Congratulations Vandals winning a conference game over NMSU. Good Luck this weekend against San Jose! Maybe two in a row. O my Achey breaky heart. Rob Ackey would have to do a little line dancing.

On the eve of Phelps wining his 8th gold medal, Mark Spitz predicted Michael Phelps would surpass his record of 7 gold medals in the Summer Olympics. In the NBC interview Spitz passed the torch and the responsibility of being an Olympic hero. Spitz was gracious with comments and Phelps was humble in receiving them. Both men showed great sportsmanship and are worthy of the title of Olympic Hero

The 11-0 Spokane Shock takes on their old players as the South Georgia Wildcats Come to town. Hines and Savage know the Shocks offense and defense schemes from a year ago. Coach Shackleford will have a few new wrinkles to welcome his former players home. Shackleford will exploit Hines' weakness and keep the ball out of Savage's and Berry's hands when ever possible. Look for Parks to step up

At 7-2 the Stockton Lighting was everyones easy game. That was the way it was the first time they played. But, that team was not the sameone that showed up this time. Literally, Stockton has been revamped, including a new hot shot head coach and six AFL experienced players. Stockton is feeling real good about themselves right now. Coming out and dominating Spokane in the 2nd and 3rd quarters

First of all I never met Shaun but, you just have to love the guy. He got the MVP and next year he is making time to buy pizza for a couple of Cheney kids during training camp. There is a lot more than a football player in him. It is humility. Granted the last two seasons there has been alot more to be humble about. Shaun has something you can't buy and that is character.NFL teams have taken

8-0 Spokane Shock, set a franchiese record start. That is saying alot considering the quality of Spokane pedigree. Coach says, We hoped to be 6-2 or 7-1 at this point. That is a tribute to the what this years team is accomplising.This year it seems like the Shock has been on the road alot. Out of town almost the whole month of April. I guess down the road we will get a long home stand at the

The Spokane Chiefs are the unexpected winners of the Memorial Cup. The local Spokane buzz about the Chief is that at the begining of the season is that we would hope that we would be competitve after a couple of rebuilding years. Then of hope as the chiefs were right in the thick of a hotly contested conference. Maybe the Tri-City Americans could have gone all the way. Tri-Cities gave Spokane

The series is 3-2. If the Tri-city Americans lose one more. That is it for them. They are out of here and the Chiefs win the Play-off. Victory has eluded Spokane in the last couple of years.

Ah, spring. Visions of youth soccer. Big balls of 6 year olds kicking and pushing their way to the ball and the glory of the net. Lines of parents rooting their kids on to victory. I too am a proud parent of a young soccer star. Three games so far, no one keeps score and kids burning up limitless supplies of energy. I am proud of my little star. Love you Cami.

Shaun Alexander was released from the Seahawks. So what is next for the Seahawks and then for Shaun. The Seahawks will try to breath life to the RB's with Jones and Duckett. Morris is still in there. It is anticipated that Seattle will go to RB by committee. Jones is use to that sharing time with Barber in Dallas. Shaun will try to get on with another team. He might have a rap against him

The Zags are out can you believe that. Zags where supposed to be the best hope for Spokane Sports. Now the Cougs are our only hope. That is why you have to play the game.
