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 – [...]
New York Mets star prospect pitcher Zack Wheeler was expected to get called up to the big league roster this week, but it looks like the highly anticipated debut will have to wait another weekend as Wheeler is expected to get one more start before joining the team. Now, it looks like Wheeler will join [...]
The injury bug has bitten the New York Yankees almost too many times this season. The team has survived many of their star players going down and some that have yet to return to the diamond this season. Aside from Michael Pineda, Curtis Granderson and Mark Teixeira all being injured prior to the season, shortstop [...]
The Miami Marlins selected North Carolina third baseman Colin Moran with the sixth pick of the 2013 MLB Draft and then selected left-handed pitcher Matt Krook with the 35th pick. The Marlins addressed a definite need in a corner infielder with Moran then continued to build pitching depth with Krook. The next pick the Marlins had [...]
After making a top choice pick in third baseman Colin Moran, the Miami Marlins did not pick again until the 35th pick of the 2013 MLB Draft. The Marlins, incredibly deep at the pitchers position, decided that the team would need another pitcher to add to the depth that they have. With the No. 35 pick [...]
The New York Mets had trouble in the offseason trying to secure its No. 11 pick in the 2013 MLB Draft. The Mets wanted to sign a free agent that was offered a qualifying offer but due to its record, New York would lose the No. 11 pick. After hearings, the ruling was made so [...]
If there was one thing that the Miami Marlins needed to target in the 2013 MLB Draft, it was the corners of the infield. Miami selected Andrew Heaney last year and Jose Fernandez two years ago, laying down the foundation for the pitching staff for years to come. With Christian Yelich and Giancarlo Stanton already [...]
The Miami Marlins do not have an actual closer. Steve Cishek has been filling the role ever since the disaster that was Heath Bell lost his job in the middle of last season and was traded to the Arizona Diamondbacks in the offseason. Cishek has not been the most reliable closer, but other teams might look [...]
Months and weeks have gone by, and everyone is waiting for New York Yankees third baseman Alex Rodriguez to come out of hiding and address the fans, team and media on his relationship (or lack thereof) with Anthony Bosch’s Biogenesis clinic. Everyone is waiting for him to clear his name and call it a smear campaign [...]
The New York Yankees have been without shortstop Derek Jeter since Jeter broke his ankle in the postseason against the Detroit Tigers. The Yankees’ injuries have piled up since then, with most of the infield being out at some point, including backup shortstop Eduardo Nunez. All of that seems to be ending soon. The Yankees [...]
After a poor 2012 season, the Miami Marlins were awarded with the No. 6 pick in the 2013 MLB Draft. The Marlins are looking for someone that is going to be willing to suffer through enormous amounts of reshuffling and someone who is willing to become one of the highest paid players on the team’s [...]
