Who To Start? It Won’t Be Brock
Amidst the excitement of a 3-0 start and a trip to New York City for ASU men’s basketball, the guys on the gridiron still have two games to play.
Lest we forget, considering the team’s current four-game skid.
The question surrounding this Saturday’s afternoon tilt...
Coyotes Bounce Back with Win Against The Wild
It was a real nail biter as the Phoenix Coyotes took on the Minnesota Wild Wednesday night. Playing much cleaner (they lost their fondness for the penalty box) stronger and with Bryzgalov in net, my Yotes looked like a whole different team than Monday night but it was a real back and...
Coyotes Fans..You Don’t Know How Good You’ve Got It
With all the recent promotions that the Coyotes think tank have put together, it’s come to my attention just how lucky us Yotes fans are.

Men’s Basketball Recruiting Outlook
Editors Note: We have a new basketball writer here at Pitchfork Nation. His name is Eric Salisbury, and he’s taking the ‘ole college try at this blogging thing. He may get a bit wordy for the blogosphere, but he was one of the few to storm the court when we beat...

Shades Of January Emerge In Devils Win
January 17 seems like an eternity ago.
On an otherwise unremarkable Saturday afternoon, the day before the Valley was whipped into a frenzy over the Arizona Cardinals advancing to Super Bowl XLIII, the Arizona State Sun Devils did the unthinkable.

10 @Sun Devils You Should Follow
James Harden - @jhard13 - Usually posts on which city’s mall he is shopping at that day. Entertaining nonetheless.
Jeff Pendergraph - @TheRealJP31 - Will be a bit more fun to follow once he recovers from hip surgery.
Herb Sendek - @HerbSendek - Does a great job of keeping...

Suns pay visit to surprising Rockets
Today on Fanster.com’s daily podcast, “The Show to Be Named Later”, my co-host Chuck Powell likened the Houston Rockets to the fat, ugly guy at the bar who somehow is with the hottest girl in the place.
In other words, the Rockets shouldn’t be winning…...
The Sports Retorter: ASU basketball– Non-conference opponent or fictitious college?
Have you seen ASU’s non-conference basketball schedule?
If not, don’t feel bad, I hadn’t had a great chance to familiarize myself with the Sun Devil’s early season opponents either until this morning. I knew they started off with two “tuneup” games...
Erickson’s Weekly Press Conference
Following ASU’s 44-21 loss to Oregon last Saturday, there’s even more speculation on whom will play quarterback for the Sun Devils in their next game at UCLA on Saturday.

Abbott, Lockett Pace Devils in NIT Opener
One thing is certain after two games: this is not your father’s Arizona State Sun Devils.
In fact, these aren’t your 1-year-old baby brother’s Devils.
If we learned anything from Arizona State’s 84-62 NIT regional semifinal victory over Texas State last night...
The Sports Retorter: Jerry Seinfeld can explain the Arizona Cardinals
The Arizona Cardinals are tough to figure out.
One week, they make a statement on national television by beating the Giants at the Meadowlands, and the next they lose big to the Carolina Panthers at University of Phoenix Stadium. Then they’ll beat up on the Chicago Bears on...
Rattlers relaunched

Crystal Balls Rewind: Sun Devils trounced in Eugene
Another week is in the books in the Pac-10, and only a few more to go. The week featured 4 routs and one close game, possibly decided by a player who didn’t know the rules of his position. More on that later.
Yours truly went 4-1 on straight up picks, and 3-2 for those [...]
