Mike Leach called a Code Red

And here I thought everyone loved “A Few Good Men.”

Too bad Mike Leach would be a terrible Col. Jessep. He’d have no compelling speech (even though his lawyers intend to craft one) in which to base his silly hazing on receiver Adam James, who was punished for getting a concussion apparently.

Lies in Leach’s eyes. Hysteria for the sports world.

He actually told James to stand in a small, dark room and not leave or he would be kicked off the team (if you believe James). If that’s not a special kind of crazy, I don’t know what is.

Urban Meyer hype is out the window

Florida is going crazy after the announcement that Gators coach Urban Meyer was resigning. Sad day in Gainseville -- and on ESPN.

It’s really a cultural thing more than anything else.

When news hit that University of Florida football coach Urban Meyer was resigning due to health concerns, the whirlwind was imminent. After it was announced live during the North Carolina-Pittsburgh bowl game, Gatorzone, the official site of the Florida Gators, went down.

First thought: It’s going to be one of those bowl weeks.

Rick Pitino might blame you for his affair if you're not careful.

I haven’t followed Rick Pitino’s career too closely. Wikipedia tells me he’s coached for the Knicks and Celtics in the NBA, as well as the University of Kentucky, University of Boston and now the University of Louisville in the college ranks. Apparently, he’s highly thought of as a coach. But I know what he sucks at – owning his mistakes. And because of that, I’m finding it hard to have any respect for the guy.

I’ll even admit I haven’t followed this situation too closely, but what I do know is that the good Catholic family man impregnated another woman and paid for her to get an abortion. Not great, Rick, but Michael Vick got a freaking standing ovation in his first game back after murdering dogs. Own the mistake, apologize, be humble, swear it won’t happen again, and I promise the public will forget in no time. He’s chosen to go another route, most recently saying ‘Hey, Ted Kennedy just died. Shouldn’t we be talking about that instead?’ Observe:

Both NCAA championships are gonna suck

After North Carolina obliterated Michigan State in the men’s NCAA basketball championship 89-72, I’m hard pressed to believe we’re going to survive another day without another massacre on national television.

If you recall, UConn’s women (38-0) have beaten Louisville (34-4) twice this year, including once in early March. The Huskies blew away the Cardinals 75-36 March 10, and 93-65 Jan. 26. The spread on game is -16.5 in favor of the Huskies.

These have got to be the most boring matchups in NCAA championship history. Double it with the fact that the Major League Baseball season opened (officially) today, and there wasn’t much incentive to stay on CBS for the game.

How can anyone sit through games like this without some money on it?
