I have been a sports fanatic ever since I watched Joe Carter win the 1993 World Series. That moment also made me want to be a sports journalist. I have been a sports broadcaster for eight years and now I want to supplement that by writing about sports.
It’s hard to imagine any scenario in which Tim Tebow is not the starting quarterback in Denver next season. He led the Broncos into the second round of the AFC Playoffs and Team President John Elway finally said Tebow was his guy, sort of. With Peyton Manning no longer in Indianapolis, however, … [Read more...]
Most All-Star Games have become jokes. The NHL and NFL games don’t feature any hitting which is half the appeal of those two sports and Major League Baseball snubs deserving players in favor of middle relievers from teams already out of the playoff race in the interest of “fairness”. The one … [Read more...]
It is almost laughable that a sport can find a way to thrive after many of their stars were found to be cheaters and have the longest period of labor peace in professional sports, but cannot find a way to make one of their most historic franchises relevant again. The Oakland A’s franchise has … [Read more...]
The Los Angeles Clippers are like one of the girls you went to school with. When you were younger, you never paid attention to her. Why would you have?

Despite being given the Cy Young Award, which is the pitchers' MVP, Justin Verlander has been awarded the AL MVP. Even though … [Read more...]
Tim Tebow and the Denver Broncos continue to laugh in the face of conventional wisdom as they have improved to 4-1 this season with Tebow as the starting quarterback and running an option-based offense. It has gotten them back into the AFC West race and has given themselves a realistic shot of … [Read more...]
The Colorado Rockies go through 3rd baseman like Justin Timberlake goes through the Maxim Hot 100. Since Vinny Castilla went to Tampa Bay in 1999, the Rockies have had 26 different guys man the hot corner at Coors Field (including Castilla who had two more stints with the team in ’04 and ‘06). … [Read more...]
In the interest of full disclosure, I grew up a Notre Dame fan. For my seventh birthday I got a Fightin’ Irish sweatshirt and from then on I loved them. Rudy is one of my favorite movies and I had a man-crush on Brady Quinn that would make Mike Golic say I was obsessed. Now that I write about and … [Read more...]
