Huh. Had no idea HBO had pulled the plug. The show had been on for 31 years, and was drawing about two million viewers a week. Seems pretty healthy for the network. Guess not.

In January 2003, a group of sports-loving friends launched The Sports Frog. In the time since, we have become an oasis for intelligent sports discussion on the Web. That's right, we said oasis. If you are here for the first time be sure to swing by The Swamp and join the conversation.
