The internet has been ablaze with some reports about a possible Donovan McNabb trade over the past few days and, really, the buzz is rightfully deserved.
McNabb is still one of the better quarterbacks in the game, but he has slowly started to chip away at the patience of the fans in the City of Brotherly [...]
I don’t like Duke. There I said it. I’m annoyed by their team and their history. Granted, I’m no fan of their chief rivals, the North Carolina Tar Heels, but there’s just something about the Blue Devils that ultimately annoys me. Now, the Blue Devils are the only No. 1 that remains in the NCAA [...]
Somehow, I’m still alive playing in suicide pool, NCAA style. It’s getting really tough though, with a lot of strategy involved in picking today’s winner and Sunday’s while leaving at least two potential teams for next week’s Final Four, but I think I’ve got this locked down.
For Saturday’s matchups, I’ll be taking Butler to beat [...]
I guess I forgot to mention, with the hoopla of a few days off from the tournament, I forgot to make my suicide pool picks. Well, you’ll have to believe me on this one, but for Thursday night’s games, my team was Kansas State over Xavier, which really had me sweating. Believe me, I was [...]
Keeping up the trend of great games and stunning upsets, the Sweet 16 did not let anyone down on Thursday night. From Syracuse not being able to overcome Butler, to West Virginia having a bit of trouble with Washington to Kentucky not exactly impressing me against Cornell to the spectacular double overtime battle between Xavier [...]
The NFL has started the wheels turning and actually changed one of their rules that was antiquated and hasn’t made sense for years. From here on out, if a playoff game goes into overtime, there will be no more griping about a field goal deciding a team’s biggest game of the season without having had [...]
The Twins have done the right thing and signed their franchise player, Joe Mauer, to a massive deal that will keep him in town for nearly a decade. In fact, the two sides agreed to an eight-year, $184 million deal. To put that in perspective, if your annual salary was $50,000, it would take you [...]
I’m not sure if even solace can be given by the Kansas Jayhawks, Villanova Wildcats or Georgetown Hoyas for breaking as many brackets as they did in the first four days of the NCAA tournament. I can never remember so many pre-tourney faves going down so early on. Heck, I can never remember a No. [...]
I may not have a viable bracket any more, but at least I’m still alive – surprisingly – in this semi suicide pool. For today’s pick, I’ll go with West Virgina over Missouri. I don’t want to use either No. 1 playing on Sunday yet, and nobody else really stands out.
Day two lacked the sizzle that day one had in the NCAA tournament, but can you really fault it? It’s not like days can control which games take place on them. And, if you think about it, would you rather have had the amazingness of Thursday spread out over two days, or all of that [...]
