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 – [...]
At the quarter mark, the San Francisco 49ers are 3-1, relatively healthy, and still considered championship contenders. Minor road bumps; such as the loss to the Minnesota Vikings, have slightly slowed down the 49ers but pretenders they are not. After a swift butt kicking by the Vikings in Week 3, the 49ers showed [...]
The last time the Buffalo Bills and San Francisco 49ers faced-off was in Buffalo during the 2008-2009 regular season. The 49ers won 10-3. Four years later, we have the same iconic colors and heritage but different players. Both teams have come a long way since 2008. The 49ers are now considered one of [...]
The San Francisco 49ers will attempt to reclaim their top spot in the NFC West when they host the Buffalo Bills this Sunday. The Bills? Well, they just want to stay in the AFC East hunt with the New England Patriots and New York Jets. This game will be a great test for both [...]
The San Francisco 49ers (3-1) and Buffalo Bills (2-2) face off in this classic outer conference battle. In the NFC West, the San Francisco 49ers will try to take advantage of the Arizona Cardinals loss to the St. Louis Rams. Before the loss, the Cardinals were 4-0. With the Bills, they are in [...]
The 3-1 San Francisco 49ers will host the 2-2 Buffalo Bills in Candlestick Park, in what will be one of the more exciting matchups of the week. There are several storylines to follow, including a potential quarterback controversy. If you thought I was talking about the Bills, think again. Ryan Fitzpatrick has played solid [...]
The San Francisco 49ers defeated the New York Jets 34-0, in what has turned out to be Rex Ryan’s worst game since joining the Jets in 2009. As a head coach of the Jets, Ryan has never suffered a shutout this big in his four years with the team. The last shutout loss was a [...]
If you aren’t a fan of the option attack, then this game isn’t for you. We should be talking about Alex Smith and Mark Sanchez, but instead it’s the backup quarterbacks that are in the line of focus. Both Tim Tebow and Colin Kaepernick have made appearances in what has turned into a low [...]
Are the San Francisco 49ers the best team in the NFC West? Some would still say so, but how many could ask this question with a straight face before the start of the 2012 season? While the 49ers are still considered the favorites in the division, the gap in the NFC West is closing [...]
Can the New York Jets upset the San Francisco 49ers this Sunday without their best player in Darelle Revis? Sure, but it will be tough. The Jets will have a tough time against an angry 49ers team that just came from a Week 3 loss to the Minnesota Vikings. But, the Jets should be [...]
When the San Francisco 49ers face the New York Jets in MetLife stadium this Sunday, what will we see? For the Jets, you can expect subpar offense, and possibly a middling defense, especially after the devastating news of Darrelle Revis’s season ending injury. So when I ask what to expect, it is in reference [...]
