Giants Down Rangers for First World Series win Since ‘54
November 1, 2010
Arlington, Texas
Why pitch to Edgar Renteria? That is the question that will haunt Texas Manager Ron Washington every breathing moment until Spring Training.
In the top of the seventh, having surrendered consecutive singles to Ross and Uribe, Cliff Lee deftly fielded Aubrey Huff’s first career sac bunt and got the out at first. With one out and runners at second...

Giants Take 1-0 Series Lead Over Rangers
**** L. Marler, October 28, 2010
Unless you’re a Giants fan, this one was fairly mundane. I probably would have nodded off when Lincecum took the mound in the top of 6 with a six run lead if the cameraman hadn’t fallen in love with Barry
“Big Head” Bonds grinning stupidly from the front row.
Going in, this one was billed as a pitching matchup between Tim Lincecum and Cliff...

We All Know How It Looks Now
The great thing about live TV is that you never know what you’ll see. Sometimes you do see things you wish you hadn’t seen though. As with the case of Visanthe Shiancoe, who as we know by now was just hanging out in the locker room after the Minnesota Viking’s game, when we saw “it” [...]

How Not to Cover Up a Gunshot Wound
Details of Plaxico’s super smart night out are beginning to emerge. The coverup of the incident makes it really sound like it was chaotic trying to coverup the whole situation. First the club never called police and helped cleaned up. Then his group called around for 90 minutes trying to find a discreet place for [...]

Charles Barkely Got it Right
Last time I checked the calendar, 2011 is a long time away. That’s two NBA champions. Two NBA MVP awards away. So I applaud Charles Barkely for telling Lebron James “to shut the hell up” for talking about free agency already. Then Lebron, who probably needed to rethink this answer, just called him “stupid”. If [...]

Warren Sapp Dancing Fool
The lineups are out for the new season of Dancing with the Stars. Laugh all you want but I am a fan of the show. There are some competitors that I find myself really rooting for. Plus the professional female dancers are smoking hot. However looking at this year’s list of contestants, you have your [...]

Frustrations of Trying to Watch the Olympics
I’m living in Taipei, Taiwan now. Been having a great time. Except that they did not broadcast the Super Bowl here in Februrary. I was pretty upset at the time. Missed arguably the best Super Bowl now. I’m over it now. The wound has closed. Got so excited by the start of the Beijing Olympics. [...]

20 Years of Madden Football
This will either bring back good memories or make you feel really old. It’s a retrospective of Madden from the last 20 years. That makes me feel old cause I remember playing Madden 92 (above). It’s a cool progression to see how far the graphics have come. Also mentions the big new features from that [...]

Got More Weight Than That on His Shoulders Now
Brett Favre wearing anything but a big G on his helmet? Not play in below zero temperatures? Yes, it’s going to be strange for fans and players of the NFL to see that. It’s official. Brett Favre is going from the small town to the big city. I’ll be honest and say I did not [...]

Where is the Love?
Bloody nose. Check. Knee to the groin. Check. Trash talking on both sides. Check. Body check to the boards. Check. Suspensions. Check. Series tied 2-2. Check.
Best series right now. Check.

Finally We Are About To Rumble
Boxing’s biggest fight in a long time is tomorrow night and I’m almost considering paying an arm and a leg so I can see what unfolds live. Seeing the replay the next week just might not be satisfying enough. Charles Barkley said tonight on TNT he is pissed that Houston and Utah are going...

No Mas for a Rematch Please
Who wants their money back? Who would not buy another boxing match after the match not living up to the hype?
After a well tuned marketing campaign to get everyone talking about this fight, we all might be scratching our head and wondering what we actually paid for.
Both fighters looked more like th...

How Do the Yanks Like Them Apples?
This is what gets me excited about baseball. The best rivalry in baseball going at it in Boston over the weekend with the Sunday night matchup featuring Dice-K who sees the Yankees for the first time this season. Yankees bringing the one man offensive machine A-Rod who is on a torrid offensive pac...

Brady Would Be Very Upset At This Mock Draft
I’m not one to read every major draft guru’s mock NFL Draft. I’ll look to see who’s going in the top ten then see who the Jaguars might screw up taking. Everyone’s mock draft is different. Getting the exact order of the first round of the NFL draft feels as hard as fill...

Baggy Jeans Must Have Shallow Pockets
Still trying to wrap my head around this Virgina Tech tragedy. I haven’t been glued to the news like this since 9/11. I think now the story will die down and that will give time to the family to have their privacy. Of course this is something that will never be forgotten in our lifetime. [...]...

Perfect Example of America Overreacting

The Old Fart Is Back For the Price of a Small Country
I thought Roger Clemens wanted to go to a contender. When you have more money than you know what to do with, what's the difference between a million or two per month? He could have gone to Boston to end his career where it started. He'd make that starting five the best in baseball. They have a legitimate shot to win the World Series.

Always Make Sure You Pay Your Bookie
Make this a lesson to pay your bookie if you ever need to, as demonstrated by Stewie from "The Family Guy". Hilarious.
(Stewie wanted his money because he bet Brian, the dog, whether Carol Channing or Mike Tyson would win in a fight. Of course Brian bet Tyson but Carol Channing kicked his ass.)

Colts Kickers Have Big Mouths
The below quote is courtesy of Colts punter Hunter Smith.
"Jacksonville is like a stand-up comic who can only use vulgarity and curse words because he lacks intelligence and lacks class," Smith told the Indianapolis Star. "He really doesn't have anything to say. Our intangible is our class and our intelligence. A team that gets personal fouls the way they...

Lions Coach Misunderstands "Exhibition Game"
I have no idea how this never made it into the Yard. Joe Cullen, a defensive line coach for the Detroit Lions, has been arrested twice in the last two weeks. Once for driving drunk and once for driving naked. I love sports.
