The Strikeforce Brawl is Getting a lot of National Attention

Wednesday, April 21st, 2010

It looked like Strikeforce was having a very good night on Saturday with their free card on CBS.  The card itself was exciting, it was a fight card that was loaded with some tremendous names and compelling fights, and it was capped off by the under-publicized Jake Shields picking himself ...

Ted Ginn Jr. Has A Clean Slate In San Francisco

Wednesday, April 21st, 2010

To make room for the recently acquired Brandon Marshall, the Dolphins traded away Ted Ginn Jr. to the 49ers for a fifth-round draft pick in tomorrow’s draft.  Three years in Miami was enough for the franchise to decide that Ginn Jr. was expendable after he never materialized into what they ...

Ricky Williams Runs “Full Circle”

Wednesday, April 21st, 2010

Ricky Williams seemed to have everything as a Heisman Trophy winning running back whose NFL coach traded the future of the franchise to get him (which landed him on the cover of Sports Illustrated and ESPN The Magazine), whose agent was a platinum-recording hip hop star, and who won the ...

Gerald McCoy Enjoyed The Pre-Draft Process, But Is Eager To Get Back On The Field

Wednesday, April 21st, 2010

There may not be any better guys in this year's crop of NFL draftees than Oklahoma's Gerald McCoy and Sam Bradford. They both graduated early, have interests outside of the game of football, and oh yeah, they're pretty good football players. Both should be gone by the first five picks, ...

Dirk Nowitzki Thinks This is His Best Team Yet… And Don Nelson Sits in Hot Tubs with Dogs

Wednesday, April 21st, 2010

When Dirk Nowitzki burst onto the scene around the turn of the century as a seven-footer from Europe who was a fluid athlete with unlimited range, many thought he had revolutionized the game. Blame Darko or just awe in the impressive gap between Dirk and everyone else, but the league ...
