I guess when you think you have a lot to say and are still building an online audience with a podcast, then the best way to share these thoughts would be to put those thoughts down on paper and let the reader make an assessment as to whether or not they would read a second “column”. So, that is what I aim to do with this inaugural “column”. Obviously, by [...]
I just wanted to beat the Post and Daily News before they roasted this kid !!!!! He is a stud. He knows what he signed up for when he wanted to play for the greatest team in sports. He will show everybody that he is the best player in the game. Hang in there Mr. Stanton…. you will fulfill all our expectations! Welcome to New York… Bring it home. You [...]
Wow! Not sure how much this kid is making (more than anyone in baseball), but from a MLB perspective, after Opening Day, seems to be worth every dime. Yankee fans, you should enjoy the next 6 1/2 on the couch! Watching GC, The Judge, and Senor Sanchez ….. should be something you should be excited about. Only 161 games to go to prove they are the Miillenium version of Murderers [...]
Have to hand it to Nick Foles for playing the game of his life on the biggest of stages. I have always though of him as talented, but he really stepped and delivered big time to a city that was starving for this championship! He went toe to toe with maybe the best QB of all-time and didn’t back down. Yes, he is not the QB of the future ( [...]
He was simply the face of the sport of golf. That says a lot for someone who may not have been the best of all time, but the combination of his talents and adorable persona made him simply the King of his sport. Arnold Palmer exemplified class like no other athlete has before. I had the good fortune of meeting Mr. Palmer in 1994 and it was just like I [...]
The Stanley Cup has returned to Pittsburgh under the leadership of Sid the Kid Crosby. All this guy does is win. 2 cups and an Olympic gold medal. A lot of people call him a complainer, but he is someone who has proven himself time and time again. And you sure have to give Mike Sullivan major credit for taking an already talented team and coaching them to the pinnacle [...]
We lost a champion. There is no question this man was unique in every sense of the word. And at a time when racial tensions were high, he spoke out about every topic that was important at the time. Without question he was one of the greatest boxers of all time. The combination of the two is what made this guy entertaining to watch and even more entertaining to listen to. Not [...]
We all want to see the fairytale ending to a storied career of a class act like Peyton Manning. But the fact that they are overmatched and will lose to a better team in Super Bowl 50 will not diminish Peyton’s legacy in the least. He has been as good as anyone who has ever played QB in this league. The fact he even came back from a potentially dangerous [...]
Kansas City heads to New York to take on the Mets. No, not the Yankees, like for so many meaningful October games in days past, but the Mets for the World Series title. It’s been a long time for both teams, but the Royals are just a better team. And they made it to within one game last year of the title, so don’t expect them to leave this one [...]
Wow, what a great way to win a major championship! Jason Day fought off a determined Jordan Spieth to win his first (but not last) major in record-setting fashion. It was just as emotional for the fans who watched it as it was for Jason, who was overcome with tears before even making the last putt. You can’t help but be excited for this young man who is considered one of [...]
