Behind Wade & A.I., which is the only place either player will beat Lebron one on one. Do they count kids’ jerseys? I got a few for my nieces for Christmas…shhhhh!

The Buckeyes are undefeated going into tonight’s game against Belmont and OSU should easily be able to extend their winning streak to six games. Ohio State is finally in the top 25, where they belong, but it’s tough to get a good gauge on this team. They are taking care of business so far, which is all you can ask, but their non-con schedule has been light. Their win over St. Joes was impressive and they have difficult games with Iowa State and LSU, but on the whole, this team shouldn’t have more than one or two losses heading into conference season. It will be in big 10 play that Thad will really earn his paycheck.
Despite sending three teams to the elite 8 last year, Big Ten basketball may be stronger overall this season. This is how OSU starts Big Ten play in the new year.

Northwestern, Purdue and Penn State are all easy victories. The rest will be a dogfight. Even taking out the ranked teams, Minnesota is starting to play like people thought they would since Grier is healthy (Grier has often been called the toughest player to defend in the conference) and Michigan is also loaded wil talent.
The B10 sked is rough, no doubt, but by building the team’s confidence through the non-con schedule, the Buckeyes should have the talent and experience to be in the thick of the Big Ten race.
After a scorching 9-2 start, the Cavs have gon 2-7, including tonight’s mind-blowing loss AT HOME to the Atlanta Hawks, a team that had previously won only 3 games. This is no longer “on the schnide” territory. It’s an official slump.
Worse yet, Zydrunas is hurt. He says he’ll be back Thursday, but the last thing this team needed was for Zydrunas to be missing games…any games. He’s the only guy on the team other than Lebron who has been scoring consistently. Tonight’s game looked like the bad old days of standing around and waiting for Lebron to make a shot, of which he made many, for a total of 39 points. It was agonizing to watch.
As of this post, Cavs down by 7 at the half, at home, to the Hawks. Ugh. Word is that Z has a knee problem.
Ilgauskas, averaging 15 points and 7.5 rebounds per game, said his knee is sore from general wear and tear. He’s hoping to return for Thursday night’s game against Denver.
I played a little racketball today at the gym, and I know a little bit about “general wear and tear” on the knees. I’m officially worried.
It was fourth-and-1 at the 50 with 10:25 left in the third quarter. Frye started waving his arms and directing traffic like he was going to run a play. The offensive linemen pitched in by calling out signals. Just like a seasoned veteran, Frye drew the Bengals offside.
For the record, this is one of my favorite things about Peyton Manning…the chicanery, the fakery, the waving of the arms when nothing is actually happening, people running around with no intent of running a play…love it. Is Frye the second coming of Bernie?
