This Just in: the Pro Bowl Sucks
Posted by klownboy in NFL, sports blogging on January 30, 2012
Wow, talk about an exciting all-star game. It was so exciting, I didn’t even bother to tune into the game. Let’s face it folks, the Pro Bowl sucks. The fans know it. The players know it (which is why some guys do not bother making the trip). And most importantly, the commissioner knows it. NFL […]
Coaching Is not Knicks’ Only Problem
Posted by klownboy in NBA, sports blogging on January 27, 2012
Sigh. This was supposed to be the breakout year for my New York Knicks. They were supposed to come together, knock off the Celtics and take home the Atlantic Division title – hell, I predicted so! The Knicks were supposed to make some serious noise in the playoffs. Instead, the Knicks are floundering with a […]
Hey Federer Fans, Where Are You Now?
Posted by klownboy in sports blogging, tennis on January 26, 2012
Another major, another loss for Roger Federer. Federer lost in four sets to my man Rafael Nadal 6-7, 6-2, 7-6, 6-4 in an Australian Open semifinal on Thursday night. As Federer was again dominated by an arch-rival, I have one thing to say… I am so, SO very sick and tired of the talk of […]
Goodell Should not Have Received ANY Extension
Posted by klownboy in NFL, sports blogging on January 26, 2012
NFL Commissioner/warden/playa hater Roger Goodell received a contract extension that will run through 2018. Needless to say I am not too happy about this move. This is a man who presided over the first work stoppage in the NFL in over 20 years this past offseason. This is the same dude who is trying to […]
Peyton Will not Be a Colt
Posted by klownboy in NFL, sports blogging on January 25, 2012
Easy one to figure out right? I mean, not only Peyton Manning is coming off a few neck surgeries that he is STILL not 100% on, but the Indianapolis Colts practically fired his entire support system. Gone are the Polians (vice president Bill and general manager Chris), and the head coach in addition to the […]
Fielder Signing Makes Tigers Team to Beat
Posted by klownboy in baseball, MLB, sports blogging on January 25, 2012
When the Detroit Tigers signed masher Prince Fielder to a 9-year $214 million contract yesterday, they sent a message to the New York Yankees, Boston Red Sox and the rest of the elite in the American League. We are the team to beat. With the addition of Fielder, the Tigers now have the best pitcher […]
Ravens and 49ers Gave Their Games Away
Posted by klownboy in NFL, sports blogging on January 23, 2012
The Baltimore Ravens and San Francisco 49ers lost their respective games in the worst possible way: they both outplayed their opponents. Let’s start with the first game. The Ravens lost to the New England Patriots 23-20, thanks to a missed kick by their normally reliable kicker Billy Cundiff in the last few seconds of the […]
Paterno Legacy Unclear
Posted by klownboy in college football, sports blogging on January 23, 2012
The legendary, famous – or depending who you talk to, “infamous” – Penn State football coach Joe Paterno died over the weekend at age 85 from complications from lung cancer. This is sad for a variety of reasons. First, his death comes on the heels of a sex abuse scandal that drug Paterno’s previous good […]
2012 NFL Conference Championship Preview
Posted by klownboy in NFL, sports blogging on January 20, 2012
Baltimore Ravens at New England Patriots. This is a classic game of the immovable object (Ravens) and the unstoppable force (Patriots). You gotta love the best defense vs. best offense encounters. That said, the Ravens are not going to be able to hang with the Pats. Sure the Ravens are not intimidated, and they do […]
Best Sports Rants Ever…
Posted by klownboy in sports blogging on January 19, 2012
I was at a restaurant eating lunch today, and I noticed actor Cuba Gooding, Jr. imitating athletes in their most famous (or infamous) rants. This had me thinking, just which athlete delivered the best sports rants EVER? Here are the combatants 1) Terrell Owens (or as Jim Rome calls him “TWO”) crying over the rough […]
