I give Bob Kraft an A for effort when it comes to recouping the Patriots first round pick in next month’s draft but as far as I’m concerned, it’s too little, too late. Kraft should been trying to recoup that pick ten months ago, not now. Roger Goodell is not going to give the Patriots pick number 29 back. It’s not going to happen. There’s a reason the NFL…
I’m Just Sayin: The Bruins and the Celtics Have Come Back to Earth.
Two weeks ago, some people around these parts were calling the Bruins and Celtics potential titles contenders. The Bruins had just gone toe to toe with Chicago and Washington, the two best teams in the NHL and proved that they could play with them. The Celtics were in the midst of a 14 game home winning streak and many NBA pundits were talking about them as a potential threat…
2016 NFL Draft: The Browns Need to Do the Right Thing and Draft Carson Wentz Over Jared Goff and Paxton Lynch.
The Browns need to do the right thing and draft Carson Wentz with the second overall pick. By all accounts, Cal quarterback Jared Goff had a terrific workout yesterday at Cal’s pro day. He impressed scouts with all of the different throws he completed during the work out and he moved well in and out of the pocket. Several teams spent time with Goff yesterday including the Browns who reportedly…
I’m Just Sayin: Let Me Give You Three Reasons Why Upsets Happen in the NCAA Basketball Tournament.
Those that know me know I can’t stand March Madness. I think it’s the most overrated sporting event of the year. That being said, what makes the tournament so popular, especially amongst the casual sports fan is the upsets. There have several big upsets thus far through two days. It shouldn’t be a surprise however. Unlike other sports, basketball is a little different because it’s not always about talent….
Idiot of the Day: Adam LaRoche.
I know I might seem like I’m a couple of days late to the party with this story but up until now, it hasn’t interested me. Well, that is until today when Adam LaRoche released a statement saying that when he signed with the White Sox two off-seasons ago, team vice president Kenny Williams told him his son Drake could be around the team on a daily basis. Look….
Here’s Further Proof That Most Sports Fans Don’t Watch College Hoops During the Regular Season. (Video)
If 70% of the people who fill in a bracket actually watched college basketball during the regular season, they would know that Arizona State didn’t make the tournament. Since most fans jump on the “bracket bandwagon” don’t watch during the regular season, they think they did. Yet another reason why I don’t pretend I watch college hoops or fill out a bracket.
Here’s How I Feel About March Madness. (Video)
There is nothing worse this time of year than fake college basketball fans. You know who I’m talking about. The assholes who haven’t watched a second of college hoops all winter and now all of a sudden, they’re filling out a bracket. These people piss me off! I can’t stand them. My guess is that 50-60% of people who fill out a bracket don’t actually watch or follow college hoops….
I’m Just Sayin: I Like When Billy B Goes Shopping.
Hydrate Bill. You need to make another deal today. It doesn’t happen often but when Billy B goes shopping, its fun. He went on a shopping spree this week acquiring five players in Jonathan Cooper, Chris Long Donald Brown, Martellus Bennett and Shea McClellin that will make a difference next season. I think Patriots fans are shocked/excited by the five acquisitions, especially Bennett who will pair up with Rob Gronkowski…
Patriots Pulse Blog: Shea McClellin Will Be a Great Fit in the Patriots Defense.
The Patriots added two former Chicago Bears to their roster in a span of three hours last night when they traded for Martellus Bennett and signed free agent defensive end/outside linebacker Shea McClellin to a three year deal. McClellin was drafted as a defensive end by the Bears in the first round of the 2012 draft. He has failed to live up to his potential thus far but the change…
Patriots Pulse Blog: The Patriots Stole Martellus Bennett from the Bears.
The Patriots acquired tight end Martellus Bennett and a sixth round pick from the Chicago Bears tonight in exchange for a fourth round pick. This is a tremendous deal for the Patriots, especially if Bennett comes in focused and in shape. If he does, they stole him from the Bears. At 6-6 273, Bennett can play in-line or split out on the line of scrimmage. He’s a sound run…
