Lammys 2012

Champ for the whole year.

I had said that I wasn't going to do this. That wrestling had bored me enough that I didn't feel that I had watched enough to do this. Yet here I am doing this. It the 2012 Lammys highlighting the worse in pro wrestling, this like the Razzies. Without further adieu here we go.

Merry Christmas

It started with a call. A call that changed our destiny. Blitzen's rap change the way people viewed basketball & Christmas.  So began the Santa/Kobe/Lebron vs The Reindeer feud. A feud that tested the united Kobe & LeBron.

With Kobe & Lebron backing him up, Santa countered with a rap of his own. Any belief that Blitzen's rap was ignored was gone. Now the great clash was going to happen. The streetball game of the century was about to begin. 

Now the great clash, it was one for all time. No reindeer were hurt,  


But they were dunked on.

A MWM just for the fun of it.

MSF talks Grizzlies Part 1:

 Last night, the Grizzlies defeated the Chicago Bulls to win their 16th game of the season. The Griz are currently 16-6 & are in 4th place in the Western Conference standings. This is the best opening to a season in Griz history. That is why I have chosen to write this now. While things are going good. While I am not a Grizzlies fan, I am a native Memphian & like many other Memphians who root for different NBA teams, I still keep up with what the Griz are doing. I see major problems with the Griz, today I will write about one of them. I will also give my opinion of what should be done about it. Here is problem one: Rudy Gay. What do I mean when I say that Rudy Gay is a problem. Rudy Gay keeps trying to be the best player on the team, even though he is clearly the third best after Zach Randolph and Marc Gasol. Gay shoots a lot which limits the times the two big men can get the ball on offense. Two years ago, Zach & Marc lead the Griz to a game seven against the Thunder in the second round while Rudy was injured. Last year, the Griz lead by Rudy were eliminated in the first round in a game seven vs the Clippers. During that series when the Griz gave the ball to Marc & Zach, the Griz were clearly better than the Clippers. When they stopped giving the ball to the big men & let Rudy take over, they didn't play well. Zach is a former all-star, Marc was a all-star last year, Rudy has never been an all-star. This year both Marc & Zach have had periods of great play. It also seems, in my opinion that Rudy after seeing this, has decided that he is going to prove that he is the man. This is bad, what is worse is that Grizzlies coach Lionel Hollins seems to be enabling it. I will write about my thoughts on Lionel Hollins in an later post. But what to do about Rudy Gay. I say Trade Him.

 Why should the Griz trade Rudy? Reason 1, because he is overpaid. Yes, I know that Rudy didn't make them offer a max contract but it is still a bad deal. The Griz have three major contracts & only two of them belong to all-star level talent. Reason 2, he is having problems being the 3rd best player. Rudy's attempts to dominate the ball show that he is still trying to be the best player instead of becoming a role player. This is going to cause dysfunction & hurt the team. The Griz are trying to win now, they need to know their roles & anybody who doesn't want to play his role should be forced to do so or traded. Reason 3, Lionel Hollins will not force Rudy to play his role. So management has to force the issue by moving Rudy. Reason 4, Rudy's trade value is high. Rudy is very talented, teams know this. Several teams would like to have him, let them make offers before his values drop. This is something the Griz need to do now or else they will have to do it later.

  This is my opinion, if you agree or if you disagree, please comment below.

How to fix the Lakers

Help! We can't swim, & tell Celine Dion to stop singing!

  The Lakers lost to the Cavaliers tonight. Right now there is a lot of panicking among Laker fans. The Lakers are 9-12 and are the laughing stock of the NBA. Mike D'Antoni's system isn't doing well, the Lakers aren't playing with energy and are playing very poor defense. Something has to be done, the problem is the Lakers have already fired one coach and Phil Jackson would have to be insane to take over now. Plus Steve Nash is a D'Antoni guy and plays well under his system. So D'Antoni should be allow to coach some games with Nash as the point guard. Pau Gasol is also hurt, which makes it really hard to trade him.

  Something has to be done and here is what must be done. Jim Buss must be removed from the decision making position. He is the one who ran off Phil Jackson, hired Mike Brown, then hired D'Antoni in order not to rehire Phil Jackson. I am not a Phil Jackson guy, but he has 11 rings and knows how to turn talented teams into champions. Phil could be the coach now except Buss doesn't like him. So we have to deal with coaches that we aren't sure about. It also should be noted that he hired Brown instead of Brian Shaw, without consulting Kobe in order to establish that he was the Boss. He was also Andrew Bynum biggest supporter and blocked the team from trading him. Once it became clear that they could get Dwight Howard, he finally caved but even then he had to be convinced. This is Jim Buss' team and it is 9-12. It is time for Buss to pay the price. He tried and failed, it's time to let his sister, Jeanie Buss run the team. I am not saying that he should be fired, just transferred to a non basketball related position.

  Also, it is time to trade Pau Gasol while people believe that the injury is the problem. Pau is soft and weak mentally, it is time to trade him before teams figure that out. The Lakers need to trade him while they can still get a starting level player for him.

2012-13 Bowl Game Picks

For reasons that are currently unknown, the New Orleans Hornets will change their name to the New Orleans Pelicans. Beware the Mighty Pelicans, P E Pelicans. HAHAHA This is a look back at some former looks.

Guess who?

Here another hint the answer is after the cut

How to pick the CFB D1A Champion?

 It is that time of the year. The time when the D1 college football champion is chosen in a beauty pageant, uh I mean by using polls. Of course, as you all know we have the BCS "the greatest system of picking champions ever", pick who play in the title game because a tournament would be a bad idea. Why would it be a bad idea, because it would hurt tradition, unlike 40 bowls, having to use 6-7 teams or conference realignment. If you haven't guessed it, I don't like the BCS. A few years ago, this blog started its own National Championship, The MemphisSportsFan National Championship. Here is a list of past champions.

2011-12

Here is how this year's championship will be decided.
