I knew that people would fall in love with Cam Newton after they got to see him work out. I knew that his draft stock was going to do nothing but go up as we march toward the NFL Draft. There's no doubt that Newton is a great athlete.

Max Talbot is overrated
Can one game in professional sports make your whole entire career a success?
If Pittsburgh Penguins' forward Maxime Talbot is any indication, it sure seems that way.
The fan-favorite will live in Penguins infamy forever thanks to the fact that he scored two goals in Game Seven of the 2008-2009 Stanley Cup Finals.

Ben Roethlisberger is a Great Quarterback: Why the Haters are Wrong
So Ben Roethlisberger didn't play well in Super Bowl XLV. He threw two interceptions in the Super Bowl and the Pittsburgh Steelers lost to the Green Bay Packers. Here come the haters. Ben now has three touchdown passes and five interceptions in three career Super Bowl games. Not very impressive. That being said, Ben is still one of the best quarterbacks in the league and of his generation.
Pitt loses to Louisville
by Emily Mallon
Pitt lost another tough one in the end falling to Loiusville 62-59 yesterday. Losing in overtime always stings, but the Panthers must re-group and get ready for South Florida on Wednesday. Pitt is in jeopardy of losing their #1 seed. Joe Lunardi still has Pitt as a #1 in his most recent Bracketology but the Panthers are now number #5 in the ESPN poll and tied with Duke for #4 in the AP poll. Duke will get the nod if it's between Pitt and Duke for a #1.
It may not be fair, but Pitt fans need to prepare themselves for a #2 seed.
For the Panthers to get a #1 seed now, they MUST beat USF, Villanova, and make it to the Championship game of the Big East Tournament. It's possible for them the get there without this plan, but other teams would have to lose and Pitt cannot rely on that.
Although they played better in the 2nd half, the Panthers looked sloppy throughout the entire game. Nasir Robinson had a rough game only scoring 3 points. Gilbert Brown led Pitt with 20 points but missed a crucial layup at the end of the game.
The only bright spot on Sunday was a male cheerleader for Louisville thinking the game was over and celebrating by throwing the ball in the air resulting in a technical. After losing to St. John's and Louisville in close games it's hard to feel happy, but this video should give you a laugh:

Pitt vs Lousiville: Full Preview
written by Emily Mallon
Pitt will travel to the KFC Yum! Center tomorrow afternoon to face 21-7 Louisville. (KFC Yum! Center is in fact the name of their arena). As with most Rick Pitino coached teams, Louisville is playing well at the end of the regular season. They're 10-5 in the Big East and working to get a first round bye in the Big East Tournament. Pitt has already cemented their first round bye.
