Big doings in Miami this weekend with the Chicago Bears and Indianapolis Colts clashing in the SUPER Bowl and I think its Colts time in South Beach, the Colts are a 7 point favorite and I don猡乼 know if they猡乴l cover that but I think the Colts will win in a close one. I have been asked about Payton Manning and his standing as a great quarterback. Well my two favorites are Johnny Unitas and Sammy Baugh, others I put in the star quarterback category are Sid Luckman, Terry Bradshaw, John Elway, Joe Montana, Otto Graham, Bart Stan, Sonny Jurgeson, Bob Waterfield, Bobby Layne, Paul Christman, and Roger Staubach. Also I have been asked about linebackers, of course Brian Urlacher and Raghead Ray Lewis are the best today but how can you forget Bill Pellington, Chuck Bednarik, Dick Butkus, Ray Nitchi, Sam Huff, Chuck Drazonvich and Roger Zatkoff. Oh well, it should be a good one on Sunday.

Terrapins Fall 84-71 In Front Of Record Crowd Maryland couldn't hold off the second-ranked Tar Heels in an ACC showdown.
North Carolina waited 20 minutes to find someone who could put the ball in the basket with a measure of consistency. Ivory Latta happily assumed the role, and her sharp-shooting enabled the No. 2 Tar Heels to remain unbeaten and extract a measure of revenge against third-ranked Maryland . Latta scored 22 of her season-high 32 points in the second half Sunday night, leading North Carolina past the defending national champions 84-71. The sellout crowd of 17,950 was the largest to watch a women's basketball game in Atlantic Coast Conference history, surpassing the 17,243 that viewed the Terrapins' loss to Duke in February 2005. Maryland has hosted the top five crowds in ACC history. Most in attendance Sunday will remember the performance of Latta, a 5-foot-6 senior guard who sank four 3-pointers in the opening five minutes of the second half to give the Tar Heels a 55-35 lead. "I definitely got into a groove because my teammates found me," Latta said. "I was confident I'd hit the shot." Latta went 3-for-8 in the first half, when the Tar Heels (23-0, 7-0) shot 34 percent in taking a 35-27 lead. She finished 9-for-18, including 6-for-10 beyond the arc, and was 8-for-8 at the foul line. "She looked pretty darn good tonight," Maryland coach Brenda Frese said. Erlana Larkins had 20 points and 13 rebounds, and Camille Little scored 17 points for the Tar Heels, whose 23-game winning streak is longest in the nation. North Carolina and top-ranked Duke, which handed Maryland its other defeat this season, are the lone remaining unbeaten teams in the nation. North Carolina lost only two games last season - both to Maryland . The first loss came in overtime during the regular season, and the second came in the semifinals of the Final Four. "We just tried to play our game and stay focused," Latta said. Shay Doron led Maryland (21-2, 5-2) with 19 points and Crystal Langhorne added 14 points and 10 rebounds. The Terps committed 21 turnovers and shot 39 percent. "We felt like if we pressured them with different looks, we could force them into turnovers," North Carolina coach Sylvia Hatchell said. "I guess it worked." The Terrapins waited too long to match the intensity of their enthusiastic fans. Maryland fell behind with five minutes elapsed and never caught up, crumbling under a series of turnovers and missed shots. "For 30 of the 40 minutes, we were on the back of our heels, just making soft passes and not displaying the type of confidence we usually have on the offensive end," Frese said. "Anxiousness, nerves, you 爊ame it. We've got to find a way to get our swagger back." Maryland trailed 65-59 before Doron hit a 3-pointer, Kristi Toliver scored in the lane and Doron added a short jumper to make it 67-66. Larkins followed with a layup, however, and a jumper in the lane by Latta put North Carolina up 71-66 with 2:02 remaining. Little then hit a short jumper, and two foul shots by Latta gave the Tar Heels a nine-point cushion with one minute to go. "We didn't play well, and a lot of that was dictated by Carolina 's defense," Frese said. "It took a lot of courage to step up and play the way we did the last 10 minutes." North Carolina limited the Terrapins to 22 percent shooting and forced 14 turnovers in taking a 35-27 halftime lead. Playing in a charged atmosphere usually reserved for the postseason, both teams appeared jittery at the outset. Despite going 2-for-10 with five turnovers in the opening five minutes, Maryland trailed only 7-6 because the Tar Heels missed eight of their initial 11 field-goal tries. With eight minutes elapsed, Langhorne was 2-for-3 from the floor and the rest of the Terrapins were 1-for-12. At that point, North Carolina finally found its shooting touch. Little hit a jumper in the lane and added a layup before Larkins scored on a driving layup and nailed a 15-footer to cap an 8-0 run that made it 20-9. After Frese called a timeout, Doron hit a jumper to end a scoring drought of more than five minutes. Soon after that, however, Heather Claytor and Latta each made a 3-pointer in an 8-2 spurt that put the Tar Heels up 29-15. The Terrapins closed to 33-27 before the usually reserved Frese went onto the floor to complain after Toliver appeared to be fouled in the backcourt. Frese was called for a technical foul, and Latta made both free throws.

She also holds a number of school records, including points in a single season (686). Bullett was the Most Valuable Player of the 1989 ACC Tournament and was named to two NCAA all-region teams in 1988 and 1989. Bullett is a two-time Olympian, helping the U.S. women win a gold medal in 1988. She was also named to the ACC's 50th Anniversary team.

BULLDOGS KNOCK OFF JOHNSON C. SMITH 99-88
Four of five Bowie State starters scored in double figures and three of those five scored 20 points or more, guiding the Bulldogs to a 99-88 rematch victory over Johnson C. Smith. So far this season, when Bowie State scores 90 or more points, they are undefeated at 7-0. The win improves Bowie State 猡乻 Bulldogs to 11-5 on the year and 7-5 in the CIAA. The men must have been watching the BSU/JCSU women猡乻 game as the Golden Bulls held a 17-8 first half lead at the 11:34 mark. Well, the BSU Bulldogs followed the lead of the ladies and tied the game at 17-17 on senior Gil Goodrich猡乻 3-pointer with 9:32 remaining before the half. Bowie State kicked it up a notch or two from that point, going on a 22-5 run to open a 39-22 Bulldogs lead with 4:02 left before the break. Johnson C. Smith cut their deficit to eight points by halftime, trailing only by a 48-40 margin. Ryan Scott narrowed the gap to five points (52-47) on one of his five 3-point buckets at the 16:35 mark of the second half. This is where the Bowie State Bulldogs erupted for another run (12-4) to extend its lead to 64-51 and upped their advantage to 19 points (79-60) with 8:25 left to play. The Golden Bulls managed to trim the Bowie State lead to 88-80 by the 2:13 mark on a lay-up by Maurice Hooper. Johnson C. Smith would get no closer, dropping its record to 9-6 overall and 7-4 in the CIAA. Goodrich led Bowie State with a game-high 27 points, hit a perfect 10-of-10 from the free throw line, dished out a season-high 11 assists and accounted for seven rebounds. Senior Tyronne Beale recorded his fourth double-double of the season, scoring 26 points and hauled down a game-high 10 rebounds for the Bulldogs. Junior猡乻 Orlando Wright and Jason Ingram put 22 and 10 points respectively in the BSU scorebook and senior Corey Scott rounded out the starters with six points and seven rebounds. Junior Joshua Johnson came off the Bulldogs bench to block a game-high four shots and added seven points and eight rebounds. The Golden Bulls were paced by Hooper with 19 points and Scott with 18 points. Johnson C. Smith猡乻 Jerry Hollis and Jerome Givens scored 15 points each on the night. Hollis and Scott tied the visiting Golden Bulls with a team-high seven rebounds each.
BOWIE STATE SHOOTS HOLES IN VIKINGS
SHIP
Bulldogs Outgun Elizabeth City State 109-101
BSU senior point guard Gil Goodrich, the leading scorer in the NCAA and a leading candidate for CIAA Player of the Year, exploded for 30 second half points to help guide the surging Bulldogs to a 109-101 divisional win over the Elizabeth City State Vikings. Bowie State ups its record to 12-5 overall, 8-5 in the CIAA and 4-2 in the East. Senior Tyronne Beale was BSU猡乻 go to guy in the first half of play, scoring 18 points on nine-of-14 shooting from the floor. Elizabeth City State led only once at 7-6 on a jumper by Jamal Rouse. The Vikings hung tough early despite shooting just 31.0 percent (13-of-42) in the first half. Bowie State knocked down 19-of-37 first half field goals (51.4 percent) and led 42-35 when the 1,296 in attendance stepped out for halftime concessions. Elizabeth City State trimmed their first half deficit to 49-47 by the 16:46 mark of the second half. However, Bowie State went on a 20-5 run over the next 3:42 to extend its lead to 69-52. Goodrich scored 18 points during that run, mostly reining 3-pointers as if they were lay-ups. The Bulldogs opened its largest lead of the game at 75-59 on a Jason Ingram (14 points) lay-up with 11:40 remaining in the game. The Vikings had a run of their own (15-6) to close the gap to 81-76, ending with a jumper by ECSU猡乻 C.J. Pigford. Back-to-back field goals by BSU猡 Goodrich along with a lay-up and free throw by Beale pushed the Bowie State advantage to 89-76. However, Elizabeth City State 猡乻 Devin Mooring capped off a 7-0 Vikings run, cutting BSU猡乻 lead to six points at 89-83. Unfortunately, that would be as close as the Vikings would get. The Vikings shooting percentage improved to 56.5 percent in the second half (26-of-46) but so did Bowie State 猡乻. The Bulldogs converted 20-of-31 second half field goals (64.5 percent) which translated into 57.4 percent overall for Bowie State. Whenever Bowie State shoots over 50 percent in game猡乻 this season, the Bulldogs hold an unblemished record of 9-0. Furthermore, Bowie State is 8-0 in games when the Bulldogs score over 90 points. The Bulldogs were led by Goodrich with a game-high 36 points and a game-high nine assists. Other top scorers for Bowie State include Beale with 29 points and junior Orlando Wright with 18 points. Ingram and Joshua Johnson led BSU on the boards with eight rebounds each, Elizabeth City State (9-10, 5-7, 2-3) was paced by Pigford猡乻 20 points and 11 rebounds, both team highs. Anthony Hilliard and Mooring scored 15 points a piece and Rouse added another 11 points for the Vikings. Bowie State University will welcome Fayetteville State University to the A.C. Jordan Arena 猡 Saturday (2/3) for a live CIAA, Urban Sports Network television broadcast. The Broncos and Bulldogs will hit the air at 5:00 p.m.
BSU LADY BULLDOGS WIN FOURTH STRAIGHT
Lady Bulldogs Sweep Johnson C. Smith 58-50
The Lady Bulldogs of Bowie State University made it a regular season sweep over Johnson C. Smith University, beating the Lady Golden Bulls 58-50. With the victory, Bowie State improves its record to 12-5 overall and 8-3 in the conference. Johnson C. Smith (10-8, 5-6 in the CIAA) came into BSU猡乻 A.C. Jordan Arena pumped and led Bowie State by seven (11-4) with just over 13 minutes left in the first half. Sophomore Sherika Thomas (12 points) came off the Lady Bulldogs bench to spark the home team. Thomas first hit a 3-pointer to trim the deficit to 13-11 and then tied the game at 14 at the 6:33 mark of the first half with her second 3-pointer. This seemed to ignite her teammates as Bowie State closed the first half with a 15-4 run and held a 29-18 advantage at the half. Bowie State maintained a double-digit lead for most of the second half. The Lady Golden Bulls made a charge late in the second half, cutting the Bowie State lead to just three points (45-42) with 6:23 left in the game, courtesy of two free throws by Rochelle Bodie. However, that猡乻 as close as JCSU would get for the remainder of the game. Tiana Pope led Johnson C. Smith in scoring with 20 points and Shemika Jones added another 13 points off the Lady Golden Bulls bench. Bodie pulled down a game-high 15 rebounds to lead both teams to go along with four points. Bowie State junior Crystal Johnson led the Lady Bulldogs with a season-high 14 points, hitting six-of-11 field goal attempts. Junior Allyson Swailes and sophomore Markeya Watson contributed 11 and 10 points respectively in the BSU victory. Watson also paced Bowie State with a team-high nine rebounds.
LADY BULLDOGS STREAK STOPPED AT FOUR
Elizabeth City State Takes 80-69 Decision Over Bowie State
Elizabeth City University pulled away from Bowie State University late in the second half to beat the Lady Bulldogs 80-69. The loss snapped a Lady Bulldogs four game win streak and drops BSU猡乻 record to 12-6 overall, 8-4 in the CIAA and 2-3 in the East. Bowie State led much of the first half before a 3-point bucket by Elizabeth City State 猡乻 Tanika Hudgins at the 6:07 mark, giving the Lady Vikings all the lead they would need at 19-18. The Lady Vikings went on a mini 7-2 run over the next 2:59 and held 33-28 lead at halftime. Neither team shot very well in the first 20 minutes. Elizabeth City State hit 12-of-31 from the floor (38.7 percent), which included five-of-13 from behind the arc. Bowie State converted 12-of-41 first half field goal attempts (29.3 percent) but made only one-of-five from beyond the 3-point line. Elizabeth City State extended its halftime lead to 11 points (43-32) early in the second half before Bowie State roared back to within four points twice, 48-44 at the 12:10 mark and again at 51-47 with 10:41 left to play. Unfortunately, the Lady Bulldogs missed too many in close opportunities down the stretch. ECSU猡乻 Lady Vikings were led by Celeste Trahan猡乻 game-high 26 points. The Lady Vikings猡 Deanna Price recorded her fourth career triple-double, scoring 13 points, ripped down 10 rebounds and handed out 10 assists. Hudgins and Joyce Freeman chipped in 13 points each for Elizabeth City State . The win keeps Elizabeth City State perfect in the division at 5-0 and improved the team to 14-5 overall and 11-1 in the CIAA. Junior Allyson Swailes led Bowie State 猡乻 Lady Bulldogs with a team-high 22 points and a game-high 16 rebounds. Fellow junior Crystal Johnson added 17 points and sophomore Sherika Thomas accounted for 11 points off the bench. Bowie State will now prepare for a Saturday (2/3) rematch with the Fayetteville State Lady Bronco猡乻. Tip-time in BSU猡乻 A.C. Jordan Arena will be 2:00 p.m. For additional information about Bowie State women猡乻 basketball, contact the Office of Sports Information or log on to www.bsubulldogs.com.

Well its Super Bowl time and I have heard from several animal lovers demanding that the State of Florida and the US government should stop the Super Bowl this week until Indianapolis and Chicago stop using the nicknames of Colts and Bears, they defame those animals and is unfair to them. Hey how about those Baltimore Orioles? They have become a disgrace to the bird population of this world. Remember the Chesapeake Tide starts its indoor arena football league season at the Show Place Arena in Upper Marlboro on April 1st, and that is no joke! Congratulations to Kimmie Meissner, Roger Federer, Serena Williams and Tiger Woods on their big wins. St. John猡乻 High School (DC) had sharp shooter Chris Wright go over the career 2,000 point mark last week. Wright is headed to Georgetown . The Cadets 6猡10 senior Vlad Moldoveanu is headed to George Mason. The Cadets are the number 4 ranked boys high school team in the Washington Post Top Twenty rankings. Happy Birthday to Dale Poole Sawyer, she celebrated her 39th on January 29th. Great article in the Washington Time on Neal Henderson and the great job he does for youth hockey in DC. Annapolis Area Christian School is starting football and they have chosen former Gonzaga high school coach Kenny Lucas to handle the start up, they will play in M.I.A.A. 猡猡? conference. Can you believe Owner Abe wants the DC taxpayers to pay for a 50 miilion dollar renovation of the Verizon Center and he will raise ticket prices. Hey I wonder if Owner Abe will move out of DC and go to Virginia if the city doesn猡乼 cough up the green to do it. After all he dissed Baltimore and Prince George 猡乻 County and I don猡乼 think Maryland would take a third strike to get his occupants back so the only area option left is Virginia . Hey what happened to murder in DC with the name change from Bullets to Wiz? What ever happened to two of Owner Abe猡乻 partners Arnold and Len? They must have a lot of people who want to give money away with Owner Abe raising the luxury boxes from $100,000 to $450,000 annually. When was the last time Owner Abe猡乻 Wiz won an NBA title? How much longer can the WNBA last? Also how much longer can the Caps last there? Don猡乼 those new underwear uniforms the Wiz wear look like the old Baltimore Bullets one? Why not bring an NBA team to Baltimore ? Owner Abe wouldn猡乼 want to come back to Baltimore . Our deepest sympathy goes to State Senator Brian Frosh and his family on the death of his father Judge Stanley B. Frosh. Our deepest sympathy also goes to the families of: L. Myrtle Nolen Bagley, (former teacher at Anacostia and Ballou high schools) William H. Dix (graduate of Western (DC) high school and GWU) Francis E. Flanagan (graduate of Anacostia high school and the University of MD ) Eileen Bennett Shinlot (graduate of Imaculate Conception Academy (DC) John Wade Rice, Jr. (Western high school (DC) Bing Devine (former St. Louis Cardinal GM) The Nationals Ryan Zimmerman is on the verge of being a hugh superstar. If John Patteson is fully recovered he too can join Ryan on that level. The Baltimore Orioles have solified their hold on fourth place in the American League East. Look-a-Likes: Wayne Gretzky and Robert Barber Laura Ingram and Shirley Brown Frank Shore and the late Johnny Unitas James Caan and Dr. Michael Salcman The late Jeannette Bode and the late Jayne Mansfield I understand that simple Simon is delivering pies and cakes in Annapolis again. The Old Timers Baseball in Baltimore inducted Paul DiPino, Sr., Gary Lindamood, Lefty Elliott and James Walczak into the Hall of Fame. Special Awards went to Ken Pakulski, Man of the Year Award, and Bernie Walter, John Steadman High School Coach Award before 200 at the Clubs January 19th dinner. Oxon Hill猡乻 Cara Hill is having a SUPER year as Captain of the Villa Julie Women猡乻 Basketball team. Hats off to Colonel Richardson High School 猡乻 Vermara Trott on a 32 point, 28 rebound game that pushed her over a 1,000 point career mark. The Polar Bear Plunge sponsored by the Maryland State police raised over 2 million dollars for the Special Olympics. Congratulations to the State Police and Plungers for this great event.
