I’m not a fan of college basketball but even I have to admit, this tournament has been fantastic. The Final Four sucked but aside from that, March Madness lived up to the hype. Hey, who knows? Maybe I’ll get back into next year. Of course, I say that every year.
Baseball season is here! Opening Day is one of my favorite days of the year on the sports calender. Here are my divisional picks, wild card picks, playoff winners and World Series winner. American League A.L East 1. New York Yankees: Yup, I’m back on the Yankees bandwagon again. Health is the key for the Bronx Bombers this season. If guys like Jacoby Ellsbury, Alex Rodriguez and Mark Texiera stay…
I don’t want to sound like I’m diminishing the Celtics 109-106 win over the Warriors last night but it’s further proof that they are one of the most inconsistent teams in the NBA. Beating Golden State last night is not a surprise to me because the Celtics are the only team in the NBA the last two years that the Warriors haven’t beaten by more than five points during…
Happy fucking Monday….. pic.twitter.com/zo7fINW0ab — Mattie Rogers (@mattie_rogers) March 28, 2016 Hahahahaha. This is pretty freakin funny, I’m not going to lie. The look on her face after she drops it is priceless. I love that she chases the barbell. Like she’s going to stop it. Classic. Here’s the aftermath. Yes. It was a window. pic.twitter.com/xOcj1AzHG8 — Mattie Rogers (@mattie_rogers) March 28, 2016 Here’s the young female competitor. Patience. Aggression….
The Los Angeles Lakers have turned into an embarrassment and I love it. From Kobe’s pathetic retirement tour to Nick Young cheating on Iggy Azalea to De’Angelo Russell snitching on Young, the Lakers have turned into a pathetic circus and as a life long Celtics fan, I couldn’t be happier! Add to that the pathetic tenure of Byron Scott as coach and the Lakers look like a team that’s years…
The Patriots have agreed to a one year, $4.5 million dollar deal with defensive tackle Terrance “Pot Roast” Knighton. Knighton picked the Patriots over re-signing with the Redskins. He will be a great fit with the Patriots as a shade defensive tackle in their 4-3 base. Knighton has played with the Jaguars, Broncos and Redskins in his career. He’s known as a run stuffing, two gap tackle who can play…
I give John Farrell credit for naming Travis Shaw his starting third baseman to start the season. Shaw had a good spring and he outperformed Pablo Sandoval. He deserves to start over him as far as I’m concerned. It was great to see that the Red Sox didn’t factor Sandoval $19 million dollar salary in the decision and nor should they have. Sandoval has failed to produce thus far…
The Patriots signed veteran tight end Clay Harbor this afternoon. The 6-3 250 pound Harbor is more of a move tight end than he is a traditional tight end. He can line up in a variety of spots within a formation and create match ups versus linebackers and safeties. Harbor is an average blocker. He can’t win one on one as an inline blocker because he’s short armed and…
Rizzo playing "Hello" by Adele. pic.twitter.com/V7ma6r3bPD — James Neveau (@JamesNeveau) March 29, 2016 This is awesome. I love that Joe Maddon lets his team’s have fun. The Cubs haven’t had a great spring (who cares, it doesn’t count) but they’ve definitely had more fun than any other team in spring training. Case in point, Anthony Rizzo playing Adele. Not bad I must say. I don’t even like the song and…
Brian Windhorst fell asleep during a live ESPN interview pic.twitter.com/aMzsDVC74c — RotoQL (@rotoqlapp) March 29, 2016 How could Windhorst fall asleep on national television? I don’t get it? What is he, Mike Ditka? Check the man’s blood sugar! JEEZ! Who the hell falls asleep on while on an ESPN broadcast? Mindboogling. Windhorst must have sleep apnea or something because that shouldn’t happen to a guy his age. Besides, fall asleep…
