Golden State Warriors eyes 73

The Golden State Warriors who in their 25 game of the season lost their first game against a young naïve Milwaukee Bucks team that were the first team all season that had a huge response to ever run the Warriors had. Give a huge assist in the lose to the Boston Celtics who took the Warriors to double overtime and yes the Bucks played also but only had to play hard for 48 minutes against the Toronto Raptors instead of 58 even harder minutes Warriors had to handle against the Celtics. So Steph Curry and Klay Thompson and the Warriors now set their sites on the all-time season record of 72-10 by the Chicago Bulls in '95-'96 season and are ahead of the Bulls by a game after 25. The Warriors may of caught a huge break when Klay only missed the Celtics game with a sprain that happened late in Tuesday game against the Indiana Pacers up 7 with less than a minute left in the game and u can not put your stars in garbage time. They have a never lose mentality and have been really tough to put away just ask the Clippers who were up 23 15 minutes into a November 19 game in LA and the Warriors would come out to play in the second half outscoring the clips 70-49 and winning by 7 a huge 30 point turnaround. Also they went into game 7 of a 7 game roadie perfect and would've been the only perfect 7 game roadie in NBA history. They have gotten favorable calls in some games (ie against the Raptors) but it is the NBA and the better players and teams get help from the refs it is just the nature of the NBA.

The thing about the Warriors and why they have a good shot at the best all-time record is because the only ways u beat them is if Klay or Steph get hurt or u play a full 48 because if u blink they can put up 20 in a second with ease. Talk about ease you are talking about Steph's shot as it is so flawless that he could do it in his sleep and he was so stunned by the first loss that he may bury the Bucks by double-digits by himself  next week.

It is also amazing that head coach Brett Brown of the 1-23 Sixers has a two year contract extension and Luke Walton the head coach of the 24-1 Warriors is 0-0 but when Steve Kerr comes back to the bench Walton will become the hot new assistant and a head coach soon after somewhere else (philly?).

Now Warriors more wins or Sixers more

Chris Jones the next Saskatxhewan Roughriders head coach

Chris Jones who just won the 103Rd Grey Cup as the head coach of the Edmonton Esks will be offered a nice contract by Saskatchewan Roughriders. The Saskatchewan Roughriders will offer him both GM and head coach which Edmonton can not offer the GM job as Ed Hervey is GM of the Esks. The Roughriders will offer him at least 600,000 dollars a year on a multiple year deal (4 or 5 years) and the esks could give him the money but it would blow head coaches salaries through the roof and would screw over every other team in the CFL as they would have to spending a lot more money to keep their head coach or hire one and the esks may not want to do that. Chris Jones has proving that he is not loyal to his employees as he walked away from the Calgary Stampers as the defensive coordinator while under contract and immediately head to Toronto for the same job and money in 2012 and cost the Argos daft pick for tampering. For the Roughriders signing Chris Jones would huge for Saskatchewan and the rest of the CFL as the Riders were out of the playoff hunt in July and it hurt the TV ratings and it took til the last minute to sell out the Grey Cup 103Rd in Winnipeg which is like 6 hours away from Rider fans who usually dominates attendants at Grey Cups. So if Jones makes the Riders D better the team will be better which will make the CFL look better and Riders are getting ready for the final season at Mosiac stadium (Taylor field) with a new stadium opening in 2017. The Roughriders can out bid everybody for Jones and Jones will diffidently be listening to every offer and the Riders 60% and Edmonton 40% chance of having Jones on their sidelines Tom Mehegan

a guy falls to his death @ turner field in Atlanta, GA

It was insane to watch Yankees Vs Braves last night on Sportsnet especially when the TV announcers (Atlanta broadcast) told their audience that a guy had just fallen from the upper level to the lower level behind homeplate right in front of them. The announcers expected the game would be halted for a bit to allow the EMTS do their job and clean up the situation without balls flying at them but that was not the case as pinch hitter A-Rod. A-Rod who looked like the only person on the field seeing what was going on s he was hanging around the on deck circle until the ump asked him to step into the batter's box to continue the game without a stoppage and if the batter Jacoby Ellsbury who was up after A-Rod was intentionally walked to load the bases had sent a screamer towards the area then someone else could of been seriously hurt as it is likely that nobody was paying attention to the game. I feel for the Atlanta announcers had to just but what they had just witness behind them and go on with the game like nothing had happened because if they did not then they would of magnified that something like that had happened and it was never stop even after the half inning was over. So I believe they did the best they could of done with what they were given and were extremely professional in a very had situation. It has happened in Toronto before when a gentleman had a heart attack down the third baseline and because it was at field level they had to stop the game to get a cart on the field to get the gentleman out of the building and it took like 20-30 minutes for the situation was resolved and he still passed away. So the guy Gregory Murrey who was 60 years old died in hospital and major league baseball has tried to buried the story with as it is very low on the stories list on MLB.com and it is not a lead on their home page and the Braves did release a statement after the game confirming the death. It is a very sad story Tom mehegan

rogers cable not helping the WWE Network

rogers cable not helping the WWE Network by holding all other cable and Satellite providers in Canada hoist to their demands. Which means Rogers and east link cable are the only two providers in Canada so that outside of Ontario (rogers) and Quebec/Maritimes (east link) u r unable to get the network so they have to either spent 60 dollars and be called stupid or illegally stream it on web device. So the WWE is not able to reach all of their audience so that their subscriptions are less than they should be (700 k instead of closer to 800 or more) and Rogers idea is phone your cable or satellite company and demand that they give into our demands. So tonight I will be watching Royal rumble on Rogers while sadly others will have to pay 60 dollars, find it illegally, or could get out of watching Daniel Bryant win the Royal Rumble. It is sad that this is case because u give the same deal for the companies that they give their customers (11.99) and it looks less they are bullying them for their lunch money and it is not a good look for them. It is not like the other parts of the country can get Rogers because unlike the states who has numerous cable and satellite companies fighting for ur business cable companies have their regions and Bell satellite is the only coast-to-coast provider. It feels to me that Rogers is becoming more and more evil than the others even in a fix environment Tom Mehegan

nfl waiting til after the superbowl to punish the patriots

It has one of the most messiest super bowl playoffs in a long time and it will not be getting cleaned up anytime soon and playoffs this season will go down as the biggest jokes in sports history. First Ndamukong Suh gets suspended for lions wild card game vs the cowboys for stepping on Arron Rogers leg and then it is reversed and gets to play the game even though he is the dirtiest player in the NFL as he does not hide it (the others know when the cameras can not see them). Then the game happens the cowboys get call for pass interference and then the flag is picked up without any reason given and the cowboys moved onto face the packers and Dez Bryant makes a fabulous catch takes three steps and goes down has the ball on his forearm and flips over and catches the ball in the end zone without it ever touching the ground. It was reversed after review and the boys lose when they should of been up late. Then in the AFC championship game the Pats ran over the Colts numerous time in a 45-7 destruction and everything since the game has been about the balls used for the game and how the balls inflated before the game than they were deflated by game time and were replaced at halftime after being reexamined. So that the Ravens complaints the week before were proven true that the pats play with deflated balls as they brought it to the league attention that they used deflated balls against them. So now what will happen to the pats, coaching staffs (Bill Belichick) and the players (Tom Brady) but it is unlikely that the hammer will drop before the 49th super bowl so that they have a "fair" game. With that in mind there will be a ton officials watching everything before and during the game so no shenanigans happens during the biggest NFL game of the season. After the Vince Lombardi trophy is rewarded thing aBelichickre going down and it may take Brady and Belichick may go down hard in means that Brady may be suspended for maybe a half season and Belichick may be suspended for the 2015 season for the second cheating offence. They really did not get hurt from spy gate as neither Belichick or Brady got suspended while the Saints had a coordinator banned from the NFL, head coach Sean Payton got suspended, and players got suspended games. They by no means are the only ones cheating but it is about being caught and that the NFL can not get another thing rong this season. It will be interesting what will happen but no matter what their legacy is destroyed beyond repair Tom Mehegan

tim and sid going tv only as they go head to head with Bob

So to celebrate the 148th birthday (a.k.a. 48 years misery for Leaf fans) of the great country of Canada Sportsnet have to put their top dogs on TV against each other. So July 1st Sportsnet's greatest tag team tim and sid (a.k.a. sam and ted) goes up against the legendary one Bobcat (a.k.a. fado Bobcat) from 5-7. It will not be an one time thing instead it will be a Monday-to-Friday thing so finally Tim and sidizens get their time in the sun as they finally get the spotlight they deserve. It scenario that should of happened December 2011 with Tim and Sid going to the dark side (tsn radio) and battling for top brand in Canadian sports radio but Sid just did not like tsn and could not do it joining the dark side. So this could prove that tim and sid are awesome or that bob is just all powerful and his sun glasses can destroy anything and everything in their way. It could also setup a scenario where bob leaves stage right and tim and sid step into the prime time spot in a few years (less than 5). So what will happen until July 1st tim and sid will work until March 27Th while Bobcat take some of his 45 weeks vacation (ok he will be working more often than not). Then tim and sid going into hiding for more than 3 month (sid should be used to it he was in hiding as long after being sent home by the score until they could start at Sportsnet) while bobcat will wind down his year and get ready for summer vacation. Tim and sid will be figuring out what to with the two hour show as it looks like a blank sheet for them with the only promise from sid (so far) is that figure a way to put it in podcast form for team podcast. So Greg Brady will move into 1-4 with a mystery tag team partner to be announced closer to the end of March which leads into April fools and one of the biggest fools of TORONTO radio a.k.a. Dean Blundell taken over the morning show which means that Sportsnet may or may not have learned from the Andrew krystal experiment which is shock jock radio on Toronto sports radio does not fit. So good luck to tim and sid I will miss u for three month but than it is back to normal Tom Mehegan
