Peyton Manning, Co-GM of the Colts

Monday, April 27th, 2009

Bill Polian is a smart man.  He knows how important it is to keep your best player happy.  Especially with a new head coach with no NFL head coaching experience in Jim Caldwell.  I know there's a reason the word mock is in mock drafts, but there isn't one mock ...

Darrius Heyward-Bey After Being The Top WR Chosen In The 2009 NFL Draft

Monday, April 27th, 2009

Well, grades are being handed out for the 2009 NFL Draft by just about every major media outlet and sports blog. The one team that everyone agrees upon for having the worst draft this past weekend? Yup, you guessed it - Al Davis' Oakland Raiders. With Michael Crabtree and Jeremy ...

This Song Says The Suns Run Is Over

Monday, April 27th, 2009

It's sad to think that the Gorilla may be the best part of the Suns these days.  I've written it many times here on this site that the Suns made a tremendous mistake trading for Shaquille O'Neal.  I also felt like letting Mike D'Antoni walk and replacing him with Terry ...

Can Matthew Stafford Make The Lions Better?

Monday, April 27th, 2009

Matt Stafford just got paid!  Lost in all the hubbub of being taken number one overall was the fact that he received $41.7 million guaranteed dollars with the contract rising up to as much as $78 million.  Another amazing thing about this draft were the talks that if Stafford wasn't ...

The Safest Pick In The Draft: Aaron Curry

Monday, April 27th, 2009

The Seattle Seahawks weren't your normal team with the fourth overall pick in the draft.  They don't have any glaring weaknesses and were a perennial playoff team until injuries, a unique coaching situation, and other intangibles caused them to implode last year.  After trading Julian Peterson, linebacker did become an ...

Tito Ortiz Is Making His Comeback

Monday, April 27th, 2009

The biggest news surrounding Tito Ortiz these days is his ongoing feud with UFC President, Dana White.  The two have never seen eye to eye and when White doesn't like someone who isn't a part of his business, you can bet he won't be doing business with him.  It isn't ...

A Quarterback’s Best Friend: Tony Gonzalez

Monday, April 27th, 2009

Tight ends to quarterbacks are what a blanket is to Linus.  They make them feel safe.  A good tight end works the middle of the field and opens up the whole offense for the quarterback.  A great tight end is too fast for a linebacker to cover and too strong ...

Kenny Perry Speaks Out About Giving the Masters Away

Monday, April 27th, 2009

Kenny Perry doesn't have a bad life at all. Dude's got a great looking wife, he plays professional golf for a living and, well, actually that's probably enough. Oh yeah. He's rich. But that's because he plays golf for a living. In other words, it's tough to feel that bad ...

John Hammond Is Not Pleased

Monday, April 27th, 2009

Bucks General Manager John Hammond may be leading on that he is unsatisfied with Milwaukee's season but inside he's got to be pretty content.  His team played much of the year without their borderline All-Star, Michael Redd, and a good chunk of center Andrew Bogut's season was taken away by ...

Natalie Gulbis, Celebrity Apprentice Outcast

Monday, April 27th, 2009

Natalie Gulbis is one of the rising stars on the LPGA, and she's particularly, um, appealing as an athlete because she's so talented. And willing to engage with fans. Yes. Talented and willing to engage with fans. She's also pretty funny, as you can see from the interview below. In it ...
