Posted Wednesday November 19, 2008, About: Knick questions Celtics' toughness
Q was overrated in college. Q is overrated as a pro. The best thing he's done to date is that antennae thing with Darius Miles. And getting stupid quotes like this published in the paper is only going to make the trash worse, because he sounds like a whiny little girl. I grow tired of all the trash talk in the NBA, but it's 10 times worse when it comes from someone who has never done a thing worthy of notice in his pro career.

I'm more tired of all of these millionaires trying to pretend they are still from "da hood". I know many of these guys grew up in rough conditions that I could never identify with, but c'mon....you can afford 3 or 4 Mercedes or BMW's or whatever and you live in a huge house with a personal chef and hire an entourage of people catering to your every whim. You may have grown up "hard", but you're far from it now, my friend.
Posted Monday October 27, 2008, About: Cubs eyeing Padres' Gonzalez?
I would hate to see this trade happen. AG is one of my favorite players, and the Cubs are one of my least favorite teams. Plus, the Cubs would just ruin Peavy's career.
Posted Wednesday September 10, 2008, About: Schilling rips Jets fans
Yeah, well, Schilling is still fat, old, ugly and injured.
Posted Tuesday August 05, 2008, About: Red Bulls chasing Henry?
I think Henry would be quite successful in the MLS. He is not the household name that Beckham is, but I think his game would translate much more into a more American sensibility (in other words, he'll score lots of goals).
Posted Friday August 01, 2008, About: Pierce: I'm world's best player
Non-story, probably taken out of context, and oh, shocker -- the story was printed in the Orange County Register. Still a little bitter about your team not showing up for the finals?
Posted Monday July 28, 2008, About: Man U. now targeting Henry?
One of my favorite players playing for my least favorite team. Hope that doesn't happen. I'd rather see him come to the MLS (preferrably for the Fire, but doubt that will happen).
Posted Wednesday July 23, 2008, About: NFL QB upsets Buckeyes fans
Ummm, people in Ohio realize that Palmer played for USC, right? Who else would he cheer for? Of all the things to worry about with the Bengals, such as the fact that half their team is on the Cinci PD's most wanted list, this is a head-scratcher.
Posted Wednesday June 25, 2008, About: Carter rips Steinbrenner, Girardi
Can we get Jerry Manuel to compare Gary Carter to fertilizer? -- of course that's not taking it nearly far enough....
Posted Tuesday June 17, 2008, About: Mendenhall rips Illinois' Zook
Sad to hear the quote, because everything I've read suggests that Mendenhall is a class act. But there's friction in even the best of circumstances. Zook shows his class with his response. How did the people in FLA let this guy go?
Posted Tuesday June 10, 2008, About: Source: Clemens took Viagra
Funny, but who cares anymore. The legend is tarnished beyond repair at this point.
Posted Friday May 09, 2008, About: Indians ticked off at Joba's histrionics
Question: If Joba pitched somewhere other than the Bronx (or Boston for that matter...), would anyone notice if he pumped his fist?

Answer: Of course not.

This is a non-story. I'd hate it if I were an Indians fan right now, but I hate Dellucci for homering off Joba the other day. So whatever.
Posted Friday April 04, 2008, About: New coach won't affect Gordon
This won't affect Gordon's decision because his decision was made the day he heard he was a projected top 10 pick. 'Nuff said.
Posted Friday April 04, 2008, About: CBS's Billy Packer calling it quits?
The best thing that could possibly happen to televised college basketball would be for this pompous, self-obsessed, east coast biased windbag to call it a career. The only thing I like about Billy Packer is that it keeps Jim Nantz quiet for at least 15% of the broadcast. Good riddance if he goes.
Posted Friday March 07, 2008, About: Farnsworth blames Torre for woes
This would mean more if Farnsworth had been lights out in all of his other stops, where he supposedly had the manager's full support. He is that guy who's talent makes your mouth water and his 2 cent head makes you wonder how he makes it through each day.
Posted Friday February 29, 2008, About: Cubs fans rebel against Zell
What's the big deal? You think fans who knew it as Cubs Park back in 1926 threw a fit because the rich guy who sold chewing gum wanted to put his family and corporate name on the field?

And the ownership has raised ticket prices every year for the 12 that I've lived in the Chicago area, and they are still looking for ways to make more money, so why would that work?

Yes it will sound strange, but that atmosphere is what makes the place great, and naming rights won't change that unless you let it.
Posted Monday January 28, 2008, About: Steinbrenner defends Yankees' titles
A couple things we all have to keep in mind, here. First off, regardless of how obnoxiously it was said, we all know he's basically right. The Mitchell report is based primarily on testimony from guys who were clubhouse attendants for the two NY teams. So, yeah, players from those teams dominate the report. But anyone stupid enough to believe your favorite player from the era is 100% clean because his name didn't show up hasn't been paying attention the last couple of years.

Secondly, I wish Hank would shut up, because as a Yankees fan, I cringe every time I see a quote. But, its important to realize that very few comments in "news" articles are the result of the interviewee's ramblings and usually follow being asked a question. So if Hank is asked "Do you think the Mitchell report tarnishes the Yankee's titles from '96 to 2000?" of course he's going to fire back with what gets printed.

I tend to disagree with most Red Sox fans, but read Bill Simmons column in the latest ESPN magazine. His take on the steroid stuff and what it really means to us makes a lot of sense.
Posted Wednesday December 19, 2007, About: Liverpool to face MLS All-Stars?
Wasn't it Celtic who played the All Stars this past year? I don't follow them enough to know if they brought all their stars or not, but I recognized a few names. If I recall, the MLS team won.
Posted Friday November 02, 2007, About: Jeter mum on A-Rod return
You know Jeter's glad to be done with the ARod circus. He has never seemed comfortable with having the guy around, and no matter what tension exists between the two, it ultimately boils down to the fact that Jeter's first worry is winning, while ARod's is looking good for the cameras. I believe that's the biggest reason for the icy relationship between the two while ARod was in pinstripes.
Posted Thursday November 01, 2007, About: Boras blames Rivera for A-Rod's woes
I guess since he's already taken his shots at Jeter, he has to go for plan B? Seriously, someone sign him soon, because I'm getting real tired of the Alex and Scotty show.
Posted Wednesday October 10, 2007, About: Reporter cries over Yankees loss
Love the Yankees. Love John Sterling's home run call. Almost consider tuning in the visiting team's radio broadcast on mlb.com instead of listening to Waldman. Every since the "Oh my goodness gracious" stuff when Rocket came back, just get annoyed.
Posted Tuesday October 09, 2007, About: La Russa in line for Yanks job
The one thing I like about La Russa is that it probably means Dave Duncan as the pitching coach (someone else pointed that out, and I hadn't thought of that). That might mean a return to the days of getting more out of starter than you can reasonably expect....like Duncan did with Weaver or Stottlemyre did with Jimmy Key years ago.

But watching La Russa deal with the St. Louis media this past year makes me wonder just how long it would take for his head to explode in NY. The success of the Torre era has made the media moster bigger than ever.
