The Colts are just that good apparently. After watching the Manning brothers go head to head so to speak I was extraordinarily distressed. I am a Giants fan. They played miserably on both the offensive and defensive. There was not much to be proud of except for one or two completed passes. Not only was [...]

Rarely, if ever, does Derek Jeter find himself in the midst of controversy or questions of sportsmanship.  That is why baseball fans were so surprised on Wednesday night when Jeter faked being hit by a pitch – in reality the ball had hit the bottom of his bat – to advance to first. He spun [...]

Three-hundred yards in 70 seconds. That means you have to run a little more than 1/6 of a mile at a 6 minute 51 second mile pace. Then take three and a half minutes of rest (triple the amount of time you just spent running). Now go back and run another 300 yards, this time [...]

Businesses are at a standstill for the next two hours. Not even public busses roam the [...]

All of you should already know that the New York Knicks landed the first big time free agent to switch teams this summer.  That man is Amar’e Stoudemire.  The Knicks signed Stoudemire to a max contract for 5 years worth about $100 million… Not to shabby for a guy without a college education.  The funny [...]

I don’t know what is more frustrating: the Brett Farve-esque, ubiquitous coverage of the LeBron James and co. free agent bonanza that has taken over Sports Center or watching the Red Sox unbelievable resurgence this season marred by a disabled list that closely resembles Baghdad. The free agent speculation is killing me as much as [...]

So before I start this blog, I need to make one thing clear.  New York is the greatest sports city in the world.  I don’t care what Sam tells you about D.C. or what Ryan tells you about Boston, it’s all here in New York.  While there are no rational arguments to debate this point, [...]
