I just found this gem on youtube, and I don't think I've ever seen this before on BN. It's Kevin Love throwing it down for a SICK dunk following a steal, and throwing down the rim and backboard as well. I especially enjoy his expression right after the dunk - I can imagine him just thinking, "whoa."

Looks like this took place at Putnam HS exactly one year ago. January 12th is a good day for Kevin Love. Awesome victory vs. WSU today! Hopefully the NCAA will drop the hammer on bushgate soon and we demolish the trOJans next week. Before the season began, I knew deep down that OJ Mayo's arrival wouldn't make much of an impact for suc. It's just a gut feeling I have... UCLA's performance exudes substance, while suc always seems to be hanging on by a thread.

And sadly, the Jags lost today. I only mention this because I still haven't reached the 200 words required for a post. Man, the Patriots just seem to be able to move the ball down at will.

The Lakers are also doing surprising well this season. I'm glad Trevor Ariza came back home to LA. I sure hope Boston doesn't pull off a Red Socks - Celtics - Patriots Triple Championship this year...

GO BRUINS!

We have been waiting and fighting for nearly four years now. Urging on our fellow bruins to see kd for who he really is - a nincompoop of a coach.

Serious HT to Nestor & other Trojan killing Greek generals & kings, 66, Fox, Bruincore, and the entirety of the Bruins Nation that have been fighting for what everyone else is finally only beginning to see. I've been trying to convince everyone I meet that Karl Dorrell, head coach, is the antithesis of the very essence of UCLA. And now there is no more convincing to be done. Some very promising news from the fishwrap.

THANK YOU ALL FOR YOUR HARD WORK.
Now all that's left is to pick up a real coach.
This news really takes any of the sting away from this weekend. completely.

GO BRUINS. GO BRUINS. GO BRUINS. GO BRUINS. GO BRUINS. GO BRUINS. GO BRUINS. GO BRUINS. GO BRUINS. GO BRUINS. GO BRUINS. GO BRUINS. GO BRUINS. GO BRUINS. GO BRUINS. GO BRUINS. GO BRUINS. GO BRUINS.

Yahoo! Sports is now my new favorite source for sports online (whereas ESPN and LA Times, I don't even bother to glance at anymore - look all over BN to see some reasons why).

Yahoo! has made a formal web page dedicated to the investigation on Bushgate, which until now the rest of the MSM has failed to follow up on or investigate themselves:

While the rest of the national media was having frenzied spasms over Southern Cal's 04-06 pseudo-professional team, Yahoo! Sports was the only large news source that saw past all of $$c's hype and maintained accountability on the program. Now the machinations of the Bushgate scandal are becoming exposed to a point where the MSM and the rest of the nation can no longer look the other way.

Yahoo!'s investigation also mentions that the responsibility of Bushgate may not lie solely on Bush, but also with the university. The permittance of known sports agents to mix and mingle with the athletes on the field and in the locker rooms places liability on the "university" itself for lack of institutional control.

I know that BN has been following this story for awhile, and we have been demanding accountability throughout, while being accused of sounding like embittered, irrational whiners who focus more on hating $uc than Bruins athletics. On the contrary, Southern Cal is not the center of the BN universe, and now that the trojan beans are being spilled all over the place, BN's demands for accountability is proving to not just be baseless vitriol after all. There will be some major fallout at USC in the days to come.

Let there be light.
