  • Thoughts on Brady and more on Bears-Indy

    Unless you were in a coma the last few days, you probably heard that Tom Brady is out for the year. While Bostonians are obviously completely devastated by the news, the rest of the NFL fans in this country have something to look forward to. No, I'm not saying that the loss of Tom Brady is good for...

  • Stuff I Like: Sports! (not the album by Huey Lewis)

    This might be the most obvious "Stuff I Like" post imaginable. Of course I like sports, I write a freaking sports blog. What prompts this post is the fact that the Olympics are over, and I must admit that I'm not that much of a fan and I'm glad its over. Sure, seeing Michael Phelps...

  • 7/31/2008: Quick hits on MLB, the NFL and the NBA

    Ain't nothing like random thoughts by a faceless dude on the internets, so here goes: Today was the MLB Trade Deadline, and this might have been the most active trade deadline in terms of star power ever. Three first ballot hall of famers (Pudge, Junior, and Manny) were traded in the last 24 hours...

  • Stuff I Like: Podcasts

    I love my iPod. I held out for the longest time in getting one. I used to be an "early adopter" with new technology, but that sort of fell by the wayside as I moved into my late 20s. This also coincides with the time that iPods started taking off. When they came out, I thought they were kind...

  • NFL Franchise QBs: How do the Bears stack up?

    With the draft coming up, I was thinking about "franchise QBs" and why the Bears were so lousy at acquiring them. I then started to wonder how the Bears stacked up against the other 31 NFL teams in terms of Quarterbacks and how bad they really were. I mean, there's only so many Joe Montanas...

  • Is New England's Loss Good for the NFL?

    The Patriots' loss to the Giants in the Super Bowl the other day might have been a blessing in disguise for the NFL. I don't think it made a difference in the ( stellar ) ratings, but from an image standpoint. A New England win would have brought more attention to SpyGate, and if any of the recent...

  • GEE, MEN!!!!!! Eli and the Giants Shock the Patriots

    "I cannot believe what I just saw." - Jack Buck, after Kirk Gibson's walkoff home run off Dennis Eckersley in the 1988 World Series. The game has been over for over an hour, and I still can't believe it. Eli Manning and the New York Giants shocked the world and upset the 18-0 Patriots...

  • Super Predictions

    The 42nd edition of the Big Game is Sunday, and I'm going to state right now that this game is a win-win for me. My reasoning is simple. If the Patriots win, they'll shut up the New York Giants -- a team I despise. They'll also shut up the '72 Dolphins -- a team that I'm sick of....

  • NFL Playoffs: Divisional Round Recap

    Went to Blackhawks game with the CSB crew Friday night and had a great time. Hawks lost, but the beer was cold and what else is new? Didn't get a chance to watch the Bulls suck it up in Atlanta today, nor is there any Cubs or Sox news to write about. So you know what's left? I'll let Jim...

  • Following Up

    Just to follow up on a few posts from earlier this week.... Mike Mulligan of the Sun-Times thinks the additional cap space given to the NFL means that the Bears will be less likely to sign a marquee free agent. Even though the Bears will be as much as 20 million dollars under the cap, he just doesn't...
