Some college basketball news, and a warming update...

Lawrence Boogie Wright had yet another tremendous game yesterday...
27 points, 10 rebounds...in his team's 80-71 victory...

And something really ominous has clearly happened to Osiris Eldridge. His numbers have dropped way, way off.
In Saturday's game in which his team Karsiyaka won 91-82, Osiris was scoreless...he went 0-2 with just 2 rebounds.

In the Big Ten, as badly as Northwestern had begun to play with John Shurna ailing...they still put a whupping on Indiana. Northwestern got up big in the first half and became the first team in many years to come into Indiana's Assembly Hall and score 93 points! Matt Roth got five minutes and hit one of his shots.
His career average is now tailing down to only about 5 ppg (2 ppg this year), and although he got 16 minutes per game as a freshman -- over the games of the past 2 years -- he's gotten only about 5 minutes per game and only played a total of only a little over 50 minutes total in the past two seasons and in his career is 36% from 3-pt.

EX-Bradley recruit Ryne Smith, who is a sophomore at Purdue, was just named the Big Ten Co-Player of the Week along with Jared Sullinger.


The nation's leading junior college scorer is...
Widget Washington...26.7 ppg for the same junior college Rashad Austin played for, Northeastern Junior College. He's also averaging 8.5 assists per game (4th nationally) and 3.2 steals (16th nationally)!

Some might recall a teammate of Jereme Richmond at Waukegan named Quon Conner. Conner is also among the nation's junior college scoring leaders with 19.1 ppg at Kaskaskia.

Among junior college players who have attempted more than two 3-pt shots...
D'Mitri Riggs is the leader nationally hitting 33-57 at Wabash Valley, 58%!!



Non-sports...
Like I have been saying --a day doesn't go by without more proof that the global warming promoters were all wrong...
Count this global warming thing as yet another argument that we sensible and intelligent human have won...

Now even most of the far lefters, liberals, and global warming worshippers have given up and stopped using the term "global warming".
Wonder why -- because they now admit they were all wrong and the world is NOT warming...they instead are using terms like "climate change" and "weather catastrophe".

And why is all this happening?? Because they made so much money and benefitted so much with their global warming fraud, that they are trying like he** to salvage any respectability that might be left so they can jump on the next bandwagon and champion some new cause.

Don't be surprised if they try to champion global cooling -- seriously!!

December in Illinois was 5.8 degrees colder per day than average and was the 12th coldest December since records have been kept over the last 130 years.

Of course England has their coldest December in more than 100 years, and in some places temperature records have been kept for almost 400 years and it was the coldest December in history...maybe the coldest in 1000 years!!

Northern Ireland also had the coldest December in all of history.

All along the southeast from Jacksonville, FL to Cape Hatteras, SC it was the coldest December they have ever recorded.

And it goes on an on...reports from Oregon, California, Germany, China, even Antarctica all reporting not just cold temperatures, but the coldest record temperatures in 100 years!!
Here are some examples -- I have not converted these to links..just cut and paste URL's......

Oh -- but I have heard it is only happening in the northern hemisphere....yeah....sure...
I guess they don't bother to look -- it's happening everywhere.....
Australia has just had one of it's coldest and wettest summers in decades!!!

And even deadly COLD temperatures in South America!!

Cannot deny it -- no matter what the warmers keep saying...2010 was NOT one of the hottest years worldwide -- it was a surprisingly cold year all over...but I guess those warmers keep hand picking only the precise data they need to pick to prove their point, but we're on to them.
They are lying and using bogus data...and anyone with a thermometer knows the truth!





Hmmm...I can always know when others are talking about this blog or citing it because there are stats kept showing where all the hits come from, and precisely what pages there are links to this blog.
So it stumps me that people criticize yet cannot disprove anything said. One guy even claimed he got all riled up about the WNBA piece on this blog. As if I said anything at all that all those other sources I linked to did not say??
Go back and read it -- it's just a few facts already well documented elsewhere about how much of a terrible failure the WNBA is, how it would have all folded years ago had not the NBA kept pumping money into it, and how the stuff reported in the press suggesting that it's a success when supposedly one franchise made a profit for the first time in a couple decades (when they certainly did not if anyone actually checked the facts).
So in reality, the entry is not really about the WNBA as much as it is about how the media has bought so many lies about it and misrepresented it at the leading of the false press releases from the WNBA.
