Blazer offense sputters on Senior Night
By Dan Greene | Feb. 18, 2005, midnight | In Print »
FEB. 18, NELSON H. KOBREN MEMORIAL GYMNASIUM- After a resounding victory over Gaithersburg and a near win on the road at Wootton, Blair fell into their old habits on Senior Night tonight against Whitman, falling 59-45 to the Vikings. The Blazers' (2-17) ineffectual offense, including three points total in the second quarter, and frequent turnovers led to a blowout loss against a team that was far from Blair's toughest competition this season.

What the NHL Players Association needed during the last couple of months was some Dr. Phil. They needed to get real. This season went dark for five months because both sides were lazy in meeting and starting a real dialogue. But it ended because the union is blind to all the red ink this league has been hemorrhaging the last 10 years. And now, as a result, the league will need to dramatically overhaul their whole product, or risk oblivion.

An old leader dies, a new day dawns
By Rocky Hadadi | Feb. 17, 2005, midnight | In Print »
He was in the headlines for 55 years, glorified in the fight against Israel and known for violent tactics and hard-line ideology. To some he was a romantic revolutionary, the Middle Eastern counterpart to Communist poster-boy Ché Guevara and a hero to the Palestinian people. Now, Yasser Arafat's death has left a question mark in the middle of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.

Without a "Hitch"
By Nick Falgout | Feb. 17, 2005, midnight | In Print »
It's official: Will Smith can do anything. Quick addendum: Will Smith can do anything,assuming "anything” refers to playing cocky characters in highly entertaining films. Smith has always been good for a snarky line here, a goofy grin there. He doesn't disappoint in his romantic comedy debut, the light and witty "Hitch."
