As we approach the NBA’s all-star events this weekend, the stars seem to be bailing in favour of some mid-season time off. Several big names had already declared that they didn’t want to play this weekend due to injuries. First, Yao Ming was voted to the start the all-star game while he was still on [...]
Schottenheimer Fired
Even after receiving what seemed like a vote of confidence not too long ago, Marty Schottenheimer wasn’t able to avoid the axe and was fired last night. This comes after Marty foolishly turned down a contract extension while he was seemingly on the hot seat too. Many NFL personalities called for this move after [...]
Kings in London
It appears that the Los Angeles Kings will be opening next season with a game in London, England. This follows the news that the NFL will also have England host a regular season game early in their upcoming season. The NHL hasn’t had a game outside of North America since the 1997-1998 season [...]
Arenas stumped
Agent Zero may have guaranteed too much when he promised to drop large amounts of points on the coaches who cut him from Team U.S.A. Playing against a mediocre Portland club, Arenas on managed 9 points on 3 for 15 shooting. Apparently Gil has finally written a check that his skills couldn’t cash. Maybe [...]

Apparently, Zizuo himself was in attendance for a recent Knicks and even had a conversation with Knicks die-hard fan Spike Lee. This only throws fuel onto the fire that Zidane will come to play MLS ball in the near future. Could you even imagine what Zidane and Spike would talk about? I [...]
The Leafs listen to my advice.Apparently the Toronto Maple Leafs read my post yesterday regarding their winning streak. It seems they took my advice and decided to quash their winning streak by losing to Nashville. We’ll see on Saturday if they continue following my advice and take a dive and convince their fans that they [...]
Cowboys hire Wade Phillips
After weeks of searching for an heir to Bill Parcells head coaching throne in Dallas, Jerry Jones has decided to hire Wade Phillips away from the San Diego Chargers. Phillips was serving as the Chargers defensive coordinator but will more so remembered for coaching the Buffalo Bills when the Music City Miracle [...]
It’s not very often that a winning streak could possibly hurt your team. Very rarely would it be better for a team to perform badly for a given stretch. It just so happens that the Toronto Maple Leafs are in this rarified air right now (Also the Boston Celtics apply here, but that’s more in [...]
Beckham!
I figured that it had been a while since I had wrote the name David Beckham in this blog so I thought he deserved a posting.
With the MLS schedule being announced yesterday, soccer fans in the U.S. finally know when David Beckham will suit up for the L.A. Galaxy. Fans in Toronto should be rejoicing [...]
