Posted: 18th June 2010 by David Leon in NFL
Yahoo Sports write Jason Cole just published a ranking of NFL offensive lines. He claims the Saints have the best offensive line, and the Raiders have the worst.
Where do the Rams stand in all this? The Rams rank 28th. You can read the story here.
As is the case in any ranking system, his findings are somewhat debatable. I find his ranking system is far too biased towards the ...

This one is going to haunt Boston Celtics fans for a while.
Going into Game Seven on Thursday night, the Celtics had a million things going against them.

Phoenix Suns Owner Robert Sarver Not Fit to Own NBA Franchise
Posted: 18th June 2010 by Juan Sarinas in NBA
It's amazing how many bad owners there have been in the history of Phoenix sports.
We all know about Bill Bidwell's failures with the Arizona Cardinals in the 1990s (though to his credit, he has backed off and let his son Michael and GM Rod Graves run the show recently, leading to the franchise's recent success).
We can all attribute the Arizona Diamondbacks' failures to majority owner Ken Kendrick, who has undoubtedly failed ...

Posted: 18th June 2010 by M Holly in NFL
The recent signing of former Philadelphia Eagles third round draft choice and running back Ryan Moats by the Minnesota Vikings has raised another question. Is head coach Brad Childress also considering signing another of his former Eagle running backs and third round draft pick, Brian Westbrook?

Busted! Derrick Morgan’s Arrest Another Bad Precedent from 2010 NFL Draft Class

Another one bites the dust in the 2010 NFL Draft class.
First, Golden Tate was caught stealing from Top Pot Doughnuts in Bellevue, WA.
Now, first-round pick Derrick Morgan is facing trouble in Georgia of all places (Big Ben still seems fresh in our minds).
According to reports, most specifically from NFL FanHouse and Pro Football Talk, Morgan was caught speeding at 91 mph in a 70 mph zone and driving with a ...
2010 NBA Draft: Sixers Laying Groundwork for Derrick Favors
Posted: 18th June 2010 by Elliott Pohnl in NBA
Lost amidst the flurry of excitement surrounding Game 7 of the NBA Finals Thursday, the Philadelphia 76ers quietly made a move that could shape the framework of next week’s NBA Draft.

At one point during the game, one of the announcers claimed that the Lakers were playing their best defense of the season. It would be hard to find ...
