Posted Tuesday December 02, 2008, About: Trouble brewing in Phoenix?
It now appears that Mike D'Antoni got the most out of a team that had so many holes. Nash on the defensive end, Amare on the half-court set, and Matrix when playing with someone not named Steve Nash. Mike D fit the pieces together to optimize these talents and came pretty damn close to the brass ring. Now we get to watch Superman in the middle succumb to his personal form of kryptonite every night.
Posted Tuesday December 02, 2008, About: Several teams interested in Marbury
There are no parallels between Randy Moss and Starbury. Starbury is a QB who likes to pass to himself. Also, Moss may have a little bit of an ego problem but has been successful (other the Oakland-ugh) wherever he has played. The opposite is true of Marbury. Teams get worse when he comes and better when he leaves
Posted Monday December 01, 2008, About: Marbury rips teammates, coach on way out
For those who think Marbury is being victimized and that he is a quality ballplayer, you need to look at more than just the numbers. He has made every team he has played for worse. Then he becomes a discontented complainer. All the while he puts up numbers--because that's his game. It's all about his numbers. The history of the NBA has dozens of players like Starbury. He can score, he can penetrate, but he can't win. And he won't come off the bench as a role player for a good team because he needs the ball and he needs to be the star.

How can anyone who lives in Cleveland boo anyone? the dawg pound is aptly named.

Foxhole? How dare he compare his sniveling tantrum to service to one's country in combat. Cowardly dog.

Wow--Crowder looked a little punk running away from Light (although that's the smart play when you have your hat off).

We need more Irish guys from the city!!! Is Kevin Loughery still available? What about the Mcguire brothers?
Posted Monday November 24, 2008, About: Teams tired of Garnett's bullying
My take on Garnett--tremendous talent and he brings it every night. but a little insecure. Has never wanted the ball in crunch time, so he's lucky he has Pierce now. This enforcer thing against point guards shows weakness to me.
Posted Monday November 24, 2008, About: Toomer's last year with Giants?
You don't let a guy who can make the big catch in the critical moment of a key game walk unless you have someone you know will take his place. So far, only Smith has shown that among the young WRs.
Posted Monday November 24, 2008, About: Official: NFL games are not fixed
Fact: NFL officials collectively make hundreds of decisions per game--several on each play--was that a hold, too much contact on the receiver, etc. Of those decisions, some percentage are very close judgment calls that can go either way. Of those close calls, some turn out in hindsight and with the benefit of endless replays to be wrong. Statistically, and because the refs are human, every contest will ghave a wrong call or 2. You hope it doesnt affect the outcome (or the betting line), but sometimes it does. When that happens, everyone screams "Fix". The reality is blown calls are part of the game. Always have been. At every level and in every sport.
Posted Monday November 24, 2008, About: Eagles looking to Kolb in 2009
You can't judge either Kolb or McNabb off of yesterday. McNabb needs a change of scenery--wherever he plays next year I predict he will put up All-Pro numbers again (if he stays healthy). Philly season is over/relationship with McNabb is toast, so why not play Kolb---not every team has an Ed Reed.
Posted Thursday November 20, 2008, About: Knick questions Celtics' toughness
Q Rich--if you werent playing in the NBA no one would care what you say or do or how tough you think you are. Oh yeah, no one cares anyway. here's the way it is in every neighborhood: if you win, you get to woof. if you lose, you shut up.
Posted Friday November 14, 2008, About: Vick plans on NFL return
Prediction: Vick makes it back and has a long career as a good but not great QB--which is what he was before. He was the most over-rated player in the NFL before. With those expectations gone and with the right team, I think he will be fine (but not great).
Posted Friday November 14, 2008, About: Vince Young's attitude in question
This seems a lot like Shockey's attitude with the Giants last year. Big star with bigger ego goes to the bench and sulks because his team goes all the way without him (how dare they). Even though Shockey couldnt play, he was still jealous and resentful. Must be worse for VY as everyone knows he is a "DNP--Coaches decision". Giant's solution--ship him out. Not so easy for Titans since Collins is on his last legs regardless of how this season turns out, but it would seem that a change in scenery is likely here. Ttians seem to have quite a few parallels with last year's NYG--a good omen for them.
Posted Monday November 10, 2008, About: Saints benching Shockey?
K. Boss can catch the ball, especially down tight in the red zone, but I was worried about how the NYG would replace Shockey's run blocking. Enter "Madison Hedgecock"--according to John Madden the best FB in the league. In a league that doesnt feature the FB position that's not saying much but he sure looked good last night pushing Igles around and moving the pile. No one talks about Shockey anymore.
Posted Monday November 10, 2008, About: The NFL's worst cornerback is...
With no other position do pro-bowlers go from hero to zero so quickly. There is tremendous turnover year to year at the CB position? Is it a young man's position? Is it the mental strain of going against media-star WRs week after week that burns them out?
Posted Friday November 07, 2008, About: Why D'Antonio won't give in to Marbury
If Starbury wants the full $22MM, let him earn it by sitting on the bench and learning humility. If he wants to salvage his career and move on, take the buyout. It's a simple economic choice.
Posted Monday November 03, 2008, About: Did Marshall quit on Broncos?
What Marshall allegedly did (I didnt see this game) is all too common among WRs in the NFL. There seem to be so many times when a WR gives up on a route or trudges though the motions because he isnt the primary target and they never get called out for it. Those WRs who keep a play alive by continuing to move and to find an open space are deservedly praised by announcers but no one seems to comment on the "going through the motions "types.
Posted Thursday October 30, 2008, About: Plaxico confesses: 'I am human'
Plax has turned the corner on this--at least for this season--so time to move on. It's no longer a news item. It's time to focus on humiliating the Cowgirls.
Posted Wednesday October 22, 2008, About: Knicks' Curry in D'Antoni's doghouse
Eddy has talent and is good around the hoop when he is motivated. The answer for him would be a one year contract. Of course it's too late for that.
