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…
Irsay has such a boozer face. What a dope! According to Indianapolis Colts owner Jim Irsay, the side affects of concussions in football are similar to taking aspirin. WHAT??? I knew Irsay was a booze bag and he has said some dumb shit in his life but this might be the dumbest thing he’s ever said. NFL owners and coaches need to face the facts. The game is changing. Either…
If the Padres really want Sandoval, the Red Sox need to make it happen. Rumors were swirling yesterday that the Red Sox and Padres have had discussions about Red Sox third baseman Pablo Sandoval. According to industry sources, the Padres want Sandoval and a top prospect for pitcher James Shields. The Red Sox would also have to eat some of Sandoval’s contract. If I were Dave Dombrowski, I would do…
I am not quite sure what people expected out of Batman vs. Superman but what they got was an action packed, comic book movie. Isn’t that what it is after all? Reviews of the much anticipated film have been harsh. Most so called film critics didn’t like it. I must admit, I was skeptical of this movie as well prior to seeing it. However, after seeing it on Thursday…
I hope Browns fans have realistic expectations for RG3 in Cleveland. It’s great that the Browns signed RG3 to a two year deal but let’s be honest, he’s going to be a disaster in Cleveland. It won’t be because of coaching. Hue Jackson is a good coach. He won’t be the problem. It’s Griffin that’s the problem. He’s damaged physically and mentally. Griffin will not be the solution in…
Buddy Hield in a Celtics uniform? Yes please! 1. The Celtics and Bruins both won last night but the games were much closer than they should’ve been. You’ve got to blow out teams like the Suns and Leafs. 2. The B’s snapped a five game skid last night in Toronto but they didn’t play well. It was 2-1 for most of the night. They’ll need to play much better…
On the surface, the Nate Washington signing seems like a good signing for the Patriots. Washington gives them some much needed size on the outside and he gives them a vertical threat. That’s what Washington brings to the table in theory. That’s not reality however. At 32, Washington is no longer a starting receiver who can make big plays and put up big numbers. Those days are behind. Can…
