So yesterday I read a USA Today blog ripping Demarcus Cousins for coming out with an R and B CD. I can't find the blog but here's another article with pictures of the CD. NBA.com blog link
However, turns out that was an early April Fools joke. What the heck is an early April Fools joke by the way!? That's cheating!
Then today I turned to my favorite UCLA blog and they have a headline that Crean was fired and Alford going to take over. A dream for many of us in Westwood but just reading the headline I knew it was too good to be true. UCLA Blog Link
Reminds me of early 80's in LA. Local sports guy (I think it was Keith Olberman) did a live story from the UCLA campus about John Wooden coming out of retirement to take over the coaching duties again. Of course it was April Fools day.
You fallen victim to any good sports April Fool's stories today or in other years?
