August 30, 2008 – Dr. Dime It must be so hard to age as an ex-professional athlete. Hell, it’s hard for anyone to get older and adjust to the changes with your body that lead to a deterioration in athletic abilities. I’m only the ripe old age of 28, yet my game is already changing [...]

August 17, 2008 – Dr. Dime What can you say about Michael Phelps and last night his clinching 8 gold medals in one Olympic Games? How about ‘wow’? Hell, that just doesn’t seem to cover it. There are no words that can do justice to his Olympic accomplishment. Some people are calling him Superman or [...]

August 7, 2008 – Dr. Browntorious When it was rumored last week that Shawn Kemp aka ‘The Reign Man’ was coming out of retirement to play professionally in Italy I almost wet my pants. Along with the other high fliers of the day; such as Michael Jordan, Dominique Wilkens, Spud Webb, etc., growing up Shawn [...]

July 31, 2008 – Dr. Browntorious Today felt like Christmas when I was surfing the web. I saw something that gave me the game day feeling. You know that excited yet slightly nervous feeling in your stomach that you get before a big game or event that you have been thinking about forever. You know [...]

July 18th, 2008 – Dr. Dime As most die hard movie fans did last night, I was flocking to the nearest cinema to catch the much awaited premiere of the next installment in the Batman series, The Dark Knight. We have been hearing so much about how dark and disturbing Heath Ledger’s final performance was [...]

June 25th, 2008 – Dr. Browntorious Tomorrow will be the biggest day in a group of young athlete’s lives. But with great joy and happiness for some, will undoubtedly come great disappointment and concern for others. I’m talking about the life changing day of the NBA Draft. Over the years there have been many draft [...]

June 14th, 2008 – Dr. Dime I predicted the Celtics to win this series before it began. To be quite honest I think they have a stronger team dynamic, more heart, and far superior defense. Although the style of play has changed dramatically in the NBA over the past few years to a more up-tempo, [...]

June 7, 2008 – Dr. Browntorious If there is one lesson that could be pressed upon us as soon as this Sunday, it’s that it may not be wise to taunt, prod, and ridicule a competitor as fierce and potent as Kobe Bryant. The “Black Mamba” is probably the fiercest competitor the NBA has seen [...]

June 3, 2008 – Dr. J-Water Kobe Bryant has not been named to the NBA’s first team all defense 6 times out of his 12 seasons in the league without rightfully being recognized as one of the NBA’s elite defenders. Kobe’s reputation as a quality defender was solidified in last summer’s Olympic qualifying tournament for [...]

May 13th, 2008 – Dr. Dime I will not say Lebron James is struggling offensively. Considering his penetration, passing, positioning, and even just the defensive attention he attracts it makes for good team offense regardless. What I will say is that all series long Lebron James has struggled with his shot. The only reason his [...]
