Here's todays sports news...

To get you psyched for tonight's game, here's some news on the Warriors front: -Here are Ten Reasons why you should jump on the Warriors bandwagon. -Baron Davis is the happiest guy alive. -The Betting Fool tells everyone to calm the f---- down. -Is this series a grudge match between Nellie and Cuban? Or are they one, but not the same? -Will the Mavs continue to go small or give it to Nowitzky? -Nellie, with......

Okay, since the Alex Rodriguez stories are all over the place, let's take a deeper look at them-- because ruminating on completely unsubstantiated speculation is fun. ...

Here's today's wrap up sports news...

In Part I, we discussed just how good the Giants would be this season. Then, when it was agreed we were looking at a .500 team, we tried to figure out how okay we were with it. Today, we try to assess blame and then make some predictions. And away we go.... ...

-Down, down, down go the Warriors ,who lost their fifth straight, losing 106-97 to the Knicks in New York. -Once again, the Sharks faced off against the Ducks and once again, the Ducks got the better of them. Same old story. This was the Ducks fifth win over the Sharks in seven games. -Jeff Garcia won't be dooming the final years of his life by signing with the Raiders as they fail to come to......

Sharks beat high-scoring Ducks, 4-3, with a tipped pass by Joe Thorton in the late, late third period. The victory snapped the Ducks five game winning streak and was only their fourth regulation loss of the season. Is their still room on the Sharks bandwagon?...

So with the passing of the trade deadline, we have the answer to this weekends' big Giants' question-- wave the white flag or go for it. We're going for it. Unfortunately, we're going for it with the same team that is currently enjoying an eight-game losing streak. So unless Sabaen can somehow pull off a Benitez for A-Rod trade (Sabes?) , the question out there is what if anything can the Giants do to get off the schneid? Well, here's something to ponder, something that for whatever reason isn't really being discussed even though it should, and here it is; Fire Felipe. Like right now before it's too late. ...

Hey, did you hear we're hosting the All-Star game next year? If you watch any of the Giants' games on TV (and who would, all things considering), they only mention it like twenty times a game. Last week they had some big brouhaha with Hizzoner Gavin to unveil the logo and if you go to a Giants game, they have signs everywhere and some clock to let you know that, like, there are only 362 DAYS UNTIL THE ALL-STAR GAME!!!!! ...

Believe it or not, we're not into booing players on opposing teams. Oh, sure, we've been known to let loose a boo whenever A-Rod comes to bat or join in with an entire stadium in chanting "Dar-ryl! Dar-ryl!" but that's about it. As our old Dead Head friends would say, too much negavitive energy is bad, man. Then there's the fact we consider screaming "you suck!" while holding up a middle finger not to be the height of wit (we much prefer our taunting to be more Algonquin Round Table-y). But then there's what Cal fans did during Saturday's victory against USC. ...

And what are we to make of the news that Gavin occasionally goes all "Alias" and travels throughout his realm incognito to see how his public fares? That considering he's trying to bust some Cable Car Conductor thieving ring, maybe he's doing research for some sort of Private Eye/TV show thing? You know "Mayor by Day, Crime Solver by night." Or that with his newly single status, maybe it's his way of meeting someone cute and dating someone who might not be found in his usual Swigian soirees and upper-crust society balls for the hoity toity? You know, like it'll be a soon-to-be a major motion pictures starring Reese Witherspoon as a Starbucks barista and Mark Ruffalo as the newly divorced bachelor Mayor who falls in love with her while killing time during a public transportation break down. Was he the Marina-ite looking way out of place and nervous at Zeitgeist last weekend? Or was he the one who elbowed us out of the way while we were trying to get us some haggis at Burns Night at the Edinburgh? ...

Two weeks after his now infamous press conference, Barry Bonds once again met the press, this time in a half an hour chat with the Oakland Tribune's Andrew Baggerly and ESPN's Barry Bonds beat reporter, Pedro Gomez. The Barrisimo once again expounded on all things Barry, from steroids to cheating to the size of his head and his balls. Yep, his balls. We quote: "I can tell you my testicles are the same size. They......
