Tim Couch took steroids.
When you’re are done laughing, let’s examine the speculations. Yahoo! Sports reported they obtained documents that indicate Couch had regimens that called for the use of anabolic steroids and human growth hormone while he attempted to revive his NFL career.

Good work Yanks!

In the past few weeks the Yankees and the Tigers have played eight times. Most of the games I was “rooting” for the Yankees to win. (I was actually rooting that some weird nuclear outbreak would take over the stadium and everyone’s arms or legs would fall off.) My thinking was, if the Detroit loses, [...]

The Good: Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim’s Garret Anderson had 10 RBI’s in a 18-9 win over the Yankees. He was just two RBI’s away from tying the MLB record set by none other than the legendary Mark Whiten in 1993. Jim Bottomley originally set the [...]

Tiki, Eli, high comedy

This whole Tiki Barber vs. Eli Manning is the most comical sports media feud since Shaq vs. Kobe VI.
Sunday night Barber called out Manning’s leadership ability. He called it “comical” how he tried to lead an offensive meeting.
What was comical is the response Manning fired back two days later.
“I guess I’m just happy for [...]

Vick on “AI”?

I can’t take this anymore.
Yesterday, Vick decides to plead guilty to charges of having no human feelings and today Simon Cowell announces he is leaving ‘American Idol.’
One of the most popular quarterbacks and figures in the sporting world and the guy you love to hate both with big announcements in back-to-back days.
I don’t know what [...]

“Who’s that?” Not something that should be said in fantasy drafts

Everyone loves talking about their fantasy football teams.
Everyone else hates listening to someone else talk about their fantasy teams.
With that said, this will be about my only post on my fantasy team and really it isn’t even about my team.
We had a draft yesterday for league. Just a small, 10 team, $20 dollar entry fee. [...]
