2010…A GREAT YEAR FOR SPORTS…
Well another year comes to a close, as does another interesting and exciting year in sports. There were so many great moments so I will list my favorites chronologically. These are the most interesting, so you know Tiger will get a mention. I also want to wish everyone a Happy and Safe New Year!!! So with that, [...]
SHANAHAN MAKING A BAD SITUATION WORSE…IF THATS POSSIBLE IN WASHINGTON…
Mike Shanahan has actually gone far beyond what I thought he could achieve with the Washington Redskins. He’s actually made a bad situation worse. When he was initially announced as the coach and decision maker, i.e. GM, I figured he might be able to add some credibility to this once proud franchise. These are [...]
GIANTS LOSE AGAIN…AND ITS ALL COUGHLIN’S FAULT???
The Giants lost again…and it’s head coach Tom Coughlin’s fault??? I’m not saying he’s the second coming of Vince Lombardi, but he has won a Super Bowl in the last three years. Whenever the Giants lose, it’s Coughlin’s fault, and when they win it’s the players. Doesn’t Coughlin ever get the credit!!! I’m not the biggest Tom Coughlin [...]
EITHER THE OHIO STATE AD IS STUPID…OR HE THINKS WE ARE…
Ohio State athletic director, Gene Smith, must have a great sense of humor, because he can’t possibly expect us to believe that his players didn’t know that it was against the rules to sell their Big Ten Championship rings, amongst other Ohio State football memorabilia which was sold or bartered. When I heard his explanation [...]
TOP 10 NFL QB’S, FAVRE NOT ONE OF THEM…
Seeing Brett Favre possibly play his last game, it got me to thinking. Is Favre one of the top 10 QB’s of all time, and after careful consideration, the answer is no. Favre has all the stats and records for yards, touchdowns, and completions, but if I had to take a quarterback to build a [...]
NOTRE DAME FOOTBALL IN DISARRAY…..
Notre Dame football is in disarray, and there is plenty of blame to go around. In the last 2 months a videographer died while filming football practice in 50+ mile an hour wind, and a female student from neighboring St. Mary’s College committed suicide after allegedly being sexually assaulted by a Notre Dame football player. Does [...]
BOB FELLER, A TRUE AMERICAN HERO…NOT LIKE TODAY….
Bob Feller is a true American hero. Bob Feller will be remembered as “Rapid Robert”, one of the best pitchers ever to play the game of baseball. He should also be remembered for what he did on December 8, 1941. He became the first Major League Baseball player to volunteer for combat duty by enlisting in the [...]
LEE’S A PHILLIE????…AGAIN????
Cliff Lee is a Phillie once again. In a strange twist, the Phillies have positioned themselves as the favorite to win the 2011 World Series. I didn’t see this one coming. The Phillies now boast the best starting rotation in baseball, Halladay, Oswalt, Hamels, and now Lee. The Yankees are now left holding the bag, as Lee took [...]
CAM NEWTON WINS HEISMAN, BUT LEFT OFF ALL-AMERICAN TEAM
The Football Writers Association of America has left Cam Newton off the All American team two days after he was honored as the best college football player in the country. This is just a continuation of the farce that has become of sports writers treating awards as if they are the Nobel Peace Prize. There were [...]
RED $OX COME OUT WINNERS ….
The Boston Red Sox have come out of baseball’s winter meetings the BIG winners, but I don’t ever want to hear them say they they can’t compete with the Yankees again. That has been the refrain from Boston the last few years. They added power hitting first baseman Adrian Gonzalez,28, and speedy Carl Crawford,29, who is coming off [...]
