Congratulations to the Arizona Republic newspaper this morning. The two biggest sports events in the state, Arizona Wildcats hosting the #2 Oregon Ducks and Phoenix Suns hosting the Chicago Bulls, had zero coverage in the paper this morning because the games finished too late.

"What a Fool Believes" is a great Doobie Brothers song from the 1978 album "Minute by Minute." It reached number one on the pop charts in 1979 and won Grammys as both "Song of the Year" and "Record of the Year." What does that have to do with basketball? Here are some of the lyrics: "But what a fool believes he sees/No wise man has the power to reason away/What seems to be/Is always...

Greg Oden's home debut for the Blazers was a success. 116-74 was the final result, but the game was over not long into the first quarter. The home crowd loved having their prized centre in the Rose Garden finally and the game turned into one big party, with the Chicago Bulls the ugly girl sitting in the corner on this occasion.
