I can't get the thought out of my head. Gilbert Arenas tearing it up against the Blue Devils as a helpless Mike Krzyzewski pleads/whines to officials for more fouls to be called. While this dream has zippy chance of being fulfilled, Arenas' selection as a starter for the Eastern Conference All-Star team last week solidified what is becoming quite the special season for the budding superstar and my Washington Wizards. Ever since this past summer, when Arenas was left off the Team USA roster, the 6-foot-4, 210-pound point guard has been on a tear and has directed much of his motivation towards the coaches of the U.S.
The Virginia women's basketball team entered this week with aspirations of cementing their place in the ACC. Unfortunately, after four straight losses, that place may be in the cellar. The Seminoles added to the Cavalier misery Sunday afternoon as Florida State handed Virginia a demoralizing 63-47 loss to move the Cavaliers to 12-9, 2-5 in the ACC. The game followed a familiar script: For the third straight game, Virginia led at the half -- this time despite an awful shooting performance during the first 20 minutes.
Virginia beat Virginia Tech yesterday afternoon in Richmond 25-9. The match was a part of the "Rumble on the River" tournament.
CLEMSON, S.C. -- Down by 14 points with five minutes remaining in Sunday afternoon's game at Clemson, the situation looked dire for Virginia.
Jackie Apple is out of her element. Sitting poolside at the AFC, the 5-foot, 4-inch sophomore looks slightly uncomfortable being so ... upright.
This weekend the Cavaliers continued their great start to the season, taking down No. 13 Notre Dame 6-1 Friday and then capping the weekend by upsetting No.
The Virginia women's basketball team will escape the cold weather this weekend in Charlottesville as they travel south to take on a red hot Florida State Seminole team Sunday afternoon. The Cavaliers have now played 19 games this year but still lack that signature win to impress the NCAA committee. Their victory against No.
Following last weekend's intense Atlantic Coast Conference match-ups, the Virginia men's and women's swimming and diveing team will face the Big East's Pittsburgh Panthers Sunday afternoon. For the past 20 to 30 years, the Panthers have been the number one or two team in the Big East, and historically, Pittsburgh has been ranked among the top 25 nationally.
The last time the Virginia men's basketball team played consecutive road games, the Cavaliers went 0-2 against ACC opponents North Carolina and Boston College.
The Virginia wrestling team is ready to kick off their ACC portion of the schedule when it faces North Carolina in Chapel Hill tonight and Virginia Tech Sunday in Richmond.
After shutting out William and Mary 7-0 Wednesday, the Virginia men's tennis team will get a much tougher challenge this weekend when they face off against two ranked opponents. Notre Dame will get the first shot at the Cavaliers tonight, coming to Charlottesville ranked 13th and hoping to upset the No.
When I started writing this column, I had every intention of bashing the National Hockey League. The league has been coordinating with Reebok to create new uniforms for its teams.

I had to laugh Sunday night and during the preceding week when all the Patriot-haters came out of the woodwork to root vehemently against a team many had seen just a few times during the entire year.
