Patriots linebacker Jerod Mayo unexpectedly announced his retirement tonight after eight seasons in New England. Mayo was drafted 10th overall in the 2008 draft out of Tennessee. Bill Belichick shocked pundits with the Mayo pick because up until that point, Belichick refused to draft linebackers in the early round of the draft because he preferred veteran players at the position. So what kind of a player was Mayo? If I…

Why do I get the sense Ainge isn’t going to do shit come Thursday?  1. Tobias Harris would have been a nice pick up for the Celtics. Instead, he’s going to Detroit. Why do I have a feeling Ainge isn’t going to do shit on Thursday? 2. While it’s funny that Mookie Betts crashed his golf cart into a pond, I’m just glad he’s not hurt. Don’t get me wrong,…

  Mookie Betts and three of his teammates were playing a round of golf on Sunday when Betts accidentally drove his golf cart into a pond. Betts and his teammates are lucky they didn’t get hurt. Lesson learned here folks. Don’t let an inexperienced golf cart driver drive. 

http://youtu.be/hUzt-7QZY2A Ronda Rousey recently appeared on The Ellen DeGeneres Show and admitted that she wanted to kill herself the night she lost to Holly Holm. That’s some heavy shit. I give Rousey credit. Most people wouldn’t admit that they have contemplated suicide never mind admitting it in front of a national television audience. Good for Rousey. I give her credit for doing that and seeking the help she needed. Now…

  Jenrry Meija might just be the biggest idiot of all time. The Mets reliever was banned for life after testing positive for a banned substance three times in the same calendar year. What is wrong with this guy? How do you get caught three times in the same year? I don’t get it? The bigger question is, why wasn’t there anyone in this young man’s life to guide him?…

  Peyton Manning could be the biggest fraud in American sports history.  Peyton Manning is Teflon. Nothing will ever stick to him. Not the HGH scandal, not the sexual abuse claims. Nothing! You can try all you want but as long as he’s beloved by football fans in Tennessee, Indianapolis, Denver and the national media, nothing will ever stick to him. Nothing! Manning is the football fair haired boy from…

 Paul George played some quality defense last night. I mean, look at the technique. Text book!  1. The NBA all-star was a joke last night. The final score was 196-173? Really? Did anyone attempt to play defense? All-star games are a thing of the past. They need to go. We need to let them go! Stop hanging onto yesteryear.  2. Red Sox players and coaches aren’t wasting any time. Many…

I wouldn’t mind seeing these two guys in a Celtics uni.  I am going put my fan hat on. I want Danny Ainge to trade for either Dwight Howard or Kevin Love. The Celtics need a face of the franchise. A proven commodity that can enable them to make a run in the Eastern Conference. I know most Celtics fans will disagree with the notion that they need a star…

  I appreciate all of the excitement around here regarding Matt Forte but the fact of the matter is, the Patriots can’t afford him. Not unless Forte is willing to take a one year deal for short money. If he wants years and $3-4 million dollars a season, he won’t get that here.  The Patriots are not in a position to afford Forte with all of the impending free agents…

  According to Denver Broncos linebacker Danny Trevathan, the 2015 Broncos defense is better than the 1985 Chicago Bears defense, which is widely considered the greatest defense of all time.  I hate to burst your bubble Danny, but you’re high. The numbers don’t lie. While the 2015 Denver defense was good, statistically they don’t compare to the 85 Bears. In fact, it’s not even close. The 85 Bears were way…
