Can you imagine doing anything for sixteen years. The same job, day after day, month after month, year after year. It might drive some people crazy. It doesn’t have that effect on the Houston Rockets back up center, Dikembe Mutombo. He is an ageless wonder from the Georgetown Hoyas …

If you watched college basketball six years ago, you probably remember the Kentucky Wildcat’s tall and extremly thin player, Tayshaun Prince. If you don’t, just imagine a tree branch that can dribble, shoot and defend the basketball. I’m not kidding, Tayshaun is six foot nine and weighs like one …

The consensus among most NFL observers is JaMarcus Russell will be the #1 overall pick in this year’s NFL draft. And, while I think he has the physical tools to be a pro quarterback, I have to question whether he’s mentally ready.
My biggest concern over the junior out of …
