When a player’s NFL career is finished, they usually are not responsible for that decision. Teams chose against even making phone calls and it ends instantly for an individual. Others try to hang on despite long odds hoping for another chance. The New York Jets may give such opportunity shortly. Reports state that New York [...]
The Carolina Hurricanes entered the offseason with one of their highest draft picks in a long time. The 2013 Draft has also been said to have some of the best prospects from a draft in years. Jim Rutherford has said that he would entertain offers for their fifth overall pick if it involved a top [...]
The Colorado Rockies made some changes to their MLB roster before they were defeated 4-2 by the San Diego Padres on Saturday. The Rockies reactivated LHP Jeff Francis from the 15 day DL and he was thrown back into the fire immediately as he took the bump for the Rockies. However, his return was a rough one, as the Padres got all [...]
Otto Porter continues to draw attention from NBA teams and draft observers as the big day of June 27 draws closer. He’s considered the best small forward in the draft and that’s a key position for young teams like the Charlotte Bobcats, who are just trying to break into the realm of respectability. The Bobcats [...]
Since head coach Bill O’ Brien has been on the Penn State University campus serving as the leader of its football program, many have sensed a change in the culture. Implementing a different style of offense and stitching players’ names on the back of the jerseys are just two examples of the improving status of [...]
The Creighton Bluejays will be joining the Big East Conference–or what’s left of it–in the 2013-14 college basketball season. Although there will still be some great teams in the conference, Doug McDermott could lead the Bluejays to a Big East title this season. Sure, Georgetown and Marquette should enter the season in the top 25, [...]
Sprinter English Gardner is coming off an exceptional junior year that included an indoor team championship for Oregon University and a second straight 100-meter dash outdoor title. After completing her events on Saturday, Gardner announced her decision to forgo her senior year and become a professional runner with Team USA. From her freshmen days at [...]
Sure, a few NFL teams located in the United States of America struggle to retain a stout fan base year after year. However, the idea that these less than appealing teams should bolt to London is asinine. NFL commissioner Roger Goodell has made countless efforts to move the game into England, but the rate of [...]
Since returning for the first time in over year, Chicago White Sox SP John Danks has been inconsistent, but that wasn’t the case for Danks on Saturday and fantasy baseball owners should be aware of his improvement. He had his best start of the year against the Oakland Athletics, allowing only four baserunners and one [...]
After falling out of favor at Bayern Munich last season, Mario Gomez has emerged as a shock target for Tottenham, according to reports. Bayern’s preferred option is the more agile Mario Mandzukic, who has nailed his position in the first team. Gomez specializes in out-and-out goal scoring, a constant predator in and around the penalty [...]
Chip Kelly loves to say, “there’s a science behind why we do that”. The definition of science is a ”systematic enterprise that builds and organizes knowledge in the form of testable explanations and predictions about the universe.” Yeah, let me try that again, so I can understand that. Let me put in the way that the [...]
So DeSean Jackson has fired “Jerry Maguire” for the second time. My bad, meant to say Drew Rosenhaus. As Philadelphia Eagles fans, this makes us very happy to see Rosenhause get kicked to the curb. DeSean is thinking long-term. He is thinking big. He is thinking Illuminati. Come on, we all know that Jay-Z is Illuminati. Reports came out quickly after DeSean let go of Rosenhaus that [...]
Oh, this news is just awesome. Matt Barrows of the Sacramento Bee wrote about how Nnamdi Asomugha is now at peace with the San Francisco 49ers. That’s just lovely. Who remembers playing Madden? My apologies — of course you remember. You’re likely still playing. Let me say that again: when I still had time to play, Nnamdi was always the first [...]
When I was growing up I was great at saying all the right things. “Mom, your hair looks awesome.” This of course was right after failing a test.”Pop, I need to go to the bathroom”. That always worked when I was supposed to help clean out the garage. When it comes to Michael Vick, he has [...]
There is nothing better than a hard-hitting defense to a Philadelphia Eagles fan. If you took a poll around the city to see if “Philadelphians” would rather have a hard-hitting defense or a high-flying offense, I can almost guarantee that 75 percent of the fans would say hard-hitting. It’s what we relate too; we just [...]
Is anyone else nervous about Jason Peters? I can’t be the only one, right? I mean, the dude tore his Achilles twice. I expect the offensive line to be better this year for the Philadelphia Eagles, considering that left guard Evan Mathis was the only starter to play every game, but the real question is what are the Eagles [...]
