What is the point in even taking defensive players to these all-star games anymore? It’s not like anybody actually tries to stop the other side from scoring. When was the last time you saw a real NHL game where the teams combined for 21 goals? Or when was the last time that two NFL teams [...]
It’s the time of year when all gamblers get a litmus test of sorts to see if they have a problem of not. Yes, this weekend is the NFL’s Pro Bowl.
The game itself is about as meaningless as it gets. As opposed to other sport’s all-star games, the NFL actually changes the rules for its [...]
Like in most games this season, the name Ochocinco will be absent from the NFL next year (if there’s no labour stoppage of course). Yes, after a season below his high standards, falling to second fiddle behind the “great” Terrell Owens, Chad Ochocinco will be changing his name back to Chad Johnson.
It was a nice [...]
Football fans couldn’t have asked for any better results on Sunday – although two more weeks of the Rex Ryan and Co. show wouldn’t have been bad – since the two best teams won their conferences and will now meet in the Super Bowl. Yes, it will be the Green Bay Packers facing the Pittsburgh [...]
Two tickets to Dallas will be punched this Sunday. Well, it’ll probably be a lot more considering that there are a lot more than two people on each team that wins. Also, you have to figure in the amount of fans that will book their flights after a victory. Plus, you can’t rule out people [...]
I really had some high hopes for this coming NHL all-star game. Perhaps the second worst of all showcases of its kind (we all know the Pro Bowl is the biggest sham), the sport of ice hockey tried to revolutionize the format by letting the players pick sides.
This could have been great, except they chose [...]
And just like that, the two favourites went down. Yes, while many will claim they know what is going to happen in the wild world of the NFL, I’m sure that a select few would have chosen the two No. 6 seeds to defeat the two No. 1 seeds this past weekend.
While many probably weren’t [...]
As we progress deeper into the NFL post-season, these games just get better and better and now, by fate, we’re being treated to two intense division matchups that would blow the roofs of the hosts’ stadiums; you know, if those venues had roofs.
The home teams are in CAPs and the lines are from Vegas.
PITTSBURGH -3 [...]
Xavi, Andres Iniesta and Lionel Messi. It’s hard to argue that any of them wouldn’t be a fine winner of the FIFA Player of the Year. But, of the three, one simply doesn’t belong and he turned out to be the winner of the award.
Don’t get me wrong, Lionel Messi is the best forward in [...]
Greatest upset weekend ever?
This past weekend we might have seen two of the biggest surprise outcomes in recent football history. And it is thanks to football games from both sides of the pond. Two teams from vastly inferior backgrounds took out their supposedly superior rivals to the shock of many. You might have heard of [...]
