Last season, one of the biggest surprises turned out to be Matt Flynn losing the starting job with the Seattle Seahawks to Russell Wilson–who played a key role in helping the team reach the playoffs last year. Now, Flynn is looking forward to a fresh start with the Oakland Raiders and while the competition may [...]
The storied divisional rivalry between the Chicago Blackhawks and Detroit Red Wings had to end the way it did on Wednesday night. It wasn’t pretty at all, with penalties, shoving and controversy in abundance, but in the end, the two teams, who will now be in opposite conferences, shook hands in the middle of the [...]
After a shaky start to the regular season, the Philadelphia Phillies are slowly working their way back to having a .500 record after another impressive win over the Boston Red Sox on Wednesday. For a team that has been dealing with too many injuries, the Phillies have had to overcome more than they would have [...]
This season the New York Knicks were able to win a playoff series and advance to the second round of the NBA postseason for the first time in over a decade before fizzing out against the Indiana Pacers. One of the reasons for the Knicks demise was their lack of a complementary scorer to Carmelo [...]
Although the Clemson Tigers are by no means considered a huge underdog in their August 31, season-opening contest against the Georgia Bulldogs, not many actually expect them to win the game. Hang with the ‘Dawgs? Yes. Beat them? No. However, this week the Tigers were bestowed upon them a gift, via the off-season misfortunes of [...]
Christian Watford may not be the most raved about player entering the 2013 NBA Draft, but he was great for the Indiana Hoosiers, even in his senior season when Cody Zeller and Victor Oladipo seemed like the only two talked about players on this team. Who knows if Watford will make it in the NBA, [...]
Over the last couple of years, photo bombing has become quite the popular trend with professional sports and whether you’re a fan of the acts or not–you can’t deny the fact that it’s hysterical to see athletes pull them off. One of the latest victims–Cam Newton of the Carolina Panthers. As you can see in [...]
Ripping Washington D.C. of its famous “Redskins” nickname is like taking the Cowboys out of Dallas and then renaming them the Dallas Sheriffs. Sure, the change might satisfy the radical groups who love to rain on parades, but dropping Redskins should not be in the plans of perhaps the most popular NFL team. Unfortunately, the radical groups [...]
A torrid start to the season for Baltimore Orioles 1B Chris Davis has continued all the way through May, and there is no end in sight for his fantasy baseball owners. Davis crushed his league-leading 18th and 19th home runs during a 4-for-4 night in Wednesday’s 9-6 win over the Washington Nationals Wednesday night. After [...]
I seriously hope that England has far more options to pick from later this year when the crucial World Cup qualifiers arrive, because from tonight’s performance, there was little to be hopeful about. Joe Hart — 6/10 Hart had a fairly uneventful outing. He was beaten by a great Shane Long header, which he can’t [...]
The Kansas City Chiefs Hall Of Fame added a new member, three-time Pro Bowl safety, Gary Barbaro. He is the forty-third Chief to get this honor. I think it’s pretty cool anytime any Chief who played from 1974-1988 gets recognized. Yes, the Chiefs only made the playoffs one time in that span, and pretty much [...]
Now that the Super Bowl is a month old, it’s the perfect time to discuss the Leon Sandcastle ad. What did you think Kansas City Chiefs fans? Were you bummed as it reminded everyone that the Chiefs have the number one pick in the draft, a pick they’ve never had in their entire history? They [...]
Mike Greenberg, of ESPN’s “Mike And Mike In The Morning” radio show, was happy about the Alex Smith trade between the Kansas City Chiefs and the San Fancisco 49ers, and thought it was a good move for the Chiefs. Anyone who has ever listened to Greenberg pick games for more than thirty seconds will realize [...]
Shoot. After getting my hopes up of getting another overpriced back-up QB named Matt, the Seattle Seahawks said they would not be trading Matt Flynn (or Matt Leinhart). And here I thought the Kansas City Chiefs were starting a new tradition. You know, like the tradition King Carl Peterson had of signing San Francisco 49ers [...]
Chief Thoughts: Pro Bowl, Hermpire and Some Stuff FINALLY, after three and a half years, “Chief Thoughts” by JD has come BACK, to the internet. For those of you who did not catch my act the first time around on another website, “Chief Thoughts” is a HIGHLY opinionated rambling collection of attempted witticisms and [...]
