Posted Wednesday June 19, 2013, About: Manziel nearly transferred before '12 season
Suspended for being in a bar? In Texas? Where the drinking age is 21, and Manziel was under 21 before the 2012 season. And he was suspended for that? Oh, the madness. CFL, here he comes.

Transfer? Well, in a little less than a year, he gets to "transfer" to the Canadian Football League.
Posted Tuesday June 18, 2013, About: Is Johnny Manziel an elite NFL prospect?
Also, the best player in college football plays defense for South Carolina. Jadeveon Clowney. maybe you've heard of him?
Posted Tuesday June 18, 2013, About: Is Johnny Manziel an elite NFL prospect?
I've been saying that about Manziel since the end of the season. He does not have an athletic body, and simply does not project well to the NFL. He appears to be bound for the CFL. Yes, Canada.
Posted Monday June 17, 2013, About: Carroll burying hatchet with Harbaugh?
These two guys bury the hatchet? Uh, no. They face each other twice a year, plus the possibility of facing each other a third time in the playoffs. There were allegations of Steroid use in Seattle. Each team is young, athletic and on the rise. Neither coach has that "forgive and forget" type of thinking. Each will put the screws to the other every chance they get. Is there anything about either coach that indicates that hatchet burying is something they do? No. These two coaches are certainly enemies and their games when they face each other in 2013 (and beyond) will reflect that.
Posted Sunday June 16, 2013, About: Why Cavs aren't sure about Nerlens Noel at No. 1
6-11 and 206 lbs. reminds me of Manute Bol. Or Shawn Bradley. At least half of NBA guards weigh more than 206. Every good forward of center weighs much more. Every strong forward will have an easy time pushing Nerlens out of the way on every play. What is Nerlens going to do? Convert to SG? No. He needs to gain at least 30 lbs. Probably more.

Just draft Otto Porter, and your problem is solved!
Posted Saturday June 15, 2013, About: 'Over-exuberant' high five injures Rangers slugger
Maybe the idiotic high fives that miss the mark and are clearly too hard should be toned down. You drive a car, but do you always drive your car as fast as it will go? All the time? Of course you don't. It's called being intelligent and reasonable.
Posted Saturday June 15, 2013, About: 'Over-exuberant' high five injures Rangers slugger
So, they celebrate too hard. Maybe they should tone it down a bit. The loss of Kendris Morales was a killer for him. He lost almost two years of his prime. Why? Because he landed too hard on home plate after a walk off HR. Why do that?
The Rangers guy? Because one of his teammates can't find the "sweet spot" for a high five, missed and sprained the guy's thumb. How idiotic is that? It's very idiotic. Tone down the slapping. It's not necessary and looks idiotic. Note also that the Rangers are behind the A's in their playoff race, and will NEED every slugger they have. Getting one injured to a high five is idiotic and comically pitiful. It has nothing to do with a player's toughness either. It's simply a high five that was too hard and missed the mark. Everyone knows you don't high five a thumb. What kind of tool does that?
Posted Friday June 14, 2013, About: Wallace turned down $76M from Vikings
A Queen hater? Careful. Queen was a great rock and roll band. They had one of the best front men ever. (Regardless of his sexuality, not that it matters). Oh, the Minnesota Vikings, you call the Vi Queens? They are awesome. They have one of the best players in the NFL in Adrian Peterson, known as AD. Note that there is NO AP.
All Day.
Posted Friday June 14, 2013, About: Wallace turned down $76M from Vikings
See if I got this straight: He turned down $76 Million so he could sign for $55 Million? No. I have to call (a whole lot of) BS on that one.
Posted Friday June 14, 2013, About: Wolves ready to deal Williams for high pick?
Or Jordan.
Posted Friday June 14, 2013, About: Wolves ready to deal Williams for high pick?
Oh, I've heard that MJ has a few issues when valuing players. And the Bobcats have the 4th pick.
Posted Friday June 14, 2013, About: Wolves ready to deal Williams for high pick?
I don't know. Are the T Wolves about to trade Williams for a draft pick? Unusual "journalism". No facts, no insight, just a question. Why it should be published is anyone's guess. Also, who cares? It's the T Wolves. They play in Minnesota and are irrelevant.
You've been far below expectations for the Chargers when they traded up in the first round in order to select you.
Posted Thursday June 13, 2013, About: Signs of trouble for Puig
Does that include batters hit in the face?
Posted Thursday June 13, 2013, About: Signs of trouble for Puig
I'm John. Who is Gladys?
Posted Thursday June 13, 2013, About: Signs of trouble for Puig
So, he accidentally hit him in the nose? Seriously? Uh, no.
Posted Thursday June 13, 2013, About: Signs of trouble for Puig
This has nothing to do with whether or not I enjoy Cuban cigars, which I do! Also, I'm 100% American, but you need to consider the circumstances and stop being such a tool.
Posted Thursday June 13, 2013, About: Signs of trouble for Puig
He got his nose thrown at, intentionally by the D Back pitcher, and people are criticizing Puig? Come back to reality folks. The D Back pitcher should be suspended for a minimum of 15 - 20 games (pitchers pitch every 4-5 games so it would be a loss of 3-5 games for the D Back pitcher, which is CERTAINLY warranted). Puig's actions were absolutely acceptable considering the circumstances.
Posted Thursday June 13, 2013, About: Signs of trouble for Puig
"He should follow the orders of his superiors. YOU CANNOT BE SERIOUS. He was disobeying Cuban authority. Most people would say that he has AN OBLIGATION to disobey Cuban authority.
