Who?

When the Miami Heat took PG Norris Cole as the 28th overall pick in the 2011 NBA Draft, I thought to myself, Who in the world is Norris Cole? I saw some highlights, read a couple stat sheets and then realized that Norris Cole is "the answer" to the Heat winning an NBA Championship. Norris Cole was unheard of because he attended Cleveland State who I didn't even know had a basketball program. Norris Cole has Allen Iverson like quickness with the tenacity of Derrick Rose.

Fun Fact: There are only 2 players in Division 1 basketball history to have at least 40 points and 20 rebounds in a game. I know what you're thinking..... Gotta be Bill Walton, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, Chris Webber, Michael Jordan maybe.... No, the answer is Blake Griffin and your boy Norris Cole. That's right. Norris Cole put up 41 points 20 rebounds and 9 assists vs. Youngstown State this season. Dude is freaky good. Norris Cole was the only player in Division 1 basketball this season to average 20 points, 6 rebounds, and 6 assists per game.

If you think drafting Norris Cole was a mistake, think again. Watch this video clip and tell me what you think...

Jack is Back

80 year old former skipper Jack McKeon is back in baseball. Yes, after Marlins manager Edwin Rodriguez resigned due to the Marlins going through a 1-19 stretch, the Marlins sought to acquire Jack McKeon to manage the team. If you remember from awhile back, McKeon managed the Marlins in 2003 where they went on to win the World Series that year over the Yankees. In 2003, McKeon was asked to turn a struggling team into a playoff contending one. In 2011, he is asked to do the same. In 2003, the Marlins were 35-39 after 74 games, 13 games out of 1st place in the division. McKeon was brought in to turn things around. From that point on, the Marlins had the best record in baseball and went on to clinch the National League Wild Card and a playoff birth. Well, its deja vu all over again (Yogi Berra reference). The Marlins are in the same predicament this year and Jack is being asked to turn things around. Theres only one question, can Jack yet again pull off the unlikely?

Tell me what you think.
