After letting everyone settle down after a week of mourning the death of former NHL coach Pat Burns and with his funeral taking place Monday, I have something to say regarding him: Why was there so much commotion to put him in the Hall of Fame? Was he really that much of a sure-fire candidate?
I [...]
It seems that every week there’s a new No. 1 team in the NFC. Last week, all the hype was on the Green Bay Packers after an impressive run. Before that, it was the Philadelphia Eagles, who destroyed the Washington Redskins. Before that, it was the New York Giants being touted as the top team. [...]
That play was pretty much the epitome of what it feels like to be a Cowboys fan this season. Just when you think that they’ve pulled it together and are living up to all the potential that a team rife with all-pros should have, it all comes crashing down.
After scoring to take the lead and [...]
I may not be American, or live in the States, but I sure do love their Thanksgiving – I don’t even make a turkey either. Nope, it’s getting to sit back, relax and watch wall-to-wall NFL football while everybody else is at work. Yes, I’ll use a vacation day every year to watch the ’Boys [...]
Wasn’t there supposed to some sort of debate in the MLB MVP races? Were we really supposed to get two landslide winners? The two award winners combed to collect 53 of a possible 60 first-place votes. Talk about a race, right?
In the National League, Joey Votto was nearly unanimous in taking his award, losing only [...]
Peyton Manning showed off his usual clutch form again yesterday in New England. He was truly in playoff shape, throwing a terrible interception to seal the game for the Patriots late in the fourth quarter, when overtime was looming.
To set it up, in case you haven’t seen it, Manning and the Colts were down by [...]
Just what is appropriate for a team to do in the case of a blowout? Should you stop throwing deep? Pull your starters? Play “vanilla” when on defence?
Quite frankly, yes on all three of those statements. There’s no such thing as style points in NFL wins and the probability of tiebreaker for the playoffs or [...]
The NHL should scrap its awards show. There, I said it.
Seriously, what’s the point of continuing to be the lone sport with a show like this? Just look at what Major League Baseball has been doing this past week or so: Announcing an award winner every day and keeping their sport in the spotlight. With [...]
The Bears defence is actually a lot better than you might think it is. Overall, they’re ranked No. 4 in the league, while ranking No.4 and No. 2 against the pass and the run respectively. They’re also first in yards per passing attempt against and third in rushing yards per attempt. No wonder they have [...]
Do you think that the Washington Redskins are already regretting that five-year, $70-million deal (that could potentially be worth $88 million) that they signed Donovan McNabb to? I’m quite sure that after last night’s beat down they suffered on Monday Night Football, they have to be.
It may not be McNabb’s fault that the Skins defence [...]
