It's good to know that I am considered a boob and an imbecile because I enjoy watching sports.Heaven forbid I do nothing but wring my hands about the events of the day.Look, when I turn on the local news and hear about random murders taking place in my fair city, and that I could lose my job because the school I work for could be closed to try and help stave off a $1 billion deficit in the state, and that the mayor of the city is irrationally insulted because the president slighted our fair city by telling people to not blow their life savings here, guess what?I want to watch a basketball game to take my mind off of things.But the notion that sports fosters international conflicts? The absolutely ludicrous notion that it's sports metaphors that have fostered the dumbing down of political discourse in this country?You, sir, have got to be kidding me.Do some folks around the world care too much about sports?

Maybe, possibly even enough to challenge for 4th in the East and a legitimate second round playoff appearance.But it would almost certainly guarantee the Raptors would be a luxury tax paying team.Will MLSE permit Bryan Colangelo to enter luxury tax paying status?This resolve will almost certainly be tested when it comes time to offer Chris Bosh a new contract this summer.The only way max contract players have left their current teams under this CBA is when those teams were not willing to offer maximum dollars. Saban runs a tight and well-organized ship, so it's safe to assume that Dooley has a plan in place for gaining success in Knoxville.Having said that, here are five things I believe Dooley must do to have a long and fruitful career at Tennessee. 1. Will Vernon Wells Get Dealt? The Blue Jays are clearly playing for the future. He strikes me as the type of player that can hit a zone and go for 40 without blinking an eye World B Free without the flash.
