Ben Roethlisberger: Why What Really Happened in Milledgeville Might Never Be Known

While some websites are “claiming” Ben Roethlisberger talked to police about having sexual contact with the 20-year old college student, there is another, much more important matter at hand which was revealed in the investigation. And it might be the reason there is so much confusion surrounding the events of the evening in question. It turns out that two off-duty policemen attended [read more...]

If Ben Roethlisberger or Carl Edwards Looked Like Brittney Griner…

Brittany Griner grabs a rebound over Jordan Barncastle. Earlier his season I openly wondered two things about NCAA basketball: 1) Why the game officials were allowing so much physical play to occur and 2) Musing that, because of the referees refusal to put an end to the constant banging and bumping, it was a miracle there were no major fights in [read more...]

Notes: Jake Delhomme Finally Done with Carolina; Finley Signed by Boston; Peppers, Taylor to Bears? Cromartie Now with Revis

Jake Delhomme, who began his career as an NFL starting quarterback by leading the Carolina Panthers to the Super Bowl, was released Thursday by the Carolina Panthers. Delhomme, 35, who quarterbacked the Panthers to a Super Bowl berth and two NFC Championship Games, fell off precipitously from his previous level of play in 2009. His demise began with a disastrous six-turnover performance [read more...]

*Breaking* Chicago Bears Defensive End Gaines Adams Dies

Chicago Bears defensive end, Gaines Adams, 26, died Sunday morning. The former Clemson star was the 4th draft pick of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in 2007 and was traded to the Bears this season. Adams was taken to the Emergency Room at Self Regional in Greenwood, County Coroner James T. Coursey said. In 15 games, five games with Tampa Bay and 10 [read more...]

Sunday Morning NFL Fare: Peyton Manning, the Best QB Ever? Not Even close

John Unitas, not Peyton Manning was the Colts best QB ever - and perhaps the greatest in NFL history. Is Indianapolis Colts quarterback Peyton Manning the greatest quarterback of all time? Not even close. If you think there are “Tom Brady” rules about hitting QBs in the knees, think about the overall rules created for offenses that benefit someone like Manning. Marshall Faulk, [read more...]

NFL Week 11: Patriots Revenge, the Oakland Fly Trap Eats Again, and More…

Jay Cutler contemplates the latest way he found to lose a game for the Chicago Bears. Oakland (3-7) 20, Cincinnati (7-3) 17. Sunday showed the Bengals immaturity. After jumping out to a quick 14-0 lead, too many Bengals players took the reset of the game off thinking the Raiders would pack it in; some appeared mot to show up at all [read more...]

NFL Short Notes: On the Josh Cribbs Hit; Dick Jauron Fired; Rex Breaks Down

Josh Cribbs winces in pain on a stretcher after being hit by Baltimore's Dwan Edwards. I have, over time, mentioned that the Baltimore Ravens is perhaps the dirtiest team in the NFL, particularly on the defensive side of the ball (feel free to search the site for prior mentions). Monday night was just another example of the collective maliciousness with which [read more...]

A Sunday Night Heist in Indianapolis

The end of the play in question. “And the Peyton’s stayed perfect!” That was an ESPN Sportscenter anchor’s attempt at facetiousness. The sad part is, the anchor is right on point with his assessment of the Indianapolis Colts, their place, and their their perception within in the National Football League. And, of course the officiating crews do their part in keeping [read more...]

NBA Preview, Fantasy League-Style

Tonight is the opening night for the 2009-2010 NBA season. Rather than write forever, going through a bunch of predictions, I’m going to do something much, much different. This is my first season playing in an NBA fantasy basketball league, so I’m going to give you my picks and let you pick them apart – or praise me for being [read more...]
