WilliamHillock — Fri, 21 Nov 2008 12:54:21 +0000

Hello STB! I’d just like to say a quick thank you to Mark Gage and Kevin Lee for giving me the opportunity to blog about the best team in the Southeast, and to share my thoughts over the season. I’ve been a huge fan of the Hurricanes since their inception, watching the BBC (Battaglia - [...]

Blackhawks Star in Road Win / Make Trade / Announcment Tomorrow

TerryShilton — Fri, 21 Nov 2008 06:52:43 +0000

So much for the Circus Road trip jinx, the Blackhawks have improved to 2-0 on this road swing, winning tonight primarily with offense, the Hawks were able to capitalize on the opportunities they had whereas the Stars did not. Again Khabby played great especially in the first period at one point the Stars were out [...]

Another Fictitious moment in Pittsburgh Sports History

Ian Altenbaugh — Fri, 21 Nov 2008 05:43:23 +0000

In 1980, the Pittsburgh Steelers were the toast of the NFL and a national sports icon. Their quarterback, Terry Bradshaw, was coming off of back-to-back Super Bowl MVPs and for the first time, found himself an out-and-out national celebrity. Everybody knew who he was, and all of a sudden, everyone wanted a piece of the [...]

After 2 weeks of lacklustre offense and troubling defense, the Bears look to get back into the win column against the lowely St. Louis Rams. With a win Chicago will keep pace with Minnesota and Green Bay for 1st in the NFC North (should they win as well). The Bears need this win not just [...]

Bills vs. Chiefs - Preview

Tim Anderson — Fri, 21 Nov 2008 03:31:34 +0000

Now that everyone has a had a few days to try and get over last Monday’s devastating loss to the Browns, there is more work that needs to be done. Despite my personal feeling that the Bills’ playoff hopes walked out the door as Lindell’s kick sailed wide *$#$%, mathematically speaking this team is still [...]

Quick blog

Lee Tremblay — Fri, 21 Nov 2008 00:39:01 +0000

Just a quick blog tonight, as time is not on my side these days. Just trying to keep up on my picks, and this thursday night game BS is really annoying. I hate thursday night football. Football should be on sundays and mondays, and thats it. I don’t have the time for it during the rest of [...]

Well, we know Jon Daniels isn’t sleeping on the job

Josh Lile — Thu, 20 Nov 2008 23:52:20 +0000

Jon Daniels has yet to pull the trigger on a deal to bring in pitching, but on this the day of prep for the Rule V draft, Daniels has been busy. A former bullpen candidate that insisted he was a starter, and a former 1st round pick that has never been able to capitalize on [...]
