The Brady Factor

It seems like forever since a game has been played.  In reality, it’s been less than two weeks.  But when there’s just one game left to decide the season, the wait is interminable.  Thankfully, Super Bowl Sunday is just around the corner.  At last, the Patriots and Giants will have to shut up and put [...]

Twins Accept, Brady Declines, Plaxico Predicts

The Minnesota Twins decided Media Day shouldn’t be limited to the Super Bowl and made a big splash, giving in to Johan Santana’s wishes and dealing him, accepting a four-player package from the NY Mets.  While the Mets offered a number of quality prospects, I have to believe the Twins also wanted to get him out of the AL and [...]

No Taming Tiger

Tiger Woods wrote on his website earlier this year that a grand slam was easily within reason. Tiger Woods played his first tournament of the year in San Diego over the weekend and demolished and demoralized the field, winning by 8 strokes. Tiger Woods tied Arnold Palmer for 4th on the all-time pga tour victories [...]

Are the Patriots Dirty?

As the playoffs have rolled along, talk of the Patriots cheating from the sidelines has subsided for the most part, but talk about their play on the field has picked up, and it’s not about how well the team is performing.  It’s about their conduct, and whether it crosses over from physical to dirty. The [...]

Trade LT

As I’ve discussed on the show the past few days, I think the Chargers should re-sign Michael Turner and look to deal LaDainian Tomlinson.  It’s an idea I thought about before the AFC Championship Game, but after what went on Sunday, I feel more strongly about it. Yes, LT is a phenomenal running back, the [...]

The Sequel

It’s no shocker the Pats are playing for another title.  Perhaps a bit surprising is how much they struggled against the Chargers.  Too bad for San Diego they kept kicking field goals instead of scoring touchdowns in the first half when they had a chance to take control against a slow starting Tom Brady.  And too [...]

Brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

If you’re headed to an NFL Championship Game this weekend, start piling on the layers of clothing now.  In Foxborough, the forecast is a high of 20 degrees, a low of 7, and winds up to 18 mph.  In Green Bay, it will be colder… a high of 6, a low of 0, with snow flurries. The [...]

If I Told You

If I Told You… The Colts would score on their first possession. The Chargers would be intercepted on their first possession. LT would get hurt early in the 2nd quarter and not return. Philip Rivers would get hurt on the final play of the 3rd quarter and not return. Peyton Manning would throw for over [...]
