Anytime there’s a two-time defending champion, they will have a target on their backs. Even though Duke enters the NCAA tournament coming off a bit of a down-year for the Blue Devils, Duke should still garner the attention they deserve. Ohio State is no slouch. But here’s the difference: Duke has championship pedigree and there’s something to be said for that experience. Even though many of those players have since…

Outlaws Face Confident Hounds in Home Opener

  No disrespect to team President Jim McPhilliamy, but I think we all can agree that in a perfect world the ideal owner for the Charlotte Hounds would be Montgomery Burns if not just for the fact that he could say “release the hounds” before every game.
