The Rebirth of the DePaul Blue Demons
I’ve been a DePaul fan my whole life. I remember as a boy sitting with my father watching DePaul thrill the nation on WGN television. Coach Ray Meyer was a mentor to me, and his son Joey was a class individual that never got the respect he deserved in Lincoln Park.
When then athletic director Bill Bradshaw decided to part ways with the Meyer family, he brought in Pat Kennedy...

Simmons out Quinn In
I’m not breaking any news here, just adding to the chatter, Bobby Simmons has been waived by the Spurs and replaced on the roster by Chris Quinn.
I’m thinking that Temple’s ball handling duties, limited though they were, are now practically non-existent; either that, or George Hill’s slow start and injury have led the Spurs to look for some help.

Game #2 Preview :: Spurs vs Hornets
Just like we did against the Indiana Pacers. Come out with aggression and put some heat on the New Orleans Hornets. In the past we all know what fits this Hornets team can give us.
With the offensive output the team gave against the Pacers, lighting up the board for 122 points, I hope the defense will step up and not give up another 100 or so.
Can this Hornets team do that...
