After months of talking about it, it finally happened: The Pittsburgh Steelers vs. The Buffalo Bills at the Rogers Centre in Toronto. Sure, it was just a preseason game, but this was a huge step towards ridding Western New York of their football team to a more profitable market. I’m sure the Bills faithful will [...]
While taking some time off of Madden 09 to watch the Olympics (Madden review coming soon!), I’ve really started to appreciate some of the fringe “sports.” Now, being a guy who would normally bash people who have dedicated their lives to swimming, male gymnastics and beach volleyball, I found myself quite drawn to the tube [...]
Nothing like waking up extra early on a Sunday morning to watch team USA battle some champions of communism. This was definitely a tale of two halves. Thanks to the American’s ineptitude at guarding the 3-point line, China was able to stay in it for the first half. But eventually the lack of depth on [...]
Well, you have to give it the Czech Repiublic. For a while there, they were the leading medalists at the 2008 Olympic Games after winning the first possible Gold Medal in air rifle shooting. Katerina Emmons probably won’t be remembered a year from now (maybe even a month from now) but at least she’s on [...]
Since Dan likes to rain on my parade, it looks like I am going to have to put my summer on hold and write down my predictions for the Olympic Basketball. I was all about team USA and I thought for sure they were going to bulldoze their way into the gold medal game, but [...]
The Olympics come and go every four years and for some reason, people dedicate their lives to these games. Athletes train day in and day out for the chance to compete in a silly event that occurs every four years. Sure, they have some smaller events in the time in between The Games, but for [...]
Yep, the headline’s right. Favre, the universally known best “good guy” in all of football is a wanker. It’s come to the point where I am sick to death of hearing about his saga this offseason. He’s pulled this type of drama before with his will-he-play debates for the past few years and now it’s [...]
I was all set to write about the ongoing, seemingly never-ending, Brett Favre vs. Green Bay saga until I saw that LeBron James would actually consider pulling a Josh Childress and playing in Europe. And that would mean turning down a chance to play for Jay-Z’s Brooklyn Nets in 2010. Apparently all it would cost [...]
I’ve been to all kinds of sporting events before. I’ve been to baseball games, football games, basketball games, hockey games and even a few cock fights (just kidding). I’ve seen a World Series game and a heated rivalry playoff game but nothing compared to this.
The Angels and Yankees battled to a 1-0 game with the [...]
And gone. Manny Ramirez has finally (successfully) got himself traded away from the Red Sox and the Los Angeles Dodgers were more than willing to take him off their hands. Now the only problems that Boston has to deal with are the surging Yankees, the first-place Rays (who didn’t improve at all at the deadline) [...]
