the winner was of little significance. Game 6’s...

Athletes are slaves to the rules of their sport. Jordan, Ali, Ruth or any other all-time sports great must master the basic skills that make up that sport. They are also, usually, able to ride the edge of the rules, whenever necessary, to come out victorious. But regardless of the competition, sport...

There’s no way know for sure if Titus Young Sr. hit rock bottom within the past seven days or so, but he’s at least standing on the doorstep. In less than a week’s time, the former Boise State and Detroit Lions wideout was arrested for a DUI, released, arrested again for attempting...
