  • Cardinal Tradition Louisville Basketball
    Cardinal Tradition Louisville Basketball Louisville Basketball Tradition asketball is special to Kentuckians. The sport B permeates everyday life from offices to farm- lands, from coal mines to neighborhood drug stores. It is more than just a sport played in the cold winter months. It is a source of pride filled year-round with anticipation, hope and celebration. Kentuckians love their basketball, and the tradition-rich University of Louisville program has supplied its fans with one of the nation’s finest products for decades. Legendary coach Bernard “Peck” Hickman, a Basketball Hall of Fame nominee, arrived on the UofL campus in 1944 to begin a remarkable string of 46 consecutive winning seasons. For 23 seasons, Hickman laid an impressive foundation for UofL. John Dromo, an assistant coach under Hickman for 19 years, continued the Louisville program in outstanding fashion following Hickman’s retirement. For 30 years, Denny Crum followed the same path of success that Hickman and Dromo both walked, guiding the Cardinals to even higher acclaim. Now, Coach Rick Pitino energized a re-emergence in building upon the rich UofL tradition in his 16 years, guiding the Cardinals to the 2013 NCAA championship, NCAA Final Fours in 2005 and 2012 and the NCAA Elite Eight five of the past 10 sea- sons. Among the Cardinals’ past successes include national championships in the NCAA (1980,1986, 2013), NIT (1956) and the NAIB (1948). UofL is Taquan Dean kisses the Freedom Hall floor Tremendous pride is taken in the tradition the only school in the nation to have claimed the after his final game as a Cardinal.

  • Ravens -9 at Jaguars (2 Units) Forget All the Old Clichés About Taking The
    Ravens -9 at Jaguars (2 units) Forget all the old clichés about taking the Monday night 'dog. You don't want any part of Jacksonville. Neither do the Jaguars' fans. Apathy and boring football reign in Jacksonville. The Jaguars are averaging a meager 12 points per game. They rank last in total offense and in passing. Maurice Jones-Drew is their only legitimate star and he's going to get bottled up by a Baltimore defense than is permitting only 76.6 rushing yards per game, third-best in the NFL entering Week 7. The Ravens came into this week allowing only 14.2 points a game, tops in the NFL. There are some who believe this year's Ravens defense is their best ever. It's going to be a nightmare for rookie Blaine Gabbert, who was thrown into the fire and remains a serious work in progress. Gabbert can expect heavy pressure and blitzing. So far he's failed to handle the pressure completing 18-of-42 (42 percent) when blitzed and being sacked eight times on blitzes. The Jaguars have shown little confidence in Gabbert. Their main purpose seems to be just to keep him out of harm's way. Jacksonville was calling running plays down by two touchdowns against the Steelers last week. Jack Del Rio is a lame duck coach. The Jaguars have dropped five in a row. Their defense is far too weak to carry such a struggling offense. Ravens coach John Harbaugh usually takes care of business against weak opponents. The Ravens are 15- 6 ATS the past 21 times they've met a foe with a losing mark.

The NBA had expanded to Seattle and San Diego in 1967; and to Milwaukee and Phoenix a year later. While some contended that the talent pool wasn’t there to support so many new teams, the NBA was eager for new markets in large part because it was at war with the rival Ameri- can Basketball Association. The ABA had been around since 1967 and was developing a strong following in some parts of the country. The ABA, with its distinctive red, white and blue ball, emphasized slam dunks and high scoring. The rival league was driving up player salaries and many owners in the older NBA were becoming increasingly concerned about the bottom-line. New teams to the NBA paid escalating franchise fees. In the case of the new kids on the block – Portland, Cleveland and Buf- falo – the entry fee was $3.7 million. Days after the announcement was made, it be- came apparent that the Buffalo group didn’t have deep The new Buffalo franchise unveils its nickname the Braves, selected enough pockets to operate a team at the most expensive from over 14,000 entries in a “Name the team” contest.
