• Dust Bowl Blues: Phoenix Suns at Oklahoma City Thunder

  Recent headline: "Clippers Crush Thunder." Let's hope it's "Suns Burn Thunder" (don't think about that too literally) after tonight's game. But we digress: In what mad otherworld does the NBA's perennial doormat, the L.A. Clippers, crush anybody? Well, on November 19, the mantle of NBA's worst was seemingly passed from the hapless Clips to the laughable Oklahoma City Thunder when the Clippers thrashed OKC at home, 108-88. That term "at home" is a sticking point for non-Okie NBA fans, 'cause i

• Friday Night Lights Frenzy Starts This Afternoon

    It's one of our favorite times of the year, and not just because of all the great food and the blessed relief that temps under 100 degrees can bring. No, we're talking about the Arizona high school football championships, and all the goofy color and pagentry that the homestretch games can provide. This afternoon at 3 p.m., for example, Scottsdale Chapparal will take on Tucson Canyon del Oro at North Canyon High, which is up at 17th Street and Union HIlls. The two once-beaten teams are vyi

• Big Games Coming Up Tonight and Saturday in Tempe for ASU

  The ASU men's basketball team hasn't played in eight long days. It was back on January 21 that they squeaked by the Arizona Wsildcats in Tucson in a game that, safe to say, won't be placed into a time capsule for future generations to marvel at. Even the best of all the Sun Devils, the fabulous James Harden (slam-dunking in the photo below), had to battle his way through a tough shooting night. With that win, ASU now finds itself in a tie for second-place in the Pac-10 Confer

• ASU Sun Devils Victimized By Mad Bomber In Pac-10 Upset

  It was an unlikely coming-out party for Washington State freshman Klay Thompson at Wells Fargo Arena last night, as the rail-thin guard led the Cougars to a 65-55 upset over the Arizona State Sun Devils.  The son of former NBA player Mychal Thompson hit shots from all over the court, stealing the show from ASU star James Harden en route to a career high of 28 points. It got so that the crowd of about 10,000 grumbled and groaned every time the sweet-shooting dude (tha

• Weekend Sweep by Devils and 'Cats of LA Schools Sets Up Monster Matchup

  What was most (maybe the only thing) memorable about last night's Pac-10 slugfest between ASU and Southern Cal happened with about a minute left. USC head coach Tim Floyd (the oddly gesticulating gent in the photo) took such umbrage with a pivotal call against his squad that he felt compelled to whirl like a dervish from his bench completely across the court and halfway down the sideline. There, Floyd confronted the offending referee for what seemed like a minute or so

• Sun Devils In Latest "Game Of The Year" Tonight in Seattle

  After all is said and done in the regular college basketball season (that would be next weekend) and the Pac-10 conference tournament, the ASU Sun Devils and the Washington Huskies will find themselves playing somewhere in the Big Dance.  But all that seems so far away at the moment. At hand, in just a few hours (9 p.m. on KSAZ, Channel 34), the Devils and the Huskies will do battle up in Seattle for first place in the hotly contested league. The teams are tied for the lead w

The young woman, Jordan Scott, claims in a lawsuit filed in federal court on August 19 that a book she published online in 2006 has "striking, articulable and substantial similarities" to Meyer's fourth novel, Breaking Dawn.

Not only have they released a brand new CD (The Last of the Popstars), they've also been gigging all around the Valley, and held a rather swank release party at the W Scottsdale. The hits just keep on coming, as Silver Medallion released their latest music video online earlier today and it's quite epic. Filmed and edited by
