Interview coming up

Major League Soccer is coming to Portland. I have an interview with the Timbers' COO, it will be aired January 29th in the regular sports time. It was a great interview and I for one am interested in this exciting team. Be sure to listen to it, 9:34am January 29th.

Developing story

Just received word, Blazers Center Marcus Camby has a partial tear of meniscus in his left knee and will have surgery this week.

BCS Bowl results

It was a great season for the Oregon Ducks. However, it was not meant to be as Auburn beat the Ducks 22-19 in a last second field goal. Next year Oregon??

Seahawks win

Seahawks just upset the New Orleans Saints in round 1 of the NFL Playoffs. Seattle 41, New Orleans 36.

NBA Courts

If you recall, I did a report/review of the New Orleans Arena. Now, Sports Illustrated via si.com has a ranking of the "elite", Decent" and "worst" of the NBA courts.
