    So much bellyaching in sports today, so many athletes talking about the adversity they overcome, and <strong>Octavio Sanchez</strong> loses his right hand, two fingers on his left, his nose burns off and he says, "I've been blessed."

  2. You people in San Diego need to deal better with the Chargers

    Obviously, the good people in Los Angeles are very different from you people in San Diego.
    Obviously, the good people in Los Angeles are very different from you people in San Diego. Or, as Bill Johnston, the director of public relations for the Chargers, put it in a recent blog to folks in San Diego: "What's with you people?'' The Chargers...

  3. Hooray! USC won! Now is that so hard to say?

    I just don't get some sportswriters. What do they want? I pick up Sunday morning's newspaper expecting to read about our guys' hard-fought victory, only to find a disappointing tale about what the winners didn't accomplish. Where's the gushing? Where's...

  4. Nothing 'masterful' about UCLA's victory over Utah

    I had such expectations, the cast sounding terrific, the early Oscar buzz.
    I had such expectations, the cast sounding terrific, the early Oscar buzz. Then I went and paid to see the worst movie ever made — dumbfounding how anyone ever agreed to make it — an idiotic, stupefying, colossal waste of time. I sat there...

  5. Jack Disney has lived, breathed and written of SoCal's sports icons

    An athlete plays 15 or 20 years, retires and there is great fanfare upon his departure. Maybe tears, maybe gifts given, maybe his number hung in honor.
    An athlete plays 15 or 20 years, retires and there is great fanfare upon his departure. Maybe tears, maybe gifts given, maybe his number hung in honor. Los Angeles' very own Jack Disney calls it a day and he's just gone. Disney is good people. There...

  6. USC's Lane Kiffin is doing fine, paranoia and all

    My favorite TV show is "The Mentalist."
    My favorite TV show is "The Mentalist." I think Patrick Jane is just the greatest, so flippant and smart and capable of saying the most outrageous things at any moment. "Remind you of anyone?" I'm asking Lane Kiffin on Tuesday morning while mentioning...

  7. Here's something nice: UCLA Coach Jim Mora is a lovable loser

    It's a difficult admission, one that would trouble my poor mother if she were still alive.
    It's a difficult admission, one that would trouble my poor mother if she were still alive. But on occasion, I can be critical here. I remember my mom once telling me, "If you can't find anything nice to write about someone, then go do a boxing, tennis...

  8. Dodgers' Andre Ethier tries to make talk about lefties right

    There's no quit here, although I can only imagine how many folks wish I was on the verge of elimination.
    There's no quit here, although I can only imagine how many folks wish I was on the verge of elimination. Before Monday's all-important Dodger game, I go to the clubhouse to remind Andre Ethier how important he is to the team. It's a discussion that will...

  9. At UCLA, some dignity is lost in drive to succeed at football

    BOULDER, Colo. -- Proving it was no fluke when Sacramento State, Colorado State and Fresno State somehow found a way to beat Colorado, UCLA did the same Saturday.
    BOULDER, Colo. -- Proving it was no fluke when Sacramento State, Colorado State and Fresno State somehow found a way to beat Colorado, UCLA did the same Saturday. The gutty little Bruins, while not winning by 55 like mighty Fresno State, did a...

  10. Dodgers' fortunes took biggest hit when Matt Kemp hit the wall

    SAN DIEGO &mdash; I drove down here alone so that I'll have plenty of room upon my return to bring back any Chargers wanting an early start finding a place to live in Los Angeles.
    SAN DIEGO — I drove down here alone so that I'll have plenty of room upon my return to bring back any Chargers wanting an early start finding a place to live in Los Angeles. While here I thought I might as well ride the Choking Dogs for going belly...

  11. Nice guy Don Mattingly is still looking for answers

    SAN DIEGO &mdash; The other night after the Dodgers lost to the Padres, while the media met with Manager Don Mattingly, screaming could be heard from the nearby coaches' dressing room.
    SAN DIEGO — The other night after the Dodgers lost to the Padres, while the media met with Manager Don Mattingly, screaming could be heard from the nearby coaches' dressing room. "Passionate" screaming? General Manager Ned Colletti says with a...

  12. Bruins take the buzz out of their season

    So I buy into this <strong>Jim Mora</strong>-walks-on-water hoopla.
    So I buy into this Jim Mora-walks-on-water hoopla. "Discipline," as one UCLA honk after the next says as I arrive at the Rose Bowl, making the difference. I've only seen the Bruins play Rice, and I thought I was watching two high school teams. But I'...
