It’s been 77 years since a Brit has won the men’s championship at Wimbledon in their own backyard. Until today. Andy Murray shocked Novak Djokovic to win the title. The perennial runner up to Roger, Rafael and Novak finally overcame the second place stigma and surprisingly beat the number one player in the world. With Federer getting long in tennis years and Nadal battling injuries, this may not be the [...]
A golden opportunity for the Yankees to pick up a local prospect goes by the boards. Rob Kaminsky, a pitcher from St. Joseph Regional H.S. in Montvale, NJ will instead take his talents to St. Louis, as the Cards picked him 2 spots after the Yankees passed on him. Oh, did I mention that virtually nobody could hit his 90-plus mph fastball or Dwight Gooden like curve for 3 years? [...]
Oh, the power the “Fat Man” has over Woody Johnson! Sexy Rexy keeps his job and they trade the best player on the team (actually the best cornerback in the league). Incredible!!!!! Why, because they don’t want to pay him? Mr. Johnson, how about asking the coach who is ripping you off to restructure HIS contract to keep a player who actually puts aside the circus show his coach has created [...]
Well, one would have to think Tiger knew what he was doing when he took the illegal drop. I’m not one of the top players in the world and I know that! The right thing to do would have been to disqualify HIMSELF for a terrible lapse in judgment. This is the most prestigious golfing event in the world. The rules committee wasn’t going to do it, so he should [...]
Face it Yankee fans, if this guy misses Opening Day on 4-1-13, he must not be recovering from that bad break he suffered in the post season. This isn’t a guy who will settle to be a mediocre ballplayer. He has a Hall of Fame work ethic and will settle for nothing less. I hope I am wrong, but the way he has been hobbling around, it doesn’t look good. [...]
The NFL recently elected a new class to the Hall of Fame. Warren Sapp was elected to the HoF! Yes, you read this right. The same Hall that has Roger Staubach, Merlin Olsen, Dick Butkus, Johnny U, Reggie White, Jack Butler (pictured)etc. These are guys that played every week for years and were great while they were doing it! How many “great years” did this guy have? Certainly not enough [...]
I must admit that I was totally oblivious to the fact that the Tour De France wins piled up by Lance were bogus. I, like everybody else , thought this was nothing short of incredible. As a matter of fact, I had made statements to the fact that he may be the greatest American athelete of my generation, if not all-time. Shame on me. Makes you wonder what is real [...]
