Last Thursday night, I had the pleasure of being at the Sports Boosters/ Press Box Night with Eric DeCosta, director of player personnel of the Ravens. To the best of my memory here is tale of the drafting of Joe Flacco.
One of the Ravens area scouts called Eric and told him to take a much closer look at Flacco, ie this scout believed Flacco was far superior then most people thought. DeCosta first watched Flacco take apart the Navy … Read More »
One of the centers, the Terrapins have been recruiting, 6’9″ Damontre Harris has committed to be a Gamecock according to terrapintimes.com. This was his supposed preference all along , so we wish him good fortune. Many more possibilities exist including the just visited Alex Kirk from New Mexico.
Despite a dismal team start, at least one Terp leads the nation in a major statistical category. Torrey Smith has averaged 249 all purpose yards a game and is #1 in the NCAA.
Some observations on Sunday’s great victory:
There are obviously some secondary problems on this team or Phil Rivers just was incredible.
Hauschka’s kickoffs are superb.
Is it me or is Willis outplaying Ray Rice?
How in the world could Mark Clayton drop that pass in the 4th quarter.
On McGahee’s 2nd TD run Jared Gaither flattened his man like a pancake.
Look out for the Jets–Rex Ryan has really motivated that team.
Flacco was great—-again!!!

Chris Turner was 19-30 for 288 yds and 2 TDs–again playing well
2 fumbles in the 1st quarter led to 2 TDs and was really the reason the Terps lost
4th and 3 with 1 minute left. Here’s my take. If you kick the FG and its good, … Read More »

I haven’t purchased a pay-per-view in years but this fight seemed intriquing. When Mayweather (with Triple H by his side) and Marquez stood face to face for ring instructions, it was clear why “Money ” was so confident. Mayweather seemed to be so physically dominant it was a joke. When Marquez landed early in the fight Floyd was barely fazed. By 2 judges’ accounts , Mayweather won every round. Marquez was game and brave but when you fight someone stronger, … Read More »
