On The Marks

  Derrick Marks may be the best Boise State basketball player we have heard the least about. After his electrifying 38 point performance versus Colorado State, I think most fans want to know more. With his chest thumping on the court and swagger, I wouldn’t think he was shy. He almost went to Albany University…MORE

Flying Pigs

  The NFL combine results of two offensive linemen blew me away last Saturday. Two offensive tackles ran 4.71 and 4.72 in the 40 yard dash. TWO. And, they were both 300lb? Tim Tebow, LaGarrette Blount, Shiloh Keo, and Colt McCoy all ran 4.7 in the combine dash. Arkansas Pine Bluff OT Terron Armstead and…MORE

I’d Like To Thank The Academy

  There is a classic Saturday Night Live skit where Bill Murray picks the 1978 Oscar winner for best picture. He settles on "The Goodbye Girl" because it was the only nominated movie he had seen. I love to watch the Academy Awards, but only once have I seen all the movies nominated for Best…MORE

Juiced Up

  I started my juice cleanse after a recommendation from son Tyson who works at Tree City of Boise and Meridian. I was going to do it with him and my wife but they got advised that winter is not the time for them to do it because their body would fight being cold. So…MORE

Most high schools have courts as well. 70% of all tennis is played on public courts. That's a big investment in cement, nets…MORE

Tarantino Unchained

  A few things are certain in any Quentin Tarantino movie. There will be violence. At least one memorable scene will stick with you. There are plenty of odd characters. And, you probably haven't seen anything like it before. Tarantino's latest movie had them all. With great anticipation I recently saw "Django Unchained." I knew…MORE

LOI Parties have KTIK Roots

  The idea to start a National Letter of Intent Day college football signing celebration program in Boise came from a few different sources. Soon after KTIK launched the ALL SPORTS format 7/'94 ( great timing with BSU going to 1-AA Finals ), we added a web site and message board. I decided to let fans run…MORE

Don’t Bet Against Tiger

  Although the PGA season has been going for a couple of weeks, for most people it started with the Farmers Insurance Open because of Tiger Woods. He played his first tournament in the United States after missing the cut in Abu Dhabi while still collecting a reported $3 million appearance fee. That's not a…MORE
