During the NBA playoffs many teams that did not make the playoffs play a game of coaching roulette. Some bet it all and miss (Jason Kidd's stint in New York) and some bet on proven winners. You always bet Red everyone knows that. Coach Thibodeau (Thibs) did a ton of great work in Chicago taking... Continue Reading →
The Pop Culture of Sports
Instead of getting real serious about certain sports like baseball, basketball, football, or whatever else is out there we are going to try to keep this a lighter discussion.
