We were all so excited when we finally got Lincoln University football back on the field and practicing again. It’s almost like Christmas. Getting to see those Lincoln University colors (whatever they might be) back on the football field again getting ready for the season. Well, this clip is like if Christmas ate Easter and [...]
The St. Louis Rams don’t have a lot of good players. If they did, they wouldn’t be drafting so high, so often. One of the few good players they do have is Steven Jackson, a nasty, nasty running back. And apparently, he’s aware of how good he is, because according to Mike Lombardi, he wants [...]
The Philadelphia Phillies might have one of the worst lineups in all of baseball. Check that, they do have one of the worst lineups in all of baseball. I don’t even have the stats in front of me, but I’ve learned enough through empirical data. Many fans in Philly can’t wait for the return of [...]
The Philadelphia Phillies just keep rolling. It’s not enough that they struggle to even score one run against poor pitchers, but now they keep getting good news. First, we found out that Cliff Lee had to go on the 15-day DL with a side strain. Now? The one guy they have who can hit the [...]
Tons of mock drafts say tons of stuff that isn’t true. And tons of pre-draft reports say even more stuff that is less truer (how is that for grammar?). But, most experts/mock drafter have Texas A&M QB Ryan Tannehill falling no farther than No. 8 to the Miami Dolphins. Do the Miami Dolphins even want [...]
The Philadelphia Phillies are off to a rough start. They are hovering around .500 while the rest of the division (minus the Marlins of course) is thriving. Not only that, their offense is absolutely butt awful. So, they’ll need that starting pitching, huh? Of course they will! Well, they better hope some other people step [...]
The Golden State Warriors have been a bit stumped all season by the continuing setbacks that Stephen Curry has had with his ankle. Well, now they might truly find out what has been going on. According to Marc J. Spears of Yahoo! Sports, Curry plans to have surgery on the troublesome ankle on Wednesday. “Warriors [...]
Wow. One one hand it’s kind of weird that Shea Weber didn’t get any punishment at all for his hit on Henrik Zetterberg, and now we see that the NHL is going to drop the hammer on Phoenix Coyotes forward Raffi Torres. Torres has been suspended for 25 games for his hit on Chicago Blackhawks [...]
As if the defense of the Philadelphia Flyers just couldn’t get worse after they gave up 10 goals on Wednesday night to the Pittsburgh Penguins, they will now be without yet another key defensman. Nicklas Grossman was hit in the head twice in Game 4 and will miss Game 5 with a concussion. This means [...]
We understand why there is a Combine for the NFL. NFL teams need to get a good look at these guy so they don’t go drafting one-eyed receivers like Wesley Walker and not find out about him having one eye until after they took him (turns out it didn’t matter, he was really good). But, [...]
This is hardly a shocker. I think we all knew something like this was coming the minute he opened his mouth. Chicago Blackhawks coach Joel Quenneville was absolutely livid following his team’s Game 3 loss to the Phoenix Coyotes. And rightfully so. It wasn’t just the loss. Raffi Torres absolutely leveled Marian Hossa to the [...]
The NHL playoffs have been amazing this year so far. A lot of that could be due to the absolutely bloodbaths that a few of these series have become. There has been a lot of dirty play, and Raffi Torres of the Phoenix Coyotes has been one of the poster boys. During Tuesday night’s game [...]
We are all well versed now in the bounty program that the New Orleans Saints employed over the last few years. It landed a bunch of coaches in hot water, with head coach Sean Payton getting a full year suspension. So, then the speculation turned to who would actually coach the Saints this season. Bill [...]
Tampa Bay Buccaneers CB Aqib Talib came into the league with character issues. No one denied his ability to play football, but there were several red flags regarding his behavior. And sure enough, those concerns were warranted. He’s had numerous scrapes with the law since joining the NFL and his latest act is probably his [...]
Jacksonville Jaguars RB Maurice Jones-Drew (he got married shortly after the NFL Draft) was the league’s leading rusher last season. But, his contract, which has two years remaining on it, says that he’s the eighth best running back in the league. So, there is a bit of a disconnect. Well, MJD chose not to show [...]
The San Francisco Giants are full of great young pitching, which is all well and good. It’s one of the best situations you can be in, until it’s time to pay them. They just recently doled out a huge contract to Matt Cain, and now it’s Madison Bumgarner’s turn. According to SFX, they extended Bumgarner [...]
Since signing a mega-deal with the Boston Red Sox last offseason, Carl Crawford has been a waste of space. He did next to nothing last year, and now is hurt so far this season. Crawford underwent wrist surgery in January and then had a setback with elbow soreness. So yeah, he’s not helping the Red [...]
The Baltimore Ravens traded for Lee Evans last year to help them stretch the field. He didn’t stretch much of anything all season because he was battling a busted foot and rarely saw any action. Now, it seems that the Jacksonville Jaguars are willing to roll the dice and bet that his terrible season was [...]
The Boston Red Sox are aware of what life is like without Jacoby Ellsbury. In 2010, he was on the DL almost all year, but bounced back to have an MVP-like 2011. Well, it’s good that they are used to living without him, because he won’t be playing baseball any time soon. Tampa Bay Rays [...]
Pittsburgh Steelers WR Mike Wallace is a restricted free agent and has been tendered as such. However, Wallace and his agent are putting it out there that he isn’t going to sign the tender and he isn’t going to report to OTA’s without a long-term contract. So that begs the question: will someone trade for [...]
Everyone remembers the game-winning touchdown pass that Denver Broncos QB Tim Tebow threw to Demaryius Thomas to knock off the Pittsburgh Steelers in overtime last year in the playoffs. But, according to Thomas, while everyone remembers that pass, they don’t remember all of the other dung that Tebow slung across the field where his players [...]
Well this isn’t good. With less than a minute remaining in Game 1 on the first round of the Stanley Cup Playoffs, the Nashville Predators held a 3-2 lead over the Detroit Red Wings. After the puck was dropped, Nashville killed the time on the clock to hold on and take a commanding 1-0 lead [...]
Let’s be honest, Felix Jones has just not been worth the first-round pick that the Dallas Cowboys spent on him back in 2008. He gets hurt all the time and just isn’t a load carrier. He’s rarely been the home-run threat they thought he could be either. So we shouldn’t be too surprised that Calvin [...]
The New York Giants wont the Super Bowl last season. They won it for a variety of reasons, but linebacking wasn’t one of them. They’ve been deficient at the position really since Antonio Pierce used to be good. Well, it looks like they are attempting to improve themselves there, as a source tells the Newark [...]
It doesn’t take long for things to go south for the New York Mets. They started out 4-0 and seemed poised to win all 162 games this season. But, while it’s still very, very possible, it’s going to be much more difficult now that David Wright will have to sit down for a bit. Monday [...]
