I’ve decided to bring back a weekly post this season, after putting it on hold last season. Okay let’s be real, I put the entire blog on hold for the last year or so. But I’m back with new energy, and so is the “Games of the Week”. Each week I will pick one game […]

If you’re anything like me, congratulations. But you’re also sick to death of all of the preseason predictions for divisional winners, conference winners and even Super Bowl winners. They began pouring in just after last February’s Super Bowl, and they haven’t stopped since. The idea that anyone, with any degree of credibility and accuracy, can […]

Wow, what an off-season. I can’t remember the last time I’d seen so many players taken out of service before the season even started. And I’m only talking about the arrests and suspensions! Add in all of the trades and injuries, and you’d be hard pressed to find any team with the same starting lineup […]

Considering that I’ve only made one post over the last 2 ½ months, you would have thought I’d slipped into hibernation mode. After all of the weird, stupid or just plain unbearable things that have gone on in that time, I kind of wished I’d had. Unfortunately, I’ve had to endure the same ridiculous stories […]

I spend a good amount of my free time listening to various radio broadcasts. Some are news and political shows and some are sports related. Although they are interesting for the most part, there are times when I simply must turn the dial. Why would I do something like that? Because the host (or team […]

I know what you’re thinking. “This is a sports blog, not a political editorial blog. What is he doing writing about the bombing in Boston?” Normally I would agree with you one hundred percent. I have made it a rule to keep politics out of this web site. This is, after all, all about sports. […]

After nailing the Super Bowl, I decided to take a couple of weeks off from prognosticating, prophesizing and a lot of other really big words that simply mean “giving my opinion to whoever will listen”!! As I was enjoying my self-induced exile, I couldn’t help but listen to the experts bringing up the same old […]

This week, the title should actually include the entire week, rather than just the weekend. Read on to find out why. 1) It’s not safe to be in the AP top ten this season! Every week we see at least one or two top ten teams get knocked off their perches, and this week was […]

I’m sure you’re wondering why I took so long to write something about the newly-crowned Stanley Cup champions, the Los Angeles Kings. After all, I had them favored to win the series over the New Jersey Devils going into the final series. What a great opportunity to do some gloating! There are a couple of […]

I was having a great holiday weekend. It was early morning on the second day of a three day weekend. The temperature was still comfortable (later in the day it would break 100 – AGAIN). I poured myself a cup of java and was ready to get comfortable in the first phase of a relaxing […]
