Risser’s Ramblings – Sports Along the Line

August 19, 2011 by Bill Risser Leave a Comment

Think ASU linebacker Vontaze Burfict will be fun to watch? These guys do: Walter Camp Award, Bronco Nagurski Award, Lombardi Award, Butkus Award and the Bednarik Award. All have Vontaze on their pre-season watch lists… The latest holder of the title “Comeback Kids” has to be the Arizona Diamondbacks. After 124 games and 69 wins, 35 of those wins were come from behind… Great season but tough ending for the Rattlers. 73-70 loss on a TD with no time on the clock in the Championship Game … After the Georgetown men’s basketball team massive brawl in China, will locked out Suns or other NBA players still go there? Probably not. China announced today that only current free agents that would commit for the entire season in China can play… The Class of 2015 (my son included) had their big Fall welcome at Wells Fargo Arena this past week. Here’s a quick video of their Sun Devil spirit. Opening game is September 1st against UC Davis… After a rough start to their season, the Mercury took over sole possession of second place, just 4 games behind Minnesota with 10 games to play… A 2.5 game lead in late August means the D’Backs are going to make September (and hopefully October) fun for local baseball fans… A Raillife welcome to the new Men’s Golf Head Coach Tim Mickelson. Yep, little brother of ASU’s own Phil is now at the helm… I’ll be out of town, but you don’t want to miss the Black-Out against Missouri on Friday, September 9th at 7:30pm. Those black uni’s are way cool…
