CLAW MARKS - Jaguars-Texans: Will Anyone Be Watching??

Mark Reichman — Mon, 01 Dec 2008 18:47:39 +0000

I know the quality of the matchups has gone down a little since ESPN took over Monday Night, but Jags-Texans does seem like a hard sell to potential viewers. To paraphrase the promos which have been running, the tone has been” Fantasy owners, see how many touchdowns the amazing Maurice Jones-Drew can rack up” against [...]

Broncos trample Jets 34-17

Frank Mazzola — Mon, 01 Dec 2008 18:37:47 +0000

Here’s the best thing Jets fans can say about this game: “Well, at least the Patriots and the Bills also lost.” The game, held in their own backyard in the wind and rain, seemed to absolutely favor Gang Green. However, in the NFL, you have to seriously consider every team (except for the Lions) as capable [...]

Like Watching a T-Rex battle a Puppy

Ian Altenbaugh — Mon, 01 Dec 2008 17:29:56 +0000

Have you ever seen an inexplicable mismatch? A puppy dueling a T-Rex? Julia Roberts marrying Lyle Lovett? How about James Harrison versus the opposition's quarterback?

TOUGH LOSS IN BIG D

Scott Brown — Mon, 01 Dec 2008 16:25:41 +0000

The Oilers battled hard Sunday evening but came up short against the struggling Stars team losing 4-3 after a flurry of third period goals. The game, and to an extent the season can be wrapped up in two plays in last night’s game: The puck bouncing multiple times off of JDD’s head/arm/back/leg before falling into the [...]

Jon Fitch back in the UFC

Justin Barracosa — Mon, 01 Dec 2008 16:08:11 +0000

Following a crazy 24 hour period this week that seen Jon Fitch get released from his UFC contract for not signing a contract that would have given the UFC exclusive life time rights to Fitch for any video they release, the number two ranked welterweight in the world is now back in the UFC. It appears [...]

Week 13 Aftermath: Bears Lose Division Lead to Vikings

William Hillock — Mon, 01 Dec 2008 16:05:34 +0000

Well so much for a repeat of the 48-41 win from earlier this season. The Bears looked bad, just plain bad all night long as they lost this week to the division rival Minnesota Vikings 34-14. The Bears defense went back to their losing ways from 2 weeks ago, struggling all night long. For the [...]

Happy To Be Wrong

Sandy Gemmiti — Mon, 01 Dec 2008 15:30:29 +0000

The Broncos proved me wrong on Sunday. Not only did they have a chance to win this game but the Broncos went out on Sunday and smoked the Jets in New York. This football game was messy due to the weather but Cutler was outstanding and the rest of the Broncos jumped on his shoulders [...]

Does Oklahoma Deserve It?

Dave C — Mon, 01 Dec 2008 15:20:18 +0000

I’m sure glad I’m not a fan of the Texas Longhorns or the Texas Tech Red Raiders this Monday morning. Both of those teams had as much of a claim to the Big 12 South Title as the Oklahoma Sooners did and both teams can cry that the BCS did them in by ranking the Sooners [...]

Redskins Get Giant Loss At Home

Mercedes Green — Mon, 01 Dec 2008 14:53:11 +0000

It was an emotional day yesterday for all Redskin players, coaches and fans. The late Sean Taylor was inducted into the Redskin Ring Of Fame under heavy rainfall. The Redskins adorned their centre field to #21 and each player knelt and said some words. All Redskins players and coaches wore the #21 on their jerseys [...]

STAR WARS: Modano & Avery Lead Stars Over Oilers

Sandy Gemmiti — Mon, 01 Dec 2008 14:41:16 +0000

From the first minute of play on this game had the look and feel of a high scoring back and fourth game and that is exactly what we got last evening as the Stars took on the Oilers in Dallas. Thanks to another funny bounce the Stars ended up getting the W to try and [...]
