Doc Brown’s NFL Picks Against the Spread: Week 12

If history tells us anything, Doc Brown always follows an 0-3 week with a 3-0 week. That’s a good sign, but maybe not that great considering it should have been 1-2 if it weren’t for the refs screwing us on the Steelers/Chargers game. …

Mussina Hung ’em Up at the Perfect Time

On the mound, Mike Mussina didn’t show much emotion. He never had the fire or flare of a superstar, and never struck most Yankee fans as the type of stopper they expected to have for a guy making $19 mil a year in the final seasons of his …

Nice to See the Fans Show Up for the Puerto Rico Tip-Off Tournament

The O’Reilly Auto Parts Puerto Rico Tip-Off tournament is in effect for the second year in a row, giving us college hoops fans something to watch during the daytime. They have some strong teams participating in the tournament, including …

Video: Santonio Holmes Hit by Chris Crocker, Comes Up Woozy

I’ve posted lots of big hits here on the site, but I really feel bad for Santonio Holmes when I post this. He got crushed. Lit up. De-cleated. Destroyed. You could see how woozy he was after he got up from the shot, his legs all wobbly like he …

Troy Williamson vs. Brad Childress: Who Ya Got?

If pressed, I’d be willing to pay as much money as one month of the NFL Sunday Ticket costs to watch a cage match between Troy Williamson and Brad Childress. The way they’re going, it might actually happen. Last year Vikings head coach …

I Guess That Golota Fight Wasn’t Fixed

A few weeks ago I showed a video of Andrew Golota’s fight in China against Ray Austin. I railed on Golota pretty hard for getting knocked down in two seconds and for quitting after a round, claiming he had a biceps injury. It was a natural …

So That Double KO Was Pretty Sweet

This whole internet thing is pretty new to me. I’m just discovering what they call email, instant messaging, and YouTube videos. I had this vid sent to me because apparently I was in a cave for the entire week-long span that this video got over …

Jay-Z on Nets Signing LeBron: Decision Is Business, Not Personal, for James

On the evening when LeBron James was reaching yet another milestone in his young but brilliant NBA career, rapper and Nets owner Jay-Z was in the house. And why wouldn’t he be? He owns the team and he’s close with LeBron James. Naturally …

Writer Encouraging Free Agent Doom for the Yankees with A.J. Burnett

Look, the Yankees already do a good enough job screwing up their team via free agency without needing help from outsiders. Think Carl Pavano and Jaret Wright for starters. Last year, the front office listened to the writers who suggested they start …

Bill Belichick Offers Advice to Urban Meyer on Blowing Teams Out

Convenient that two pretty certified jerks are good friends inside the football coaching circle. Think about it: Bill Belichick and Urban Meyer have a lot in common; Belichick used to run up the score last year, Meyer’s doing it this year. …

Cowboys Holding Texas Stadium Auction of Collectibles, Memorabilia

If there’s one positive to teams moving into new stadiums — which so many seem to be doing lately — it’s the auctions they have of memorabilia from the old venue. For instance, my Uncle, a big Mets fan, plans to purchase a few …

Conspiracy Theory? Refs Screw Up Call, Steelers Don’t Cover vs. Chargers

So Sunday afternoon in Pittsburgh the Steelers had just kicked a field goal taking an 11-10 lead on the Chargers. San Diego had one play left after the kickoff and decided to throw over the middle where they attempted to lateral their way up the …

Jim Fassel Says He Got Along with Al Davis, Wants Raiders Coaching Job

Apparently Jim Fassel is really desperate to get back in the NFL as a head coach. So desperate that he has the death wish to coach the Raiders, which is more of a curse than a privilege. Fassel apparently wrote a letter to Al Davis expressing his …

Donovan McNabb Didn’t Know There Were Ties, Cost His Team?

One of the more embarrassing games in the NFL this year occurred on Sunday in Cincinnati where the Bengals and Eagles played to a 13-13 tie. Neither team was able to score in the overtime period, resulting in the game being called as a tie — …

Video: Shaq Flagrant Foul on Rodney Stuckey a Matter of Physics

Between the fight with the Rockets last week and this, Shaq sure has been getting physical lately. Some of the Suns players thought it was wrong for Shaq to be ejected for this foul on Rodney Stuckey, and Terry Porter said after the game that …

Video: Chris Beanie Wells Hurdles Illinois Defender, He’s Got Hops

We’ve already had a couple of notable hurdles make the front page here at LBS this year. One came earlier in the college season courtesy of Knowshon Moreno, the other was recently achieved by Giants tight end, Kevin Boss. This airborne move by …
