Corey Costelloe's Blog: May 2009

http://espnbakersfield.blogspot.com/2009_05_01_archive.html

Wednesday, May 20, 2009. Out under the cover of darkness. As expected, and as predicted by yours truly, Michael Vick was not only released from prison this morning but done so before 5am, under the cover of darkness. Vick was "slipped" out of Leavenworth in the wee hours of the morning no doubt to avoid a media circus that would normally await a highly anticipated celebrity de-carceration. As the monster tries to "rebuild" his life, many on the outside, in the daylight want answers, and more importantly,...

Corey Costelloe's Blog: Another Name, Another Gift, Another Curse

http://espnbakersfield.blogspot.com/2009/07/another-name-another-gift-another-curse.html

Thursday, July 30, 2009. Another Name, Another Gift, Another Curse. The New York Times first reported, then the rest of the sports world went crazy as we learned, to no real surprise that Manny Ramirez and David Ortiz, both then teammates, tested positive for steroids in 2003. Another pair of names linked to the "list" once believed to be anonymous until the Feds got involved. Onto David Ortiz, who's surprised here? As much as this harms Ortiz, it takes away from the magical Red Sox run of 2003, their fi...

Sunday, December 28, 2008. ESPN 1230 Local Sports Year In Review. So I've already taken a little time to talk about some of my personal show higlights from 2008 but I figured I'd go back a little and focus on the events here in Kern County that made the year and how they related to our station and 'Home Turf' specifically. From a high school football standpoint it was a down year for Bakersfield teams with four of the six Valley Titles going to the Fresno area, but Bakersfield Christian and Tehachapi ove...

Corey Costelloe's Blog: Western Conference Finals Preview and Prediction..

http://espnbakersfield.blogspot.com/2009/05/western-conference-finals-preview-and.html

Monday, May 18, 2009. Western Conference Finals Preview and Prediction. As I look at this series I am intrigued by the match ups. Just how is Derek Fisher going to guard Chauncey Billups when he struggled against Aaron Brooks of the Rockets? Playoffs aren't all about talent, and that's what I keep hearing about LA. "They're still the most talented team in the league," yeah but talent doesn't get you too far in the post season when you're inconsistent, it's only a seven-game series. Denver has bee...

Corey Costelloe's Blog: Jam Version 2.0

http://espnbakersfield.blogspot.com/2009/06/jam-version-20.html

Friday, June 19, 2009. Jam Version 2.0. Bakersfield was introduced Friday to the newest version of our NBA D-League team the Bakersfield Jam. Yes the same Jam who less than two months ago said they were closing up shop, came out today and said 'not so fast' we're going to try this again. As team owner Stan Ellis put it "there are 1500 basketball fans in Bakersfield, there are not 9,000.". It takes a lot of business sense and humility to admit your mistakes and take a step back in order to move forward, b...

http://espnbakersfield.blogspot.com/2009_03_01_archive.html

Wednesday, March 25, 2009. First two rounds in the books. Happy with the outcomes? As I said on the show, we might not have a true Cinderella (although Arizona in my book counts) but we had some really competitive games top to bottom in the first few rounds. Love the tourney, love the way it's evolving into a showcase for smaller programs to get a little national love. While major TV networks will still on focus on the Big East, Big 10, ACC and PAC 10, it's nice to see some fresh faces come March. I love...

Thursday, November 27, 2008. Giving Thanks on The Turf. Now that I've overstuffed myself once again on another fabulous Thanksgiving, I wanted to take time to post the obligatory 'Home Turf' Thankful list. I have a lot to be thankful for this year, and I'm sure you have your list as well. As hard as times are right now when you look at the big picture, we're all doing pretty well. Posted by Corey Costelloe at 9:01 PM. Tuesday, November 25, 2008. Runners even record with Sac State win. That aside, the big...
