It was an ugliest of games for the team in the prettiest of cities. After winning 11 straight games to finish the regular season, the San Diego Chargers came out with a resounding thud at home against the Jets on Sunday. Penalties, missed field goals and turnovers formed a perfect storm of suck for the Chargers and kept the Jets in the game until the final quarter where they took and held onto the lead to advance to the AFC championship game with a 17-14 victory.

So, rumor has it online sports betting used to be really sweet; I heard pinnaclesports was an excellent, reputable site until the US cracked down on this alleged integrity issue. An article I read points to a 1999 study that over $380 billion is illegally wagered on betting. Now, I am not an advocate of; well, if society does it.. then it must be right. Because usually, I think people are pretty stupid, especially society. However, this seems harmless to me because the money can be used in so many ways. Think of all the tax money and money, in general, the state and the US can collect, insane. Anyway, it appears sports betting is only allowed in several states where it was legal before a certain law was passed.

It's nice to see Ol' Roy back, and it's even nicer to ponder that Houston dodged a bullet by keeping him instead of trading him.
How did Oswalt do today against the top team in baseball? Against the Chicago Cubs, Oswalt pitched nearly a complete game--going 8.1 innings and giving up four hits, no runs and striking out three. He's a 3.91 on what has definitely been an off-season. Amazingly, he's now 13-9 on the season. If not for his struggles, he might've won 20 games.

Pau Gasol is seven feet tall but he just got taller in my eyes.
Gasol and his teammates on Spain's Olympic team was put in an embarassing position this week of having to explain why they agreed to pose for an advertisement that reflected a racist tone.

Bobby Knight’s coaching legacy is undeniable. Last year, he became the winningest coach in college basketball history. He has led three University of Indiana teams to national titles. In 1975-76, he coached the last team to go undefeated for an entire season, an effort that seems more and more unattainable with time. Dating back to his first years coaching at Army in the 1960s, Knight has won an astonishing 71% of the games he has coached. In his over forty years of coaching at the highly competitive college level, the man known as ‘The General’ has won nearly 900 contests and his graduation rate is as high as anyone’s in the NCAA. He is a three-time national coach of the year and at a six-time Big Ten coach of the year. Needless to say, his resume speaks for itself.

3/12 PICKS OF THE DAY
Championship week is amongst. We got some hot ones for Wednesday's full card of conference tourney play. Here are our top NCAA Hoops Picks...
1. Arizona (-19.5) over Oregon State: The number isn't high. It's actually lower than expected. Pac-10 tourney, bright lights, Staples Center...UofA should be up by 20 by the half.

I have been waiting for a few weeks now and I still have a few more weeks to wait. It can't come soon enough, I am counting down the days. Memphis-Tennessee was a nice game to help hold me over but I am starting to get ancy. The regular season gets a little boring at times but once March comes, all is forgiven. We are now less then 3 weeks away until Selection Sunday and only 15 days away from the beginning of the major conference tournaments kicking off. It is almost that time again and you have no idea how excited I am.
