What does $100 million buy these days?...
You know those columns where the writer has no idea what point he wants to make, so he just provides a bunch of mind-boggling stats about what ridiculous contracts handed to athletes could buy? For example, Barry Zito’s $126 million contract (if taxes didn’t exist) could pay for 15,750,000...

Bochy’s veteran love went too far ...
Nate Schierholtz was eligible to come off the disabled list today. He wasn’t activated. In fact, Bruce Bochy said during the world famous “Bruce Bochy Show” that it was no big whoop, because Schierholtz wouldn’t have even started today, because the Dodgers’ starting pitcher...

NBA Tuesday: BASG off-season power poll...
If the start of this NBA off-season has shown us anything, it’s that the split between the elite teams and the schedule-fillers is swelling. Actually, the NBA is on the verge of moving further from parity than at any time since the 1997/98 season, when four teams (Bulls, Jazz, Sonics and Lakers)...

Nate Schierholtz: My Giant...
I guess I’m a member of the media now, albeit not in the traditional sense. I don’t have locker room access, and I don’t spend my afternoons arguing inarguable points on round table talk shows just to create friction with some guy from the Rocky Mountain News (no weirdo, not THAT kind...

NBA Tuesday: Warriors a rudderless ship...
For the Golden State Warriors, the most dispiriting part of last night’s loss to the Clippers wasn’t that Baron Davis almost got a triple-double, but how hard it is to focus blame. The Warriors are 5-24 on the road, but it’s hard to pick out a player who’s been bad all season....

Barry Wrong Actor in Spurs’ Final...
After the Spurs spent the entire game selling every single bit of contact as a near-flagrant foul on the Lakers, it was the lack of acting by a bit player that put the Spurs down 3-1 in the Western Conference Finals. Actually that’s unfair, because without Brent Barry the Spurs would have lost...
