Imprisoned NFL quarterback Michael Vick expects to return to pro football, according to his bankruptcy attorneys who laid out a plan to pay creditors based in part on his anticipated earnings. "The Debtor has every reason to believe that upon his release, he will be reinstated into the NFL, resume his career and be … Continue reading Vick back to NFL? →

Hmm – football or RNC?

The Washington Redskins open their season on the road tonight at the New York Giants, last year's Super Bowl winner. So, what's a political Redskins fan to do? Watch the game or watch the Republican National Convention? Decisions, decisions 😉 And a bigger question: who's hosting tonight's RNC watching session?

50-year old N Lieberman rejoins WNBA

Former Old Dominion University Lady Monarch Nancy Lieberman has been signed to a 7-day contract with the WNBA's Detroit Shock.

Unbelivable! Giants win

The New York Giants completed the upset of the year by defeating the New England Patriots, 17-14. Unbelivable. Proof that pressure on Tom Brady works.

Super Bowl XLII: My pick

vs The New England Patriots face the New York Giants in Super Bowl XLII in Arizona Sunday. The Patriots bring their undefeated record against the surging Giants, who are playing their best football of the season. Nevertheless, I predict that the Patriots will win this game, by at least 10 points. And I predict Tom … Continue reading Super Bowl XLII: My pick →

Fire Dan Snyder

If there was a way that fans could fire an owner, I'd like to see Redskins fans dump Dannyboy Snyder. His firing of Greg Williams and Al Saunders tells me the man has completely lost whatever few marbles he had left. Now that I think about it, we do have a way to fire him. … Continue reading Fire Dan Snyder →

Giants unexpected win

I thought the game would be close, but I expected the Green Bay Packers to pull it out. A three-point win by the New York Giants sends them to the Super Bowl against the undefeated New England Patriots. Talk about a game I will have little interest in 😦 I'm a fan of neither team … Continue reading Giants unexpected win →
