My favorite play in all of the sports world is a quarterback going down blindsided by a man with a running start and a thirst for blood. As a matter of fact any big defensive hit on the football field tops my chart. During the fall and early winter there is nothing better...but its march yo! Slam dunks nice cuts deep threes fast breaks plus buzzer beaters please. Watching the first two rounds of the ncaa tourney I often wondered are some of these teams still thinking the leaves are falling? Basketball is a thrilling game to watch ,that is, when the game has a smooth rythme to it. But there are those who refuse to keep the pace and do everything in their power to disrupt the others' tempo. The Big Ten strives on this. It does win games. It does take skill and practive. Blocked shots, full court presses and stolen passes are cool dont get me wrong but the way Michigan State went about it in the first round was just ugly basketball. I was honestly getting frustrated while witnessing four to five minutes of play go by without a fiedgoal. The average trip down court consisted of the crap you see at a gradeschool game: people throwing wild passes out of bounds, guys dribbling the ball off themselves, and no one able to hit a shot to save their lives. Come on, if I want to see that kind of action I'll just watch highschool ball on ONN. So all those teams out there concentrating harder on their own focus than disrupthing focus I'm pulling for you and until September rolls around defence takes a back seat.
