Whoa, hold on there! When did I say any of that? To ask the question doesn't necessarily mean that I feel all football players are engaged in violent acts. Relax there. I'm utilizing the examples of players that are violent in the NFL (portrayed by the media & spoken to be true with their own...

Oh, man I loved Xena. You know what beat Xena though? Buffy The Vampire Slayer. I almost died when I saw that Netflix put the entire series up. I love that show. Watching it now really reminds me of the times I watched it when I was younger. Buffy does that for me as well as X-Files, Monsters, &...

Currently biking is a huge passion of mine. Luckily I live in a place where they're making strides to make biking in the city easier. I can bike for hours on end. No, I do not call it cycling. People who call it cycling as usually the one's with aerodynamic helmets & tight shorts in the winter...

Not as often as basketball but I play: American Football Rugby Softball Volleyball

Well, the cheaper option is staying at home. There have been occasions where I went to a game & wished I had stayed home but that really had to do with seating & the place being packed to the rafters. I'd rather watch a basketball game at home. I'd rather watch a football game live.

I get immensely tired of teams spending money on one player & then complaining left & right about the expectations said player failed to meet. Try evenly distributing the funds to build a team instead of buying a team. That's why I hate the Yankees. Build a team!

Honestly, where does it stop? What stops the NBA from dealing with the parents contractually at 17 after that? When did Kobe get drafted again???

Come on you guys, really??? White Men Can't Jump. Hands down greatest next to He Got Game. Above The Rim is a close third & I give props to Basketball Diaries for having an edge.

Since the dawn of time there has been only one team. One team to rule them all. For you see, without this team who among us knows where the God of basketball would have ended up? That team is the Chicago Bulls. Even through their worst I was there. I was a girl growing up in a garbage place...

I never really considered Lin to be that great a player in the first place. I think he had an amazing season that one time people seemed to care about him but overall? Nah. I think it's too easy to compare him to Bryant. He's old & he knows it. Bryant in his prime wouldn't even be in the same...

I loved Hang Time! I loved NBA Jam! Sure it lacked a lot of the nuances the 2K series has going for it. It lacked the realism. What it didn't lack? The fun. I don't see why the NBA couldn't come up with a graphically superior game that harkens back to the times where you could name your player...

How many ridiculous dunks over cars do you see during halftime at any WNBA event? In fact, it's immensely rare to see A dunk let alone a fantastic one. There's little showmanship. That's the reason I don't watch. It has nothing to do with the fact that they have ovaries. I shouldn't, as a...

Lebron cannot carry the weight of the team alone. It seemed like they forced him to that before in Cleveland & we saw how that worked out. Once he moved to a team that was a cohesive one he brought championships. Build a team around his abilities don't just rely on them.

The rules are getting ridiculous. I feel like every new season I have to familiarize myself with 'rules to make our players safe'. Excessive celebrating? Who in the world are you making safe the fans viewing running backs who cannot dance? I get it. No one wants to be responsible for...

These games remind me of the Pro Bowl for the NFL. Everyone is more concerned about getting hurt than playing a real game. Now, they could easily fix that probably by telling them how they play in the All Star game will affect the amount their contract is negotiated for the next year. Money...
