“…When I’m watching the game with my boys, we’re always wishing that the commentators sitting court side or high above the 50-yard line would tell it it like it is!!! We’ve seen recently that some analyst on TV and Radio absolutely refuse to pull punches in terms of how they view sports and its respective players. Brutal honesty, (ala Jim Rome, Stephen A. Smith, and Skip Bayless) is something that I’ve grown to appreciate as a sports fan. Even though there are times where I don’t agree with their point of view and at times resent what they’re opinions, I can respect the fact that they speak their minds.”
“Where I’m from, we call this “Real Talk;” when you refuse to compromise your views for fear of being disagreeable. With the exception of the political arena, and respectful debates of religious idealism, sports can be perhaps the most polarizing area of discussion… No worries, there will be no talk of health-care legislation in this blog, and conversations of religion will be limited to the social impact of the athletes we highlight! Here, we talk sports… just like you do from your couch on game night… Saturday afternoons in the basement where the colors of your Alma Mater are the only decoration… betting corner in the Mirage, south strip Vegas… nose bleed seats at Madison Square Garden.”
“…The Scorecard: just sports lines, scoreboards, and real talk… period.”
