It’s 2:45, I turned my radio and first thing I heard, “THIS TEAM IS INCREDIBLE!” in the familiar, exciting and quality voice that is Tom Hamilton. Now, I’m ready for some Cleveland Indian baseball. All I need is my hot dogs (will be eating them shortly) and to hear Tommy H yell his classic “A [...]

All you Sally’s that picked all four No. 1 seeds to make the Final Four must be as happy as a slippery elephant on Christmas morning. Way to go “out on a limb” and pick the best four teams. I hope you are proud of yourself this morning.
Take out the Davidson-Kansas game and it really [...]

Once again, Seal’s final comment from yesterday’s post has spurred today’s (I was going to do this post anyway but his comment is a good lead). Go Tribe!!! is what he said. Go Tribe indeed. The season opener is just three days away, on Monday, and it promises to be an interesting season. First, why [...]

I feel like dancing like Mark Madsen today. Just yesterday we celebrated Joe Tait for his 3,000th game broadcasting the Cavs and today there is even a bigger reason to party. Today, J Beanie Sports turns one year old. That’s right. It’s the first anniversary for J Beanie.
On this day, one year ago I wrote [...]
Regional Final weekend

I wanted to dive into some Sweet 16 talk this afternoon because I got a special post for tomorrow. On paper the games are should be good ones. I don’t think anything will rival the games from 2005 when three of the four Regional Final games went into overtime, but this has potential to be [...]
WHAM, with the right hand

All fans attending tonight’s game at Quicken Loans Arena between the Cavs and Hornets will receive an old, large, multi- and clashing-colored sweater that has more colors and than a 64 pack of Crayola crayons. That might not be true but it should happen. When you think of Cavs radio play-by-play man Joe Tait, after [...]
I went to a fight and a hockey game broke out

Friday’s NCAA Tournament games were as exciting and entertaining and Thursday’s were bad and boring. But by now you’ve read everything you could have possibly read on the games so I’m going in a different direction. No more college basketball talk with the exception of confessing my love for Dell’s amazing son Stephen Curry.
Saturday night [...]
Day One = not so much fun

What the hell was that? That’s what I looked forward to all year? Where was the excitement? Where was the intrigue? Where were the upsets, the buzzer beaters and the Gus Johnson head exploding moments? Where were the shots that will live in tournament history with the Bryce Drew’s, the Drew Nicholas’, the Tyus Edny’s [...]

We are T-minus 2 hours until the first ball is throw up to start the two greatest days in sports history (and T-minus 4 hours until the first person throws up because his bracket is already screwed). I’m stuck at work but I will be out of here by 3:00. That means I’ll only miss [...]

I wonder if James Anderson picked himself off the floor yet? Akron beat Florida State last night like I said they would. So, I pretty sure James Anderson stopped laughing and rolling around on the dirt floor in his hut, picked himself up off the ground went about his worthless day. I’m also sure the [...]
