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.

Seven years of Lion angst ought to end Now that William Clay Ford has weighed in publicly on the ineptitude of Matt Millen, how long will it take for the Lions to actually do something about it?

Ring it up! Celtics crush Lakers for 17th title There were legendary Celtics sitting in the stands, with names like Russell, Havlicek, Heinsohn, Maxwell, Ainge, and White, who could all tell stories about the days when they touched the NBA championship trophy, sprayed champagne on each other, and watched Red Auerbach proudly puff on a victory cigar. After a 22-year wait that included the retirement of Larry Bird, lots of lean years, and the death of Auerbach, the Celtics have new legends named Pierce, Allen, and Garnett, who now can tell their stories about touching the trophy, spraying champagne, and wishing Red were here to witness it.

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.)

Bo Knows Best ...And if you're wondering whether Bo was scared, hell no, Bo was not scared. Not even when that bear got so close Bo and his hunting companion could see the hairs bolt upright like pine needles on the back of its neck. "I wasn't scared," Bo says. "I wasn't scared because I knew I could outrun my white buddy. You've got to think about these things, man."

"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.
Technical foul called on referee Did an NBA referee bet on games, and make calls affecting the point spreads of those games he worked? The FBI is checking on this one.

Falcons QB Michael Vick Indicted on Federal Charges; somewhat of a surprise, given that two weeks ago, most legal pundits familiar with the case said it was unlikely that Vick would face charges. Vick and three others are charged with violating federal laws against competitive dog fighting, procuring and training pit bulls for it and conducting the enterprise across state lines. The indictment alleges that Vick and his co-defendants began dog fighting in early 2001, the former Virginia Tech star's rookie year with the Falcons.

The best athletes ever, by number. A team of SI.com's finest numerologists crunched the data on jersey numbers to come up with the best performers (across all sports) at each number from 00 to 99 (Eddie Gaedel was a lock at 1/8).

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.
