Blog: February 2008 Archives

cover_believe.jpgSure, some people don't believe in the tooth fairy, Santa Claus, or Roger Clemens. I'm not one of them, people! Stop being so skeptical! As you will see, it just takes a little imagination, and a few logical conclusions to get on his side! Who is with me?

cover_sjk_one.jpgWell, lo and behold, I caught the ever-so-serious Bob Ley on Sunday morning on ESPN's Outside the Lines, and it appears that Miss Klein is now gonna be struttin' in even more fabulous Dolce and Gabbana! She won a $19 million lawsuit against FSU for her firing. Fabu! Even though an appeal reduced the amount (just don't reduce anything else!) she's still been vindicated.

cover_beltway.jpgThe wonder of the Beltway at non-peak hours is that you are pretty much doin' a comfortable 75-85, and just blending in. Furthermore, because law enforcement knows that trying to identify, pull over, and safely ticket any speeders is not only fruitless, but ends up snarly traffic for miles.

cover_masn_hd.jpgYep, you read it right. They will be doing some 80 games combined (about 40 each for the Nats and O’s) in HD, but good luck getting to see it unless you are sitting in MASN’s studios. Which, as far as I can tell, are in a broom closet somewhere in Peter Angelos’ 3rd floor offices of the warehouse across from Eutaw Street.

cover_vitale_surfing.jpgCase in point, was Saturday night’s 1 vs. 2 clash in Memphis. There was Dick Vitale, “whooooaaaa baybee-ing” it up from courtside. He had all his nicknames. His schtick. His “I’m so lucky to be here” lines. The old “look at the emotion of these college kids” gushing. The over-the-top praise for the two coaches on the sideline.

cover_barack_therock.jpgWhere “The Rock” once ridiculed foes as a bunch of “roody-poo, candy asses”, Barack is bee-boppin’ and scattin’ to the tune of free education, free heath care, an immediate end to the war in Iraq, and above all else, a chance for Dems and Repubs to hold hands in a big circle around Capitol Hill and sing “We Are the World.”

wie_wrists_neversame.jpgMichelle Wie is playing golf again. Good for her. But judging by her “pre-registered” excuse for the 2008 season, I don’t think she plans on being a big factor on the LPGA Tour, or anywhere else.

cover_schilling_vanhorn.jpgIt’s the Van Horn and Schilling deals that really rankle me as a fan. Maybe you too. Maybe Schilling is being honest that he didn’t know his shoulder was shot when he signed with Boston. I tend to doubt it.

cover_lockdown.jpgMany of you emailers crucified ME, claiming all kinds of things. Things like: “You can’t ever prevent these incidents.” Or “it’s impossible to ‘lockdown’ an area as big as a University.” Well then. You jerks might want to read the following passage from the Daily Princetonian…

cover_vinny_danny_zorn.jpgWell, excuse me for being rude, BUT I’M NOT IMPEDING HIM! Nothing I say, or do, will impact whether Horny Zorny is a raging success as Redskins coach, or a stinking plop of a failure. What people really MEAN when they say “just give him a chance” to somebody with a sports opinion that is negative about a new player or coach, they are really saying “change your opinion of him.”

cover_clemens_allin.jpgWhen you’re all in, you are all in. It’s that simple. And it’s exactly where Roger Clemens is now. Clemens and his hired legal pit bull Rusty Hardin walked through this decision weeks ago behind closed doors. And if you think like Roger, it makes perfect sense.

cover_rocker_throws.jpg“Oh yeah, that redneck pitcher? What the hell is he doing now?” Rocker has weighed in on the current steroid controversy, by proudly claiming he failed a mandated “drug” test after his “7-Train Suspension” that was ordered by Bud Selig.

cover_berman.jpgThe first one, goes well beyond creepy, and into the realm of downright slimy. Imagine for a second, if Berman wans't a well known, highly paid TV personality. Would he EVER get laid with a "rap" like that?

cover_zorn_skins.jpgOnly after a half dozen other official candidates had come and gone, did Snyder in Day 29 decide: “How about that offensive coordinator guy we hired?” On Friday last week, we concluded the “Sports Reporters” on Sportstalk 980 with a quick roundtable prediction on when, exactly, this search might end. I said simply: “Watch out for a Saturday surprise.”

cover_fassell.jpgA coach who was doing nothing more than radio commentary for Westwood One broadcasts of NFL games (I mean, when you are an ex-coach and can’t even get on the NFL Network, man that’s lame!) just a few months ago, is about to have a press conference in front of 3 Lombardi trophies he had nothing to do with.

cover_abomination_nominatio.jpgNothing like a “Republican” who opposes tax cuts, is in favor of amnesty for illegals, won’t allow waterboarding of Al Qaeda, and is ready to throw in with the Global Warming Hoax crowd to cripple our economy with absurd regulations.

teaser_ne_camera.jpgAfter months of dormancy, Spygate lives. The NFL’s “thorough” investigation, somehow missed any actual interviews with the foot soldiers with the handycams on their shoulders. The whole thing stinks to hell, and part of me wishes for it all to blow up in Roger Goodell’s face.

cover_giants_champs.jpgThe Giants were a picture of team that caught fire at the perfect time. And a few key subtractions (Tiki, Shockey) made all the difference. Never mind the 40+ the Vikings hung on them late in the year. Never mind Eli Manning’s 18-53 against the Redskins at home. Never mind it all.

cover_greenmonk.jpgFor everybody who was with me on this crusade, and did the grunt work of emailing voters, compiling highlight reels of Monk’s career, and just not letting a travesty stand: thank you, and congratulations.
