Woe Is Curt Schilling
Curt Schilling took to the internets today to extol the virtues of the American League Champion Boston Red Sox. It makes me taste vomit in the back of my throat just to utter a congratulation in their direction but they deserve the honor. They got two gems from Josh Beckett, tons of good hitting and...

What's New In Jets Land?
Pretty big game for the Jets this weekend. The Eagles, not exactly setting the world on fire themselves, are coming to town and Chad Pennington's fighting for his job and, perhaps, his future with the Jets. I discussed this weekend's matchup and a lot more with Brian Bassett of the always excellent ...

Two Men, Two And A Half Games
Two Yankees solidified their spots on the postseason roster and the entire team crept closer to an unlikely division title during a 12-0 rout of the Orioles. Mike Mussina, all-but-certain Game Four starter in October, threw seven shutout innings with sharpness that eluded him most of the season. He h...

Why in the world is James Dolan allowing this Isiah Thomas trial to keep moving forward? If you owned a business that was getting dragged through the mud on a daily basis in front of your customer base what would it be worth to you to make it stop? Take into account that said company was part ...

A Bronx Cheer For Me, Yankees
Yeah, I know it's been awhile. I've been wrapped up with the new gig at the FanHouse and shirking my duties to the horse that brung me. For that I'm deeply sorry and will try my best to make up for the long absence. What better place to start making up for lost time than with the Yankee...

The Greatest
I was watching PTI at the gym this afternoon and in the first four stories Wilbon and Kornheiser called something the greatest of all time. First up were the Patriots, who Tony said would go 19-0 and were the best football team of all time. Then came Devin Hester, the greatest kick returner of all...

Shelley Duncan Is A True Yankee
They say that when September rolls around rookies have graduated to an in between level of experience. Something like floor 7 1/2 in Being John Malkovich, I guess. You aren't quite a veteran but you are more than just a greenhorn. Shelley Duncan of the Yankees, for example, is in just such a situati...

It's Getting Tight In The Collar Out There
Tim Wakefield might want to consider throwing four wide ones the next time Frank Thomas lumbers to the plate. The Big Hurt had gone deep three times in one game before last night's game - September 15, 1996 with all three coming against the knuckleballer - and repeated the trick in last night's 8-...

25 And 6 To 4
Last night's 8-5 win over the Orioles have the Yankees three and a half games behind the Red Sox and ahead of the Tigers by the same amount. Given their schedule edge over the gang from Detroit it's hard not to start looking ahead to October and part of that gazing includes figuring out who is going...

What Does 2-0 Mean To You?
Every football season brings a handful of teams that win their first two games and dreams of postseason crop up in places that were just hoping for a .500 record before the season started. According to the Houston Chronicle, since 2002 41 teams have started 2-0 but only 24 of those teams have gone o...

Mets Lose Again
In an article on MLB.com yesterday Marty Noble quoted an unnamed Met as saying that "we play at the temperature of the manager. I know Willie cares a lot, but he's not showing it much." Mike and the Mad Dog talked about it with Paul Lo Duca yesterday and Lo Duca wouldn't say anything whe...

Yankees Gain But What Do Red Sox Lose
Make no doubt about it, cutting Boston's lead from 14 and a half games to a game and a half over four months is an impressive achievement. Many teams have folded the tents after a poor start and Joe Torre deserves a mountain of credit for keeping his team focused on winning and not dwelling on the n...

Mets Get Back On Track
Unlike the Red Sox the Mets really did have something to worry about if they couldn't stop their losing streak. The second place team in the NL East is guaranteed nothing by way of the Wild Card so it's really the best bet to keep a tight grip on that brass ring. After a week of slipping the Mets ...

Top ten worst sports owners in history
Bryan Colangelo won the NBA Executive of the Year Award today, following in his father's footsteps and continuing the NBA's dogged persistence in giving awards to teams that get bounced from the playoffs in the first round. That got me thinking about some of the worst men to occupy front offices in the history of sports. It's a delicate game because you have hands-off...

The Departed, a movie about Boston, became the perfect epitaph for the Patriots, a team from Boston and that was just the start of the similarities between the two events. Check out the rest in the full article.
