Professional athletes cannot bet on their own sport, including games in their league, to prevent insider trading. This rule is strictly enforced across major leagues.

Assistant coroner Valerie Charbit insisted that training to recognize sudden cardiac arrest should be compulsory for all members, including grassroots coaches and referees, stating, 'The responsibility for first aid lies with all ages within society.'

The indictment alleges a group of 'fixers' agreed to recruit NCAA players who would help ensure their teams failed to cover the point spread of the first half of a game or an entire game.

During an in-game interview on CBS, Michigan State coach Tom Izzo said Fears is under a microscope because of what was said following the previous game. 'I told him I don't even want him breathing wrong,' Izzo said.

In basketball, rudeness is a two-pronged trait: It's being good enough to make a hard game look easy, but more than that, it's being good enough to make your opponent's hard work seem like a waste. It's strutting into a department store, knocking over a stack of neatly folded sweaters, and heading home. What you feel when you watch a defender stay in front of Booker, only for her to rise up and nail a midrange jumper over their head, is overwhelming pity.

Come on! Come on! Are you kidding me? Are you kidding me? He didn't even get hit in the face! Take a look at this, folks. I gotta show it to you. Take a look at this.

I'm gonna honor Christ like I always do. Blessed to do this, but this was embarrassing. These dudes do not deserve to wear this uniform. There will be very few of them in it next year. Like, I'm embarrassed for the university. I'm embarrassed, for our fans, our student section, you know. It is just ridiculous. We got practice at 6 a.m. tomorrow morning, and we will get this thing right. I have no answer, no words Y'all got two questions.

Dallas coach Jason Kidd ripped the referees for not calling a foul on Flagg's drive to the basket late in the game. "I saw a foul," Kidd said. "[Officials] Sean [Wright], Simone [Jelks] and Jason [Goldenberg] were awful tonight. The referees were unacceptable. It's a foul, and he needs to be at the free throw line. Now, does he make both? That's up to the player, but the referees did not do their job. They were terrible."

Alas, Gottlieb put his ass hat back on and returned to the spotlight following his team's 75-72 home loss. Gottlieb, whose team blew a six-point second-half lead, spent the postgame press conference profanely whining about officiating, conference leadership, and even schedulers. The peeved coach climaxed his tirade by attacking the table on the dais with the same venom he'd shown the chair in December. Why do you hate furniture, Doug?

It's an unnecessary move and a necessary reaction. There is no such a thing -- I think there's not supposed to be those things on a basketball floor. So it was just an unnecessary move and a necessary reaction by me.

The league lawyer that was doing the interview kind of unilaterally decided Aaron Nesmith, who had been injured the night before and couldn't hold the ball, should have played in the game, which just seems ridiculous. And during the interview process -- I was not in on it but I heard the details -- we asked them if they wanted to talk to the doctors, our doctors about it because it was something documented by our doctors and trainers. They said no, they didn't need to.
