Rasputin Is Alive And Well And Advising The NY Jets
Published on 2012-03-22 20:35:00
Rasputin, often called “The Mad Monk” was a mystic, a healer and/or a prophet depending on who you asked in Russia at the turn of the 20th century. Rasputin had the ear (and some say many more body parts) of Alexandra, the wife of Russian Emperor Nicholas II as well as the Tsar and his only son, Alexei who was a hemophiliac. The Tsar considered Rasputin to be a holy man and a friend. But things got ugly for the Mad Monk during the later stages of World War I. The Russians were literally [..]

Lenny Dykstra Alias “Nails” Finally Gets Nailed. Way To Go “Dude”
Published on 2012-03-07 16:59:00
Lenny Dykstra and Art Schlichter have to be the top train wrecks in sports. The former Ohio State and Baltimore Colts quarterback was in the top six of Heisman Trophy balloting in his final three seasons and almost led the Buckeyes to the national title in 1979. As it turned out his game-losing pick by Clemson's Charlie Bauman in the 1978 Gator Bowl which led to Woody Hayes assault and next-day firing was a sign of things to come. The fourth overall pick in 1982, Schlichter had some serious [..]

Put Me Down Already. Jeremy Lin Just Isn't Enough
Published on 2012-02-27 16:53:00
I saw that last week in a loss in Miami when Lin looked like a shell shocked tourist after getting his wallet picked on the F Line to 34th street. Don't get me wrong. I like his game but I can't shake the feeling that this franchise is like the coma patient who comes back to life, does a few great things and then goes back to the land of nod. I've been a Knicks fan from the moment I saw a pass bounce off Bill Hosket's head and go into the basket during a game in Cincinnati during the early p [..]

Is Sanchez A Marked Man?
Published on 2011-12-30 18:17:00
Mark Sanchez's "New York Minute" may be up. The Jets' 29-14 loss to the Giants Christmas Eve wasn't any old loss. It was an embarrassment coming against, of all teams, their fellow MetLife Stadium tenants. And this coming just days after coach Rex Ryan said his guys were the better team over the last two years. He was right on that point. But that

Sorry Tampa, But You Don't Need The Rays
Published on 2011-07-23 19:53:00
There comes a time in life when you just have to put your foot down. I'm not talking about being like House Speaker John Boehner (that tan's gotta come out of a tube or a tanning bed) and his billionaire supporters who are against everything that doesn't include tax breaks for those with a net worth three times the GNP of Mexico. I'm talking about important stuff. Stuff like small market baseball teams. Not long ago, in the days when Americans vacationed each Thursday on Gilligan's Island and e [..]

Jose Can't You See, You're Just Not Worth It
Published on 2011-07-07 18:05:00
Is Reyes worth Carl Crawford money? No. Carl Crawford's not worth Carl Crawford money. He put on a ski mask and robbed the Red Sox out of $142 million over seven years.

Are The Mets Really Worth Just A Buck? Talk About Ripoffs!
Published on 2011-06-16 15:13:00
Bad things sure do happen when you're in a financial mess. Just ask Mets owner Fred Wilpon. His dealings with crook extraordinaire Bernie Madoff is launching him into the real world of knocking your brains out to make a crap living. How did that song go on the tv show Good Times? You know the one about a a struggling black family in Chicago in the '70's just trying to make ends meet starring Jimmy Walker? The lyrics went like this: Good Times. Any time you meet a payment. Good Times. Any tim [..]

LeBron, You Look Like You're Throwing Games on Purpose
Published on 2011-06-08 17:58:00
Yeah, it's unthinkable. The NBA's greatest player, two-time defending MVP LeBron James throwing a game. Ridiculous! Who would do such a thing? What would he have to gain? The most sought after free agent in NBA history - the guy who held sports fans (and Cavaliers owner Dan Gilbert) captive for months before letting the world know where he was taking his talents - LeBron James on the take? Isn't that something you see in some old 1940's flick during a Cubs rain out? Of course no one would be st [..]
