Arizona Sports 620’s Doug and Wolf broadcasted live from the Arizona State campus Friday and gave tickets to Saturday’s Pac-12 Championship Game to the fan who brought the best sign. Donuts were also given away to the number of students who have spent this week lined up outside Sun Devil Stadium for seats so Saturday’s […]
Stanford didn’t do it. Arizona State did. Utah is a bad team on the road. But when they are in Salt Lake City, they are very tough. Just ask David Shaw and The Cardinal. The Utes had the second longest streak in the nation for holding halftime leads heading into Saturday’s contest against the Sun […]
Everything is in front of them and there’s no reason to look to the past anymore. Devil fans love to talk about past failures. Phoenix loves to wait until a team proves some mythical point before they decide they’ll hitch their wagon to the fast moving truck. What still needs to be proven? Listen, ASU […]
The best team won the Shamrock Series. Notre Dame didn’t win because it’s used to the moment and ASU isn’t. Arizona State did not choke. The Sun Devils didn’t collapse under the weight of the building or being the featured game on NBC. Arizona State lost because Notre Dame is better. This is not a […]
Comebacks show character. They do not show if you’re a good team or not. The only term that can be used is butt whooping. Arizona State is not close to the level Stanford is currently at. Was there some bad officiating? Yes. Were there some bad coaching decisions? Yes. Does either of those two things […]
1. SEATTLE SEAHAWKS (7): Averaging 330 yards of offense per game but the NFL has changed so much that they rank only 23rd…playing all four of their AFC South opponents in their next four games. 2. SAN FRANCISCO 49ERS (1): Little surprised by the low (3.5) yards per carry…most important hamstring in the division, Vernon […]
Chicago White Sox bench coach Mark Parent was ejected from the game before it even started Sunday against the Texas Rangers. Parent was out exchanging lineup cards when the crew chief tossed him. There was clearly some arguing going on about something. White Sox manager Robin Ventura mentioned it may have stemmed from a questionable […]
Paul Goldschmidt is exactly what baseball needs. The only Diamondback to hit three grand slams in one season. What’s sad is from 1966-2009, we could never have had Paul Goldschmidt. Paul Goldschmidt is a product of genetics, outstanding parental up-bringing, and hard work. I also believe a strong aspect of his success is due to […]
There was a time when Phoenix Suns shooting guard Shannon Brown was one of the most electrifying dunkers in the NBA. Unfortunately for the 27-year-old, that time seems to have come and gone. While competing at a recent contest in Latvia, Brown attempted to dunk from the free-throw line over three people lying flat in […]
TREVOR CAHILL: He’s given up more earned runs in two June starts than he did in all of April or May. CODY ROSS: Made the third out at third base Saturday night while trailing 8-0. It is unimaginable to be standing on first base with two outs and think it’s a good idea to aggressively […]
The musings of Doug Franz, the co-host of Doug and Wolf on Arizona Sports 620. 1) ANTHONY BENNETT Every time I watch UNLV, I hope Bennett stays one more year. The Suns are loaded with future first round picks. UNLV has very odd substitiution patterns with Bennett. I can’t figure out if he’s out-of-shape or […]
Michael Jordan recently said five is greater than one, so Kobe Bryant is better than LeBron James. When the careers of Kobe and James are finished, only one will look like a man. Kobe Bryant is the second-most talented player in basketball history. Kobe is in first place as the most-petulant hall-of-famer or hall of […]
The Paterno family is trying to restore the legacy of Joe Paterno and have responded to the Freeh Report by former FBI Director, Louis Freeh. The family conducted their own investigation and maintains that Joe Pa was not complicit in a cover-up of child sexual abuse by former assistant Jerry Sandusky. “The Freeh Report reflects […]

Doug and Wolf will discuss all of the past, future and controversial news surrounding Arizona sports and its players. The […]
Went to D-backs Fan Fest Saturday and spoke with Kirk Gibson, Paul Goldschmidt, Kevin Towers and Daniel Hudson. Here are some observations from our talks with them… Kirk Gibson It’s very strange how Gibby never makes eye contact with me but does with Wolf. Either I’m beneath him because I only made it to Varsity […]
