Could Curry Actually Become President?

Back in March, Golden Warriors living legend Stephen Curry said he’d consider politics — along with professional golf — among his post-NBA aspirations. ‘Politcs’? That could mean anything. City councilman. Governor. Senator. And yes, President of the United States. No, Curry didn’t specifically mention the White House. But even if he did, would it really be that far-fetched? I mean, no one probably thought Donald … Continue reading Could Curry Actually Become President?

A QB Will Win the Heisman — Make Your Peace with It

Don’t be contrarian about this. Only three non-quarterbacks have won the Heisman Trophy in the past 18 years, and those ‘other’ players all played for Alabama. That’s just the way it is now.

With that settled, … Continue reading A QB Will Win the Heisman — Make Your Peace with It

AL Can’t Seem to Find Its Salami

Clearing the bases. The four-run homer. The grand salami. Those are cute ways of referring to grand slams. In 2024, the National League has been able to reference them a lot, but the American League? Not so much. With about two-thirds of the season behind us, the NL is on pace to potentially break its single-season high of 90 slams set in 2021. The AL, … Continue reading AL Can’t Seem to Find Its Salami

The Real Dream Team? 2024, not 1992

Still shocking to realize that USC, UCLA, Washington and Oregon will be hitting shoulder pads with the likes of Ohio State and Michigan in the Big Ten. Many Pac-12 fans hate it, understandably. But this could be the best chance for a West Coast team to win a national championship for the first time … Continue reading Still Sad About the Demise of the Pac-12? Don’t Be
