After today's game, C.J. (F Bomb) Leslie is not only not ready for the NBA, but he's also barely good enough to play for State. If he goes pro after this year the only league he will be playing in next year starts with the 4th letter of the alphabet.
He is a whiny little child, that when he starts a game bad, you know its going to do nothing but go down hill from there.
Lets also give a big wolkpack thanks to Richard Howell for his awful play yesterday and getting in foul trouble. I especially liked the foul he commited 35 ft from the basket, chasing around Florida States point guard (can we say this team is a little undisciplined).
The combined stat line for Howell and Leslie yesterday was 5-11 shooting and a game changing 5-13 from the free throw line (they lost by 4).
So unless Maryland beats Virginia on the road, (Virginia is 8-0 at home in ACC play this year) NC State which was ranked 6th in the country to start the year, will be playing in the thursday play in games, to get to the quarter finals. Just a tidbit no team has ever won four games in four days in ACC tournament history.
I know there going to make the NCAA tournament no matter what happens in the ACC tournament, but I gotta tell you yesterday was one hell of a disappointing game, that they should of won......

SAN FRAN FAVORED BY 4, TAKE THE RAVENS AND THE POINTS
Super Bowl Sunday is here, with the 49ers vs the Ravens. This game has one of the closet point spreads (4) in a long time.
My take on the game comes down to, can the Ravens front seven stop Colin Kaepernick from running (not passing the footall) and keep him in the pocket. If he does get out of the pocket like he did against Green Bay, look out its gonna get ugly.
I beleive Baltimore's front seven will not let him out of the pocket with blitzes and the linebackers like (Ray Lewis) watching his every move.
My prediction: Take the Ravens and the points and watch Flacco have a field day passing the football against the San Francisco defense..........

ALABAMA PLUS 9.5 OVER THE IRISH, I DON'T THINK SO.
The fighting Irish of Notre Dame can win this game tonight against Alabama if they do one thing. "STOP THE RUN". The Crimson Tides offense will not pass the ball tonight untill Notre Dame shows they can handle Alabama's massive ofensive line, by putting 8 in the box and playing man to man on the outside.
The point spread dictates vegas doesn't think Notre Dame can stop the Tides running game, but I believe they can because of two things, Notre Dame's size at defensive tackle (around 320) and that "DUDE named Manti, lol.
For the Irish to win Tonight, Manti Te'o has to make plays in the runnig game and get to the quarterback in the passing game (at least 10 tackles or more, plus a sack or two).
Lets not forget the Irish offense, led by all everything, RG111 clone, Everett Golson. He's the perfect QB to play against Alabama, because of his ability to both run it and pass it and keep the Crimson Tide offense off the field.
My Take..... Alabama plays close games against good teams with there grinding style, so look for this to be a tight one and hope the Irish can pull out a close one at the end. Bottom line, take Notre Dame and the 9.5 points and enjoy what should be one of the best championship games of all time.
GO IRISH!!!

Sonny Dykes to be next NC State football Coach?
If Sonny Dykes becomes the next head coach at NC State, get ready for a lot offense and some fun and gun.
Dykes, the head coach at La tech, a member of the wac conference has either lead the nation in scoring (2012) or been near the top in the last two years he's been at Tech.
If you like offense and just enough defense, (they gave up 38 points a game this year) this guys "Air Raid Offense" meaning, play fast and throw it 40-50 times a game, should bring excitement and sold out games to Carter Finley Stadium.
This also will not let opposing defenses make changes personel wise because of the this up tempo style of attack.
Lets hope Debbie Yow can make this hire happen, and will all be saying Tom Obrien who!!!
Stay tuned.......

JEREMY LIN WANTED TO STAY WITH THE KNICKS!!!. THAT'S COMPLETE B.S.
Jeremy Lin is either naive or slow. The Rockets wrote that contract specifically with the big third year, knowing full well that would put the knicks wayyyy above the luxury tax and he knew it.
That was the only way the Rockets would write a contract with him, because they knew the knicks would match the 25 million if it was spread out evenly over three years. He's full of you know what. (HOW DO YOU SAY THAT IN CHINESE LOL...).
Kudos to the Rockets brass for coming up with this contract and stealing Lin from the Knicks.......

THE CHICAGO BEARS AND MATT FORTE CONTRACT SITUATION, LET'S MEET IN THE MIDDLE FELLAS!!!
The Chicago Bears make a good point concerning Matt Forte and a long term contract. The life of a running back in the NFL is short and your coming off a knee injury (a season ending strained mcl). Matt Forte and his agent say he's completely healthy, has averaged over 1000 yards per season, (4233) over his four year career and is considered one of the best receivers out of the backfield in the league.The answer is clear for both Da Bears, (had to work that in at some point) and Forte, "MEET IN THE MIDDLE".
It is easy to see what Forte wants, two comparable Backs, Philadelphia's LeShon McCoy (6 yrs 45.6 million with 20.7 million in guarantees) and Houston's Arian Foster (5 yrs 43.5 million contract with 20.75 million in guarantees) are comparable to his talent and numbers, but the reality is neither of these guys are comming off knee injuries and unfortunately for Matt, this is a business.
From the Bears side of it, they know they need to get something done to keep there top offensive weapon on the field long term and eliminate a huge distraction during training camp, plus making the Bears faithful happy in 2012.
Bottom line, look for the Bears and Forte to reach a deal somewhere in the mid 30 million range over 5 years, with 18 to 20 million guaranteed. This should make both sides happy and lets hope if your a Bears fan we don't hear the words mcl injury and Forte in the same sentence ever again....
Have a happy and safe 4th of July everyone

WATCH OUT BELOW HERE COMES THE PIANO OFF LEBRON'S BACK!!!
Miami wins the NBA titile and Lebron James can go back to his original playing weight of 250 pounds. Why you say, because after nine years, three NBA finals, a shit load of hype and even more criticism, LB can finally call himself NBA champion and throw that big wurlitzer off his back.
The main reason he can call himself NBA champion is for one reason, (HE DIDN'T CHOKE IN THE FINALS THIS TIME!!!). What he did was be a leader and play like a champion.
He hit the biggest three of his life (ala Michael Jordan) in game six while cramping up big time, and in game seven all he had was a triple double and controlled the game at both ends of the floor.
Combine that with 20 points from Dwayne Wade and a spectacular 23 points from Mike Miller including 7 three pointers while barely being able to walk.
So whats next for Lebron and company, well I guess its on to winning not 2 not 3 not 4 not 7 more championships to try to back up that rant he had back after he signed with the Heat.......(I doubt it).
PS. lets give a shout out to Juwan Howard for being the first Michigan fab five member to win any kind of championship. Sure it took 20 years but who's counting.......

WITH ROSE TEARING HIS THORN (AKA HIS ACL), "LEBRON" YOU HAVE NO EXCUSES AND MUST WIN THE NBA TITLE
When Lebron James said, not 1 not 2 not 6 not 7 championships, and made a arrss out of himself, you knew the critics would roast him after they lost in the finals to the Dallas Mavericks in June of last year.
One writer, Jason Whitlock (Fox Sports) suggested they break up the Heat. That of course is never gonna happen. thats a joke, the Heat went from no playoffs, ("PLAYOFFS, DON'T TALK ABOUT PLAYOFFS") to within 2 games of the NBA championship, plus every game is sold out, to go along with record merchandise sales, your dreaming Jason about that happening anytime soon.
Who's left in the East: Boston's to old, Indiana is to young (watch out for them next year), Philly couldn't beat Miami if the Heat gave them a 10 point lead to start every game, so the eastern conference should be a cakewalk.
The best of the west: San Antonio looks strong as usual, but the team that's coming out the western conference is..........wait for it.........the Oklahoma City thunder. With The dynamic duo of Kevin Durant and Russell Westbrook, to go along with sixth man of the James Harden, OKC should be able to hold of the Spurs and get to their first NBA finals.
Bottom line: To put it mildly, if the big three and the Heat can't beat a young OKC team in the finals this year, it would have to be because of another Lebron choke, or a Wade injury. Prediction: Heat in 6 and James throws the piano and the criticism off his back. (Get ready South Beach to get your championship party on).
