Once known as the “Windy City Flyer,” Devin Hester has taken a few steps back from meriting that moniker. Not only is Hester not a wide receiver any more — which is a great decision from the new Marc Trestman-led regime — but he also is only “competing” for the return man job. Meaning if [...]
Jonathan Quick of the Los Angeles Kings tweeted this about having to miss the finals this year: “Just tried to watch game 3, had to turn it off, Wish I was wearing a white jersey, best of luck to both team #PossesiveOfTheCup #ReneCanSing” — Jonathan Quick (@JonathanQuick32) June 18, 2013 He is a competitor and [...]
In MLB, there’s outstanding starting pitching and then there’s a level above where the starting pitching absolutely carries a team. Through the first 70 games of the 2013 season, the St. Louis Cardinals have, without question, been on that second level when it comes to their rotation. The Cardinals have enjoyed the re-emergence of Adam [...]
A major question the Indiana Pacers will have to answer during the offseason is if they’re set at the guard spot with Lance Stephenson. It’s possible the Pacers will look to make a deal to strengthen that spot, unless Stephenson gives indication he’s ready to turn his game up a few notches. Stephenson did improve [...]
Last offseason, while college football realignment rumors were spreading like wildfire all over the place to keep our football-crazed minds occupied, you could hear small whispers from folks about how it would be beneficial for the Florida State Seminoles to try to align themselves with the ever-powerful SEC. And yes, in the end that’s all [...]
The Ole Miss Rebels won the SEC tournament this past season, but it would take a miracle for them to do the same thing in the 2013-14 college basketball season. There will be many teams predicted to finish ahead of Ole Miss in the conference entering the season, to say the least. Kentucky and Florida [...]
Earlier on Monday, the New Orleans Saints cheerleaders were making headlines for releasing an amazing music video to them singing Taylor Swift‘s hit song “22.” Now, it appears the Miami Dolphins cheerleaders have taken the same approach by creating a version of their own while doing a photo shoot for the team’s upcoming calendar. That’s [...]
Tim Tebow Was Almost Drafted By the Los Angeles Angels It’s hard to imagine Tim Tebow doing anything but waddling out onto a football field and throwing the football with that weird, left-handed motion of his (and making headlines for all kinds of stuff he’s never done and likely never will), but Tebow Mania was almost [...]
Newly acquired Atlanta Falcons’ running back Steven Jackson is quite an intriguing player for the fantasy football 2013 season. Jackson, in recent years, hasn’t been viewed as a big-time running back in fantasy leagues. The 29-year-old running back is entering his 10th season in the NFL and while not posting record shattering numbers, Jackson has [...]
Mexico and Italy opened up their Confederation’s Cup campaign in a decently entertaining match which saw the Italians come out on top. The match brought us chances, passes, tackles, goals and of course mistakes. In the end, the side with the more mistakes gave up all three points for their first loss of 2013 – [...]
Are you an Indians fan struggling to figure out which games are worth watching this postseason? We’ve already covered the problem of who to root for this month, but if your biggest priority is simply seeing your old hometown heroes chasing glory, here’s a list of each of the seven former Indians players who [...]
For the fourth year in a row, the Cleveland Indians have missed the playoffs. It’s something we Tribe fans are used to by now, but it’s also something we never quite get over—great as the virtually non-stop month of postseason baseball is every year, it’s always bittersweet when the Indians aren’t involved. So who should [...]
The Cleveland Indians’ 5-4 loss to the Detroit Tigers last night wasn’t a positive note on which to end the 2011 season, but it was an exceptionally fitting one. Just as the Indians got off to a hot start this year, keeping the Tigers’ potent offense off the board and scoring first. By the middle [...]
Hard as it is to believe, Game No. 162 has arrived. That means that, once the final out is made at Comerica Park tonight, the Cleveland Indians’ 2011 season will come to an end. There isn’t much at stake in tonight’s game. The Tigers could be playing for home field advantage and an Indians win [...]
Hard as it is to believe, the 2011 MLB season comes to an end this week. Tonight, the Cleveland Indians start their final series of the season: a three-game set in Detroit. A couple months ago, it seemed as though this series might end up deciding the AL Central. The Tigers (92-67, 12 GA), however, [...]
With just three days left in the season, both leagues’ wild card races are coming down to the wire—in the NL the Cardinals have narrowed the Braves’ lead to just one game, while in the AL the Rays have nearly caught the Red Sox, and the Angels are theoretically still in the race. But the [...]
The 2011 MLB season is nearing its end, and for Cleveland fans, the wait ’til next year is about more than just the Tribe—it’ll be several months before we get to see any other teams playing the Indians again. This packed weekend (four games in 48 hours) is the penultimate series of the season for [...]
With Josh Tomlin now shut down for the rest of the season, someone had to take his place in the rotation for his scheduled start Saturday. Apparently, that someone is Mitch Talbot. Talbot, 27, had a rough start to the 2011 season, going 2-6 with a 6.33 ERA in 11 outings (to be fair, it [...]
If you’ve never seen Community, you’re missing out. While the first season wasn’t terribly special, during Season 2 (last year) the show established itself as the funniest non-animated show on TV. It’s no Arrested Development, but it’s probably the closest we’re likely to see for a while (except, of course, for Archer). This week, as Community returns [...]
The 2011 MLB season is winding down, and now that the Cleveland Indians are officially out of the playoff race the games don’t much matter (though they still have something to play for). But that doesn’t mean we shouldn’t be interested in the Tribe’s swan song against a trio of familiar division foes. Today, the Chicago [...]
