It wasn’t that long ago when I wrote that, as we move ahead in time, sports are that much closer to returning. In fact, it was one week ago when I wrote that. I’d like to believe that’s true, but like a lot of things we hear and read regarding the word I wish never […]

By Mathias Berbel UFC 249, will it happen this time? Only time will tell. This event was originally schedule for April 18th, but due to the coronavirus pandemic it was postponed until May 9th. President of the UFC, Dana White has had to cancel numerous cards due to the virus, but he has not gone […]

Normally, in the beginning of May, I’d be in a really good sports mood. We’d have NBA playoffs in the second round, and same with the NHL. (By the way, hockey is the best spectator sport, more on that at another time.) And baseball would be in its second month. There’s nothing like the playoffs […]

By Gary Dickman. I have to admit that I’m surprised there’s so much going on in sports, considering that there’s really nothing going on in sports. What I mean by that is that there are no games going on, but there’s a lot to talk about in sports. Which I didn’t really think was going […]

Before Sunday, the only dancing I really watched was “Dancing with the stars.” But now, like most of you, I’m sure, I loved “The Last Dance,” the 10-part documentary on ESPN about the 1997-98 Chicago Bulls and a guy named Mike.

And no matter what sport we’re passionate about – football, basketball, baseball, etc. – in the end it’s just entertainment. Unlike this scary, uncertain time […]

By Gary Dickman. Guess what, I’m still here. I figured, “Why not still talk about what could be going on, what should be going on and what’s not going on?” But first, there is some UH basketball news. Since last week, UH has had three players transfer out. Two of them didn’t surprise me, with […]

By Gary Dickman Well it wasn’t the week anyone expected, with the UH basketball team losing both games this week, and at home no less. I did not see this coming, and trust me, neither did the team. Already coming off of a 2 game losing streak on the road, things were looking good as […]

By Gary Dickman You can’t buy it. You can’t trade for it. Only a few are it. I’m sure as you read this you are wondering what am I talking about… I’m talking about the “It “ factor, as it pertains to teams and athletes in sports. I really feel that our UH Basketball team […]
