TGISports early weekend highlights


ASU's defense tore up UCLA - It's amazing that even though Arizona State's defense tied an NCAA record with 4 touchdowns, this game was still somewhat of a disappointment for the Devils. The offense could only muster 2 field goals all night, and one of them was set up by a 63-yard punt return. Right now Rudy Carpenter looks like the writers for Heroes: lost, confused, and waiting for the season to be over.

Boise state goes undefeated, nobody cares - For the 2nd time in 3 years, the Broncos are undefeated. When are they going to realize the BCS doesn't give a damn about them and start losing a few games? I mean, what's the point in beating Wichita State every year if no one is going to watch? I'm not providing a link here because, even if I did, no one would click it.

ASU Bball played late for some reason - Kudos to ESPN2 for covering this game, but why did it start at 12:45 ET? Did James Harden have a 36-hour Thanksgiving or something?

Dwayne Wade is the Suns' daddy - I bet Shawn Marion (pictured above being on a crappy team) was smiling after Wade laid 43 on the Suns on Friday night. The Heat (who lost by 38 to Portland on Wednesday, mind you) looked like Oklahoma to the Suns' Texas Tech.

Charles Barkley is right - “If I was LeBron James, I would shut the hell up,” the Hall of Famer said on Patrick’s show. “I’m a big LeBron fan. He’s a stud. You gotta give him his props. I’m getting so annoyed he’s talking about what he’s going to do in two years. I think it’s disrespectful to the game. I think it’s disrespectful to the Cavaliers.” (source Yahoo.com) Nothing more to add really, if Lebron loves NYC so much, just get the hell out of Cleveland right now and don't bother waiting till 2010.
