EXCERPT: It is today the fourth of March in the year 2008 that Bret Favre has announced his retirement from American Football, the Green Bay Packers, and from the National Football League. It appears that an era has closed with greats such as Joe Montana, Dan Marino, and Brett Favre leaving the NFL Scene while a new generation of players appears to be taking over. It cannot be denied that Bret Favre was synonymous with the Green Bay Packers. Bret Favre had a career of one Super Bowl title,...

EXCERPT: Shaq to the Sun or the Center of Disappointment!
After looking at the trade for Shaquille O'Neal is it worth it? Do the Suns want to slow their team down from light speed to a crawl? Here are some things to think about.

During his career he This season he averaged:

EXCERPT: Every year I post here about the Super Bowl. This year it's all happening in our back yard.
There are people renting out their houses and gearing up their businesses for the game. I for some reason can't figure out. How do people rent their home to strangers? In your home if you are like me over the years you collected many things that are personal or have meaning to your family. What price do you put on opening your life to a stranger who could literally trash all you have...

EXCERPT: I wrote this article 12/17/07
Romo to be or not to be
I can’t seem to figure out if this guy is real or lucky. I will just use my 50/50 rule I guess. Sometimes he is good and the rest of the time horrible. I don’t remember ever seeing a QB that throws more INTs or fumbles the ball as much as this guy. The experts say a great QB has a built in clock and instinct to get rid of the ball. Dallas will never be able to win a super bowl until Romo gets is clocked fixed. I...

EXCERPT: I was watching ESPN today, it looks like it's going to be icy in New England today.  I don't think it means much though, I still think the Patriots will stomp the jets 56 to nothing (well, maybe a mercy touchdown at the end of the game or something).
Anyway, if it gets too bad, we all know what happened in that Pittsburgh - Miami game.  I don't think the Patriots will have the same problems though as they are a way better team.
Anyway, I probably won't...

EXCERPT: Arizona Cardinals BAD Coaching
Your 11 games into the season and you have a team with talent and should have a record of at least 7 and 4. Instead their record is 5 and 6. Below are some things that can be fixed with a simple kick in the ass. Make sure your QB knows how much time is left on the clock. Grounding the ball is legal and gives you time to think about your next couple of plays. (Answer) Have your QB spend 10 minutes a day watching a clock counting down from 2 minutes....

EXCERPT: Is it just me, or does this home run record make you feel empty too?
I was not watching the game last night when Barry Bonds hit the shot that broke the record, and when I did hear about it, I really felt bad for Hank Aaron!  I know all of the national sports press is questioning this the same way that I am.  I am a fan of Major League Baseball (mostly a Cub fan so you know that I can endure pain, but I have a great respect for history of the game and the people who really...

EXCERPT: I know it is just a stupid N.B.A. basketball series, but I really feel like I got ripped off (of my time).   I like to watch Steve Nash go out there and night after night make all these faster, stronger, giants look like morons. But this time I think the corporate basketball GOD (David Stern), really blew it! This was an ageing San Antonio team that was allowed to successfully substituted dirty play for athletic basketball ability! Kinda like the Pistons of the...
