Nick Diaz disrespects GSP

The week before the big UFC welterweight championship fight, the media interviewed both contenders. When Georges St. Pierre (GSP) was asked his thoughts on the fight, he said how Nick Diaz was a good fighter and how he was going to be a tough person to fight. He was giving Nick compliments, and out of nowhere Nick decided to be his own ill-mannered, disrespectful, un-classy individual that he is. He started talking smack about how he was going to crush Pierre. Pierre laughed and said, "You really think I'm scared of you man, are you crazy in your head?" It was a bad move on Diaz to talk down to arguably the greatest mixed martial artist of all time. He portrayed himself as the enemy, instead of a good sportsmanship fighter. They didn't even pound gloves before the fight. It was on a personal level. Diaz talked all that smack only to get demolished for five rounds. Then, after all the hype was over...Diaz announced his retirement. GSP remained humble after maintaining his title. He still also gave respect to Nick Diaz after he won even though he didn't do the same. If Diaz won it would of been bad for the UFC.

Richard Sherman disses Skip Bayless

This past Thursday, Richard Sherman did something no athlete has ever done. He intentionally made himself look like a dis-respectful ignorant person. He also dis-respected one of the most popular sport prognosticators ever. It was a poor move. He went on ESPN's show"First Take," and decided to harass Skip Bayless.
One of his exact phrases was; "In my 24 years of life. I'm better at life than you." He continually kept defaming Skip on a personal level through the entire show. Skip took the high road and didn't stoop to that level. The only question Skip asked was "Do you think you are better than Darrell Revis?" Sherman responded saying "I don't care about him [Revis] all I know is I'm better than you."
I couldn't believe the way he was so arrogant and cocky. Plus, a prognosticators job is to know every sport and the teams better than the individual players do. On top of, predicting what teams will win. It's what Skip and all other prognosticators do for a living. I'm pretty sure he knows the sport just as well as any player.
The facts are Richard Sherman has only played two NFL seasons. In those seasons, he has played phenomenal, but he hasn't proved he is the best. The point is Richard made a fool of himself on national television and gave himself a faint image. I've lost total respect for him, as well as a lot of other football fans.

Crazy Year For March Madness?

March Madness is on the rise, and there is still no clear favorite to win. This year has clearly been one of the craziest in NCAA History. As of this upcoming week, the number one seed will have been held by four different teams: Duke, Indiana, Louisville, and Michigan, and now possibly Gonzaga. Most likely Indiana will hold it even though they just lost to Minnesota. Some of these teams didn't just lose either. They got crushed. For example, when Duke held #1 they lost to #25 Miami 90-63... That's a blowout. In most cases, the #1 seeds of the tournament usually dominate the tournament. It will not be that way this year. I have a feeling that it could be historic. There has never been a #16 seed over come a #1 seed in the first round of March Madness. However, if there is a year that it could happen, it's this one. There is clearly no dominant team in the league right now, and if you had to choose one it would have to be Indiana. They are no guarantee either losing multiple times already. The talent is spread across all the teams right now. March Madness '13 is going to be a toss-up. It wouldn't surprise me if a #6 seed or higher wins the title this year. One thing is for sure, all this craziness will make for an exciting month of March.
