NFL Week 9 Status Report: The Future Is Now
Smokey: This morning I was sent an email entitled “A Tale of 2 QBs” simply showing how eerily similar the stats are for Jake Delhomme and Matt Stafford this season. And it’s true, they are remarkably close in several categories. I jokingly responded by predicting the Panthers would get him in three years, a la [...]
Ten Steps To A Redskins Recovery
Today was the first in quite a while that I didn’t throw on my typical Clinton Portis #26 Washington Redskins jersey early Sunday morning and stay within eyeshot of the TV for an entire afternoon.

Why Isn’t Cliff Lee Starting Tonight
While I was not entirely enthused about the World Series prior to Game 1, I have been pleasantly surprised early on with a fairly entertaining series. Game 1 provided a superb pitching matchup between Cliff Lee and CC Sabathia. Game 2 also provided a great pitcher’s duel, with Pedro and AJ Burnett going at it. [...]
