With word that the Chiefs lead the Dolphins, 31-24, in the third quarter of their game (if Dolphins and Jets lose today, Pats in playoffs with a win next week), the news couldn’t be any better. Of course, the Dolphins tied the score at 31-31, about one minute later. That being said, you can’t say [...]
We are assuming Jason Varitek signs a two-year, $13 million deal, which apparently is on the table or has been offered. Here is the Sox lineup for 2009: 1. Jacoby Ellsbury CF … I predict he rebounds in a big way 2. Dustin Pedroia 2B … Will have better numbers in ’09 3. Kevin Youkilis [...]
What was your reaction when you first heard the news this morning, that the Red Sox had basically dropped out of the Mark Teixeira negotiations after rumors stating they were in the lead? My reaction was, well, I had no reaction. Since Day 1 of this off-season, the Red Sox have been in control. They [...]

As expected, a ho-hum second half with little eventful to speak of. New England totally takes care of business. Professional win against an overwhelmed foe. That’s the good side. The bad side is we now have to think about Larry Fitzgerald and Anquan Boldin against this secondary. Yikes. Time to root the Steelers back against [...]

And I don’t mean for the execution. I thought celebrations had to be a one-man affair. The Willhite, Meriweather and Co. dance after Jonathan Wilhite’s last interception has to be illegal by NFL rules. I just wish somebody would step up and stop these guys, who aren’t good and especially aren’t anywhere near mediocre as [...]

OK, big guy, way to make up for the horrendous coverage with a kick return for a TD. You are now even for the day. The extra dancing is so uncalled for. HL
Higgins, Ellis, Higgins, look for the name on his back if you can’t remember the number. The Raiders show some offensive life. They still can’t stop this offense, now 21-7.

5. Pound out some cutlets, bread them and fry them (‘be sure to season your flour, because when i get my flour, it doesn’t come seasoned”), top with my homemade sauce and a combination of mozzarella, provolone and pecorino romano, then serve my wife and son a wonderful dinner of pasta and parmagiana. 4. Sort [...]
Again Hector Longo here. TD Patriots, too easy. That’s all the points New England is going to need against this group of chumps. Oakland will not score today. Repeat, Oakland will not score today!!!!!!!By the way, the Pittsburgh-Baltimore game now becomes giant. The Pats need a steelers win badly. The fact that this is a [...]

(Hector Longo here) What the hell was that? Run the ball and win. Nope, Swampscott’s dimwittiest throws a pass and seals his firing in Buffalo, giving the Jets a gift and severely hampering the Pats’ playoff chances. Even when New England spanks the Raiders, and they will spank the pathetic Raiders in an ugly one, [...]
