The last leg of this race to an NBA championship is about to be a collision like one we haven’t seen in awhile. Imagine a big Diesel-powered truck matched up against a quick German sports car. There are two scenarios that could happen here: the BMW takes off and just blows the truck away, because […]

March Madness
March 24, 2006 – 8:00 am
This is definitely my favorite time of year in sports. There truly is nothing like March Madness!! The beauty of sports is reveled in this 64 team, winner-takes-all tournament. It doesn’t matter what school is on the front of your jersey or what your record was before you got there, everyone has the same chance […]
Me and My Coach
March 15, 2006 – 8:00 am
Since I was drafted to Detroit, I have heard from numerous people that I am a replica (but nicer version) of my coach—Bill Laimbeer. As my back to the basket days of college seem a distant memory, I contemplate the question at hand . . “am I the ‘Bill Laimbeer’ of the current Bad Girls […]
Why I Love NBA All-Star
March 4, 2006 – 8:00 am
This is the only weekend that I can walk through the hotel lobby (in heels) and be considered short!! It is also the only time that I don’t have to answer the question, “do you play basketball?” I thought Houston did a great job with the all-star game this year. Although my schedule was a […]
You win some…you lose some
November 15, 2005 – 8:00 am
With sports you have to take the wins with the losses, the good with the bad: so I figured I would do the same as I write for my blog. One of the most frustrating things for an athlete is to underachieve, and that pretty much sums up our season in Detroit as a team […]
So you think you can beat me?
September 24, 2005 – 8:00 am
Athletes love other sports. I must first point out that there is a mutual respect among professional athletes. If I am flipping through the stations and see Andy Roddick in a match–I can appreciate the fact that he is one of the best at what he does. The same goes for Kerri Walsh and Misty […]
NBA Finals: Mr. Flashy vs. Mr. Dependable
June 1, 2005 – 8:00 am
With the NBA Finals once again close to home in Detroit, I had the opportunity to watch my favorite player in person. If you ask a little kid to pick any player in the NBA they wanted to be, odds are Tim Duncan isn’t going to be the first name on their list. They love […]
The Irish: Good or Bad?

The Heat is on
November 15, 2004 – 8:00 am
The one beautiful thing about our off-season is that I get to spend some of it in what I now call home—Miami. I echo the words of Will Smith and everyone else in south florida, as I say “Welcome to Miami (Bienvenido a Miami”) to Shaq Diesel. The Heat had an amazing run to finish […]
