Hey FIFA, let’s not go and ruin a good thing, OK?
The very fact that the world’s governing body of the beautiful game is thinking about eliminating draws at the World Cup really makes you think about how incompetent the heads of FIFA are. Sepp Blatter has made bad decisions before, but none that could seriously [...]
It looks like Brandon Marshall doesn’t really read the newspapers or the Internet. The Miami Dolphins wide receiver thinks that, if there is an NFL lockout next season (highly likely), he can simply just strap on his sneakers and play some NBA basketball.
The problem with that is that, like the NFL, the NBA is very [...]
Darrelle Revis and the New York all-star Jets need to end this contract argument and end it very soon. This Super Bowl contender is on the verge of — and is supposedly fine with — starting this coming season without the superstar cornerback.
The biggest problem between the two sides is that one is making an [...]
It took a little while to get it up a running, but it looks like our twin blog, Up in the Nosebleeds, is live.

In honour of Alex Rodriguez’s long wait to finally hit No. 600, I decided to take a little while to write a post about it. Yes, he finally did it on Wednesday afternoon, against the Blue Jays’ Shaun Marcum. He ended a stretch that lasted almost 50 at bats between hitting No. 599 and the [...]
Breaking news: Brett Favre has retired… again… for the third time now. Will it stick? Who knows.
I’m sure every newspaper and sports website is running the same column today by their NFL writer. That column goes a little something like this: “Sure Brett, we’ll see in a few weeks how you feel.”
It’s an easy stance [...]
In perhaps what is the worst case ever of “but what have you done for us lately,” The Chicago Blackhawks have balked at paying Antti Niemi $2.75 million US per season and cut him loose. Instead, they went the cheap, cap-effecient route again – a theme of this off-season – and signed veteran netminder Marty [...]
Major League Baseball’s non-waiver trade deadline has come and gone. Just like we see every year, some big guys were traded while a lot weren’t. It even seemed a bit slow this year because the further we move into the Twitter era of reporting, the more reporters feel the need to report the littlest of [...]
Sam Bradford might be a St. Louis Ram, but he’s still the luckiest man alive right now.
The No.1 pick in this year’s draft should be the last man to receive a ludicrous amount of money without having played a single down in pro football.
The Rams signed their quarterback of the future to a six-year, $78-million [...]
