Ted Ginn Jr. is a Special Teams Only Player: 49ers In Trouble if He’s a Receiver
Posted: 16th April 2010 by Steven Resnick in NFL
The San Francisco 49ers brought in first round bust Ted Ginn, Jr. as the answer to their special teams woes. Ginn will definitely help out in the return game, his speed and numbers prove that.
I've seen comments on another article about Ginn coming to San Francisco to battle for the number two receiver position. That's not going to happen, Ginn doesn't have the ability as a receiver to even remotely ...
Has Stephen Curry Cemented the ROY Award With His 42 Point Game ?
Posted: 15th April 2010 by Steven Resnick in NBA
If the NBA's Rookie of the Year Award was given out after the first half of the season, there would be no question that Tyreke Evans would have won it. In the second half of the season, though, Stephen Curry began to have the spotlight shine on him.
The question now becomes, has Curry surpassed Evans for rookie of the year? Even though Evans has become only the fourth player in ...
Top 10 Draft Picks of the 49ers In the Last Two Decades
Posted: 14th April 2010 by Steven Resnick in NFL
Recently I wrote an article examining the top 10 blunders of the San Francisco 49ers of the last two decades. Well over the last two decades the 49ers also have made some tremendous picks over the last two decades as well.
Right now as a fan of the 49ers it's easy to sit on the fact that recently the drafts haven't been too friendly with a few exceptions along the ...
The Top 10 49ers NFL Draft Blunders Over The Past Two Decades
Posted: 3rd April 2010 by Steven Resnick in NFL
Over the past decade, the San Francisco 49ers have had their share of wasted picks in the NFL Draft, from overlooking certain players to just flat-out misses.
In 2009, the 49ers fans saw how quickly a year could change the perception of a certain player.
Even with that, the 49ers have made some horrific picks lately.
Now it's time to take a look at the worst of the worst over ...
Another Horrendous Sports Idea: NBA To Give Fans Power in the MVP Vote
Posted: 31st March 2010 by Steven Resnick in NBA
Kudos for the NBA, specifically David Stern, for coming up with another horrendous idea. It's almost as bad as MLB having the winner of the all-star game get home field advantage in the World Series. Actually, you could probably argue that both of the ideas are bad.
Although, bad ideas seem to be what Stern is good at. Some examples of these bad ideas were the introduction of zone defenses, defensive ...
Stockton vs Nash: Which Point Guard Would You Start Your Franchise With?
Posted: 26th March 2010 by Steven Resnick in NBA
I was reading an article the other day on Steve Nash and how he's not slowing down at the age of 36.
This led me to make some comments on the subject and see what other NBA fans had too say about Nash's abilities at 36.
There was one comment that just made me shake my head...
Someone suggested that Nash was better than John Stockton.
I've never been a fan of Utah or ...
Monta Ellis and Stephen Curry Are the Golden State Warriors’ Future
Posted: 26th February 2010 by Steven Resnick in NBA
The Golden State Warriors have struggled this season too find any kind of consistent play. So far, the two most consistent players the Warriors have had for the season have been Monta Ellis and Stephen Curry.
Corey Maggette does deserve an honorable mention in terms of consistency as well but has been injured and will be out for a while.
Yet, there are Warrior fans who would like too see Monta Ellis traded. Eric Schembri ...
Butler-Howard Wizards Rumor Makes No Sense for Washington
Posted: 13th February 2010 by Steven Resnick in NBA
I understand that the Washington Wizards would like to start making moves to change the atmosphere and the perception of the team, especially after the Gilbert Arenas incident that became a major distraction and embarrassment.
Even with that, though, there's a troubling rumor that's been going around: The Wizards would trade Caron Butler and Brendan Haywood for Josh Howard and Erick Dampier.
The question becomes, why in the world would the ...
Stephen Curry’s Developing Game Means Rookie of the Year Award Is His
Posted: 13th February 2010 by Steven Resnick in NBA
Stephen Curry's game has grown since the beginning of the season. At the beginning of the year, Curry had a hard time getting to the rim and finishing, had a hard time taking care of the ball, and also had the knack of picking up fouls very quickly, which meant a lot of time on the bench and playing time for backup guard C.J. Watson.
Curry is now heading into the ...
Warriors Goal By The End Of the Season: Catch The Kings
Posted: 30th December 2009 by Steven Resnick in NBA
At this point of the season for the Golden State Warriors, the playoffs shouldn't be anywhere near the team's mind, but there should be a reasonable goal to finish the season and that is to surpass the Sacramento Kings for third in the Pacific division.
Currently the Warriors have a record of 9-22, while the Kings have a record of 14-16. I believe this is definitely a plausible goal for the ...
