The Nets last night looked like they were still playing preseason basketball. Joe Johnson was 7-19 from the field with 19 points and 6 boards. Mirza Teletovic had 20 points in just 23 minutes, he also grabbed 6 rebounds. Rajon Rando had 13 points, 12 assists, and 7 rebounds in his return to basketball proving that without him they are a totally different team. The Nets just didn't seem in sync last night from the opening tip. The got pushed around at the very beginning and just couldn't get on the same page. That was some what expected with the new coach, and his new system with some new additions. Hopefully the starters can get on the same page that Teletovic was on last night because he was on fire! In a bad loss its hard to say anybody played well but Teletovic really played well, he was the hot hand, and the at one point the only offense the Nets had. A 121-105 loss in your first game of the season is not the way you want to break the new season. Tonight however it is all a

The Royals had life, and it quickly disappeared last night in the 9th. The air in the Big K just went out of the building as Salvador Perez popped out to end the game. Madison Bumgarner proved to criques that he can pitch in the biggest game, and that pitch counts are overrated. Bumgarner who had 117 pitches had 50+ last night in a 5 inning save to win the World Series. The Giants who have won 3 of the last 5 World Series always seem as an under the radar team when it gets down to the dog days of summer. On the Royals side they showed especially in the ninth, that they need to get a big bat in the middle of that lineup. The power shortage is something teams in the postseason in have shown in recent years. Like the Tigers, the last 3 years, the Yankees 2 years ago, the Cardinals in last years World Series, and this year the game after the Royals scored 10 runs, looking like they would run the Giants all the way back to San Francisco. Maybe they under estimated the Giants pitching, or ma

With a dominant performance by the entire Royals team last night with a 10-0 win facing elimination in Game 6 last night in KC. The Royals who have faced adversity all postseason fought back into the series with great hitting and even better pitching. Yordano Ventura who was remembering Oscar Tarvaras who died the night before in a car crash in the Dominican Republic. Ventura went 7 strong in the blow out victory. Tonight in Game 7 the probables are Tim Hudson for the Giants, and Jeremy Guthrie for the Royals. In my opinion the Royals should send Big Game James Shields to the mound, even though he has been shaky in this World Series and most of the playoffs. If Shields could go 5 innings and give up less then 2 runs the Royals could hand it off to the back end of the bullpen and fight there way back in if they are losing at the time. Pitchers like James Shields who are considered big game pitchers live for moments, and games like this. All we can do now is sit back, relax, and watch so

Julius Randle broke his leg in his NBA debut last night against the Dallas Mavericks. Randle who was supposed to be a prototype Power Forward/Center player that the Lakers drafted with the 7th Overall pick last June. Randle broke it on the way to the basket in the 4th. The play seemed routine, but because of the physical game that was played maybe there was added contact. Will Kobe get fined for the flop that he did when Dwight Howard was swinging his elbows after a defensive rebound. It didn't take long for the first flop of the season either. Usually I would think it would be LeBron or D-Wade or maybe Paul Pierce but Kobe?! He has throughout his career is regarded as one of the best on-ball defenders in the league, but sooner or later with his old age he has reverted to winning Oscars on the basketball court, rather then guarding up and playing good defense. How heavily will the Randle injury effect the post play on both sides of the court for the Lakers. Even though Julius Randl

Madison Bumgarner, Brandon Crawford, and the Giants took a 3-2 lead in the Fall Classic with a 5-0 win over KC last night to timely hitting by Brandon Crawford who wasn't shown up since the Grand Slam in the Wild Card game in the Steel City. Bumgarner who had another great game going 9 giving up 4 hits and striking out 8. The Royals who have gotten outplayed by the Bay by the Giants aren't out of it just yet because the have to face Jake Peavy and Tim Hudson two pitches who are very good but lack experienced in a big game like this. Peavy who had a good game in our nations Capital in the Division Series hasn't pitched like that since then. Hudson who has been proven very beatable in this postseason has been scheduled to pitch Game 7. Would the the Giants send Bumgarner on 3 days rest out for game 7? In my opinion yes they should, my reasoning behind this is, if he could go possibly 6 or 7 innings the back of the Giants bullpen could hold off the Royals weak offense for 4 in

Yesterday was close nail bitters to blow out wins, and people losing their jobs. In Carolina it was another defensive battle. Russell Wilson and Cam Newton got beat up yesterday by the opposing defense. Wilson got the last punch however throwing a laser to Luke Wilson. Across the pound a delay of game penalty saved the game for the Lions as Matt Prater booted a 48 yard game winner after getting the penalty. Geno Smith and Rex Ryan have lost their job in my eyes after the 43-23 beat down in Metlife. The only thing Jet fans have to look forward to is the upcoming draft. It's a very disappointing season in Gotham because this was the year that they were supposed to have the offense that would compete and take pressure off the defense. The Jets are still last in the league with a turnover difference of -13. The one player that stood out to me the most was Big Ben Roethlisberger who had 522 yards passing and 6 touchdowns. Roethlisberger is player who in the Brady/Manning dominated Era h

What an upsetting, terrible, and unwatchable performance by Geno Smith this afternoon in Metlife. Smith who was 2-8 for 5 yards in 3 picks, most likely lost his job to Micheal Vick. Vick who also had 3 turnovers look decent but still disappointing. Where do the Jets go from here? Do they sign Matt Sims from the practice squad? Do they sign a quarterback? They can not afford to draft another quaterback. Percy Harvin didn't even show up today, and the run game which was one of the Main points that Rex Ryan when he came to New York said they would improve on. Well if your going to improve at something don't you think you would run the ball like you did last week, because of the success you had? The Jets offensive coordinator and offensive players turn into Monkeys the week after a win. Rex Ryan in my opinion has officially lost his job after a week like this week. Geno Smith has played his last down in a Jet uniform, and Marty Mornhinweg has also lost his job. John Idzik has some

Steve Nash has hurt his back and is reportedly done for the year with out even stepping on the court to a play minute of meaningful basketball for the Lakers this season. Nash, whose production has significantly decreased due to age and injuries since he join the Lakers. He approved the trade a couple years back to be closer to his kids in L.A. Last year he admitted that he is only playing for the money at this point in his career. The 2 time MVP of the league who is a Hall of Famer for sure should collect the last pay check with the Lakers this season, then retire and be with his kids and family. What does Nash really bring the Lakers except for a contract that is to high for a player of his age. Nash, yes he is a good shooter when he is out on the floor and he brings lots of leadership and he is a veteran guy in the locker room. But that L.A backcourt needs some new tires with Kobe coming back from his injury. Jeremy Lin will get another chance to prove himself in a big media based c

Last night in Game 2, Royals baseball was played to a tee. Great pitching along with great defense and timely hitting has been their formula to win games this postseason. This time it was a huge 6th inning caped off by a 2 run homer by Omar Infante, which caused some chatter. Hunter Strickland the Giants pitcher at the time was screaming at Salvador Perez as he crossed home plate. The Royals bench cleared but nobody was run. Billy Butler, and Perez had big hits in the game and just hit a double off Strickland. The Royals bullpen did its usually business shutting down the Giants with the fire throwing combo of Herrera, Davis, and Holland. All three of these guys throw 95+ with some nasty secondary pitches. 4 guys in the Royals lineup had 2 hits a piece to seal the 7-2 blow out of San Fran. Although one thing that doesn't make any sense to me was that the Royals up 5 at the time put their closer Greg Holland on the mound in the 9th. Yeah I get the fact that you have to get a guy some

Madison Bumgarner yet again dominated postseason batters. I saw a very interesting stat last night while watching the last outs of last nights blow out win in Game 1 of the World Series. Madison Bumgarner in 22 innings pitched in the World Series has given up only 1 run. To me that is amazing, I mean this is better then some of the postseason greats like Mariano Rivera or Dennis Eckersley, Andy Pettitte, Curt Schilling, and others. Hunter Pence got the game off with a bang with a 2 run homer in the top of the 1st thanks to a meatball of a fastball that he deposited it into deep right center field. Pence who is probably the most unfundamental baseball player who ever lived. Pence went 2/3 with 2 hits and 2 RBI's. Gregor Blanco scored twice with 2 walks. On the Royals side of the field not much happened as they only totaled 3 hits off the San Fran South Paw. Salvador Perez who homered to left was the only run suffered in a masterful performance by Bumgarner. Big Game James Shields on

I forgot to do the Monday Game Ball because of the news of Oscar Pistorius yesterday, but here it is. Now this game was all Texans early as they jumped out to a early 13-0 led. But them some great defense and quick easy offense turned the tides just as the boo birds started chirping in the big ketchup bottle also known as Heinz Field. My game ball goes out to the entire Pittsburgh Defense. 2 fumbles and a juggled interception but the Steelers offense on the field multiple times before half. As Big Ben put a fork in Houston the defense could just sit back in coverage and protect the led. It was a very slow game with an eventful quarter. I thought that Houston would awaken after half but they just got further and further in quicksand not allowing themselves to get back themselves in the game. But what seemed out of no wear the Houston offense finally put some gas in the tank and tried pushing themselves back in the game with a field goal with 4;12 to go but a costly fumble pretty much th

Oscar Pistorius who is the famous double-amputee Paralympic who has a record 6 gold metals was sentenced this morning for 5 years for shooting and killing his girlfriend Reeva Steenkamp back in February of 2013. The International Paralympic Committee has banned Pistorius for 5 years which is the same amount of time he was in jail. He can be released after 10 months and serve the rest of the time under house arrest. The (IPC) said "the sentence means Pistorius is ineligible to compete for the entire five years regardless of where it is served." This rules out Oscar Pistorius for the 2016 games in Rio. I am still baffled at how long the South African Government took to sentence Pistorius in this case. It is clear that Oscar Pistorius killed Reeva Steenkamp it is even on tape. However Pistorius was not found guilty for the two gun related to the illegal possession of ammunition and firing through the sunroof of a car. Pistorius on record saying that she might have been an intrud

The 2014 World Series Tonight 8:07 EST on Fox Many people might have forgot that baseball is still going on, with the long break that the majors has taken so they wouldn't have to compete for viewers with football over the weekend. What baseball should have done was schedule Game 1 for this past Saturday at like 4 pm or something like that. The college football games this past week were absolute blow outs, and it was every single nationally wide broadcast-ed game. MLB could have got the game over before the Irish and Florida State squared off at 8:30 EST on Saturday night. They could have Game 2 last night because not many people are interested in two teams that aren't relevant in the NFL today. Anyway it is a huge ace off tonight in Game 1 and thanks to Mike Trout, Derek Jeter, and the AL All-Star team the Royals have home field in the fall classic. I am extremely excited to see whats in store because I believe that this is the greatest postseason games and talent wise th

Yesterday afternoon the Jets introduced their new Star wide out Percy Harvin to Gotham. Harvin said that the locker room embraced him and made him feel welcome. He also said that he was excited to be here and that he likes the coaching staff. Reports came out over the weekend of him saying that the Jets having all the right pieces in the eyes of Harvin. Well the most important thing is that the locker room situation is right and that there are no problems involving Percy. Rex Ryan the Jets head coach said that he is not worried about the situation in the locker room of the Jets. If Harvin is right and the Jets have all the right pieces then the Jets should be primed to make a strong push for the playoffs throughout the rest of the season. With the acquisition of Percy Harvin look for the Jets to give Percy his touches yes, but turn more focus on throwing the ball to the slot receiver which would be Jeremy Kerly. Kerly can go back to what I think he does the best beating linebackers and

After a game that many experts that know and are around football thought that is a game that Da Bears should have had. I however picked the Dolphins to win with the spread but that is besides the fact. Brandon Marshall bashed his teammate quarterback and best friend Jay Cutler. Cutler didn't really play all that well, he had 190 yards passing and 1 TD to go along with a pick. Marshall who was clearly upset at Cutler and the entire offense. He commented the offense line and Jeffery and Bennett on the play of them. Marshall commented on all of the offense except Jay Cutler. For some reason that as soon as I heard the comments from Marshall it was odd not hearing Cutler's name come out of Marshall's mouth. The Bears are 3-4 and have lost all the games at home. Cutler did throw a key interception and Marshall said and repeated that quote "he can' t turn the ball over." Saying that it is "Unacceptable" . Yes they do need to take care of the ball and get t

As many of you know by now Peyton Manning has past Brett Farve with his 509 touchdown pass against the San Francisco 49ers last might in Denver. Now you would think he be my Sunday game ball correct? Well you would be wrong he would probably be 1a on the game ball list. Yes he did past Farve on the All-time list for touchdowns and yes he is one of the Greatest to EVER play but thats all everyone is talking about this morning and probably all week. It gets tiring really quick. If he hasn't stapled his ticket to Canton Ohio, by now then there is something wrong with people. The Rams upset the defending champs yesterday after Seattle traded their most explosive weapon to the Jets. News came out about the trade of Harvin and reasons why he was traded allegedly. He supposedly punched Golden Tate now with the Lions in the face a day or so before the Super Bowl last February. Looking back at pictures and you can Google them until your blue in the face because there is no evidence of a bla

Yes it is true the New York Jets get an electric weapon in Percy Harvin. Seattle who was looking to get him involved more in the offense was shipped off to New York because yet again besides glimpses of amazing play Harvin had locker room problems yet again. This same reason that he was traded to Seattle. Besides his personal issues in the locker room the Jets get the Number 2 receiver that they desperately needed. Jeremy Kerly who wasn't been getting his chance to shine in the past couple of weeks will now get to go back to his true position in the slot being able to burn linebackers and safeties. It should be very exciting to watch. I know I will be glued to the TV next sunday. Let's go Jets!! Don't forget to follow on your way out!

That sounds so familiar doesn't it? Well it happened not only October 3rd 1951 the infamous "shot heard round the world" hit by the then New York Giants outfielder Bobby Thomson, but happen last night by another Giants outfielder this one playing for San Francisco. Travis Ishikawa who wasn't even on the team to begin the season is now playing everyday leftfield for the Giants. Ishikawa said to ESPN reporter Pedro Gomez he doesn't even remember running the bases. And it seemed like 1951 as Ishikawa was rounding third with this teammates running out to party with him as he was coming home. Guys like Tim Hudson who have had good careers who are feeling like a little kid going to their first World Series. The game winning Pennant clinching Bomb into right field sums up the entire 2014 Postseason, one of the best in recent memory. The games just keep getting better and better. Now the team of Destiny in the Kansas City Royals are playing a team of Dynasty in the San Fr

Geno and the Jets lost a heart pounding game last night. Chris Ivory had possibly the game of his career last night in a losing effort thanks to the blocking game winning field goal attempt. Ivory is my game ball for Monday. He had 107 yards rushing but to me it felt like 307. Ivory pounded the Pats on the ground channeling his inner Marshon Lynch. He got his touchdown diving over the pile with 9:02 to go in the 3rd. Ivory also had a very important 18 yards receiving. Kerly had probably the most important catch of the night on the last drive out running a pats defender to gain much needed yards for the attempted field goal which we all know was blocked. This is hands down the best game Geno Smith has played in his brief football career. He out played Brady in my eyes, he kept plays alive when he was trapped and ran out of it for first downs. Had a great drive at the end of the game in less with less then 1:10 to go in the game. Doing everything that was asked of him and doing it to a h

The Giants won on a bunt from Blanco in the 10th inning yesterday afternoon. That only would happen in the National League. You wouldn't see an American League, no team would be dropping down a bunt with no outs and two on in the 10th. They would be swinging away trying to get the runner from second to score on a base hit. The wind was swirling winds by the bay made for some interesting fly balls out in right field. Hunter Pence got the scoring starting with a doubled to center scoring Posey. Travis Ishikawa later in the first doubled off the center of the right field wall thanks to the winds knocking the ball down. All four runs were credited to Cards starter John Lackey. Kolton Wong who hit the Game Winning solo bomb to win Game 3 and in Game 4 he tripled off the right field wall again thanks to those crazy winds. Wongs triple cleared the bases and made it very interesting. In the 7th Randal Grichuck hit a solo shot off the foul poll to tie the game. All that led to the walk off

Well that wasn't what I was expecting from the Rangers last night. Henrik Lundqvist didn't have the greatest game of his career, to say the least. The Rangers had a ton of costly turnovers in their on zone that led to quick easy goals for the Islanders. Rick Nash had a good game with two goals along with a Derick Drassard scored a goal in the 2nd Period with 3:50 to go. John Tavares the young Islander star had 4 shoots on goal with an assist and a goal. The Rangers look to rebound from the awful performance last night with a game against the Hurricanes at MSG at 7 PM EST on Thursday. Hopefully the Rangers will play better as they are 1-3 with only 2 points on the young season I will be watching again tonight Lets Go Rangers Don't forget to follow on your way out

Yes it is that time of year for a very select amount of people. THE NHL IS BACK!!! Now you may say hey nobody cares about hockey man! Well even if I can't name more then 5 Rangers that are on the team this year I am very excited to the Blue Shirts back on the ice ready to go to war. This is the most interest in hockey that I have ever had and lucky for me the Blue Shirts are actually pretty good. They are the defending Eastern Conference Champs and this young season are 1-2 with 2 points. They play tonight 7 pm EST against the New York Islanders. I'll be tuning in for sure. Don't forget to follow on your way out!

Another good game on Monday Night Football. The rookie running back Tre Mason had an impressive first quarter and Austin Davis did as well the Rams jumped to a 14-0 led after 1. Caepernik led his team back in the 2nd wish a last minute 80 yard strike to Brandon Llyod, the pass was the longest TD pass of Caepernik's career college or professional. In the second half more niners as Caepernik led his team back as Davis faded late throwing a pick 6 to Dontae Johnson that iced the game with just about a minute left. So with that said Colin Caepernik is my Monday Game Ball with 343 passing yards, he was 22/36 on passing attempts. He also threw 3 touchdowns, the most impressive was the one that he drifted left and threw a dart to Boldin for a score. Caep also had 37 yards on the ground. Proving to doubters that he is a elite quarterback in the NFL. This probably the most impressive game all around that San Fran has played all season granted it was against the sorry ass Rams but, none the

It hurts me to say this but Tony Romo is my game ball for sunday. He didn't have the must flashest game but he throw for 250 yards 2 touchdowns and led his team to a win in Seattle against the 12 man and the Seahawks. Romo tipped toed out of 2 sacks and throwing a dart to Williams fie a key first down to keep the drive alive. Demarco Murray did have his 6 consecutive 100 yard rushing game tieing Jim Brown for the must 100 yard games to start a season. This almost redeems himself for week 1 embarrassment of a game. But the Cowboys are 5-1 and will make things interesting. Although I don't think they are the best team in the NFC. It's to tough to know right now but it will be a great watch down the stretch. Don't forget to follow on your way out

Just wow what a game the Giants coming back in the 7th and then Big City having a homerun then the wild pitch the Molina injury does he make that pick? Wong hits an absolute bomb to win the game and his jersey gets ripped in half a great pitchers duel just what else to you say? Leave your comments below Don't forget to follow on your way out

As I predicted Colby Fleener and T.Y Hilton had touchdowns. Andrew Luck picked apart the defense for the most part. Hilton had 223 yards with just 9 receptions and a touchdown. Now as strong as his performance was probably the best showing for a receiver this season J.J Watt was a handful and that is why he is my game ball. He had 7 tackles, 2 sacks, and a fumble returned for a touchdown. If you go back and watch the game tap again you will see the double teams had to be made for Watt, and he still what he did last night. Watt is a Beast and should just take the Defense Player of the Year right now. Nobody is even close to him. Watt has more touchdowns this season then the whole entire Jets Receiving core combined, that says something! Just close your eyes and imagine what this defensive front will look like when Jadavon Clowney comes back from injury all the disruptions that will happen in the back field. It might compare with the Iron Curtain of the Steelers, maybe just maybe... Do

Last night the NLCS was set in dramatic fashion. Matt "Big City" Adams hit a 3 run shot into the Cards bullpen off a hanger from Kershaw. Trevor Rosenthal locked down the 9th with his fireballs as St.Louis returns to the league championship series for the fourth time in as many years. This is the first time a team has done that since the Yankees from 1998-2001. I have made references to the mid-90's Yanks before calling this years KC team a very similar team. St.Louis however has shown success even with losing their Right Fielder and a hitter in the middle of their order Carlos Beltran to the Yanks for $48 million this offseason. Also they traded Allen Craig their first baseman and Joe Kelly a young starter. Matt Adams proved his worth with the 3-run game winning shot and proved the Cardinals right for trading Craig put him over at first. San Francisco by the bay clinched their series as well thanks to a wild pitch from Aaron Barrett as Joe Panik raced home from third. B

This unlike yesterday was a no-brainer to me. Russell Wilson is my Game Ball winner for Monday night. I knew that the Redskins defense couldn't stick with Wilson before the game and they proved me right. My number 1 pick this week ended up being correct with Seattle. I almost gave the ball to Percy Havin who had only 4 catches for 27 yards but keep in mind that 2 touchdowns were taken away for Harvin due to penalties. Anyway Wilson had 201 passing yards and 2 touchdowns. He also had 122 yards on the ground being Seattle leading rusher with a touchdown to with the 122. Week 6 Picks are in the works. Don't forget to follow on your way out!

This was a real tough one this week because yesterday was an amazing day of football. 2 overtime thrillers, 3 comebacks two of them led by offense. Orton leading Buffalo to a 3 point win in Detroit. The Carolina defense taking over the game so the struggling Panthers offensive could muster enough points to pull off the victory. A under the radar comeback in the Dome down in New Orleans. Tampa Bay almost pulling off the upset but still covering. Khiry Robinson with a Monster run to win the game for the Saints on the first drive of OT. But the greatest play of any of those players was Brain Hoyer taking the Browns and charging back down 25 going into the half. Hoyer who has been under a ton of bad press, now that Johnny Football is wearing a Browns Uni. Anyway Hoyer had 292 yards with 3 passing touchdowns 2 of which went to Travis Benjamin. If yesterday was any indication tonights Seahawk Redskins game should be a great one on MNF. C'mon man my Picks weren't all that great this

Both Baltimore and KC clinched last night. Baltimore 2-1, and the Royals in crushing fashion 8-3 as Big Game James wins yet another big game, he even left hearing a chant similar to the President and that was " 4 more years" as Shields is a free agent after this year. Baltimore thanks to the best signing of the offseason in Nelson Cruz hit a 2 run homer to clinch the series in Detroit for the O's. KC did it in different style not by stealing bags but flashing the leather and crushing the ball. Alex Gordon hit a bases clearing triple in the 2nd to start it off. Lerenzo Cain made to highlight catches on way to Bubbles flying in the clubhouse. Don't forget to follow on the way out.

The Washington Nationals and San Francisco Giants played an 18 inning 6 hour and 23 minute marathon Saturday night. The game started started at 5:30 EST and ended just after midnight. The game started off as a pitchers duel between Tim Hudson and Jordan Zimmerman. Hudson who went 7 and a third innings with 8 K's 7 hits and only 1 run. Zimmerman who did him better going 8 and two thirds innings. At one point in the game retiring 20 straight Giants gave up a key walk to Joe Panik in the 9th and a Buster Posey single was taken out. Pablo Sandaval hit a ringing double which scored Panik to tie the game and almost scored Posey who was thrown out at the plate. 9 innings a 14 inning stretch and a second Presidents race later Brendan Belt hit a home run into the Nationals bullpen to give the Giants a 2-1 led and later the win. What will game 3 have in store after the marathon of game 2? Let's find out... Don't forget to follow on your way out

The NFL has come to terms with Bose headphones. The contract that was agreed on limits players to only wearing bose headphones on the field, post game, in training camp, and the most ridiculous of all up to 90 minutes AFTER the game. Keep in mind players like Richard Sherman and Colin Kaepernick who have commercials with Beats by Dr Dre, what will they do? Only 2 players Russell Wilson and JJ Watt have a commercial with Bose and that released recently. This contract will give the NFL revenue but take a lot of it away. How will the NFLPA and the players themselves respond to this news? Don't forget to follow on your way out

Greatest night of the season for baseball as we saw it all great pitching better hitting small ball home runs and game winners! Baltimore came back with a 2 out rally by "Bruce Lee " or Delmon Young who hit a bases clearing double to beat Detroit and give his team a 2-0 series led going to Detroit. In Washington a tough battle with Peavy putting his best foot forward going 6.1 innings. Bryce Harper hit an absolute bomb into the 3 deck late but in the end it didn't matter. In L.A. the Dodgers dominated through the first 6 but a 8 run 7th inning thanks to a huge Matt Holiday 3 run homer to cap that 7th. And 30 miles north the Royals won yet again another extra inning game. Kansas City who pitched ran and had timely hitting. Eric Hosmer hit a 2 run go ahead bomb into the L.A. Night and was absolutely ecstatic, he was also wearing a mic for TBS which made it even better. Now San Francisco is trying to steal the 2nd straight game in the nations capital. Later the Dodgers who t

Geno Smith the quaterback of the New York Jets was fined $12k by the league for his comments to a fan during Sundays brutal lost to the Detroit Lions. Smith later apologized. And most players probably would have said something along those lines if they were playing the way Smith was expecially if the fan was chanting for your back up. But I am not condoning the words of Geno Smith but in order for fans to at least except Smith as a decent quaterback he needs to play better. In my opinion he is that far off. The Jets should be 3-1. Think about it a time out and a good throw at the end of the Chicago game and their possibly looking at a 3-1 record... Something to think about Don't forget to follow on your way out

Morgan Burnett had 8 tackles and a forced fumbled and was all over the field last night making a statement about the Packers defense in back to back weeks. Sorry I didn't do this in the Morning kind of rough but I will get better people don't worry Don't forget to follow on your way out

Absolutely great team baseball is being played today. Baltimore taking a 2-0 lead and all of the momentum into Detroit where the Tigers are facing a most win. Jaba Chamberlain has a 108 ERA! KC stealing game one against Weaver but not in a track meet style like in the "wildest wild card game" in recent memory. KC instead played great defense throughout and doing what got them to the postseason and that's pitch with the best of them. In the nation's capital San Francisco stole game one with a great emotional game by Jake Peavy and Kershaw just dominating in L.A. Pleading his case for NL MVP and rightfully so. Breezing through the majors like he is facing little leaguers. With the almost brawl tonight this series if it wasn't already is the best series in baseball, well I can't say that they are all great because of the magnitude of the game in the situation.
