It would be a surprise to nobody if I were to say that Phil Kessel is a great hockey player, but it might shock you to know just how great he really has been this season for the Toronto Maple Leafs.
The 22-year-old sniper has been at his goal-scoring best of late, scoring five goals in his last five games with 28 on the season. He's the Leafs leading scorer by ...

Adam Schefter has reported on his Insider blog that the Denver Broncos have had informal discussions about signing center Kevin Mawae.
The need is there from when Casey Wiegmann went back to the Kansas City Chiefs after his one year stint; it would be a fairly seamless transition from Wiegmann (36), to Mawae, (39).
Despite being 39 Mawae can still perform at a ...

The NHL's Western Conference standings have been all over the map this year, with even the Kings in first place at one point, but if I were to travel back to September and show any hockey pundit today's standings, they would no doubt believe that I took over as league commissioner before what is posted below:

Players are always listed too high for the amount of use they will get, whether you realize it or not.
Sometimes a player jumps up the list even though they had a serious injury during the season. Often they are a name frequently used that are actually not that good of a player that got a huge salary.

Mock Draft Fan’s Picks Round Two: Cleveland Pick No. 38
Posted: 22nd March 2010 by Daniel Krem in NFL
Alright B/R fans you asked for it so here it is: round two of our Fan Draft. Round one was a success and we’ll expect nothing less this time around.

The same rules apply, and we’ll leave ...

1. The San Francisco 49ers will win the NFC West in 2010.
The Seattle Seahawks and St. Louis Rams are in full rebuilding mode (again), ...

In the comments section though, I realized some negative feedback arose because some of the talent wasn't entirely high class, and some of the players weren't all that great (ie: #10 was Mark Madsen).
So now I've created this ...
