The Sport's Abyss

By Tyler Savage

Just when you think things couldn't get any better in the sports world...beware, the worst time of the year is quickly approaching. With the bowl season, and the NFL playoffs starting soon, right now is arguably the best time for sports. However, once the NFC/AFC championships end, we enter the real sport's abyss (P.A and Dubay will tell you that the abyss comes after the NBA Finals in the summer, but they are wrong).

The months of February and March could be the longest two months that there are. All that we have are Hockey, the NBA, and March Madness. If this had been 1988, we would be in for a sport's treat. It is not 1988, and all of these sports have gone straight to the crapper. Why did these sports get so bad? There are too many reasons, and I do not have the energy to go in depth. Here is the summary of why these sports went bad: Jordan was too good; the NHL gave out way to much money, and lost ESPN; and Kevin Garnett single handedly destroyed NCAA Basketball.

So...remember to enjoy these next few weeks of football. There will be two long months until the American Pastime starts up again. If you are dying for something to watch, check out American Gladiators II (Nitro's Revenge), it could be more exciting then Kobe Bryant and the NBA.
