THE DAILY offers a sampling of what some local and national bloggers are dishing about this week.

BLOG NAME
WEB ADDRESS

Mark Packer writes of UGA’s attempts to end the “cocktail” reference for the annual Georgia-Florida football game, “Trying to stop a television network from using a term to describe one of the great spectacles in college football is embarrassing. The president should know better and he has overstepped his politically correct boundaries.”
Sportz Assassin’s Sports Journal sportzassassin.com
With the Knicks considering buying out Larry Brown’s contract, Sportz Assassin writes, “It is Brown’s boss, Isiah Thomas, that molded this roster in his own image.  It is Thomas, armed with owner James Dolan’s credit card, who blew this thing up.”

With the Indy 500 buzz ramping up around Danica Patrick, Dave Caldwell writes if she doesn’t succeed on the track, “In the long run, that could bring fewer fans to already thin grandstands (other than Indy, of course) and perhaps the eventual demise of open wheel racing as we know it.”

The Cavalier writes of Larry Miller’s claim that the Jazz have lost $25M over the past two seasons, “We don’t want to accuse an owner of doing something before they do so, but this looks suspiciously like step one in a multi-part plan to ask for a new arena.”
Hoops Addict hoopsaddict.com/blog
With Elgin Baylor winning the NBA Exec of the Year award, Ryan McNeill writes, “Sure it’s impressive what Baylor did the Clippers this season, but after trying for 20 years and failing miserable one successful season isn’t that big of a deal, is it? After having so many lottery picks he was bound to make the playoffs eventually.”
