Flawless Thoughts

Duke's gonna be fired up after the comments made by Jalen Rose in the Fab Five documentary on ESPN earlier in the week. But do they really need any extra motivation? It's common knowledge that Coach K is one of the best basketball coaches on the planet after his fourth NCAA championship and an Olympic Gold Medal. This man could motivate a mountain to move.

All season in the NHL the Flyers have looked like a lock to go to the Finals from the East, but now the Caps have been surging, ending a nine-game win streak this week. The Rangers are poised to take the 7 or 8 seed, while the Devils need to win the rest of their games and hope for some help. Of coarse the Islanders are the worst team ever. In the West anyone would say that the Canucks are the team to beat, considering they're the only team that has already punched a ticket to the playoffs.

When the Heat play poorly it's the biggest story in sports, but when they win, no one but Miami fans get it as front page news. Kinda like on news programs when way more time is spent on negative news than positive. This has become the norm in sports news, with huge amounts of time spent on negative stories, a player busted for DUI gets tons of coverage, but for every player that gets a DUI there are many more doing great things for their communities, it's too bad that we don't hear more about it from Jim Rome.
