I’ve been a fan of the J-E-T-S JETS JETS JETS for as long as I’ve watched football. When I was just a little boy, my Dad would take my sisters and me to games at Shea Stadium, where it was always cold and the Jets always lost. When we weren’t freezing our butts off, we [...]

When people think of sports agents, what typically comes to mind is a slick, fast-talking, money-grabbing media-hog who loves to hear the sound of his own voice. While that impression may be reality with many of them, it’s not the case with Leigh Steinberg, arguably the greatest sports agent in the business.

If that caller gets more games right than I do, they win a $15 certificate to La Cabana on 6725 White Lane, home of [...]
It’s Wednesday, so it must be time for the Rant Off. Marc won it again last week, but I have a surprise for him this week.

It’s hard to steal the spotlight from Week 1 in the NFL in general, considering football is king in this country. It’s even harder when there’s a fantastic finish like the Broncos miracle against the Bengals. It’s harder still when marquee players like Donovan McNabb and Brian Urlacher are injured.
