Richie Incognito Signs with Miami: Are Buffalo Bills Sure on OG Eric Wood?
Posted: 20th March 2010 by Robert Quinn in NFL
When the Bills signed guard Richie Incognito to start the last three games of the regular season after rookie Eric Wood went down, his play led Buffalo fans to believe that he would be back for the 2010 season.
The Bills' front office has been rather quiet regarding Wood's injury, but his return at the beginning of the season is very questionable.
Incognito was a restricted free agent this offseason, ...
In relation to my previous article , it appears that Cam Neely would agree with me in saying that the dictionary's definition of "heartless" will read "Boston Bruins' March 18th 2010". And for that matter, their entire 2009/2010 season.
Shawn Thornton took on Matt Cooke 1:58 into the first period to get "revenge" for the season-ending hit Cooke delivered to Marc Savard on March 7th. And as the game went on, ...
Carolina Hurricanes Moving Forward: Defense Showing Potential
Posted: 20th March 2010 by Mark Jones in NHL
With the Carolina Hurricanes' season winding down and playoffs all but out of the question, it's time for the 'Canes organization and followers to begin looking forward.
The Hurricanes have already shown that it is what they want to do. Several trade deadline moves back in early March that rid the Hurricanes of four players 31 or older and the acquisition of three prospects and seven draft picks in return are sure signs ...
After Thursday's 3-0 beat down at the hands of the Pittsburgh Penguins, a lot of Bruins fans jumped from the bandwagon...some for good. It was the most hyped Bruins game of the season, rivaling even the Winter Classic. Tickets were being scalped for twice as much as a Celtics-Cavaliers and even Celtics-Lakers games. With Bruins fever in the air once again, it seemed that the black and ...
From Draft Picks to Pacman: For 49ers, It’s All about Mike Singletary Now
Posted: 20th March 2010 by Ted Sillanpaa in NFL
The four most discussed topics among 49ers fans all tie directly to head coach Mike Singletary:
1. Without a collective bargaining agreement in place for 2011, there's no way to be certain there will be games in 2011. The 49ers aren't likely to bring in a general manager to replace Scot McCloughan, and then pay the new guy for doing nothing in 2011.
The bulk of the preparation for the upcoming ...
Tom Brady's noticeable absence from offseason voluntary workouts has sparked more than a few conversations on sports radio throughout New England over the past week. But according to reports out of southern California, there's really no reason to worry.
While one article has Brady throwing a football around at USC's complex, another shows Tom throwing punches in a California boxing gym. It's clear whether in the ring or on the field, Brady's thinking ...
Cardinals Show Joey Porter Love, So Why the Cold Shoulder for Dansby?
Posted: 20th March 2010 by Michael Pinto in NFL
The Arizona Cardinals and free agent linebacker Joey Porter agreed to terms on a three-year, $17.5 million contract that could be worth as much as $24.5 million if all incentives are reached.
Porter was released by the Miami Dolphins on March 5 for numerous reasons, most notably his declining performance and terrible attitude.
Lets face it, at 33-years-old, Porter's best years are a ways back in the rear-view mirror. He's slowed down ...
NHL Picks for March 20th, 2010: Who Will Pull out the Big Upset Tonight?
Posted: 20th March 2010 by Shane House in NHL
Last Night's Record : 3-1 Record for the week : 12-5 Last night was quite an interesting night. Two of my picks came back in the third and once again almost had a perfect night if not for Devan Dubnyk and his first win. Anyways, here are my picks for tonight's games: St. Louis Blues at New Jersey Devils New Jersey is fighting Pittsburgh right ...
Scott Pioli has eight picks within the first five rounds. That many picks combined with his football acumen and track record of assembling talent means the Chiefs could be one of the surprise teams in 2010.
He’s also orchestrated a promising coaching staff with Romeo Crennel and Charlie Weis as defensive and offensive coordinators, respectively.
Key signings this offseason have afforded the Chiefs even greater flexibility on how to utilize ...
There has and is still controversy now since the San Diego Chargers hired Norv Turner. There's even a website that wants Norv Turner fired. Sure, he is no Vince Lombardi but he's close to a snubbed coach that belongs to the Hall of Fame. But if there's any other coach I want to pick as my head coach it would be Norv Turner, even better than Bill Belichick.
He's gone under ...
