Dennis Montoya, who represents Gerald, added that the 90-day clock requiring Gerald to file his lawsuit within the outlined parameters has already started and that, while Gerald has until Sept.
Jumbled in the labyrinth of litigation, among the supposed exposés, and building and falling evidence of admissions and retractions, is the proverbial, high-stakes, good-guys-bad-guys game, one that will be viewed through discriminatory lenses depending on what side of the chicken wire you’re on.
Becoming a star in the NBA: relentless. Being selected to tryout for the U.S. Men’s National Basketball team: joyous.
by Ryan Tomari Daily Lobo As a member of the UNM community, I have tried to stay optimistic about the upcoming 2010 UNM football season. After picking up NCAA Football 2011 at midnight at my local Walmart, consider my enthusiasm curbed. All things considered, in the end, the final score was Oregon 72, UNM 3.

There’s no defending the conspired commercial ploy, a down-and-dirty business deal crafted among promoters, boxers and television enablers. Gone are the golden days when boxing, much like art, was viewed for its aesthetic value, for its controlled violence and the bonding emotional effect it had on its viewers.
In his own way, Carmen Messina played like a ferocious wolf on the football field in 2009, or maybe a bucking bronco. Messina, a middle linebacker on the UNM football team, is the preseason favorite for the “Bronco” Nagurski Award, which is awarded to the nation’s best college defensive player by the Football Writers Association of America and the Charlotte Touchdown Club.
With the whole world watching, Albuquerque gladly joined in, too. New Mexicans were emotionally invested in the world’s most popular sport.

It wasn’t exactly Death Valley, but the UNM men’s basketball team jaunted through the dunes of doom on June 26. Led by strength and conditioning coach Mark Paulsen, the Lobos spent Saturday scaling the hills near the Hard Rock Hotel Albuquerque and taking part in a voluntary workout.
Many detractors refuse to reconcile simple truths and are instead content concocting fantastical reasons for relatively explainable phenomenon.
It was a split-second decision that might have cost Darington Hobson first-round money. On Thursday night, Hobson was selected by the Milwaukee Bucks in the second round (37th overall) of thhe NBA Draft. Back in April, Hobson made the decision to put his name into the NBA Draft lot.
The monotone cadence present in Darington Hobson’s voice either belies his truest emotions or suggests he’s not the least bit worried about his draft stock, though he won’t cop to being so self-assured. “I don’t get caught up in who wants me the most,” Hobson said, sleepily, in a telephone interview the evening before the NBA Draft.
Gather ’round the camp fire, high school young’ns. The UNM men’s basketball team hosted a high school camp for teams from New Mexico and Western Texas and one team from Wasilla, Alaska. The four-day team camp took place June 17-20 and was intended to develop up-and-coming high school basketball stars. Wasilla, Alaska dominated pool play, where it won all four games against top New Mexico teams like La Cueva and Roswell Goddard.
