Day 2: The Dwight in the room
Location: Orlando
Hard to imagine that one player could dominate an event that celebrates 30 of the best players in the world, but Dwight has done it. It seems funny to see all the posters and billboards of the Magic big man knowing that in two weeks he may b
Day 1, 6:15am - The Start
Location: DFW Airport
The journey begins! Flight to ATL to handle some quick business then off to Orlando. It seems like this really started a week ago in San Antonio holding my ground while broadcasting live in front of true Spurs fans. Let's just say they reminded me constantly that the Mavs only have 1 title. Wednesday, I watched the Lakers beat the Mavs back home. My only joy in a late start to please west coast fans is interviewing Kobe Bryant. As always, it was well worth it....more on that later.
Mavericks try to quiet trade rumors
With the March 15th deadline rapidly approaching, smoke usually means fire with trade rumors. None bigger than the biggest trade available with Dwight Howard and Deron Williams.
The buzz at the AAC last night centered around the missing Roddy Beaubois and Lamar Odom. Both were officially listed out for family reasons. The Mavericks have been actively shopping Roddy to see what the potential of a quick guard can get on the open market. Anyone bringing Roddy to their team would be looking primarily at potential only, since head coach Rick Carlisle barely gives him minutes. Rumors began to circulate through the halls of the sold out arena.

Anyone bringing Roddy to their team would be looking primarily at potential only, since head coach Rick Carlisle barely gives him minutes. Rumors began to circulate through the halls of the sold out arena.Questions regarding our information were repeatedly denied by Mavericks personnel, but what else is expected. All teams are playing it close to the vest during All-star weekend which ironically takes place in the house that Dwight built in Orlando.
The more shocking development was a tweet from reality TV star, and wife of Lamar Odom, Khloe Kardashian that she was battling a stomach ailment. Could that be reason enough to miss the last game before a long break against your former team that traded you for essentially nothing? If so, a trade may be a welcomed reality.
Sources: Roddy B and Lamar Odom trade in the works
Sources have told us that a Maverick trade is in the works that includes PG Roddy Beaubois and recently aquired point-forward Lamar Odom. The Mavericks have not confirmed such a trade is taking place.
Speculation regarding a trade has been fueled by rumors of the Mavs shopping Roddy and the absence of Lamar Odom for tonight's game against his former team the Lakers

Should the Mavs take a chance on Kenyon Martin?
Kenyon Martin has been cleared by the FIBA to play in the NBA. During his stint overseas he averaged 14 points per game. Sources say the Lakers, Spurs, Clippers, Heat, and Knicks are all in pursuit of Martin's services.Could the Mavs use him?
Rick Carlisle has done an impressive job of pulling together ab ecclectic mix of NBA wanderers like Yi Jianglin, Delonte West, and Vince Carter. Even the addition of Lamar Odom has not been an easy fit, but seems to be working now.
What is missing from the former champions is an enforcer in the paint. Both Ian Mahnmi and Brendan Haywood have done an excellent job replacing Tyson Chandler's points and rebounds, but have yet to conjure up his toughness. This is Kenyon Martin's game.
Throw in the fact that he is from Dallas and he regularly visited the AAC to watch the Mavs play and this may be the best fit.

Peyton upstaging Brady-Eli Super Bowl rematch - Michael Silver, Yahoo! Sports
INDIANAPOLIS – Welcome to the home of Super Bowl XLVI, site of the epic rematch between Tom Bradyand Eli Manning – brought to you by a third quarterback who hasn’t even taken a snap this season.
Yes, sports fans, Peyton Manning is about to hijack the buildup to the Ultimate Game, thanks to the impending divorce between the icon and the franchise that happens to be hosting the spectacle.
Don’t even try to fight it: Even if Manning and Indianapolis Colts owner Jim Irsay stop sniping at one other publicly for the next seven days, there’s too much conspicuous chest-puffing, too much intrigue and too many media folk in need of stories...

Chuck Pagano hired as Colts new coach; Leaves Ravens
51-year-old defensive coordinator Chuck Pagano becomes the new head coach for the Indianapolis Colts. Pagano was the defensive coordinator for the Baltimore Ravens for only 1 year.He becomes the 4th Ravens defensive coordinator to get a head coaching gig after Rex Ryan, Marvin Lewis, and Mike Nolan.
No doubt the Colts job is a huge step up for the longtime NFL assistant, but the management team is on the verge of the biggest personnel decision in history. Owner Jim Irsay has been full of surprises during the off season and hiring a defensive coach now adds to the speculation that Peyton's days are numbered.
Coach Pagano may define his head coaching legacy by March 8th.

Colts fire Jim Caldwell; Is Peyton next to go?
After going 26-22 in two seasons, new GM Ryan Grigson has decided to let Jim Caldwell go after leading the Peyton-less Colts to a 2-14 season. Owner Jim Irsay has been busy remaking the Colts. Since the end of the season, he has parted ways with the Polians' whom are friends with Manning and Caldwell who was Manning's QB coach for his 4 MVP years.
Irsay and Grigson understand that the talent pool for coaches is rich, but timing will be critical. The Rams were able to sign Jeff Fisher away from the Dolphins after Miami decided to keep Jeff Ireland as GM. Fisher wanted full control.
Tony Dungy in all likelihood would not be an option since he is friends with Bill Polian, Jim Caldwell, and Peyton Manning. Hard to see him replacing friends.
The firing of Caldwell makes the vacancy the most attractive coaching option available. The new coach will have his choice of Peyton Manning and a #1 pick in the upcoming draft. Its a win-win situation. Irsay understands that, so expect a quick decision.

Robert Griffin III declares for the NFL draft; Should he be the #1 pick? Yes
The Colts have sole possession of the #1 pick in the upcoming draft. They face a big dilemma at the QB position as well all know.Most experts seem to contend that Andrew Luck is the #1 pick. Reports started to surface last week that the Colts have already made the decision to draft Luck. Many point to the firing of Bill Polian, longtime architect of the Manning teams, and hiring of ex-Eagles Director of Personnel Ryan Grigson to clear the path to end the Peyton era.
Must I remind NFL fans that draft rumors are a bigger smoke screen than any magic trick in Vegas. Teams use the media to sway teams into panic trades to move up the draft board.
No matter who gets the pick, why is Andrew Luck a lock for #1? Sure he is great passer with excellent mechanics and a pro arm, but Griffin is the better pure athlete. After all, Griffin was awarded the best player in college football this season with the Heisman trophy. That means the best of any position.
Of all the QBs taken in the last two draft classes, only one is in the playoffs; Tim Tebow. Tebow was not the lock #1 pick either. Sam Bradford coming off an injury was selected by the St. Louis Rams #1 in 2010.
Tebow, like Griffin, won a Heisman award. Tebow like Griffin was a dual-threat QB. One could argue that last year's #1 pick Cam Newton belongs in the same class. Defenses in the new NFL are faster and blitz more now than ever. The QB position has become a hybrid position for pure athletes like Robert Griffin III. Luck took the opportunity during his bowl game to show off his running ability. He knows that QBs are having success earlier if they become dual threats.
GMs with a shot at either QB need to realize that you can't surround a pocket passer with enough talent through the draft in one year to make him a success. Use Sam Bradford as an example. Pocket passers need great offensive lines and talent at the skill positions. Most teams drafting in the top 10 don't have that. Unless they would not be in the top 10.

Poll Question: Should Andy Reid and Norv Turner both be fired?
Of all the turnover this week in the NFL coaching ranks two individuals who always seem to be on the hot seat have been able to keep their jobs. 
If you look at all the talent Andy Reid and Norv Turner have had over their coaching terms with their teams, how can you keep these guys around? Look at the talent that both have wasted...Andy Reid: Donovan McNabb, Terrell Owens, Hugh Douglass, Jeremiah Trotter, Brian Dawkins, Desean Jackson, Mike Vick, Shady McCoy, Duce Staley, and more that escape my mind right now.
Norv Turner's list may be worse: L. T., Philip Rivers, Drew Brees, Junior Seau, Antonio Gates, Vincent Jackson, Quentin Jammer, Darren Sproles, and more I can't seem to think of. Throw in the fact that Marty Schottenhemier was fired after going 14-2 and he had the #1 ranked offense/defense and did not make the playoffs!!!
