Today, I caught the tail end of Jack and Jackie Harbaugh (father and mother of the Harbowl brothers) doing a press conference to a room packed with ravenous reporters. Apologies to my Ranters for not catching the whole thing. (Hoping to go to Beyonce’s tomorrow so stay tuned folks). Much thanks to Gatorade for getting [...]
The Tampa Bay Lightning set out on a mission to upgrade their defense this past offseason. They did just that, adding two veteran defensemen in Sami Salo and Matt Carle, who haven’t disappointed. Obviously joining a new team is never easy but both players, especially Salo, have handled the transition quite well. A former Vancouver [...]
The Seattle Mariners have been adding bats this offseason like they were going out of style. While many perceived that to mean that the team was happy with the projected rotation heading into 2013, it may have just meant the team was biding their time and looking for the right deal. With pitchers and catchers [...]
If ever the Indiana Pacers needed to win an NBA home game, it was Tuesday night against the Detroit Pistons who had a reason to be distracted. Indiana had lost three straight on the road and returned home to face a Pistons team that found out Tayshaun Prince and Austin Daye would not be in the [...]
The Free Merriam-Webster Dictionary defines tragicomedy as “a drama or a situation blending tragic and comic elements.” In my opinion, nothing could better describe the Manti Te’o hoax and the national freaking out that has gone along with it. This is both a comedy and a tragedy, and sadly it’s only been treated as a [...]
Rough times have hit Champaign once again as the Illinois Fighting Illini have dropped four out of their last five games heading into a major opportunity against the 13th ranked Michigan State Spartans. Meanwhile, Sparty is hitting their usual mid season stride as their highly touted big men Derrick Nix and Adreian Payne finally seem like they [...]
According to USA Today, students from Sandy Hook Elementary School will be singing America the Beautiful during the Super Bowl XLVII pregame show. Alicia Keys is set to sing the National Anthem following the students. The NFL is flying 26 students and their families down to New Orleans this week in order to prepare [...]
The week leading up to Super Bowl XLVII has been quite exciting for members of the Baltimore Ravens considering all of the questions surrounding Ray Lewis being linked to PED. However, the argument can be made that Joe Flacco has found himself in a more difficult situation after making inappropriate comments about his feelings towards [...]
Last week, Philadelphia Union midfielder Brian Carroll was named the captain for the 2013 season. Last season, he was the captain for a few games while Carlos Valdes was playing for the Colombian National Team. Carroll is the right choice for captaincy. He is a great leader on and off the field and has the [...]
While Andy Dirks may not be the sexiest name in MLB, he certainly has gotten a lot of attention among baseball purists. The Detroit Tigers outfielder is a flat-out ball player. He never turns in a clean jersey and has tremendous feel for the game. All of this cannot be denied, but it takes more [...]

In this business, we try to act professional. When I set out to write an article, I try to put my personal feelings aside, and give an honest, unbiased account of what is fact about a player. Trevor Bauer, starting pitcher for the Cleveland Indians, tests my ability to do so. I absolutely love Trevor [...]

There was a point in time when Los Angeles Angels slugger, Albert Pujols was not human. For long stretches, he not only was far and away the best MLB player of my lifetime, and arguably the greatest technical player in sports. There is not a fantasy baseball fan alive that would argue that Albert Pujols [...]

Brothers. There are few things in this world that can be as tight as the bond between brothers. As an only child, I was never privileged enough to experience this phenomenon. However, if I have learned anything from the Jonas Brothers or David and Wayne Palmer, it’s that siblings can accomplish anything when putting this [...]

One of the great reclamation projects of the Washington Nationals was dealt on Wednesday. Michael Morse, one of the great stories in MLB over the past several years, is now on his way to the Seattle Mariners, leaving fantasy baseball owners wondering what to make of this one time journeyman-turned-elite slugger. After bouncing around in the [...]

The landscape of the NFL and fantasy football was rocked Wednesday as the Philadelphia Eagles hired Chip Kelly to become their new head coach. We know all about Chip: his explosive offense, and manic, up-tempo pace, but what does this mean for fantasy purposes? I think the biggest thing to remember with Chip Kelly is [...]

This may sounds like heresy, but WR Wes Welker’s time in New England is limited. If there is one area in which the New England Patriots lead the NFL, it’s being resourceful with their money and developing young, cheap talent. Unfortunately for Welker, the bell tolls for thee now, as his replacement has already emerged. With [...]

I’m not sure if anyone in Boston noticed, but the Boston Red Sox had a down year last season. Across the board, Boston suffered through one of their worst seasons in recent memory, and their all-seeing, never forgiving, fan-base will certainly be looking for improvement this year from several key guys. Potentially, the most prime example [...]

We are less than a month away from the first pitch of Spring Training.

To get us set for the return of baseball, I will be previewing [...]

There is no getting around it, but to this point in his career, Clay Buchholz has been a massive disappointment. It pains me to pen those words, but it’s true. He was once on track to be a fantasy baseball stud but grim reality set in. Few players in Major League Baseball have shown so much promise while still breaking the [...]
