Blog: December 2005 Archives
Terrible, terrible, tragedy for Tony Dungy and the Colts family. The death of his son, likely a suicide, comes at a time when Dungy should be drinking deeply from the sweetness of a career and life that is reaching it’s peak. There’s never a good time for this, but as fate would have it, Dungy is currently in a spot where he CAN be absent from the team for a good 2 weeks if needed.
There is a baseline of competence that even the most legendary of quarterbacks must meet. And Favre failed that on Monday. I'm not saying he "mailed it in" or was "tanking" but certainly the effort was soooo far below his standards that it stuck out like a sore thumb. And don't start with the "just trying to make a play" angle or the excuse of not having "any weapons around him."
One must wonder what Howard Cosell thinks of the impending "death" of Monday Night Football on broadcast TV? What must he think of the plan for TWO sideline reporters who are women? What would Cosell say about Chris Berman? All things to ponder, as MNF turns the page to cable.
A step has been taken. That’s all you need to say. A step, HAS been taken. It doesn’t mean that this team won’t take steps backward in the future. It doesn’t mean that this current step will lead to the playoffs.
But a step, is a step. And it has been taken.
When you dominate a rival, (wait a minute: DOMINATE. There, that’s better…) and you do it when it matters, and you do it without mercy, it means the sorry-case, sad-sack franchise that you ONCE knew is changing before your eyes.
As Sunday’s epic Redskins-Cowboys showdown looms closer, the REAL significance of the game has finally crystallized in my mind. It is this: Mark Brunnell NEEDS to win this game. Period. It is his moment, his time to prove the wisdom...
Something to think about regarding the Dolphins perfect season of 1972. Take yourself back to that time and consider this. Who, exactly, was talking about their chances of running the table back then? Not a national newspaper that writes huge...
Pat Riley finally did the deed and whacked Stan Van Gundy as we all expected. We shall see if it has any effect. Normally, I would scoff at coaching changes mid-season in the NBA as having any chance of success,...
I apologize if some of you don’t like me “printing” a lot of reader e-mails in this space. I am somewhat torn. While I think you readers deserve “original content” I also really enjoy, respect, and like reading the thoughtful,...
There's only one thing worse than playing like ass against a lowly team like Arizona and winning. That's doing the same, and losing, which thankfully, my Redskins did NOT do on Sunday. Still, it looks like we're down to our last 5 plays on offense, which doesn't bode well come this Sunday when the BlueStars roll into town. How likely is a Joe Gibbs sweep of Bill Parcells? Not very. He's done it only twice in his career. MORE......
Well, Gary Barnett got the gaspipe in Colorado. I just love however, how these things end up as “resignations” rather than “firings.” The ol’ “forced resignation” is like the hairsweep of coaching changes in sports. They never fool anybody, and...
Some people were perplexed at why I was so virulently anti-Congress when the whole steroids witch-hunt was going on this summer. They wondered: “what, do you WANT players on the juice?” The answer is of course, no. Well, let me...

Okay, roll out the rack of basketballs, and let me start poppin’ like I’m Bird at the 3-point contest… 1. John Holmes wins the PGA Tour Q-School. Yep. John. Holmes. Has a super stiff shaft, can really put it in...
When somebody sent me the video of the Christmas light display that would put Clark Griswold to shame, I was convinced that it was an artful hoax. My thought was that somebody had digitially edited the video frame by frame....
For a long time, it sure did look like Joe Gibbs was hell-bent on making SURE that the Rams would be in the game right to the very end. Thankfully, Ryan Fitzpatrick is a rookie, they put the ball on...
Memo to DC area baseball fans: things are about to get reeeaaaalllly interesting regarding the deal to build a new stadium for the Nats. Why? Because MLB made the mistake of leaving a small crack in the door to building....
Frank Solich should be fired. Yesterday, at the latest. You might have heard that the former Nebraska coach (now with Ohio) pled no contest to a DUI. Okay, but it was no ordinary DUI. The coach was found by officers...
