Pac-12 Valentines Day: North Division

Happy Valentines Day. Many of you over the past few days professed your love for your team to the Pac-12 blog. We did the Pac-12 South Division earlier. Here are Valentines for the North Division. California Tylurker from Land of Oaks, Calif., writes: Why love the ursines? Because misery loves company. A couple of things: Memorial Stadium. Strawberry Canyon. Tightwad Hill. Card stunts (who still does card stunts?). Roll on you bears. Oski. Those are all grand but mostly, it's the misery.

Hawks' best players need to be better, and they know it

Hossa, Kane, Toews have combined for just 3 goals, 6 points during 8-game skid

Happy Valentine's Day, ACC

You wouldn’t believe this, but Hallmark was all out of Valentine’s Day cards for ACC coaches. So, I took it upon myself to lighten the mood here in the blogosphere with a little bit o’ love and these personal touch cards. Dear … FRANK BEAMER: The loss to Michigan wasn’t so bad, it’s the 1-5 BCS bowl record that has your fans sad. The 2012 recruiting class should help ease the pain, just try not to lose to Clemson again.
