Posted: 26th September 2009 by Erin McLaughlin in NFL
The current state of the Cleveland Browns is an ugly one at that. This team is 0-2 and the mighty Ravens are coming to town. Off the field, there is turmoil too.

Plea to The Eagles: Keep Vick On The Leash This Week
Posted: 26th September 2009 by Lou DiPietro in NFL
ItÆs a proverb we all know: If it ainÆt broke, donÆt fix it.
In the Eagles case, it should go something like this: If itÆs broke, wait until itÆs fixed to remodel it.
The ôitö of course is the Eagles offense, and the remodel is one Mr. Michael Vick.
And as un-patriotic as this might sound to Eagles fans, itÆs my estimation that there is absolutely no reason for Michael Vick to see ...

Now that the Mets have accepted the fact that their 2009 season is all but over they are looking to rebuild their roster with hopes of returning to the post season. Over the past year we have seen them add names such as Pat Misch and Lance Broadway to help bring some youth to their beleaguered farm system.
Today the Mets continued this trend by picking up pitcher Jack Egbert off ...
IÆve spent hours looking for the right word.
ôAudacity?ö
ôBrashness?ö
ôArrogance?ö
All three words speak to a shameless sense of boldness, which would describe Raiders PR man John Herreraàif any of his childish actions were actually ôbold.ö
