(Wrong) Way to Go, Nate!

New York area sports have triumphed in the past few years- the Giants and Eli Manning represent the city well in the NFL, and won a Super Bowl in 2007; the Yankees won the World Series this past season, and the Rangers and New Jersey Devils have boasted successful ice hockey teams.
The praise for NY sports stops when you talk about the NBA.
The Big Apple is represented by the Knicks and the (New Jersey) Nets. The Knicks are 3-18 with many woes and close games. The Nets have a zero in the win column and are still seeking their first win after 13 losses.
Going into Saturday's game, the Nets probably felt confident. They were playing a (then) 2-17 team and their most valuable player, Devin Harris, would be returning from a sidelining groin injury.
Despite playing a good game, Harris wasn't the star of the game.
No, that title belongs to Knicks guard Nate Robinson.
With his team up 98-91 and milliseconds remaining in the game, Robinson made a buzzer shot. In the oppo-Nets (haha, get it?) basket. Despite the fact it didn't count, Robinson's teammates seemed disgusted, and it was obvious Knicks' coach Mike D'Antoni was. D'Antoni chewed Robinson apart once he got to the bench, however, Robinson played in the Celtics/Knicks game.

Maybe this is why so many hoops fans favor NCAA basketball over the NBA? Superfluous attitude, arrogance and a whole lot of nerve were displayed with the shot. You don't see that kind of stuff in college hoops.
Perhaps the frat-boy is more mature than the professional basketball player.

The NEW UPDATED Abby Road Sports

In order to connect with everybody, I now have an official:

• AIM/AOL
• Windows Live
• Yahoo
• Gmail
• Facebook
• Twitter

All of the accounts are "abbyroadsports". Feel free to follow us on Twitter, add us as friends on Facebook, send me an email on Yahoo, or hit me up on AIM.

On Twitter, I am going to update it whenever I have a new story, and post a link. It's hard to put my story up in 140 characters. I will do the same on the "status updates" through Facebook, Yahoo, AIM, and Windows.

On Facebook, I will post the stories in their entirety through notes.

I really think that in this digital age, social networking is nothing but good.

The blog will be updated several times a week. Posts regarding sports will start up again, but we're currently in the rebuilding process (much like the Pittsburgh Pirates). Bear with us; we'll be ready to blog about anything and everything soon enough.

The Best Is Yet To Come

I will be returning shortly with new content on this blog. I'm also thinking about starting a Wordpress version of the blog. Facebook and Twitter accounts are also possible.

Be back soon with even more sports information!
