With opening tip-off just hours away, let’s celebrate the upcoming season with a hot new jam from the QN5 crew.
“This Year” features a sick beat from Kno, while Session and PackFM rock it over an accompanying montage of highlights from last season. I love the entire QN5 crew, and can’t wait to see Cunninlynguists in Bellingham, WA next month (Listen to their new single and pre-order their new album, Strange Journey Vol 2 here). But until then, let’s focus on some round ball. If you like the track, you can download it here.

Lakers in 5. Believe it.

Well, the start of NFL free agency is less than an hour away so I thought I’d weigh in with some predictions:
- T.J. Houshmadzadeh will sign with Tampa Bay. Seattle and SF are definite possibilities but I think the Bucs will get him in the end. The Bucs have been looking for a bonafide #1 Receiver for years, and they recently released Joey Galloway making it a necessity to sign another receiver. Housh is probably the best free agent WR of the last few years and the Bucs have 60+ Million of cap space to outbid all other suitors.
- Ray Lewis will sign with the Cowboys. Apparently, the Cowboys have freed up a bunch of cap space by releasing Roy Williams and Brad Johnson in an attempt to sign Lewis. It makes sense. Baltimore is in trouble, they are probably going to lose Bart Scott as well. What a tough position for them with Scott, Lewis and Suggs all being UFA’s at the same time.
- The Giants will add one of the big names on Defense, either Bart Scott or Albert Haynesworth. Really I think Haynesworth will go wherever he gets paid the most, so it could end up being TB.
- The Vikings will finally get a QB. Could be either Warner or Garcia.
- Marvin Harrison to the Eagles. It’s old news, I know, but I think it’s going to happen. It makes too much sense for it not to happen.
- The Raiders will probably overpay for at least one or two players because they have to.
- Rumor has it Rex Grossman is going to sign with the Lions. Poor Lions fans.

TW is poised to return to the PGA Tour later today, and you can follow all of his progress from the WGC Accenture Match Play on a slick new site whipped up by PGATour.com. Turns out people don’t give a crap about professional golf unless the G.O.A.T. is playing, so the PGA set up a slick little microsite where you can follow every Tiger detail throughout his comeback.
Click here to follow Tiger.
You’ll be able to watch each hole individually, view his updated scorecard, read commentary from an on-course blogger and find out what he ate for breakfast (we made that last one up).
Eldrick is scheduled to tee off at 2pm EST.

It’s official, the 2010 Olympic Games are less than a year away. As you can imagine, this has all the talking heads in Vancouver spewing ‘knowledge’ about who should represent Canada on this incarnation of Canada’s Mens hockey team. Stevie Y has his work cut out for him trying to erase the nations collective memory after Canada’s abysmal performance in the ’06 Olympics in Torino. Luckily for him, with the games being played on an NHL rink, the size/speed issues which hampered the ’06 team should be less of a factor. The smaller rink makes players like Joe Thornton a viable, if not necessary, option. In ’06, Thornton looked big and slow and his physicality was a non-factor against the smaller/faster European teams. Canada’s size should work to their advantage in 2010. Here is my roster for Team Canada. Keep in mind the team doesn’t have to finalize their roster until Dec. ’09 and the roster could change based on hot/cold streaks, injuries, etc:

I know this video has been around the block, but I really think Arizona is going to win on Sunday and I think Adrian Wilson will play a huge role. He is often overlooked as one of the NFL’s premier safeties, especially when he has to share the field with Polamalu (check out 43′s sick workout here). He’s been a Card forever, stayed with the team through all the rough times and is one of sport’s freakiest athletes. Don’t sleep on the Cards and don’t sleep on Adrian.
And check out this video of the evolution of an incredible painting of Adrian, which was commissioned by fellow Cardinal and Auburn alum Karlos Dansby.

Ravens @ Titans
Saturday 4:30 EST
This is the week the wheels fall off Kerry Collins‘ band wagon. After Ed Reed and Jesus Linebacker finish with him, Titans fans will be begging for the rollercoaster that is VY.
Joe Flacco will do just enough, the McGahee/McClain tandem will make all Scotsmen proud and B-More will advance.
On the bright side, lots of Country songs seem to be about sorrow and disappointment, so the Country crooners in Nashville should have lots to write about besides their dogs and pickup trucks.
Baltimore by 7
