FairWarning
LV will get the same "outstanding" support the Coyotes get.

Put it in Hamilton, QC, Seattle, Portland....anywhere but LV.

There are probably enough Canadians in LV at any given time to fill at least 1/2 the seats in an NHL arena; I would go to Vegas just to see an NHL game or two. They must have taken this into consideration, no?

Tron is a big baseball fan, but I bet he didn't go to Vegas to see it. If Az moved to LV, that would make a little more sense. Why wait 20 years for it to catch on when it will in ready-made markets now.
 
Kerr: 'Really fitting' that Iguodala won MVP award
JUN 17 2015 12:52AM ETSteve Kerr explains why he thinks Andre Iguodala deserved the MVP award. SHARE 2.7K TWEET 21


TUCSON, Ariz. -- Just moments after Steve Kerr coached the Golden State Warriors past the Cleveland Cavaliers to win his sixth NBA title -- first as a coach -- he thanked his former college coach Lute Olson, then coaches Phil Jackson and Gregg Popovich, among others.
"I felt very honored to be mentioned with Pop and Phil," Olson said in a text to FoxSportsArizona.com early Wednesday morning.
Olson was the coach who brought the lightly recruited Kerr to Arizona in the early 1980s, only to see him become one of the all-time Arizona favorites and one of the more successful NBA players in the long line of former Wildcats in the NBA.
Tuesday night, at least four former UA players had ties to the title, with Luke Walton and Bruce Fraser on the bench with Kerr. Fraser worked in player development. The other was Andre Iguodala, who was named the NBA Finals' most valuable player.
Iguodala, who became the first player to be named MVP while not starting every game, averaged 16.3 points, four assists and 5.8 rebounds in the Finals. On Tuesday, he scored 25 points , had five rebounds and five assists.
"Andre did a super job of defending Lebron (James)," Olson said. "He was also outstanding on offense and on the boards. He was very deserving of the MVP."

Herschel Walker still making random noises about a comeback to the NFL.

This seems to come up every couple years since he retired. He's now 53.


My favorite clip from the story:


Walker had told a CBS Radio show that before he could return to football, he needed to get out of the fighting first, referring to his mixed martial arts career. Which kind of sounds like a convenient excuse, especially considering that his MMA career has consisted of two fights, in 2010 and 2011.




He wants someone to love him.
