Show & Prove: Part 2
What’s up family! By now you should have all read part 1 of my “Show and Prove” blog if not hurry and get to reading so you can dive into part 2 as I break down the Eastern Conference. Ah yes the Eastern Conference. If you guys have kept up with the show and I’m sure you have over the last couple of months the Knicks – Heat rivalry has become a hot topic on the set. Shaun Fontain and myself have been very adamant about the dominance that Miami will display in the playoffs and of course the Statman is ride or die for his Knickerbockers. In any event the Heat and the Knicks are only 2 of the 8 teams that will represent the Eastern Conference in this years playoffs and being that they are 1 and 2 we shall get to them later on in this blog. For now lets take it back to number the 8th seed and "Fear the Deer".

So now that football season is officially over and I’m not sweating out every playoff game that features the Ravens I figured I’d put out my next blog. The topic for today’s blog: Uncle Ray.

This blog is not just about the fact that no one was inducted into the MLB Hall of Fame this year, it's about performance enhancing drugs and the sad realities of cheating in sports in general.
