April 2006 News

NFL Draft Winner #3: Arizona Cardinals

Published: April 30, 2006

comment1 Comment

Matt Leinart. Let me repeat….Matt Leinart. That in and of itself is enough to call this a good draft for the Cardinals. They got a QB at the #10 who many scouts have declared is the best long term QB in the draft this year. Had he come out last year, he would have been [...]


NFL Draft Winner #2: Carolina Panthers

Published: April 30, 2006

commentNo Comments

If you have watched the Carolina Panthers at all in the last few years, you know that the biggest area of instability has been the running game. And that’s odd, considering how much they like to run the ball. They have had a different leading rusher every year for the last 5-6 years. DeShaun Foster [...]


Poor Steve McNair

Published: April 30, 2006

commentNo Comments

When you look up “dissed” in the ebonics dictionary you will also see a picture of Steve McNair. The Tennessee Titans have closed him out of all team and training facilities for quite some time and appear ready to send him off to the Baltimore Ravens. While I understand he is aging and you now [...]


Wrong Sport

Published: April 30, 2006

commentNo Comments

It looks as if Ed Nelson, the somewhat unused muscle at the end of Jim Calhoun’s UCONN bench has been playing the wrong sport all these years. After starting out at Georgia Tech and showing some promise as a basketball player, then transferring to UCONN where he became 5 expendable fouls, Ed Nelson has signed [...]

In a matter or hours the Houston Astros can begin negotiations with Roger Clemens again. Under MLB rules, teams can re-sign their former players who became free agents through December 7th or January 8th if offered salary arbitration and again starting May 1st. Clemens agent said Roger is willing to listen, but don’t count on [...]


NFL Draft Winner #1: San Francisco 49ers

Published: April 30, 2006

commentNo Comments

The 49ers made out like a bandit in this draft. First things first, Vernon Davis is going to give young QB Alex Smith a real target that has the speed to get out and make things happen once he gets his hands on the ball. And once you catch him, you have to actually tackle [...]


Why Kobe Why?

Published: April 30, 2006

commentNo Comments

I really hate the fact that Kobe is a jerk. I hate the fact that the sports world caters to him. I hate the fact that kids look up to him and he is a role model for them. I hate the fact that I can’t pull for him. But that’s the way it is, [...]


World Cup Woes

It’s just over a month away and England has reason to be concerned.  Wayne Rooney a striker for Manchester United will miss up to six weeks after breaking a bone in his foot in Saturday’s Premier League match against Chelsea.  Rooney was thought to be England’s strongest player at the World Cup in Germany and [...]

Quick Hits: April 29th, 2006

Tom Glavine gets a shutout against the Braves. It’s a good thing, because his own team could only muster a 1-0 victory. The Seattle Mariners put an end to two of their troubling trends and extended the Baltimore Orioles’ significant early season bullpen problems Saturday, sending 11 men to the plate and erupting for six [...]
