Recap: Bears vs. Giants

As inconsistent as the Bears are, they’ve been consistent in one category: not being able to win consecutive games this season. After the first drive, it looked as if the Bears were going to exemplify the growing problems with the Eli Manning, Tom Coughlin, and the New York Giants. Instead, the...

An Ode to the Old Man

As crazy as it sounds, I remember September 20th, 1992 quite vividly. I was in the hospital that no longer is operational (Ravenswood) for what appeared to be an Asthma attack. It was my freshman year of high school and there I was stuck in a hospital room. As you can imagine, there’s not much ...

Next Up: Bears vs. Vikings

"They don't call it the black and blue anymore when (Packers quarterback Brett) Favre throws it 50 times." - Vikings linebacker Chad Greenway. The Bears get back to business in another NFC North matchup, but it appears that both teams are headed in different directions. The Vikings got off to a nice...

No Playoffs For You

The 2007 NHL season was a myriad of hope before game one, yet the outlook continued to look even brighter as the season carried on. Patrick Kane and Jonathan Toews were as good as billed, Robert Lang seemed to be the missing veteran the Hawks needed on and off the ice, and Duncan Keith and [...]

Wait A New York Minute

Unfortunately, the end of the NFL season is upon us. The cold weather (very cold here) is making things even more difficult, especially when there seems to be nothing good on TV in terms of sports (although ESPN’s replays of “NFL’s Greatest Games” is a nice touch…). We e...

No Playoffs For You

The 2007 Chicago Blackhawks started off in a surprising fashion and over expecations, yet are just about out of chances for the playoffs. Here's five reasons as to why things went downhill.

Blackhawk Home Games on TV?

If you’re from Chicago and a hockey fan, you know the pain. You try to get involved with the Blackhawks, yet never see them in the United Center on TV. Well, unless you catch the news. You also know its bad when the Hawks do show home games (maybe 4 all year), they try to [...]

Division 3 Miracle

Unbelievable play…its a sure bet the refs were watching for any forward laterals so that the “Music City Miracle” debacle didn’t rear its ugly head.. Technorati Tags: SCAC, Trinity Tigers, Millsaps Majors, Music City Miracle

Bob Knight resigns from Texas Tech. While many consider his actions negative, his former players show extreme devotion to him.

Next Up: Bears vs. Lions

What’s changed for the Bears since they last met the Lions in week four? Nothing really, besides their record of course. The Bears offense? Still no running game and its been difficult at best to string along drives for most of the game. Defense? Not much of a change here, but at least they did...

Super Bowl Recap

Just a few observations… 1. Media: There’s nothing more enjoyable than seeing Sean Salisbury and Keyshawn Johnson back themselves into a corner with a “super safe” pick and then try to B.S. their way out of it and talk like it never happened. I’ve never seen sports comme...

Super Bowl Recap

The New York Giants defeated the New England Patriots 17-14 in Super Bowl XLII. Although I didn't have the score right, I picked the Giants to win 23-20 in possibly the biggest upset in Super Bowl history.

Recap: Bears vs. Eagles

No timeouts, 97 yards to go, and no touchdowns on 9 previous drives. Admit it, just like me you thought this game was over just as the Bears playoff chances were with a 2-5 record. I didn’t make the same mistake as last week by leaving with four minutes left, but I never in a [...]

Next Up: Bears vs. Giants

This week, Rex Grossman will have something in common with the opposition’s quarterback. They’re both former SEC quarterbacks in big markets that still have yet to prove their worth as premier NFL quarterbacks. The Giants are coming off a demoralizing loss to Minnesota where Eli Manning m...

Recap: Bears vs. Vikings

Losing badly to a bad team is about as low as it gets in the NFL. The Bears knew going into the game that the Vikings were one-dimensional on offense and they needed to slow down the more than likely rookie of the year in Adrian Peterson. That didn’t happen and Peterson rumbles for 244 [...]

Wait A New York Minute

Super Bowl XLII between the New York Giants and New England Patriots. I predict the Giants play spoiler and win 23-20 on a Tynes field goal.

Championship Sunday

What a difference a year makes. At this time last year, we all thought Brett Favre would wind up in Mississippi golfing in retirement and Tom Coughlin would be either be fired before the 2007 season began or would be fired after week 3. Oh, and there were the Bears preparing for the Saints in [...]

Recap: Bears vs. Broncos

A tad belated.. It’s odd to even think the Bears can discuss any possible chance of making an NFC wildcard appearance, however, until they lose their seventh game its somewhat of a reality. Even further, its hard to mutter “playoffs” with a team that’s not even .500. The win ...

Bears Run Defense vs. Minnesota

This guy (Jim Kleinsasser-Minnesota Vikings) was just one of the reasons the Bears had issues stopping Adrian Peterson and the Vikings running game. Add Bryant McKinnie, Steve Hutchinson and Matt Birk and you can see how good they make Peterson look. Thought this video was interesting of a guy whose ...
