Host–Bruce Posner Guests Dave Cottle, Freddy from Boca

This is an old bugaboo of mine. But today with the importance of this game, I believe we must get on top. Flacco needs the confidence and with the secondary so banged up Big Ben is going to score even with his patchwork receiver corps.
Some interesting issues:
Today we will see what kind of kicker Billy Cundiff is.
If #86 doesn’t play for Pitt, they have no chance.
Hoping for Chris Carr to score today on a punt return. … Read More »
Twas not a great day for the ACC as Pitt defeated Carolina 19-17 and USC bested BC 24-13 in the Emerald Bowl in San Fran.
I was shocked to hear Urban Meyer resigned due to health reasons. Arguably Florida has one of top 2 or 3 football programs in the country. My prediction for his replacement—Jon Gruden.
The Terps opponent today is Florida Atlantic University, located in Boca Raton, Fl. F.A.U. is 5-6 this year, 1-1 in the Sun Belt after going 6-26 last season. The Owls are led in scoring by 5’6″ freshman guard Raymond Taylor averaging 17.6 a game, 6’2″ freshman guard Gregg Gantt at 13.5 pts a game and 6’3″ soph guard Shavar Richardson chipping in 9.9 a game. 6’8″ 235lb. jr. forward Brett Royster delivers 9.4 pts and 6.5 rebounds a game and … Read More »
Competitive Balance is a joke, but the way things are, will never change. So you have to adapt. The O’s are in NO way a poor team. We are in the 5th largest market in the USA.

Doesn’t anyone remember when the O’s had the highest payroll in baseball just 12 years ago? … Read More »
The Terrapins play FAU, coached by Mike Jarvis, at 2PM on Sunday afternoon. Jarvis was the coach of the St John’s team that defeated Steve Francis and the Terps in the NCAAs. This will be the one of 3 games remaining before the start of the ACC season.
Some comments on the responses from Bob on facebook:
Let’s get it straight , I still love and support the Orioles and still purchase my season tickets unlike many who have dropped theirs. Bob, I know you still must have your tickets as well.
Patience–how many years have we lived with a team way below .500. When was the last significant game we played in September–after August 15?
The real problem I have is the structure of MLB that allows … Read More »
I can’t wait to watch this one. What a letdown for Pete Carroll and the USC Trojans—playing in a baseball park against Boston College. That being said I wish it was the Terps.
Gaither’s status is uncertain
Ed Reed is doubtful.
Ladarius Webb is out.
Hines Ward is questionalable.
Big Ben and his concussion.
Let’s get it on !!!!!!
What else can happen to this franchise. Why in the world would this happen? Gilbert could be facing some sort of suspension after the NBA completes its investigation. Gilbert’s response was after the birth of his daughter, he didn’t want the firearms in his house. We shall see what unfolds.
