Like many Baltimoreans, I was somewhat upset when Abe Pollin moved the Bullets to Landover. However the albatross known as the Civic Center was certainly a leading factor in the move. Can you imagine that the structure built in 1964, still serves our great Metropolis as the major indoor arena in the area. It was wrong in 1964 as it prevented the NHL from expanding into Baltimore and it has kept thousands of great events from ever coming to the … Read More »
Calling on all Marylanders to help me get a hold of Darvin Moon. Please email me his cell # as I would love to have him on my show. Darvin is a logger from Oakland, Maryland in Garrett County. The hand that catapulted him into the lead was when he had a set of 8’s vs Aces post flop.
If I were Dave Trembley I would do the following :
Demand as much pitching help as he can get. The future is now.
Put on the brakes on the team’s baserunning. The O’s have run themselves out of many games.
KEEP GEORGE SHERRILL ON THE TEAM. Do not let this guy go.
Trembley must not be a part of another August September swoon!!!
59 year old Tom Watson carded a 5 under par 65 to lead the Open Championship for most of the day but was eventually overtaken by Miquel Jiminez who shot 64. Watson won the tournament in Turnberry in 1977. Tiger missed fairway after fairway in pristine Scottish conditions and shot 71. Pat Coyner was on Terp Talk last night and predicted victory for Lee Westwood while I went with Jim Furyk.

From where I sat last year, it was inconceivable for a player to have a better year then Terrell Suggs. For his efforts, own owner with DEEP POCKETS rewarded him with a 6 year 63 million dollar contract. That number is staggering. 33 million is guaranteed. enough said!!! Colin Cowherd always says that if your big 4 are B+ or better, your team will always have a chance to be a Super Bowl contender. Let’s rate them:
Owner … Read More »

Iverson would hurt the Clippers not help. Here’s a team with a solid inside player in Marcus Camby who will get some much needed help from Blake Griffin. You have two outstanding young players in Al Thornton and Eric Gordon and a solid point guard in Baron Davis. Iverson is too selfish and if you noticed Denver took off after Iverson was traded away. The Pistons couldn’t wait to get him off the roster. Iverson would take time away from … Read More »
