March 17, 2011 - Morehead State v Louisville


Games like this are why we do this. Morehead State started strong, but the game was tied at the half. Heroics at the end led to a 62-61 upset of the 4th -seeded Cardinals. I was sorry to see Morehead State get shut down by another Cindarella team on Saturday with the loss to Richmond.

When this block happened, I was really surprised to not hear a whistle. Looks legal in this image.

March 5, 2011 - Oilers at Avalanche

The spectators, or at least the home fans, didn't get much of a hockey game Saturday night. If they were looking, though, they might have been entertained in other ways.

David Koci and Steve MacIntyre exchange blows to the delight of cellphone camera users in the first few rows.

Some young fans have some fun at everyone's expense.

Lauren Gardner, keeping everyone happy.

February 26, 2011 - Texas at Colorado

I picked a good one for my first college basketball game in 7 or so years. Colorado had been down by 22 points late in the first half before going on an amazing 26-4 run, going ahead up by as much as 10, and eventually winning 91-89.

Colorado's man, Alex Burks, has an easy two.

Burks celebrates a nice defensive play as Jordan Hamilton looks discouraged and the Colorado fans go wild.

ESPN Love.

February 23, 2011 - Oilers at Avalanche


The bloodiest hockey game I have ever witnessed. McLeod was injured by a player's stick during an opening faceoff. He would return to the game.

Ryan O'Byrne continues to play out his entire shift after being sliced by Taylor Hall's skate. He would not return to the game.

Young Taylor Hall has a one-on-one with new Avalanche goalie Brian Elliott but is unable to add to the score. The Oilers would take this one 5-1.
