Where do you think Lebron is going next ? Chicago ? Cleveland or staying with the Heat ? The Russ Parr Morning Show threw the question out there this morning. Here is what you had to say.
The NCAA tournament is going strong and college basketball lovers are in heaven with their brackets! Unfortunately, our U Albany Boys came close but did not beat Florida State yesterday. But of course we still send them love and congratulate them. But, what I am realllly wondering about, is where in the hell is the love for U Albany Women's basketball team?! What better way to celebrate Women's Hi
As a means of transportation, the bobsled has been around forever. It wasn't until the late 1800s that racing was established thanks to the Swiss adding a steering mechanism to a toboggan.
When you hear about a story like this, you often feel bad for the guy who maybe tripped, or even drunkenly stumbled, over a railing to fall into the crowd below. In this case, after watching the video you just think, "You stupid moron!"
Are you ready for some UAlbany Football??? The Great Danes’ home opener at their new stadium named after their coach (who’s in his final season), Bob Ford, is on Saturday at 7pm under the lights.
UAlbany Great Danes football fans have a lot of new additions to look forward to this season – a coach’s last hoorah season, a new stadium, a new conference, and a new marching band!
It’s rare in any level of sports for one team to have a coach as long as Bob Ford has been with the University at Albany. The coach’s 43-year run as the team’s fearless leader will end after this season.
It's time to take the baseball spotlight off A-rod, enough is enough!!! And turn the spotlight on baseball stars we have right here in our very own backyard!! The Upstate Thoroughbreds as these ECTB champions head to Allentown, PA this weekend to the WORLD SERIES!!!
Yeah, Riley Cooper said it. You won't believe it, but he said it. At a Kenny Chesney concert in his best sleeveless-with-a-collar (?!) plaid shirt, the Eagles wide receiver set himself on a tee for Commissioner Roger Goodell (and everyone else) to kick.
You’d be hard pressed to find someone who has as much pride in their birthplace as Ice Cube. The Los Angeles native took the stage in his hometown on Sunday night and took the opportunity to express his thoughts on basketball player, Dwight Howard’s decision to leave the Lakers for the Houston Rockets.
It’s always nice to see celebrities remembering where they came from. Glens Falls High School basketball star, and current member of the Sacramento Kings, is holding his Jimmer Jam Camp in Saratoga this week.
You can call it a comeback! A press release announced the MAAC NCAA men’s and women’s basketball tournament will return to the Times Union Center in downtown Albany 2015-2017.
We told you earlier this week about the growth of Jay-Z’s Roc Nation Sports management company. New York Yankee second baseman, Robinson Cano, was the first ball player to sign a deal with the Roc. A more recent addition was WNBA baller, Skylar Diggins. Jay showed his appreciation and support for Skylar by gifting her with a brand new Mercedes Benz as a graduation gift. The newest member of Jay-Z’
Pro golfer, Sergio Garcia, has been playing pretty solid lately. His game has been up and down over the years, but he was looking like an early favorite in The Players Championship a few weeks ago. On one of the days (golf tournaments are 4 days), he was paired up with his arch rival, Tiger Woods. The two were open and honest about not liking each other.
As a lifelong Knicks fan, the Miami Heat have caused me a lot of pain over the years. I gotta give it up to my man, Dwayne Wade, though. Dude is a 2 time NBA Champion, a former NBA Finals MVP, Olympic gold medalist, league scoring champion and rookie of the year. Oh yeah, he has fine taste in women, too (he’s dating Gabrielle Union). One major question mark is his sense of style, though. Maybe I’m
Rutgers men’s basketball coach Mike Rice was fired this week after video footage was released, showing Rice verbally and physically abusing his players. It seems abusive coaches exist on all levels as a local coach has been suspended indefinitely for similar accusations.
Louisville took out Duke to advance to the NCAA Final Four this past weekend. They lost a player to one of the most unnerving injuries every documented in sports, though.
I know a lot of UAlbany students are gonna throw shade at me, but let's be realistic here... Duke is gonna romp on the Great Danes and dance their way into the NCAA Championship game before getting squashed by Indiana in the finals. Believe me, I saw it in my crystal ball.
Siena basketball fans can now breathe a sigh of relief. The team’s coach, Mitch Buonaguro, was released from his contract a year early. Remember when Siena was competing with the most elite teams in the NCAA Tournament? Yeah… We miss you, Fran McCaffery.
I've been told Wrigley Field in Chicago is more of a bar than a sports venue. The Cubs play there... would you expect anything less? The only way to cope with your team affiliation is to drown your sorrows, or become a White Sox fan. One fan (who we assume was drunk, given the prior statement) was booted from a game against the Pittsburgh Pirates because of his on-camera gestures.
Today could be a big one for Troy native Joe Mahoney. Joe is expected to make his first major league roster appearance tonight with the Baltimore Orioles. Mahoney is a graduate of Catholic Central.
All signs point to the New Orleans Hornets taking Kentucky standout Anthony Davis with the first pick of Thursday’s NBA Draft. Davis is widely considered to be the most NBA-ready player in the crop of players vying for the top spots. If the Hornets do select Davis, he’ll instantly be shouldered with the burden of turning around the struggling franchise.
Snoop Dogg‘s son, Cordell Broadus, is one of the top dogs in high-school football, and if everything goes to plan he could be headed to a top university after he graduates in 2015. Although he just finished his freshman year at Diamond Bar High School, Broadus has received a scholarship offer to play football at UCLA.
LeBron James recorded a triple-double, and the Miami Heat won the 2012 NBA title with a 121-106 rout of the Oklahoma City Thunder in Miami on Thursday night.
Baseball, football and basketball player salaries keep rising, but a competitor outside of those popular team sports is the world’s highest paid athlete.
Golf is all about precision and patience. It takes years of practice and skill to be one of the best in the world. Hip hop and golf aren’t paired together often. Could you imagine Weezy swingin’ a sand wedge on the 9th hole rockin’ Truk Fit khakis and a tucked in polo? I would pay to see that!
