Two Chicago NFL teams: the Crosstown Classic we need
2009-11-15 22:29:00 What Chicago needs is another football team. You really feel it on a Sunday when the weather is relatively horrible (compared with yesterday) and there is no Bears game, and with half an eye you're watching Brett Favre in purple. If Brett Favre can be in purple Chicago can have another NFL team. ...
Big Ten Teams Batting .500: Where Mediocrity And Bowl Eligibility Collide
2009-11-13 00:18:00 As the Big Ten football season winds down, all eleven teams in the conference still have hopes of finishing their schedules with the six wins necessary to become bowl-eligible.(And I thought parity only happened in the NFL.)While simply having enough victories to qualify for the postseason doesn't automatically ensure a bowl berth, five teams have already hit the magic number and are looking forward to a likely postseason trip: Iowa, Ohio State, Wisconsin, Penn State, and Northwestern.After that quintet, things get much murkier. Both Indiana and Purdue need wins in their final two games to finish at 6-6, so at least one of the in-state rivals will be staying home for the holidays (the two schools meet in the regular-season...
Teams Reacting to Influenza 2009 style.
2009-11-07 18:11:00 Last week I had a chance to talk to the coaches of both Chicago Wolves and the Rockford IceHogs on the same subject"what are you doing to help your teams stay healthy during this pandemic?" First both teams have programs in place and are taking common sense measures. Every player has their own water bottle, no sharing allowed, separate towels, hand sanitizer rules the locker rooms. Each team has seen to it that every player has had a seasonal flu shot. Both coach Bill Peters of the IceHogs and Don Lever of the Wolves denied that there had been any players receiving H11N1 vaccinations due to high risk status. Coach Peters also said the Hogs would receive H1N1 vaccines when...

Should Teams Stop Players From Representing Their Countries?
2009-08-20 15:20:00 The Dallas Mavericks are one of many teams that have not allowed their players from playing for their respective countries this summer. Dirk Nowitzki wasn't allowed to represent Germany, while J.J. Barea wasn't allowed to play for Puerto Rico. This issue creeps up with teams all the time.I'm going to tackle it from a team and players standpoint, then give my thoughts on it.If I pay guys millions of dollars to play basketball, why risk fatigue or injury for something that doesn't affect what your team's doing? That's how owners think. They think more about what it does for their endeavor, rather than the players themselves.I think of the case of Zydrunas Ilgauskas. A couple years back, he wanted to play for Lithuania. The Cavs declined because of his long injury history. While Z is now healthy for the most part, I'm sure the Cavs would still not allow it. That's just how these teams are with guys that get hurt.But then you look at what the Spurs and Lakers have done. The Spur...

Top Ten Teams You Could Root for Instead of the Cubs
2009-07-03 09:00:00 Note: We're going to take a trip in the way, way back machine with a rerun because I'm heading out of town for the weekend for some good old fashioned debauchery at the lake. This list was published in October of last year shortly after the Cubs came up short against the Dodgers in the playoffs. If you listen to talk radio as much as I do, you've heard quite a few Cubs fans calling in to denounce their allegiance to the team and claim they just can't take it anymore. You and I both know that the majority of these fans will be back. They'll swear off the Cubs from now until spring training and when the boys of...
Five Teams I Would Rather NOT BE Than Us
2009-04-30 20:12:00 Awww. Buck up, little camper. It could be worse There's been a bit of panic in LOHOland lo these past few days. Not that I blame people for panicking. We are, after all, rather stinky as of late, and we are, after all, the Cubs. So I forgive all of you chicken littles out there who have momentarily taken a break from screeching about the swine flu to screech, instead, about the end of our season. But let's take a moment to look at the facts: We're currently in (gulp) 5th place, looking up at the Cards, Brewers, Reds, and Pirates. Given our pre-season analysis (read: laughter) of those teams, how hard do you think they'll be to catch? Do you really think the Cards are going to keep going like this? Do you think the Brewers and their non-pitching staff are going to last into October> Do you honestly believe Dusty isn't going to run the Reds into the ground? Of course you don't. With that in mind, and with an eye towards making everyone feel better, let's take a look at 5 Teams...

Sean's 2009 Fantasy Baseball Teams
2009-04-06 15:13:00 If you're ever going to get a flat tire, I highly recommend that it happens on I-66 Eastbound between Courthouse and Rosslyn on a late Sunday afternoon when the weather is perfect and you can maneuver your car into the shoulder on an exit ramp. Thanks to the Virginia State officer and AAA guy who were both extremely nice and arrived quickly. I wish I could write something funny here, but my tire is being fixed as I type this, and there's not much else to the story.Meanwhile, I participated in my second of two National League-only fantasy baseball league drafts this weekend and figured that I would share my results. I know that no one cares about other people's fantasy teams, so that's why I included the flat tire story above. Anyway, these are both keeper leagues which is why I have Hanley Ramirez at $19.Here is my roster in the league I really, really care about (this is the 19th year of the league and my 18th season in it; I have never finished in 1st):Bengie Molina C SF $10 ...

The Knicks Are One of the Most Entertaining Teams!
2009-01-29 15:16:00 Mike D'Antoni's face turns bright red after a blown call in the post, Nate Robinson parades down the bench after every made basket; this encompasses the sheer entertainment value of the Knicks. They are truly one of the most entertaining teams in the NBA.High and LowsIt's fun to watch this team go from happy to sad and back again. When they get on a run, you can feel the energy just watching it. Nate Robinson pumps his fist, QRich bounces up and down and they get up and bump each other once the other team calls a timeout. They typically will let a team back into the game at some time, then frustration insues. Robinson wears his emotions on his sleeve, D'Antoni yells and begs for more out of his squad.Robinson's AnticsNate Robinson has to be one of my favorite Knicks. It's not even because of his play, it's because of his pure enthusiasm.

NBA Live Being Used By NBA Teams, Results May Vary
2008-12-01 01:40:00 NBA teams are starting to use Live 2009 to see the potential in player trades, or a player's effectiveness when they have the ball. NBA Live, a powerful training and research tool? Some NBA teams are using NBA Live 09 as a testing device to explore the potential impact of trades and other front office roster decisions. In an interview with the Los Angeles Times, Rockets GM Daryl Morey said that he uses it to gauge team effectiveness when certain players have the ball. He elaborated with an example:... you can tell how often, if [Kevin] Love throws an outlet pass, how often his team scores on the possession. You can tell how often [O.J.] Mayo goes right versus left, how effective the team is with Mayo pulling up and shooting versus when he pulls up and passes instead.The article goes on to state that up to 15 teams are currently using Electronic Arts? latest basketball product to their own advantage. What makes NBA Live 09 better than the competition, NBA 2K9, is a feature called D...

Maryland, Navy football score road upsets over top 25 teams
2008-09-30 16:26:00 Saturday, September 27 became a memorable day for road upsets in local college football as the Maryland Terrapins took down #20 ranked Clemson, 20-17, while the Navy Midshipmen followed with an even more stunning win over #16 ranked Wake Forest, 24-17.Maryland's win was propelled by Darrius Heyward-Bey who made a 76-yard run during one touchdown drive and made the score outright on a second drive to key the second-half comeback effort. Clemson's first-half offensive dominance was largely shuttered in half two. At 4-1 with a game at hapless Virginia next, Maryland is now primed to reach to make a run in the wide open ACC title chase.By contrast, the Navy Midshipmen scored their upset win based largely on their first half effort, triggering five turnovers against the plagued Wake Forest squad. Eric Kettani ran for 175 yards total as Navy held on for the win. With a 3-2 mark and a schedule to eventually get easier, the Mids should now be favored to gain the six wins needed for D.C.'...

Iowa Floods - Police "Strike Teams" Invade Homes, Harass Flood Victims
2008-06-18 15:23:00 I just saw this on YouTube and had to post it. Here's the description from the video itself:Cops break down doors, threaten residents who question them as part of martial law conditioning, authorities prevent people from re-entering their homesShocking footage out of Cedar Rapids Iowa shows cops and government employee "strike teams" breaking into houses of flood victims and threatening anyone who questions their actions in complete violation of the 4th amendment right that protects against unlawful search and seizure.No warrant, no knock home invasions are being carried out on the flimsy pretext of "checking for structural damage" as cops harass and threaten with arrest people who refuse to have their homes ransacked by thugs in uniforms.Cedar Rapids police chief Greg Graham promised residents over the weekend that "Law enforcement officers are not entering homes," and that firefighters would only enter homes through unlocked doors and windows yet the video clearly shows locked h...
What's With Those Florida Teams? [Carl Crawford, Evan Longoria]
2008-06-10 11:18:00 So, even though Tampa has fallen back to second place behind Boston in the AL East, I'd still like to take a look at their offense and their staff to try to see why they've had such success and whether it will be sustainable over this year and the next few. The first guy I want to talk about is Carl Crawford. I have to say, I think he's been one of the most overrated fantasy players over the past few years. There is no denying that he will have a high average, score runs, and steal bases. Of course, historically, he has been unable to be an elite run producer because there's been nobody to drive him in. But I have always felt that his lack of power means he doesn't belong in the first or second round, where he has consistently been drafted. That being said, I believe his numbers so far are too low, and he is a great guy to target in your mid-season trades. His BABIP is under .300 (after a .375 mark last season!), which is way too low for a guy with his speed. He's walking mor...

Bad teams find ways to lose
2008-06-09 03:29:00 I thought for the longest time that Willie Randolph was to blame for last year's collapse and the slow start to this year, I believed that this team was too good to be playing this bad and it's the manager who is responsible for getting the most out of his players.But after watching the Mets get swept this weekend by the San Diego Padres I was reminded of an old baseball adage, bad teams find ways to lose. Each night someone stepped up to find a way to lose and it's been that way for 32 games of this season. There isn't one aspect of this team that has been consistent throughout the year, whether it's the lack of clutch hitting, base running blunders, costly fielding errors or inconsistent starters and relievers for more losses then wins someone on this team steps up to lose a game. I'm sadly coming to the realization that this team isn't as good as I thought it was, they may not be under achieving they just might not be that good. If this team keeps losing like this maybe we...

What's with those Florida Teams? [Hanley Ramirez, Dan Uggla]
2008-05-30 11:00:00 Oh, those first place Florida Teams! The Florida Marlins and Tampa Bay Rays are both having stellar seasons, and leading their respective divisions. How is it that the teams from down South can dominate their northern rivals?The first key to Florida's success is Hanley Ramirez, who belonged in conversations with Chase Utley in April but has actually faded in May. Still, project his numbers over a whole season and you've got outstanding five-category production. The good news about Ramirez is that his walk rate is up, but the bad news is that he's striking out 25% of the time and his slugging percentage is way down (even though he's still hitting homers, he's barely hitting any doubles). His May slump could potentially - hopefully - be attributed to manager Fredi Gonzalez moving him into the third spot. However, he was moved back to leadoff last week, and so far hasn't set the world on fire (.690 OPS). Still, Ramirez is one of the game's great hitters, and there's no doubt he...
