Odell Beckham, Jr. has been one of the few bright spots on a cloudy season for the Giants. When he was drafted, I felt the immediate need of a left tackle was missed when they selected him. But he sure is a talented player. He has made his presence felt since he got out of the hot tub for week three. The Giants still need that left tackle, but watching OBJ make [...]
3 World Series titles in 5 years…..quite impressive. The Giants are a team with relatively unknown players, but they pulled it off and won yet another title over Kansas City. Although the Royals were very hot early in the playoffs, they just weren’t good enough to overcome San Francisco and the incredible pitching performance by Madison Bumgarner. What an unbelievable display of dominance by one of the rising stars of [...]
Coward. Violent. No other way to describe a man who would do something like that to a woman. And he thought that he would get away with this and just go on and make millions of dollars playing a game. Well Ray, you didn’t. Not only are you done as a football player, but if there is any justice in this crazy society of ours, you will be prosecuted. This [...]
Is there any wonder the Milwaukee Bucks have been at the bottom of the league for years now? And then they give away 2 draft picks (usually the way to rebuild a crumbling franchise) to secure the rights to hire Jason Kidd? Huh? What in the world has this guy done to be a “must have” for this team? I must be missing something. Kidd was barely over .500 with [...]
Tony Gwynn passed away at 54 years old. This is a loss for all of sports, not just baseball. He was as classy a man as the sport ever produced. Not to mention he was also one of the greatest hitters of our generation. It was a shame that he never got a World Series ring, but he still exhibited sportsmanship every time he stepped on the field. And he [...]
He is known in hockey circles as “The King”. But in order to earn such praise, you have to do something worthy for it. Henrik is almost there, but he has to seal the deal. And what would do that is to win the Stanley Cup, the hardest championship to win in sports. Until then, he is just a prince. Yes, one of the best goalies in the game, but that [...]
Bubba Watson won his second Masters Championship on Sunday in a very impressive manner. Jordan Spieth was a young contender (20 years old!) and was really Bubba’s only serious competition throughout the final round. But the final round at Augusta National is relentless and notorious for devouring young players and Watson’s experience was a major factor in his prevailing. Jordan proved that he belonged there and we can count him on being a [...]
The UConn Huskies are again champions of the college basketball world!!!!! They have had teams in the past who were expected to win it all, but not these guys. And yet they did. Clearly Shabazz Napier carried this team on his back. The way Ray Allen did in the past for the Huskies and Kemba Walker did as well. This was an improbable run and they beat outstanding teams to [...]
Wisconsin vs. Kentucky and Florida vs. UConn. And then there were four……… Each one of these teams has a legitimate chance to bring home the title on Monday in Arlington, TX. None of these teams would be considered “Cinderella” as they are all very talented and with the exception of Wisconsin, have been here before. But on paper, still going to stay with Florida prevailing as they face Kentucky Monday night to win [...]
