Once again, defense took over as the Gray squad rallied to defeat the Scarlet squad 17-9 at the 2007 Ohio State Spring Game.

I report $0 memorabilia income!
In honor of Tax Day, thewadeblogs examines the Top 10 Sports Star Tax Evaders. The visual of Daryl Strawberry’s 1040 is especially good. Personally, I just hope Tressel avoids tax troubles if he forgets to inform the government of his ownership of Lloyd Carr.

The 2007 ACC/BigTen Challenge pairings have been released and the Buckeyes have drawn the Tar Heels for the 2nd straight year. Thankfully, this years tilt will take place in the friendly of The Schott. As you recall, the Buckeyes lost to UNC 98-89 in Chapel Hill this past season in what turned about to be [...]

That’s some hot shit right there!
Mike Conley Sr. is having one hell of a week.
Not long after he opened his own agency and was certified as an NBA agent, the stock of his son skyrockets and rumors are flying that MAC Management Group, Conley’s new agency, could be representing 2 lottery picks in the NBA [...]
