The Loneliest feeling in the world

Fig Jam When Sean O’Hair stepped onto the 18th Tee Box at Bay Hill Country Club on Sunday, he was tied for 1st place.  He was where every golfer with aspirations of greatness would want to be:  on the 72nd hole of a PGA tour event with a share of the lead.  The chance to grasp victory was...

From Wazzu to Wahoo… Bennett proves what Huskies have said for years

March 30, 2009
By Fig Jam

Fig Jam Namely:  WSU is train station, not a destination.  Tony Bennett has left WSU for…. Virginia (of all places) and has left an angry Cougar populace spewing chewing tobacco all over the place.  The Bennett family has done wonders for the WSU basketball program but today is not the day to argue that they deserve...

Kentucky Basketball: What’s wrong with pride?

Constable Echelon This started as a comment on Fig Jam’s excellent post regarding the Kentucky coaching situation, but I decided it could use its own post. My poor paraphrase of Fig Jam’s post (just read it, he says it better than me) is that Kentucky had no business firing Tubby Smith because he was...

Kentucky Basketball: Arrogant, Irrelevant

March 27, 2009
By Fig Jam

Fig Jam So Billy Gillespie got fired.  So what? Two seasons ago, when Tubby Smith was forced out at Kentucky, the momentum behind the ouster was that Kentucky was a better program than the results they were getting under Smith.  Sure Smith had led the Wildcats to a National Championship and took the team to the...

Almost five months after Seattle’s beloved “Tuba Man” died from a street beating by marauding teens, no one has been charged in his slaying. Two teens charged in connection with the attack on Ed McMichael and a third who had been implicated have been released...
