Baseball kind of gets lost in the shuffle here in Canada around this time of the year. You have ice hockey starting up, the NFL going strong south of the border and some fans are even still into the CFL. It’s a real pity too, consider that this is the best that baseball gets.
In the [...]

Is it just me, or has this been a disappointing season to be a fan of an NFL team? How many fan bases right now can say they are legitimately happy with their teams right now and haven’t had any disappointing moments? Not one, because on Sunday, the final undefeated team fell.
Yes, yes, we’ve all [...]

So Randy Moss is returning to the Vikings. How often do you see a serious superstar traded mid-season in the NFL? As far as I can remember, it has never happened. You have to believe that Bill Belichick knows something, when you consider that the Patriots and Vikings are facing each other in a few [...]

Ice hockey returns and it is 19 degrees outside, what a great concept. Yes, global warming and the game of puck don’t go too well together, but at least you can still wear your favourite team’s jersey outside without having to cover it up with a jacket. Or you could be living in Phoenix or [...]

Enough can’t be said about how great Roy Halladay’s performance was last night. Pitching a no-hitter in the playoffs is something that has only happened once before. Pitching a second no-hitter in the same season is another feat that is rarely seen too. Pretty good for a guy making his first ever start in the [...]

Seriously Alberto Contador? Seriously?
It is finally time to completely give up on cycling forever. For the umpteenth time, the guy who won the Tour de France has failed a doping test.
How many times are we going to be put through this mess? A guy gets caught by the sport’s increasingly improved tests, he makes up [...]

This is the time of year when Major League Baseball really shines. This is when the best of the best meet after a gruelling 162-game schedule pared down the have-nots and left us with the eight best teams in the game. But I have to ask, is ending the regular season on a Sunday in [...]

At the beginning of this season, I would have thought it a big long shot, but after watching the handle division rival Seattle on Sunday, I’m starting to buy into Sam Bradford’s crew. Now, I’m not going as far as to say they will make the playoffs – and would most likely be a double-digit [...]

18 games is looking like a probability for the future of the NFL and, as much as we the fans would love to see the extra tilts, it’s not the best idea to have these players submit their bodies to two additional games when they’re already getting injured and beaten down more and more every [...]
