Candace Parker Dunks As Sparks Top Fever: ESPN.COM:Candace Parker had dunked in college, and she finally broke out the big move in the WNBA. The Sparks' star slammed one home with 33 seconds left in Los Angeles' 77-63 win over Indiana on Sunday. I love to watch this sport, but unfortunately we will have to see alot more of this if the WNBA is to survive.

Good riddance!: Personally, I saw all I needed to see of Les Miles in his hastily called news conference Saturday. He affected a barking, angry tone, hands by his hips, at one point tugging emphatically on his sports coat.

If you blame Kroenke Sports, then you can blame the lakers for letting a "Beat Up", Houston team (missing its two best players) take them to seven games. All the planets had to line up for this to happen, & I think the NBA can move that game back and everyone would be happy.

"I know I'm in the minority, but I would have liked to see Mike Patrick, Paul Maguire and Joe Theismann doing these games. They called the Sunday night games on ESPN in a way that put themselves secondary to the game. I enjoyed that better than the way they treat MNF and NBC's Sunday games like a spectacle of monumental proportions."
I agree 100% rcade, I wish they would stop trying to turn football into "Reality TV!" If the game itself is not enough draw for the big networks, then I'll gladly watch on an obscure cable channel. I may have to turn the volume off and turn on the radio.

I am a life long Michigan native, and the way I see it is as long as they keep packing the seats full every sunday nothing will change. Hell the old Silver Dome sold out 80,000 every sunday! We have got to stop buying tickets!!!!! Until we see empty seats at Ford Field, nothing will ever change.

I keep waiting for this "Western Domination" over the east that the media has been telling me about for years! They rack up alot of regular season wins and they score alot of points, but when it comes down to it (exeption S.A.), they don't compare on defence with the playoff teams of the east. I don't know why Boston seemed like the underdog, but I'm am glad they won the way they did! (Oh,...& Dumars ain't done yet.)

"Anyone who could hire Sampson probably has the stomach to hire Isaiah." I may sound crazy, but I think that maybe Isaiah could coach players that would listen, and play as a team.

"what if......... what if...... what if..............." What if my child-hood favorite NFL team could have somehow talked Bo into playing only football (my favorite sport) Who Knows, they still could be talking about the only NFL team that won championships in every decade since its birth.

Why are we clogging up our judicial system & jail space for stuff like this don't we have bigger priority's in this country. Why is congress involved? Its what sports demands, bigger, stronger athletes. No one man is responsible for this.......everyone is. You can't put this entire era of abuse on B.B.

Boy I wish they would stop ruining football by making it less & less about the game,IE (the superbowl) just to market it to people who could care less about sports. To people who love sports, the game is the entertainement. I want people that are genius's of the game,(Jaw's/Thiesman, etc...) and people that are play by play experts. PLEASE keep your: comedians, tabloid B.S., MTV and & most of all keep politics out of the game I used to love.

Orlando Magic Take 3-1 Series Lead Over Cleveland Cavaliers
I would love to see Orlando VS Denver in the finals! I know the league, the networks, Vegas, & "Band Wagon fans" everywere would be hurt, but the NBA needs to be more about the game & less about the hype and the money. It would be a nice change.
