Don't look now, but the mighty Ducks of Eugene Oregon...are on the hot seat by the NCAA...recruiting violations...for like 4 years...and they call it preliminary...but have released some of what they have found...it's in the early stages...stay tuned...some of the penalties even include firing of Coach Chip...eegads....stop the insanity...have to think all of them Beaver believers are rejoicing...

Jeremy Lin...another look...watched what the Heat did to him...put big time pressure on him...and he looked lost...slow and methodical...and very vulnerable...maybe, he's just tired from all the hoopla...I mean he came from nowhere and now is putting up big minutes...the jury is out...

The Rookie/Frosh NBA All Star Game...in Orlando...a dunk fest...and kind of a joke...but...a couple of things....the Wall guy can PLAY....and if Ricky Rubio was in NYC or LA he would be the rave...watch out for the Lakers trying to get him in a trade before the March 15 deadline...they are only missing a PG...

The over under line for the number of wins for the upcoming season for the Padres is 70.5...what?...eleven games behind the owner less Dodgers...seems to me...a C note is in order in Vegas on this stat...oh, they'll win more...

The stock market...S & P's the highest since 08....the Dow resting at the 13,000 level...what gives here?

Off to Sycuan for a round of golf...enjoy your weekend...
