89 Points

Before the NBA Lockout was agreed to be done, there were other players putting in major work on the court. Example? Griffin Lentsch. This guy, a junior who plays for the high scoring Grinnell College in Iowa set a Division 3 record 89 points for the most points in a single game in their 145-97 win against Principia College. He ended the game shooting 27 of 55 from the field, 20 of 22 from the free throw line, and 15 of 33 from the three point line. This means that if he made more shots he couldn't easily better the NCAA record of 112. AMAZING WERE HARD WORK WILL GET YOU!!

Foul Language

By: Willie Waters III

At half time of their game against the New England Patriots, the New York Jets were headed into the locker room. As they were headed in, a New England fan yells to Coach Ryan, "Hey Rex, Belichick is better than you." In response to the fan's comment, Coach Ryan yells back, "Shut Up!!", while using an obscenity. Despite his day later apology, stating that the indigent was "a mistake", he was fined $75,000.

Although I do agree with the fact that he should have simply keep things professional, I think that his penalty is an outrage. He was fined $75,000 for cursing. Something that is done in every day life. Yes it was to a fan, and yes he shouldn't have said it but that is TOO much for cursing. Honestly if it was me I wouldn't have apologize for that if I had to pay that amount. I would've made it CLEAR that I meant EVERY word. But thats just me.

Lockout Is Over!!

By: Will Waters III

As of November 26th, after a 15 hour negotiation session,  the lockout is officially over! The players, less enthused, agreed on a 10 year deal with the owners whereas the players receive 51 percent and the owners 49 percent. Each side has a chance 2 opt out of this contact after six years. Now the 149 day lockout is over and the season will consist of 66 games, compared to the regular 82 game season. The season will kick off with a Christmas delight on December 25 with Dallas vs Miami, Boston vs New York, Los Angles vs Chicago, Orlando vs Oklahoma City, and Golden State vs LA Clippers.

This is great. Even though both sides didn't receive what they wanted, the deal that they did revise, I believe, is a for the best. I sympathize with the players because they physically play the game and I believe they deserve more money, but its for the best because otherwise millions and millions of dollars would have been missed out on if a deal wasn't put in place. What I heavily believe that, even though 6 years its some players careers, after 6 years the owners will have made the money that they have been trying to get and the deal can be revised once again. Who knows what the future of the NBA holds. For one it holds an amazing line up for Christmas that is SURE to very interesting. Stay Tuned...
