Fantasy Baseball Preview 2010: Part SixùThanks for the Memories
Posted: 20th March 2010 by Sam Kline in MLB
The sixth and final part of this Fantasy Baseball Preview is a list of players who had served baseball fantasy nation admirably for the duration of their illustrious careers, but should now be permanently crossed off must-have lists due to declining skills, injury, or retirement.
If you think that any of the above-listed players are still worthwhile fantasy contributors, then the chances are that you're a big fan of ...
One Oakland Raider said ,"That's a horror show." Another starter said "don't hold your breath." These were a few quotes bandied about in the Raiders offices when quarterback JaMarcus Russell failed to show up for the first day of voluntary work-outs.He showed up the second day 11 pounds over his listed playing weight of 260, but was reportedly still in good shape. It is almost ...
2010 NFL Mock Draft: Top 15 As Seen From a Cleveland Browns Fan
Posted: 20th March 2010 by Browns Fan in NFL
The NFL Draft is nearly impossible to predict, especially in March. Today is March 20, and if the 2010 NFL Draft were to happen today, than this is how I see the first 15 picks. Obviously teams will trade and I cannot predict which trades will occur, so I'm assuming there are no trades.
1. St. Louis Rams - QB, Oklahoma, Sam Bradford
Ndamukong Suh is the best player on the board, but the first pick of ...
NFL Draft 2010: Why the St. Louis Rams Must Take Sam Bradford
Posted: 20th March 2010 by Andrew McCluskey in NFL
Six.
Sam Bradford's projected number in the NFL? No, that is the total number of wins the St. Louis Rams have over the past three seasons.
The Rams are currently in complete and utter disarray.
They once again have a top five selection in the NFL Draft after a pathetic 1-15 season. They are currently in the process of being sold, but facing difficulties due to a battle over taxes. On top of ...
Missing Persons: Has Anyone Seen New York Giants Free Agent Antonio Pierce?
Posted: 20th March 2010 by Ryan Cook in NFL
Like a forgotten soldier in war, Antonio Pierce has well and truly missed the boat.
We've seen it before in the NFL, players getting left behind in the pool of free agency while their once loyal team moves on to bigger and better things. But for Antonio Pierce, the recent departure from the New York Giants left many people gobsmacked and wondering just where and when his presence will be felt ...
Bob Clarke Continues Philadelphia Flyers Legacy in Front Office
Posted: 20th March 2010 by Alan Bass in NHL
If we could all accomplish a fraction of what Bob Clarke did in his career, I’m sure we would all be content with our lives.
"Clarkie," as he is affectionately referred to by fans and friends, was playing for the Flin Flon Bombers of the Saskatchewan Junior League and had put up impressive numbers. However, he was rarely scouted, as few teams sent scouts to Western Canada in the 1960s. Clarke ...
Portland Trail Blazers Eke Out Win Over Washington Wizards
Posted: 20th March 2010 by Busta Bucket in NBA
This isn't going to be very long tonight. What should have been a blow out turned out to be a defensively deficient, low scoring, jump shot, chuck-fest on behalf of the Portland Trail Blazers and Washington Wizards.
The Blazers barely escaped with a win on the last second buzzer beater by Brandon Roy. The Wizards have now won zero games out of their last 10. The final score: Blazers 76, ...
Will Success for Matt Cain in 2010 Be His Ticket out of San Francisco?
Posted: 20th March 2010 by Jesse Motiff in MLB
Matt Cain is a good pitcher. In fact, he's a very good pitcher. If he wasn't teammates with the defending two-time NL Cy Young award winner, Cain would be the ace of the Giants staff, and already be known as one of the top pitchers in the game.
Fortunately for Cain, he doesn't mind playing second fiddle to Lincecum. Now, he just needs his offense to give him proper run support, ...
NFL Draft 2010: Hidden Gem Armanti Edwards Could Be a Playmaker At NFL Level
Posted: 20th March 2010 by Evan Higgins in NFL
At 5'11, 187 pounds, Armanti Edwards probably won't see much action at the position he played in college football.
He was the starting quarterback at Appalachian State University, a quite decorated one I must add. He threw for a total of 10,392 yards and 74 touchdowns throughout his four-year career. He also ran for 4,361 yards and 64 rushing touchdowns.
Thats some fine stats for a guy, even if he wasn't at ...
Stat Trick: Anaheim Ducks 5, New York Islanders 4 (overtime)
Posted: 20th March 2010 by Eric Hornick in NHL
Saku Koivu scored just 14 seconds into overtime as the Anaheim Ducks rallied from a 4-2 deficit with ten minutes to play and defeated the Isles 5-4 at Honda Center. With the "loser point," the Isles climb within six points of Boston for eighth place in the East. On to the Trick:
1. Each team scored twice in the first period as neither team could hold a lead for more than one minute. ...
