Today, I caught the tail end of Jack and Jackie Harbaugh (father and mother of the Harbowl brothers) doing a press conference to a room packed with ravenous reporters. Apologies to my Ranters for not catching the whole thing. (Hoping to go to Beyonce’s tomorrow so stay tuned folks). Much thanks to Gatorade for getting [...]
The Tampa Bay Lightning set out on a mission to upgrade their defense this past offseason. They did just that, adding two veteran defensemen in Sami Salo and Matt Carle, who haven’t disappointed. Obviously joining a new team is never easy but both players, especially Salo, have handled the transition quite well. A former Vancouver [...]
The Seattle Mariners have been adding bats this offseason like they were going out of style. While many perceived that to mean that the team was happy with the projected rotation heading into 2013, it may have just meant the team was biding their time and looking for the right deal. With pitchers and catchers [...]
The Los Angeles Lakers looked as though they had finally turned the corner over the last couple of games. Everyone was getting involved, the defense had improved, and Kobe Bryant was suddenly pass-happy, averaging 12 assists over the last four games. It was starting to look as though the Lakers were going to make [...]
The Free Merriam-Webster Dictionary defines tragicomedy as “a drama or a situation blending tragic and comic elements.” In my opinion, nothing could better describe the Manti Te’o hoax and the national freaking out that has gone along with it. This is both a comedy and a tragedy, and sadly it’s only been treated as a [...]
The Rhode Island Rams have seen better days. Rhode Island has not been to the NCAA Tournament since 1999, when Lamar Odom hit a 3-point shot in the Atlantic-10 Tournament to send the Rams dancing. In 1998, Jim Harrick’s Rams were all but in the Final Four until a series of plays and missed calls left the backcourt [...]
According to USA Today, students from Sandy Hook Elementary School will be singing America the Beautiful during the Super Bowl XLVII pregame show.

The week leading up to Super Bowl XLVII has been quite exciting for members of the Baltimore Ravens considering all of the questions surrounding Ray Lewis being linked to PED. However, the argument can be made that Joe Flacco has found himself in a more difficult situation after making inappropriate comments about his feelings towards [...]
Last week, Philadelphia Union midfielder Brian Carroll was named the captain for the 2013 season. Last season, he was the captain for a few games while Carlos Valdes was playing for the Colombian National Team. Carroll is the right choice for captaincy. He is a great leader on and off the field and has the [...]
It’s great to turn on the Speed Channel, and actually see some racing activity. Preseason Thunder got underway on Thursday morning from Daytona International Speedway, and the afternoon session was carried by the Speed Channel. Race teams are testing all of the specifications with the new Gen 6 car prior to the season opening Daytona 500 next month. [...]
Kevin Harvick, the 37 year old driver of the No. 29 Budweiser Cheverolet for Richard Childress Racing has accomplished everything he can, and it’s time to move on. With speculation that Harvick will move to Stewart Haas Racing at the end of the 2013 season, I find it hard to believe he hasn’t jumped ship [...]
Jeff Burton will have a new face leading his No. 31 team this weekend. Drew Blickensderfer has led Burton’s team since Daytona, but hasn’t gotten the job done well enough to satisfy Richard Childress Racing standards. It is well known that Burton has struggled mightily since 2010 where he had six top five finishes with [...]

Ricky Stenhouse Jr. only led 22 of the 200 laps at Chicagoland Speedway, but he led the last and most important lap in order to win the NASCAR Nationwide Series race. Ricky started the Dollar General 300 from the third position. Joey Logano in the No 18 started the race but quickly gave it up [...]

The race to make the coveted Chase for the Sprint Cup championship hits an immediate end this weekend at Richmond. The top 10 in points are all but a lock to make NASCAR‘s playoffs. But, there are eight drivers fighting for the lone two “wild card” positions. Here is a list of drivers within the top [...]
Paul Menard and the No.27 team of Richard Childress Racing are the latest team to be penalized by NASCAR. NASCAR announced on Wednesday that the No.27 team of RCR has been penalized due to infractions that were made during the race weekend at Michigan.
