The cash strapped Cowboys need to find a starting corner and defensive tackle in this draft. They also need another wide receiver to go with Dez Bryant, Terrance Williams and Cole Beasley. Wentz and Goff…
2016 NFL Draft: Doc’s Thoughts on the Top Ten Cornerbacks in this Draft.
1. Vernon Hargreaves Florida 5-10 1/2 204: Hargreaves is a smooth, fluid athlete who has good feet and can flip his hips with ease. Hargreaves maintains good hip position and despite his size, has terrific ball skills. Hargreaves is not afraid stack and shed a blocker and make a form tackle. Hargreaves has the work ethic and the leadership qualities teams look for. I think he will be a solid…
2016 NFL Draft: For the Rams, the Choice is Easy. It’s Carson Wentz.
The Rams will have a tough decision to make next Thursday. The Rams gave up a boatload of picks to acquire the number one pick in the draft last Friday. They did so that they can draft a quarterback. Now the question being asked is, who is it going to be? Wentz or Goff? By all accounts, the organization is split. The front office likes Goff, the scouts like Wentz….
NBA At Large: Doc’s First Round NBA Playoff Predictions.
The NBA playoffs are here. There are some intriguing match ups in the first round. Here are my predictions for who will advance to the second round round. Eastern Conference #1 Cleveland Cavaliers vs. #8 Detroit Pistons: The Cavs should cruise in this series. Detroit is well coached and they’ll give Lebron and company a run for their money but in the end, the Cavs are a much better…
Patriots Pulse Blog: To Put it Mildly, the Patriots Schedule is a Bitch in 2016.
Maybe the NFL truly doesn’t like the Patriots. O.K, maybe that’s not true however they didn’t do them any favors with their schedule. Its a bitch, especially on the road. The Pats are going to play their usual divisional opponents and the other division winners in the AFC but in addition to that, they are also playing the AFC North and the NFC West. Here are my five thoughts on…
Black and Yellow Blog: The Bruins Retaining Claude Julien Was a Smart Move.
The Bruins did the right thing retaining coach Claude Julien. While its easy to place the blame for the Bruins failures the past two seasons at his feet, the reality is Julien doesn’t have the players necessary to coach this team to a cup. General manager Don Sweeney needs to equip Julien with the right players. I know the Bruins love their core but it might be time to…

I’m Just Sayin: Kobe Was Awesome Last Night! Even Us Celtics Fans Were in Awe. (Videos)
As a life long Celtics fan, I detest Kobe Bryant and the Lakers. However, even I was in awe at Bryant’s farewell performance last night. Bryant scored 60 points in his final game. It was truly impressive. The only way he could have scripted it better was if the Lakers won a championship (thank goodness they didn’t). Last night was a harsh reminder that time flies. I remember when Bryant…
Doc’s Daily Blurb: Spear Me With the Sandoval Shoulder Sprain BS!
The Red Sox have to be kidding themselves if they think Sox fans will buy this bullshit that Pablo Sandoval was placed on the 15 day D.L today because of a shoulder strain. Yeah and I’m a model. Give me a break! Sandoval was placed on the D.L today for one reason and one reason only. To get in shape! Period! That’s it! He’s fat and he needs to…
Patriots Pulse Blog: The Patriots Releasing Dominique Easley is Not a Surprise to Me.
I can’t say I’m surprised that the Patriots released 2014 first round pick Dominique Easley. Easley had “top ten” talent coming out of Florida in 2014 but a myriad of injuries, namely a torn right ACL limited Easley to only three games his last year in Gainsville. The Patriots reached for Easley. I didn’t like the pick at the time because of Easley’s injury history. You can’t take a…
