Damn MLB, Damn Tigers: A 2012 Tale of the Tribe

  Spring Training is when hope springs eternal and everyone is a contender.  OK, let’s cut the bullshit here.  Most teams have no chance whatsoever.  As the baseball season is 162 games, the cream always rises to the top.  It’s not like the NFL, where you can catch a lucky break or two and you [...]

5 Good Reasons to Hate ‘Mike and Mike’

  As a man with a variety of rage and anger issues, I realize that it is inherently self destructive to allow a radio show to fill me with all the negative side effects of the aforementioned rage/anger.  However, there is no way even the most centered individual could listen to “Mike and Mike” on [...]

Roberto Hernandez Heredia and the 2012 “What if?” Indians

  I love that Fausto Carmona is actually Roberto Hernandez Heredia.  This is already the best Indians story of 2012.  In fact, I am so excited that I have already placed a sizeable bid on a wildly discounted Fausto Carmona jersey on eBay.  What a great way to celebrate the sad sack Indians in 2012!  [...]

Defending Mike Holmgren?

  It’s good to see Browns fans actually getting worked up about the team sucking ass since roughly before the invention of the internal combustion engine.  Normally Browns fans will not only eagerly eat their annual shit sandwich, but pay a PSL for the “privilege” of a place to sit while they are eating.  There [...]

Beating the Odds of Meaningless Bowl Games

  The College Bowl schedule is the biggest sham in sports.  Let’s see if we can follow the logic of it… All Division One teams play a full season of games.  If they lose even one, they will probably not be invited to play for the mythic National Championship.  If their record is pretty good, [...]

  With 4 hours left until the season opener tip, here’s your little more than half a day late, final day till tip off DC Show Cavs preview.   1 day till open… 1 – Byron Scott. I’m not going to hide this fact, I’ve been a Byron Scott fan my entire life. When he [...]

2 Days Till Tip Off – A DC Show Cavs Preview

  Food Poisoning, playing catch up, Santa, and 1 more day to go yet still a day behind. And if you haven’t read days 5,4 and 3 ’Till Tip Off’ before this one, a lot of what I’ll say here might make even less sense. Just Saying.   2 days till open… 1 -Samardo Samuels. At [...]

3 Days Till Tip Off – A DC Show Cavs Preview

  1 day till Cavs Tip Off and 3 days of catch-up to get done. Santa’s here and there’s 5 games to start the NBA year today, so no stalling. 3 days till open… 1 – Antawn Jamison. As stated in point 3 of “Day 4 Till”, don’t expect Antawn Jamison to be a Cavalier [...]

4 Days Till Tip Off – A DC Show Cavs Preview

  With this now being obviously late, know I do see the irony of the Defend Cleveland sports guy getting food poisoning from a Cleveland sports bar. How’s the saying go again? Give me food poisoning once, shame on you. Give it to me twice, shame on me. Give it to me a 3rd time [...]

5 Days Till Tip Off – A DC Show Cavs Preview

  There’s a lot of days in the Holiday Season. There’s the 8 days of Hanukkah, Christmas Day, the 7 days of Kwanzaa, New Years Day, and so on, and so on, and so on, and… Seemingly, this Season has more and more days each year, and thanks to a fun little wrinkle of a [...]
