He’s a man of faith and a great competitor, if not as vocal as Tebow. I also like Tim Tebow a lot. Did he get a raw deal from Denver? How? When you take that much money for season tickets and seat licenses, etc. a team owner HAS [...] Could Major League Baseball be an all Designated Hitter sport within a few years?

That’s the only explanation for a man who nearly died when he was stabbed with a golf club during a golf course brawl. From The Fort Worth Star-Telegram: One man was stabbed with a golf club shaft after a brawl broke out when [...] To ensure domestic tranquility, not to mention Belichick/Brady envy mixed with disdain (please lighten up, Francises!), it’s a “Go, Giants!” kinda day. Still, considering the potential bump to recruiting it’ll do to have Penn State Head Coach Bill O’Brien as Super Bowl Champion Offensive Coordinator on his resume, won’t be too heartbroken if the [...] Share on Facebook The Feds have dropped their doping investigation against Lance Armstrong. http://yhoo.it/wEM7io I’m of two minds on both the man and the case. I firmly believe in the presumption of innocence and know that many of his accusers are liars, rent-seekers, or both. He’s also not given a dirty test. How do I know? The [...]

Yankees: Of course. 4. [...] Both games should be good today… the Giants have a real good shot to beat the Packers if the Pack defense doesn’t show up.

Nothing but a Lombardi Trophy will erase the knowledge that Mike [...] Broncos and Patriots play tonight preceded by the 49ers and Saints.
