Ah, the NBA. Only in that league does Billy Knight get to be a GM, Donald Sterling gets to keep owning a team, Vinny Del Negro gets multiple jobs as a head coach, and a pissy Deron Williams gets to run off a legend like Jerry Sloan before being traded ...

I know, I know. It’s been awhile since my last contribution.
Well, let me re-introduce myself. I’ve been described as a ‘would-be ladies man,’ a Rick Moranis clone and a hopeless romantic (I still think the Cubs have a shot).
Oh yeah, and I’m an Indiana University football fan. Yeah, that’s right. ...

Yeah, that's right I said it. Rooting for Indiana University's men's basketball team is just freaking great. Not only has my Alma mater been tearing it up on the court the past two seasons (to the tune of a 16-46 record), but hated rival Purdue has become a national power. ...

As you loyal Rumors and Rants readers are all too familiar with by now, we’re a bunch of Indiana University graduates. Which means a few things:
1. We apparently weren’t smart enough to get into our No. 1 college choice (Northwestern in my case).
