Last week at this time, there was disappointment, disbelief, and an identity crisis luring in New England. The Patriots were coming off a 41-14 romp courtesy of the Kansas City Chiefs. This all but demoralized the one time dominant franchise out the AFC East. And the questions instantly came rolling in: Is this the end […]
Move over Obama, there’s a new commander in chief in our nation’s capitol. He’s 6’3, 214 pounds, and goes by the name of Kirk Cousins. He’s the interim starting quarterback for the Washington Redskins and he’s pretty darn good. In what may be the most impressive loss ever (excuse the oxymoron) for a quarterback, Cousins […]
If you can’t take the heat, than get off of Qualcomm Field. The Seattle Seahawks learned that the hard way in a disappointing 30-21 road loss against an impressive Chargers team. The legion of boom turned into the legion of “doom” as the Seahawks secondary surrendered three touchdowns; all to Antonio Gates. In the blistering […]
In Sunday’s season opener, Cowboys quarterback Tony Romo looked more rustier than a Titanic artifact, more confused than Donald Sterling at an NAACP meeting, and lacked more rhythm than Napoleon Dynamite.

Her name is Mo’ne Davis, she’s a pitcher for the Little League Taney Dragons, and she’s the most fascinating person in sports right now. She single handily changed the infamous phrase “you throw like […]
Why does the NFL offseason seem so long? Well that’s probably because it has, indeed, the longest offseason of the four major sports. Every year around mid August the anticipation builds and the predictions unfold, as we anxiously prepare for the upcoming season. Fans are treated to public practices, coaches are trimming their rosters, and […]
The 2014 MLB season is officially underway and so are the Dodgers hopes of reaching the World Series. Already leading their division (NL West), Dodgers have the star power, coaching power, and fan power to go all the way this year. With the bat of Adrian Gonzalez, the left arm of Clayton Kershaw, the wisdom […]
“Now entering for the New Jersey Nets #46, Jason Collins.” With that introduction, history was made Sunday night at Staples Center. The first openly gay NBA player took the floor to a rousing reception in the city that raised him. The NBA would never be the same, and professional sports would be forever changed. The Jason […]
WITNESSING HISTORY: PEYTON MANNING Some people can say they were at Atlanta Stadium the night Hank Aaron hit number 715. Some can say they were at Hershey Sports Arena to witness Wilt Chamberlain score 100 points. Others can say they crowded into Oriole Park at Camden Yards to see Cal Ripken play in his 2,131st […]
