"Percy Harvin Week" Continues with Rookie of the Year Award
It has officially become "Percy Harvin Week" here at the Daily Norseman. It's his world and we're all just living in it. Our quick-draw Fan Posters informed us hours ago, but I just wanted to bring it to the front page. After being named as a late entry to the Pro Bowl Monday night, Harvin has...
Rookie of the Year and the Mythical Sophomore Slump
Time to bust out your Kirt Manwaring Rated Rookie cards, kids. It's that time of year! Rookie of the Year is a bit of a strange award. It's given, I presume, to the rookie-eligible player who had the most valuable season in each league. It has good historical pedigree, as Jackie Robinson won the...

End of Season Evaluation: Russell Westbrook
Since we have a little time to kill before the 2009 NBA Draft Lottery selection, I figured we could use that time to take a look back at each player and evaluate them for the 2008-09 Season. Of course we'll still keep you updated on any other team news that pops up between here and there, but...
