First, first and a first

by Dan Bilicki In: Fantasy, Football, Picks

The Giants and Titans both got back on track and defeated some tough opponents on the very fields they’ll be defending during the playoffs up until the Super Bowl – if they should make it that far. But the real first that everyone is talking about occurred on the opposite end of the spectrum – [...]

Filthy Swede

by Dan Bilicki In: Hockey

Mats Sundin has finally made up his mind about where he wants to play this season, even though it’s already two months into the season. He’s chosen the Vancouver Canucks over several suitors like the Rangers, Canadiens, Wings, Flyers and the Leafs. But, he didn’t just become a Canuck when he signed on the dotted [...]

Week 16 Picks

by Dan Bilicki In: Football, Hockey, Picks

With the Colts clinching a playoff spot and Mats Sundin finally deciding where he wants to play this season, two mysteries of the sports world were banged out yesterday. While the Colts had an inside route to their final destination, it really came down to the wire with the crafty Swede who came to the [...]

The Big Three

by Dan Bilicki In: Basketball, Football, Picks

Can we just give the winner of the Xmas day game between the Celtics and the Lakers the NBA title and then fast forward to the summer of 2010? Or would you rather wait for the victor to take on the Cavs before making that call? I think it might be safer that way. With [...]

It’s snub time!

by Dan Bilicki In: Football

Every time an all-whatever roster is named, there’s going to be snubs. With the Pro Bowl teams named yesterday, the joy of criticizing the picks is here. But first, why in the world are the Pro Bowl teams being named when the regular season is still two games from completion? Could they not wait the [...]

Poor Arena League…

by Dan Bilicki In: Basketball, Football, Hockey

Well, it had been rumoured for a week or so but now it’s official, there will be no Arena Football season in 2009. This is just another cut in the sports universe during these trying financial times but at least the league hasn’t halted operations for good and folded outright. The AFL will be back [...]

What drama?

by Dan Bilicki In: Football

For a team that’s supposedly divided down to the core, the Cowboys played one hell of a game against the Giants last night. After all the talk of the Witten-Romo vs. T.O. and the rest of the wide outs saga was the story of the week, Dallas held down the fort and disposed of the [...]

Week 15 picks

by Dan Bilicki In: Fantasy, Football, Picks

I guess someone forgot to tell Pierre Thomas that you’re not supposed to be able to run against the Bears. I guess they just overlooked them because they hadn’t heard about him before. In fairness, I overlooked him too, starting Reggie Bush over Thomas as a runningback in one of my fantasy playoffs.
Now for this [...]

Deal mania!

by Dan Bilicki In: Baseball, Basketball, Football, Picks

Well, the CC Sabathia sweepstakes have been won by the team that we knew would win them all along, the Yankees. And all it took was the richest pitching contract in the history of baseball. At seven years and $161 million, he’ll never live up to that kind of price. I just want to know [...]

Darko is the man

by Dan Bilicki In: Basketball

Just a quick little video link here. If Darko showed the kind of passion on the floor playing as he did ripping off his jersey – Hulk Hogan-style – maybe he wouldn’t be one of the most memorable busts in the history of the NBA.
