Tiger Woods’ comeback continues to be a thing of utter amazement, as he nearly got back into the winner’s circle Sunday at the Valspar – on a course he rarely plays on tour to boot! What I want to know, is why can’t he pull the trigger on a big driver when he’s essentially playing […] Read more
Tell me if you’ve heard this one before…. “let’s get a boycott of the NCAA Final Four going… that’ll show ’em!” I know I’ve heard it before. You spend 28 years hosting sports radio shows, you hear all kinds of things, and what Jay Williams of ESPN (along with Jalen Rose) is suggesting is nothing […] Read more
Boy, does Johnny Manziel have a deal for you! How about you, sign him, to a practice squad contract…. and he’ll play for NO MONEY DOWN! Huh? Bargain, AMIRITE? While I admire Johnny’s frantic desire to get back into the league, it doesn’t make it any less desperate than his bookend washout RG3. Griffin had […] Read more
Lamar Jackson looks like he’ll be the most interesting, polarizing, and hot-take generating player in this year’s NFL Draft. He’s already generated a kerfuffle over a Bill Polian suggestion that he should transition to wide receiver. Also, Jackson says he’s going to have his mom – yep, his mom! – serve as his “agent” during […] Read more

Thamel says perhaps 30+ programs will be touched, Hall of Fame coaches may […] Read more
Comeback stories are the best. They are the essence of sports. Who doesn’t like a good comeback? We’re about to find out if Johnny Manziel has what it takes to crawl out from the wreckage of one of the biggest crash-and-burn flameouts in sports history. From college superstar diva and first round pick, to a […] Read more
Shawn White had a magical moment at the Olympics last night, but of course the dirty laundry of his rock band past just had to get dumped out on the floor. In today’s CzabeCast I discuss why things like #metoo is not just a worthy movement, but it’s also valuable programming for networks, and irresistible […] Read more

And I need my $1,000 from Al Galdi, that weasel! Just kidding! As some may remember, I once bet my former afternoon drive co-host “One-Thousand-Dollars” that when Griffin left the Skins, another team would sign him to a deal of at least $10M in guaranteed money.
