The St. Louis Rams found their man on Saturday afternoon. Steve Spagnuolo, the [now former] New York Giants defensive coordinator. What a steal. Considering the guy was on the top of everybody’s lists to get as a head coach, and the lowly Rams hired him, that’s a freakin’ steal! I’m starting to draft a big [...]

Mike Tomlin says the Steelers will go all the way
One of these four teams will be NFL champions:
Baltimore Ravens
Arizona Cardinals
Philadelphia Eagles
Pittsburgh Steelers
Baltimore will take on Pittsburgh on Heinz Field next Sunday afternoon, while Arizona and Philadelphia will tangle in Phoenix Stadium. Don’t let me forget to remind you that CBS is the number one watched station in America (in case your mind is a [...]

The Cavs are the best Team in the NBA
For now.
I’m not going to list you the score or the stats. You should know that by now. You’re reading a blog about sports, and chances are you like sports. If you want the score and stats, head on over to ESPN.com or wherever you horde up around and read the recap, or just peruse [...]

Yankees, Schmankees
I don’t care about history; baseball needs a salary cap for the sake of the baseball fan. But I’m not going to ramble on about it. That’s saved for another day.
Let’s review what the New York Yankees have done, shall we?
They paid pitcher C.C. Sabathia $182 million. Awesome. But or is it awesome? Sabathia has [...]

Van Gundy: LeBron James is Better Than Larry Bird
“LeBron is better than Larry Bird” — Jeff Van Gundy
“LeBron will definitely be the best SF to ever play the game” — Mark Jackson
Seriously? Better than Bird? I don’t see it. I’m not being a homer, but we’re talking about (probably) a top two or three player ever in Larry Bird. LeBron has that ceiling? [...]

No BCS Championship for the Utah Utes
I’m getting severely irritated at Utah Utes fans, Florida Gators haters, and any other NCAA fan who’s mouthing off about Utah being the rightful national champions of the league. The 2004 Auburn Tigers team whom were 13-0, now that team deserved a title shot. Utah? Besides beating Alabama, what adds to their credibility?
Please, go on. [...]

Florida ‘Chomps’ Oklahoma, wins BCS Championship
I’m not going to deliver you the score (wait, I will: 24-14 Gators) or give you the stats (I’m not going to change my mind on this one), but I will say this: SEC Football was played and hammered on the field last night, the recipient being the Oklahoma Sooners and the emanating coming from [...]

The Red Sox’s John Smoltz
Huh? The title doesn’t sound spiffy does it? I agree. It sounds horrid. Awful. It’s tyranny. It’s Frank Wren’s fault.
Frank Wren, general manager of the Atlanta Braves, didn’t pay heed to any fans’ wishes, nor did he take the ‘best for the business’ propaganda in to acount when discussing why he’s allowing the Atlanta Braves [...]

What’s Wrong with the Celtics?
As the guy who runs Red’s Army wrote, the Boston Celtics were on a precipice of building a lead until Paul Pierce drove to the basket, got knocked, and didn’t receive a foul call. As it had happened in the past, it didn’t happen last night. The game went awry with that moment.
Let me tell [...]
