Stick a fork in Mr Ovechkin and his running mates. What a tremendous letdown. How can this team not be up for the playoffs. Well you can’t blame this one on Goalie Jose Theodore. Perhaps the benching of the beleaguered destroyed the enthusiasm today of the team and resulted in another failed effort.Last chance for redemption comes Monday for the Caps.
From time to time, I will pick some games for my blog followers. Proceed with caution!!!!
Lakers 107 Utah 96 Bynum is back, Lakers Vegas favorite to win it all.
Magic 99 76ers 92 No match for Dwight Howard who will totally dominate this series
Heat 101 Atlanta 95 … Read More »
Tonight is a Lance free zone for Terp Talk. I have been told by 20 or so “experts” that Lance and Maryland will never happen so today I will leave it at that. All is quiet on the Terrell Vinson front as well. That leads us to DeShawn Painter who recently withdrew his commitment to Florida. It seems like Billy Donovan’s reign at the top of the NCAA coaching world is collapsing. Memphis deserter, John Calipari will soon follow after he … Read More »
The Terrapins are at a crossroads today. After 2 brutal losses to Hopkins and UVA, the Terps need 3 more wins to safely place themselves in the NCAA tournament. A few weeks ago this might have looked like a soft game, but not anymore. Two weeks ago #1Princeton needed Overtime to defeat the Quakers and last week Penn defeated #11 Brown. The Terps will probably be without Will Yeatman, recovering from an ankle injury.Most likely Jason Carter will be in … Read More »
When the Washington Post nicknames the Caps goalie “Three-or-more”, I believe the beleaguered goalie is doomed for failure. Furthermore when the team fails to defend its netminder against a punk like Sean Avery, the team becomes doomed for defeat. A first round elimination would devastate this franchise. Yet when Theodore needs support, he is forced to dodge arrows for 3 days. Winning the division doesn’t mean much in the NHL.
I was watching the O’s game last night with a few friends and as the Orioles jumped to a 7-0 lead, I said dishearteningly to Jimmy Mo that the Red Sox would catch up by the 5th. The score after 5 was 8-8. Year after year we have to watch the Red Sox celebrate at our expense.After 10 games the O’s staff has given up 79 runs. It’s April 17 and the pitching is almost in shambles. I am beginning … Read More »

Because I was on the air at ESPN tonight , I missed the Maryland Basketball awards banquet. Testudo times reports of the sharing of the MVP award between Dave Neal and Greivis and they believe Greivis should have been the sole winner. There is no dispute that as Greivis went so did the Terps. Dave Neal provided an integral role in many of the victories but it was Greivis who was the straw that stirred the drink. In the … Read More »
Two key facts blare out from the final rivals.com 150 ratings just published: rivals has elevated incoming Terrapin Jordan Williams to a 4 Star recruit and of the top uncommitted players left potential Terrapins Lance Stephenson is rated 3rd and Terrell Vinson is rated 7th. Everyone has given up hope on Lance becoming a Terp but I have not. Why? Because he has had hundreds of chances to drop Maryland from his list and never has done so!!! … Read More »
