Worst Sports Owners

If you're still looking for a pound of flesh from a former owner of the Sonics, you might want to visit Athlon Sports for their Worst Sports Owner Tournament.

No, it's not Clay Bennett, it's Howard "Five-Year Plan" Schultz. Schultz, unfortunately, is in a tough bracket as he's matched up with James Dolan in a four vs. five seed contest. Whomever emerges will take on the winner of the Donald Sterling/Maloofs matchup.

Hey, when you're miserable excuse for an owner, you can't expect easy matchups, right?

Kemp Chats at Times Today (Now with Bonus Updates!)



Fresh off his appearance at Safeco Field last weekend, Shawn Kemp is once again in the spotlight, this time taking questions via a Seattle Times chat. You can submit your questions here. You know the censors are going to be working fast and furious to keep the snarkier questions at bay.

UPDATE:

-Kemp's pick as the guest he'd most like to have walk through the doors at Oskar's Kitchen (Shawn's Seattle restaurant) ... Drew Carey (?!). Would not have guessed that in 137 years.

-Kemp's pick as his favorite player to watch in today's NBA ... Kevin Love.

Um, is it me, or does it seem like Steve Scheffler was sitting in for parts of the talk today?
