I'll be filling in for Bob while he's on his European vacation, so let's try to make the best of this, shall we???-----------------------------------
Llosa/Wertheim: Yes. According to law enforcement documents we've reviewed, Matthews is not just on a customer list, as was reported Tuesday. In August 2004, he was allegedly sent Genotropin -- a brand of synthetic human growth hormone typically prescribed to children suffering from growth failure -- at an address in Mansfield, Texas. We traced the address and it is the residence of a former minor league teammate of Matthews', who told us that he is friends with Matthews.
SI.com: How did Matthews get a prescription?
Llosa/Wertheim: This, allegedly, goes to the root of what has prompted this massive investigation. According to the document we've reviewed, Matthews received the prescription through a doctor at Health Watch, a now-defunct anti-aging clinic in south Florida. According to the report, the drugs came from Applied Pharmacy services, a compound pharmacy in Mobile, Ala., which was raided last fall by the Drug Enforcement Agency (DEA). This shadowy nexis between anti-aging centers and compound pharmacies is at the heart of this multi-agency investigation.
A great game in Austin as Texas holds off the Aggies in double-overtime...another reminder to Longhorn fans to enjoy Kevin Durant while you still have him...

Despite the Vanderjagt failure last year, Jerry decides to shell out some money to keep punter Mat McBriar in Dallas for 5-more years...I think this investment will work out a little better than with Chris-Chris.

Forget that idea that Reggie Miller will be in a Mavs uniform...unfortunately, we will continue to have to watch the abortion that is his broadcasting career.

Note to Tsip: check out how Aggie tips his hat to Longhorn on a game well played, despite the fact he's trying not to throw up from that kick in the nuts. Quit being such a tool, Bentley.
Congrats sips, well played, though at home. Now all you have to do is beat Kansas for a 3 way tie.
Bentley, somehow I missed the hat-tipping in your very first, very gay comment. The kick in the nuts is that after the great season A&M has had, we just pooped away our chance for sole possession of the Big 12 title. The best A&M can hope for is a three way tie, if Whorn beats Kansas and A&M beats Mizzou. A good showing in the NCAA tournament will of course restore the flow of blood to my testicles.
The topic of rushing the court is quite possibly the most tired out debate of the CBB-themed internet, but please note that following an 18 point beatdown of Texas on Feb. 5, the Aggies did not rush the court.
In fact, the students of Texas A&M have not rushed the court all season. The last time the court was rushed was following LAST YEAR'S huge upset win by the Ags on a last second improbable shot. One of the bigger wins in A&M basketball history due to what the state of our basketball program had been in recent history.
But now that we have somewhat become more comfortable with the fact that our basketball team isn't terrible, you see us less jacked about winning conference games.
But you sure got us got Mr. Longhorn, we'll be sorry that we used to suck and now don't suck anymore and will certainly stop being excited about it.
Will Longhorn recover from this fact-checked punch to the nuts?
We shall see.
I don't think anyone's been hanging their hat on a 70-year-old title. But you stay classy, Whorn.
And frankly, I wouldn't be punching anyone in the nuts about rushing the court in a regular season game (even the Longhorns) if a) they'd sucked at basketball for most of their existence, 2) had recently gone oh-fer the conference and were coming up from rock bottom, and d) just beat their biggest rival. But that's just me.
Oh, and all the nuts talk is just me being polite. Judging from the bruises on your chin, I thought you liked them.
I'd like to tip my hat to today's blog, mainly because it has the highest percentage of offsides posts in recent memory.
Funny, damn funny.
"First?" is gay. That's all I meant. Sheesh, talk about persecution complex...
Otherwise, I think I'll just stick with "balls across the chin", and leave it at that.
Oh, and your mom.
Nice effort today, Ty.
The Mavs beat Lebron & Co., the Rangers sign Michael Young, the Stars play hockey, the Cowboys prepare for a draft, college hoops is getting ready for conference tourneys, and YouTube has unorganized entertainment.
All of this goes on, Bob leaves Ty in charge of the blog, and the ball gets dropped on Sports Friday heading into a Sports Weekend. I'm ashamed.
