Well, in the best move they could probably make, the NFL has told Michael Vick to stay away from Falcons training until this whole dog-fighting situation has been worked out. He will be arraigned in court on what turns out to be the first day of Falcons practice so the timing couldn’t be better (or [...]
If you thought that the world of sports hasn’t been rocked by enough scandals recently, you wish came true when the new surfaced that an NBA referee, Tim Donaghy, was betting on and influencing games that he was officiated. Even worse than that fact alone, is that several of the games were playoff games, most [...]
It’s looking like Barry Bonds is on the cusp of becoming the all-time home run king. I’m sure that parade planners and firework suppliers are gearing up for the event that should highlight the polar opposites of the baseball world; the Bonds haters and the Bonds lovers.
Yesterday afternoon, after resting his aching legs for the [...]
This is not to be confused with (and it really shouldn’t) Dante’s Divine Comedy, a mighty fine work. One could say that the Daunte this post relates to had some great work early on in his career and it wouldn’t be hard to question it. But since losing his muse, Daunte’s career has gone nowhere [...]
Michael Vick’s dog-fighting saga is coming to a head and it doesn’t look good for the Falcons starting quarterback. Vick and three others are charged with competitive dogfighting, procuring and training pit bulls for fighting and conducting the enterprise across state lines.

With the 10-2 thumping the St. Louis Cardinals gave them, the Phillies became the first professional sports team ever to lose 10,000 games. It took decades of commitment and the fans were put through some winning seasons which slowed [...]
What a glorious headline that is, don’t you think? With only a few games taking place last night, some reporters looked for actual news to write into their publications. There was even an are-you-serious-type story out of Boston that probably caught a few people off guard.
It turns out that Albert Pujols isn’t upset about being [...]
For those who didn’t know, yesterday and Monday were the only two days on the calendar in which no professional sports have games played. Since Monday always has the home run derby, today is pretty much the least eventful sports day of the year. Sure you can count NBA signings as news, but they’ve been [...]
While I get ready for tomorrow’s uber-post, last night’s MLB all-star game should garner some attention from the sports world, even though it was slotted into a jam-packed day of sports. That was sarcasm in case you couldn’t tell.
Ichiro made some instant history last night and won the game’s MVP award because of it. After [...]
