If he goes to FOX, they'll be dumb enough to put him on World Cup duty.

I predict there's going to be at least one (and probably more) National Anthem-related kerfuffles in that Tampa-Montreal second round series. As the lone full time Sens fan here in the Swamp, I feel compelled to challenge your assumption. No doubt Montreal wins most side-by-side comparisons but Ott...

If the playoffs started today, it would be a welcome change to the schedule.

Im in for Saturday. Just let me know. You guys still do the Excalibur, keg? I gotta run 12 miles Saturday morning, but I can try to get that in as early as possible and get down there around 8:30 a.m. or so to try and keep seat saving time to a minimum. Yup, we will be at the Excalibur. Citgo, I wi...

Living here and having a smell-sensitive GF and her kids, they unanimously complain about MGM and NY-NY. Fine with Venetian and Mirage. Didn't look like you were booking on the MGM end but be aware if you are walking down that way. I will ever so slightly give a different gambling opinion from Brian...

I've always hated the back room good-ol'-boy nature of the HOF process but this year takes the cake. Leaving Orlando Pace out and the same year electing Will Shields is the height of ridiculousness. Pace will get in but he deserved the recognition of getting in on the first ballot. Kurt Warner has a...

The only remaining question is will Aaron Hernandez have the ball boy killed?

Dire Straits. Saw Mark Knopfler last year and while he played some DS, would love to see a whole evening.

What's official misconduct?

I imagine it's a catch-all to punish position-of-authority transgressions.

Wouldn't call them the greatest, and I'm sure some of you would argue the 'Rock' designation, but this is probably the most underrated band in this genre. People know the songs and sing along every time but never seem to get mentioned in these discussions. Consider them mentioned. https://www.youtub...

Anyone know what is wrong with NBCSports? I DVRd the arsenal game, and they showed Liverpool instead. I checked the website, where they are supposed to show every game on replay, and they only have two games up. WTF, NBCSports? And they posted a link with the score on the side, so I saw that. Fuck....

Question about the OT rules which could have happened today and in theory could have cost me my three team parlay: Cinn was up 37-34 and had to kick off to Car. If Newton had thrown a pick 6, would the TD count or is the game over as soon as possession changes?

Am I the only one cynical enough to think this guy watched the Clippers sale (2014 Forbes valuation of $575M, sale 2B), looked at his own stake (in a 2014 valuation $425 franchise) and paid some intern to comb through his e-mails to look for anything that might be offensive? I'm not saying his words...

National Dog Day is not a day to celebrate dogs. It's for dog owners to celebrate their ownership of dogs and for you to be told about it. Did you really think people think dogs know it's their day? There are people who think their dogs want to be on a gluten-free diet. Thinking their dog is aware ...

I was hoping they would trade Bradford before the Draft so I'm not a huge fan. I still think one of Jets, Vikes, Raiders, Titans would have given up a 1 for him. However, I don't think any qb could have stayed healthy for a full season behind that line. Manning, Brady, anyone would have gone down at...

Just wanted you guys to know not all of us in Vegas get on boards and talk shit about how much they're going to win by....some of us are sweating the under.

Rams Fanny

I just read that the 76ers are fighting any changes to the draft because they are planning to suck the next couple years. Which got me thinking...why not just eliminate the draft? All eligible players become free agents, limit the max rookie deal to three years, and eliminate the rookie pay scale. T...

The under has been wonderfully profitable for me the last three weeks. Vegas slowly catching on but I think the next couple weeks still have good plays in them.

The 4th episode. The time after which you decide whether or not you will stay with a series. It was the the 4th episode with John Locke's outback adventure that likely hooked you on LOST. Deadwood's 4th was the brilliant Wild Bill episode. By the 4th you were likely in on The Sopranos and Modern Fam...

Windhorst is saying that LeBron is committed long-term to the Cavs, and that the two-year deal has to do with wanting to see how upcoming changes to the salary cap and CBA shake out before signing a longer deal. Then again, nobody thought LeBron would actually opt out this year. Which can only mean...

Rams Fanny

So after all the internet space wasted and blowhard analysts taking up the TV hours, LBJ signs just a TWO YEAR deal with an opt out possibility for NEXT SUMMER???? Jesus tits. Oh, but he's fully committed to staying with the Cavs. LBJ and Snooki appear to have the same concept of commitment.

can't see how 40 works though, groups of 5 are really annoying to schedule. A team always has to sit out and the team that sit out last will feel aggrieved. They would just do 10 groups of four. Two groups (i.e. A and B) play on same day. Matches could be at 1,3,5,7 (or whatever) local time. TV wou...

Really surprised FIFA did something approaching the right thing with the Suarez ban. I understand the banning of all football activities, but banning him from all stadiums seems a bit petty. The real question is, since he deems biting to be a football activity will he be on a liquid diet for four mo...

Rams Fanny

And a question - would a lengthy ban by FIFA impact on Suarez' availability for Liverpool? No, FIFA suspensions don't apply to club play, but Suarez has played his last game for Liverpool regardless. And because of this I think Sepp has an "out". I can see him claiming that since FIFA doe...

I'm a frequent critic of the US team but yesterday was an impressive performance. They were rattled after the early goal but eventually got their feet under them. The Jones strike was magnificent. Not sure I understand the seeking to blame someone on the US side. Ok there was a turnover, but those h...

There can be all kinds of reasonable explanations for the foul disparity. The Spurs could be using their Hack-A-MVP defense. Or they could have suffered some kind of subtle poisoning in the locker room that leaves them with uncontrollable spasms. Or the Thunder players could be really, really on th...

So why are the Americans reinventing the wheel? Fox has to attract new viewers to make their World Cup bids come anywhere near profitable. They recognize that there is a group of established fans who will watch even if Fran Drescher was calling the games. I think they recognize they need to target ...

Joey Crawford reffing the Nets-Heat tonight. I don't believe the NBA is rigged WWE style but I do believe Uncle Joey gets called upon to give every advantage possible to a team trailing after four games to prolong a series. I imagine the NBA wouldn't mind another game involving the NY market. If I t...

In reality, I'm sure the Rams will trade out of this slot. However the second pick has divided Rams fans. I'm glad Giff took Clowney so I won't be compelled to list the reasons that won't happen. There is one more pick I don't think will happen and that's Sammy Watkins. Counting newly signed Kenny B...

Per Netflix, I watched the first disc of season one of "Girls" tonight. No that's not the confession...it was pretty good. The confession is I dated a girl very close to the Hannah character for a few years. Not like her 'boyfriend' dates her on the show but as an actual boyfriend. My girl...
