Annonces sponsors Popers Blog 20/4/2011 - Boost for Egyptian sport? I was casting around for a positive story to put up today. And found this article online from the Egyptian IOC. Council member Rania El-Wani did an interview with Around the Rings yesterday, and said she thinks the revolution will be positive for sport in the country. El-Wani competed for Egypt in three Olympics, 1992, 1996 and 2000 in swimming. And won numerous medals at the World, African and Mediterrean games.

And no, it's not clear if she means male or female but at a punt I'd say male. And in an interesting sign of how politics can ripple out and effect sport, the article says: 'El-Wani expects Tripoli in Libya to drop out of the bid race for Mediterraean games due to unrest in the country, leaving the Egyptian bid facing competition from Rijeka in Croatia and Tarragona, Spain.'

(0):: 20/4/2011 - Worst of the Playoff Night: April 18, 2011 The Philadelphia 76ers: “If they’re playing great, they’re a better team, OK?
If they’re playing on top of their game, they’re a better team. I mean, they won 58, we won 41. That doesn’t mean that we aren’t going to play and compete and fight. But when they come out tonight and defend the way they didit’s going to be very difficult for us to beat them.” Here’s some bonus bawful from ESPN Stats and Information: The 76ers shot 34.2 percent from the field. Philadelphia has played 76 playoff games in the last 20 seasons and only had one where it shot worse — 33.8 percent in 2008 against the Pistons. The 76ers finished the regular season ranking in the top 5 in transition offense and led the NBA in transition points per game at 17.9.
The 76ers had plenty of opportunities on Saturday but were unable to convert. Nearly half (7) of the 76ers’ transition plays came in the first quarter when Philly jumped out to a 12-point lead. Doug Collins has brought his 3rd different team to the postseason and they’ve all suffered the same fate in Game 1.
All three teams lost Game 1 and the previous 2 were eventually swept out of the playoffs. The Chicago Bulls and expectations: Last night, the Bulls beat the Pacers and took a 2-0 series leadbut you’d hardly know it. Papku peredvizhku teatralizovannaya deyateljnostj doshkoljnikov.
Chicago shot 38.6 percent from the field, gave up 26 points off 22 turnovers and needed yet another fourth quarter outburst from Derrick Rose to eke out a victory against the Pacers. The Bulls won 62 games. The Pacers won 37. Why are these games close?
Is the sky falling?! Hold me, mommy, hold me!!! Look, the Bulls haven’t played particularly well in the first two games and the Pacers are giving everything they have to give. But, unless I’ve forgotten how to count, Chicago has won 11 games in a row and 23 of their last 25. Everybody is so busy worrying about why they aren’t winning by more that they seem to overlooking the fact that they aren’t losing. In Game 2, the Bulls shot poorly and were careless with the basketball. Furthermore, the Bench Mob, a vital part of their success all season, didn’t provide their usual spark.
They relied on defense (holding the Pacers to 90 points on 41 percent shooting and forcing 18 turnovers) and Derrick Rose (14 of his game-high 36 points in the fourth quarter including 8 in the final five minutes). And in case you haven’t been watching the Bulls this season, that describes many (if not most) of their victories. The Pacers have succeeded in making this a very physical series, which is funny, because I wouldn’t have considered them a physical team. They’ve turned the paint into a mosh pit and they’re abusing Rose every time he drives to the cup. Maybe they’re channeling the spirts of the 1991-92 New York Knicks.
I don’t know. But it’s been working so far. As for the Bulls, the expectations have gotten huge. Remember, many people (coughZachHarpercough) predicted that the Milwaukee Bucks would win the Central Division, you know? The Bulls managed to grind out a lot of wins through sheer effort, force of will, and Rose. But the fact remains, this is not the league’s most talented team.
