R.I.P Bill Walsh

Today is a sad day in the NFL for everyone as we all say goodbye to a hall of fame Head Coach. Bill Walsh. He died today after a long tenured battle with leukemia.
As a longtime diehard St. Louis Rams fan, I can’t help but to tip my cap to one of the greatest offensive [...]

Idiotic Sports Fans from ESPN.com

Recently, I’ve been trashed by e-mails from my friends over the Bulger money raid ($62.5M with a $3M bonus!) Most are really funny and not serious. However, I took a visit to ESPN.com today to check out the comments left by people on the ESPN Conversation that is apart of articles because I wanted to [...]

Some videos

A lazy post? Maybe. But I gave y’all a nice little writeup earlier. Just stick around for 12AM or so tonight and I’ll have a new post out regarding idiots from ESPN.com’s Conversation Beta feature.

What will hold up the 2007 St. Louis Rams offense?

10 Questions facing the Rams

I did NOT write this. It’s by Jim Thomas of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch. It’s a nice short questionnaire.
1. Can the “D” get it done?
Any discussion on the Rams in 2007 begins and ends here. Only four teams allowed more points last season than St. Louis. Entering training camp, nine of the Rams’ 11 projected [...]

In Other News: Vick, Donaghy, Selig

Listening to the same songs, watching the same movies, and reading the same books get repetitive, am I right? Well, so does hearing the same news. This whole past week us sports fans have had nothing to dwell on sinking our opinionated teeth into except the three following:
–     Still Vick, still the same.

Five Reasons Why We Should All Take a Hiatus from sports

I’ve been thinking over the past few days on my own personal hiatus from sports coverage and reading an immense amount of articles concerning current issues, and so it dawned on me: this hiatus from sports has been a good thing. Not having to sit back and get angry at athletes, coaches, refs, personnel, [...]

Sayings of Summer 2007

The sayings I’m about to write aren’t going to be anything near politically correct, and will be used as comical relief, so I warn you.
Anyhow, we all have our sayings, “that guy punched that other guy’s lights out,” “oh, man! Did you see Jackson own Liddell?!” Well those are pretty normal. Consider these three new [...]

All-Pro Football 2k8/NCAA Football ‘08

If you guys have been wondering why I didn’t post my Breaking ‘em Down segment last night, the title of this post explains all. I’m a big sports gamer, and being a big sports gamer, I picked up these two games (APF 2k8/NCAA ‘0 yesterday, and have been playing both of them (or well, [...]
