Aftermath of the Garcia – Morales Title Fight

Erik Morales wasn’t even fighting for a title. Weighing two pounds above the allowed 140, the WBC Light Welterweight title was only for Danny Garcia to win.

In the 101-79 win over the Detriot Pistons, the two combined for one of the most impressive Alley-Oop dunks of the season.

Jim Boeheim Can’t Beat Big Ten Teams

Jared Sullinger was too much, finishing with 19 point. Syracuse couldn’t keep Ohio State at bay with their zone defense that worked OK in the first half, but allowed 52.4% in the second half. Thad Matta is headed to his second final four with the Buckeyes in six years, while Jim Boeheim, who had a rough year off the court, tries to figure out how this happens against Big Ten teams all the time.

The Worst Free Throw Shooters in the NBA

Dwight Howard may be the best Center in the NBA, claiming that title for a few years now. It doesn’t make him perfect, as the Orlando Magic franchise man plummeted to new lows this season with his free throw shooting, seeing 50% from the bottom. He’s still not the worst in the league.

Mad Men is Back – A Christina Hendricks Tribute

Christina Hendricks isn’t the only good thing about Mad Men, but she’s certainly one of the best reasons to watch the show if you aren’t all into what’s actually happening in Don Draper’s life. Hendricks, who plays Joan Holloway, isn’t only the hottest red head on the planet or the bustiest women on your TV screen. She just maybe the sexiest thing to ever enter our lives.

Peter Crouch With the Goal of the Season in the Premier League

Peter Crouch never ceases to amaze, to surprise. It’s his height that’s misleading, no matter how many times he shows us he’s more than just a tall player with aerial superiority. His incredible goal in Stoke’s 1-1 draw with Manchester City is not only the goal of the season in the English Premier League, but a wonderful gift to Alex Ferguson and Manchester United.
