2013 NFL Draft A Bust For Quarterbacks

April 28, 2013 by Guest Contributor · 1 Comment

If you're a college quarterback entering the 2013 NFL Draft, this is not your year. For fans of the quarterback position, this is possibly the worst NFL draft in recent memory.  No superstars. No compelling stories. If anything,  this current crop of NFL quarterback wannabe's are finding themselves struggling to find a job like many of their … [Read More...]

The Big Red Collapse

October 14, 2012 by John Shea · Leave a Comment

The Cincinnati Reds have completed a historic cataclysm, becoming the first National League team in the 17-year history of the LDS to relinquish a 2-0 series lead. Cincinnati dominated the Giants in the first 2 games of the series, outscoring San Francisco by a combined total of 14-2 on the road. After a 9-0 drumming in Game 2, it appeared as … [Read More...]

UFC 157 Reactions

February 25, 2013 by Chris Canavan · Leave a Comment

The UFC is always a great show and this weekend's bouts were a good example of that.  There were some good fights scheduled to precede the main event which would make history.  For the first time in UFC history women would be fighting in the octagon. The first fight of note was Mcgee vs Neer.  Neer appear to be the most calm before the … [Read More...]

The Madness Begins

March 21, 2013 by Chris Canavan · Leave a Comment

March is almost over and the excitement is just beginning.  The first game has just ended with Michigan State advancing to the weekend and 31 more games still need to be decided by tomorrow night.  Every game means something and every team believes they can make a run. It's the best tournament in any sport. In the first round I don't see there … [Read More...]

Nuggets Early Exit

May 3, 2013 by Chris Canavan · Leave a Comment

Last night I was watching the Denver Nuggets play game 6 against the Golden State Warriors with my boy Von Miller of the Denver Broncos. When I say I watched it with Von Miller I mean that we were in the same restaurant/ bar enjoying the game and in no way did he acknowledge my existence. The game was entertaining throughout with big time … [Read More...]

Full Face Masks for all Hockey Players?

March 8, 2013 by Chris Canavan · 1 Comment

I was watching CBSsport the other night after the Avalanche blew an opportunity to take down the Blackhawks.  During the post game highlight show I saw something that made me cringe and look away from the TV.  Marc Staal of the New York Rangers took a puck off of his face, right above his eye.  He falls to the ground and was kicking and … [Read More...]

Today was the running of the Boston Marathon which is just one of the events that great people of Massachusetts and New England use to help celebrate a holiday that most of the country doesn't pay any attention too.  The holiday is Patriots Day and it is celebrated by the people of Massachusetts because of their history in the American fight for … [Read More...]

Broncos Need More Pieces

By Chris Canavan Leave a Comment

I have taken a look at the Denver Broncos offseason transactions and while the team is better now than when they ended the season they still have 3 areas that need to be addressed in order to be Super Bowl contenders.  The defense has addressed the secondary and now they … [Read More...]

Jets Need to Make More Moves

By Chris Canavan Leave a Comment

At this very moment the Jets are around $6 million under the salary cap.  Based on the moves that they have made they need to rebuild their football team and they just don't have the money to do so.  So, what steps need to be taken to accomplish their rebuild?  Darrelle … [Read More...]

May Taking Shots at Irish’s Te’o

By Chris Canavan Leave a Comment

Mark May is one of the most infuriating analysts on the planet.  His elitist attitude and smug looks when someone disagrees with him are enough to make me sick.  The worst part of May's act is his inability to hide his disdain for the Fighting Irish of Notre Dame. In … [Read More...]

Boston Gets What They Deserve

Today the Boston Red Sox fired manager Bobbie Valentine after 1 season.  Granted it was a terrible season, but what can you expect after just 1 season.  He had to deal with a record number injuries, mentally fragile … [Read More...]
