We spend a lot of time and a lot more ink debating the items, interest and the intent of the storylines and the key figures in the sports world.

We do this because it’s fun and because we care and because of the passion sports can deliver to all of us. Be you a fair weather fan or a fanatic, there comes a time be it a college football miracle or a Monday afternoon when the magic of sports can inspire, infuriate and infiltrate all of us.
