Just about an hour ago, Reggie Theus, Sacramento Kings head coach was fired from the organization. I for one am a little disappointed. I thought he was a classy guy who had been dealt a horrible hand... including an unhealthy team.

The only thing that makes me think this could have been a good move is that it is reported Theus has alienated his teammates, Geoff Petrie, and the Moloofs. Probably not the best people to alienate. Then again, IS there anyone else to alienate?

Who/What WILL the Maloofs look to blame the rest of this year? Who will be the scapegoat? Listen, if you want to use the new younger guys, develop them, get them experience - then by golly you're going to lose some games. Let's not forget to put some of the responsibility of this crappy season on the players. Brad Miller, who has been one of my favorite players (as far as value to the team), has all but checked out. Smoking pot, yelling at refs, complaints, bad attitude on the court. Dude - he is the $11 million dollar man this year and should be leading by example. Some example Brad.

Sadly, I still remain a fan... I still believe. I don't need the grief but choose to hold on to hope!

Seriously folks, this is probably the best rendition of the Star Spangled Banner ever sung.

The National Anthem was sung on February 9th at a Texas Tech basketball game. Here's what makes it so amazing... it was sung by two 6yr olds, two 7yr olds and an 8yr old.

The entire arena stood in silence the entire time. You could have heard a pin drop... at a Texas Tech game - are you kidding me?  (click National Anthem if you don't see the video above)

The two girls on the right are 6. The two in the middle are 7 and the one on the left is 8. This is WELL WORTH your time.

Have a great weekend.
