When was the last time we reached the conference championship round of the playoffs and you found yourself able to make legitimate arguments for all four of the remaining teams to win the Super Bowl? It doesn’t happen often, but it has most certainly happened this year. Clearly, we will be watching the four best […]

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 […]

This year’s championship game will be featuring two of the best quarterbacks in the league squaring off against each other, with a trip to the Super Bowl on the line. It should be a great game. Oh yeah, Brady and Manning will face off again in the other conference’s final. Yawn!! That’s right folks, the […]

I know that, for true football nuts, the time between the Super Bowl and the first game of the regular season moves at an excruciatingly slow pace. By now you know that I am a lifetime card carrying member of this fraternity. One of the greatest thrills of the past eight weeks was the day […]

I don’t know about you, but in my humble opinion, the worst time of the year for sports fans is the two weeks between the Conference Finals and the Super Bowl. Why, you may ask? Excellent question. Thanks for asking! The reason is we have to endure thirteen days of every reporter in the world, […]

Like most sports nuts (not just fans, but nuts), this is my favorite time of the year. College basketball is in full swing, the NHL is just past the halfway point and that other league (the NBA?) is right behind them. But most importantly, we’re down to the final four in the NFL. Yet, more […]

Predicting the winner of the Super Bowl is not an easy task. Most people would back me up on that. You can analyze the teams to death and still not come up with the right conclusion. Personally, I quit placing any kind of wagers on the big game more than two decades ago because I […]

First of all, let’s acknowledge that last week’s divisional round lived up to expectations. It was full of exciting, hard-hitting football with lots of big plays. Okay, so I only picked two out of four games correctly. I’m okay with that. The two games I missed were both decided on the final play of the […]

Back in February I told you several key things about the whole Manning story that had to be considered (see “PEYTON MANNING — WILL HE PLAY AGAIN?”, 2/19/12). I warned you to not pay too much attention to the experts, since they would change their storylines every day and try to convince you that this […]

Well, here we are on March 8th, one day after D-day for all of the Colts fans. I’ve heard from so many people that just can’t believe that Indianapolis would release Peyton Manning, after all that he’s meant to this franchise over the last fourteen seasons. My answer to them is simple. WHY DIDN’T YOU […]
