I’m still at a loss to describe my feelings after watching one of the most unbelievable finishes in sports history. Simply put, the Giants made history in Super Bowl XLII, and we are all fortunate enough to have witnessed it.
There’s no need here to rehash the entire game, but I will say this–never again should […]

Well, this is it. No more talking, no more prognosticating, no more pontificating, no more nothing. Super Bowl Sunday is at hand.
I’m not going to go into any detailed analysis here–we’ve all seen, read, and heard enough about how these two teams match up in the last two weeks, and nothing I would say here […]

Everyone is so worried about overconfidence and overlooking the underdog. Eh. The Dolphins suck. That is a proven fact. Their fans are not optimistic.

Osi Umenyiora, king of sacks

October 1, 2007 | 1 Comment

A few weeks ago I titled a post “Worst Defense in the League.” Sunday night, they were the opposite. Sack happy, setting records, embarrassing the Eagles offensive line. As they should. As they should.
Osi Umenyiora was, dare I say GODlike racking up SIX sacks. The team had 12 in an easy 16-3 win over an […]
