Independence Day & Sports

During the month of July I was thinking about the impact that democracy in our country has had on sports in the United States. While I’m not sure our forefathers envisioned professional, collegiate, and interscholastic and youth sports being as comprehensive as they are today when they signed the Declaration of Independence, they did pave the […]

One Last Time

Pissed off. That’s how I feel every time I’m at work and I get ESPN alerts on my phone. This swimmer broke some obscure record, that player had an insane slam dunk. I don’t care. Almost every time I immediately flick away the notification and get back to figuring out where the next orders of tacos […]

2015 Boston College Football Preview

<iframe width=”420″ height=”315″ src=”https://www.youtube.com/embed/WD_vWWp3nFU” frameborder=”0″ allowfullscreen></iframe> The job Steve Addazio’s done with this Boston College program is pretty much the exact opposite type of magic trick that “The Joker” is doing in this scene, but no less impressive.

2015 Miami Football Preview

<iframe width=”560″ height=”315″ src=”https://www.youtube.com/embed/MapmxTJ6mvg” frameborder=”0″ allowfullscreen></iframe> “The U” was easily the baddest college football team of the late 80s and early 90s, and put together a run in the early 2000s that produced one of the greatest college football teams of all time. Ever since then, Miami has been trying to recapture that glory. They […]

2015 N.C. State Football Preview

<iframe width=”560″ height=”315″ src=”https://www.youtube.com/embed/0HND8ywYcC0″ frameborder=”0″ allowfullscreen></iframe> I’ve already written in this preview series about defending conference champions being overlooked for trendier picks (see: Northern Illinois and UCF), but N.C. State is a slightly different story. The Wolfpack are easier to overlook with Florida State, Clemson and Louisville in the same division. The Pack took a […]

NFL Preview 2015: AFC Team-By-Team Reports, Predictions

Training camp is here (for some teams), so that means the NFL season is getting closer and closer (finally). So like I did for the NBA and MLB, I’ll be going team-by-team and taking a look at what all the AFC squads have the potential to do and whether or not they can fulfill it. […]
