    It’s not a far stretch to compare the city of Phoenix to hell with temperatures that top 110 degrees in the month of July. While the temperatures soar, Phoenix sports plunges into the depths.

    The Phoenix sports scene seems to be in complete turmoil. The Coyotes are on the brink of extinction. The Suns are facing the biggest turning point possibly in franchise history. The Diamondbacks seem to have failed in their attempt to run a low budget production and the Cardinals find themselves in the midst of contract disputes despite the fact that they made their first trip to [...]

    With the great success that JJ Abrams has seen at the box office with his remake of Star Trek it got us at Fanster thinking. If you could have JJ Abrams remake any Phoenix sports team over the last forty years, who would it be and why? Greg Esposito: It would have to be the 1999 Arizona Diamondbacks. That team was probably the most talented Diamondbacks team [...]

In fact, ESPN's basketball stats guru John Hollinger has placed the Suns' chances at making the playoffs at 33.1 percent, or roughly the same chance that a Goran Dragic jump shot has of going through the [...]

    With 19 games left in the NBA regular season, the Phoenix Suns currently sit one spot out of the Western Conference playoffs, trailing the #8 seed Dallas Mavericks by four games. With a win tonight against those same Mavs, the Suns would still be three games out with 18 to go. Even if the Suns were to go 14-4 in those 18 games, the Mavs would only need to finish [...]
