The fashion in which this game was won makes … Read More »
Three replays in the final 2 minutes of the 1at half of Sunday’s Ravens game. It was becoming insufferable. Now the NFL is beginning to realize that there are offshoots of replay that have not been dealt with. For example in the Steelers Dolphins game Sunday, after the ref blew the call that #7 had scored the TD , no one bothered to watch who recovered the fumble. Thus Miami had victory stolen from them. Result: new rule on continuation … Read More »
It is difficult to understand how Cain Velasquez was able to thoroughly defeat Brock Lesnar who seems twice his size. The Undertaker, present at the match was also shocked and immediately challenged Lesnar to a match at Wrestlemania. It won’t happen however because Lesnar is under full contract to the UFC. Interesting story–I think.
It was Judgment Day for Billy Cundiff yesterday in the overtime. And unlike Hauschka last year, Billy passed with flying colors. I like his magic kick off shoe, he switches to after every FG or PAT.
Todd Heap seems to be ko’d every game.
I had originally said that Ed Reed should be held out of the game yesterday and not used until the by week was over. Without Ed Reed we lose yesterday.
There will be no more … Read More »

This is one time I am glad I was wrong. The Rangers showed why the Yankees virtually forfeited 1st place and avoid Texas in the first round. The Bronx Bombers were simply no match for the Rangers. Most important Cliff Lee will be fully rested for game 1 of the World Series. Josh Hamilton ended all arguments–he is clearly the best hitter in baseball. It was certainly poetic justic that Arod took a called strike 3 to end the game. … Read More »
