The Baptized Beavers can almost taste those cookies and truffles. Riding on the narrow shoulders of Jon Scheyer, the Beavers are the prohibitive favorites in the BASG March Madness Pool, the only pool that promises homemade chocolate treats to the winner. I gave up on winning this thing last Saturday,...

What a crazy last few days. A health care bill of some sort passed in the House, Chris Cohan hired Georges St-Pierre (sorry, wrong GSP) to help sell the Warriors, Tiger Woods gave two interviews that somehow made him look even less human than before, the Scot McCloughan saga will only get messier, and...

It’s always easy to complain about the corportate-ness of sporting events, especially big ones. “The Super Bowl doesn’t have real fans, it’s all a bunch of corporate cronies who get tickets and don’t even care about the game.” Yes, corporate giveaways seem too distant,...

Before I get started, I have to remind you to sign up for the 2nd-annual BASG March Madness NCAA Basketball Tournament Pool. Or to shorten it up a little, “Chocolate Brackets.” Because, you see, the BASG Pool isn’t just FREE (Did you catch that? Free? As in: NO BUY-IN, NO ANTE, ALL...

Once Memphis and Duke went down in the Sweet 16 within fifteen minutes of each other, I started preparing myself for the inevitable: having to write about whatever someone else told me to. Anytime I’ve written anywhere else the subject has been chosen for me by teachers, editors or that scary guy...

As I sit here and wait to watch an afternoon full of rain delays at Mays Field on my television, I can’t help but wonder why everyone says this is the best sports week of the year. Sure, it’s nice that baseball’s back, but it’s painfully obvious that the NCAA Tournament has become...

A hearty congratulations to “Meatballs,” winner of the first annual BASG NCAA Madness tourney pool. After UConn lost to a solid yet completely annonymous Michigan State squad it became official, as Meatballs has the Tar Heels winning the title and nobody picked the Spartans. Her lead is safe,...

For 26 of the 28 entrants in the BASG NCAA Madness pool, the only reason to watch the rest of the NCAA Tournament is just to see who won. No cookies, no editorial control over BayAreaSportsGuy.com, no guts…no glory. But for two contestants (both of whom are women who watch little to no college...

Well, there goes my bracket. Memphis and Duke, just like that, out within ten minutes of each other. I had an idea that the slow, soft Blue Devils were going to get manhandled by Villanova after watching the Wildcats do the same to the Bruins, but I really thought Memphis had something going. Instead,...
