Travis joins Luke Lapinski and myself for the Friday edition of The Show To Be Named Later on Fanster.com.
Segment 1 (0:00) - ASU may have strangled its own chances for an [...]

Remember all the talk about how hard it is to beat a team three times in one season?
Turns out it's true.
Arizona State's stay at this year's Pacific Life Pac-10 Tournament in Los Angeles was a brief one. The Sun Devils slogged their way to a 70-61 loss to 7th-seeded Stanford on Thursday night, eliminating them from the tournament, and possibly (probably) costing them an [...]

Things looked pretty good for the Arizona State Sun Devils with 11 minutes to go in their gigantic Pac-10 matchup against California.
Jamelle McMillan had just canned a three-pointer to pull the Devils within 2 points at 44-42. The game to that point was a tough, defensive struggle, much to the liking of ASU head coach Herb Sendek.
But from that point on, Cal's defense simply [...]

This column would have been done sooner, but I spent a few days partying with the Canadian women’s hockey team, and I’m not even sure what country I’m from right now.
