Another year….another group of college QBs pining for the NFL. Of course, looking for a stud fantasy NFL QB fresh from the college ranks is like Pamela Anderson (right, Icon SMI) winning an Oscar…it ain’t gonna happen.

True story.
Years and years (and years) ago my team was at a soccer tournament one sweet, summer day. As we would train and prepare for the next game, our coach would always tells us, “get as close as you can to the other team! Anything you find out about them can only help us”!

Count me in as one of those former average athletes now turned fan of sports who just loves a good old fashioned butt kicking.
Professional athletes shouldn’t complain about teams who run up the score on them. They should do something about it. This is professional sports; not some house league where everyone gets a ribbon [...]

Remember the scene in The Simpsons where Kirk Van Houten attempted to draw “dignity” in a game of Pictionary?
That’s who I think of when I hear about how many times owner of the Atlanta Falcons Arthur Blank is bent over and lied to.

Every once in a while a sporting moment takes place that leaves a smile on your face. Personally, two moments - make that four - stand out. Marco Tardelli’s goal for Italy over Germany and subsequent celebration in the final at the 1982 World Cup, Mario Lemieux’s winning goal for Canada against the godless Soviets [...]
