The Brown Five is (what will hopefully be) a daily breakdown of five stories that Brown stumbled upon and causes his eyebrows to raise up a bit. This probably won't be daily because Brown has the attention span of a...hey look! A bicycle...
1) A-Rod staying put?Wait a second, wasn't he supposed to test the market and make someone else pay him $350 million? Now he's going to "settle" for about $275 million.
There's a lot of questions still to be answered. Things like, "didn't Cashman say they weren't going to talk if he opted out?" and "what about Boras claiming nothing less than 350?", and "weren't there rumors of the Yankees demanding to talk to Rodriguez only and not Boras?"
Keep an eye on things going forward.
2) GLAAD overreacts to the LakersIf Kobe isn't raping women, and Andrew Bynum isn't...well...retarded, Phil Jackson is insulting the gays.
"We call this a 'Brokeback Mountain' game, because there's so much penetration and kickouts. It was one of those games." - Phil Jackson on getting beat by the Spurs
Guh, unless he means that Bruce Bowen Smushed Parker over the scorer's table, get over it.
3) Oregon in the dreaded number 2Big loves Oregon, I'm just an outside fan. Oregon is sitting in what has been the death knell spot for numerous teams this year.
Karl Dorrell is a shitty coach, and UCLA hasn't really done anything to merit any fear. I'm telling them to watch out for the Arizona Stoops. Arizona is good for an upset at home once a year, and it ain't happened yet.
4) Exactly why does Tommy Bowden have a job?Clemson fans have been wanting to fire little T for god knows how long, but then Clemson pulls out a few victories and he stays. It's like when Wayne Fontes was coaching the Detroit Lions.
He's got three years left on his contract, and Clemson has two options: extend him or buy him out.
Little T, in typical Bowden fashion, brings Clemson to the river but can't quite make them drink. Here's a tip Clemson, hire someone else.
5) Texas Over OklahomaSure it was North Texas over Oklahoma State, and Big won't type anything because his keyboard is all sticky. This was a really good win for the Sun Belt champs, but it proves one thing. College basketball is WIDE OPEN, and an upset, whether it be Garnder Webb over Kentucky or UNT over OSU, is not as suprising as Appy State over Michigan in college football.
UNT played a really solid game, and I won't even begin to say it's because OSU played badly. After all, North Texas won their conference last year and, from what their alumns tells me, most of these guys are back. This does however make me shake my head at the Big XII. Get your shit together people, we're supposed to be a power conference.
Insert from Big -I really can't belive the UNT beat down of OSU. Its not like they pulled one out there ass and got lucky, they legit beat these guys. They were up 9 at half, and up 8 with 6 min left, and then won by 9. I know OSU is down, but hell, way to go Mean Green. And by the way, i really feel bad for Lynch's lady last night, she must of have North Texas Proud sex all up on her. gross.
