60-Minutes…..Tick…Tick…Tick…

With the Patriots, and Colts for that matter, playing meaningless games for the remainder of the season, it brings about the question of the two top teams in the AFC resting their starters.
The 2007 Pats and the 2007 Colts are two franchises looking in opposite directions. Indianapolis might be looking to rest guys, like Peyton [...]

How the [...]

Athletes contemplate but choose wisely

This is an article that I wrote during my sophomore year at McDaniel College about collegiate athletes (mainly at McDaniel) and performance enhancement drugs. I talked to wrestlers, football, lacrosse and baseball players. This is what I found out from talking with these Division III student athletes.

At one point in time steroids came to the [...]

Patriots Blowout could mean end for Brian Billick

Today’s Boston Herald featured Baltimore Ravens beat writer and columnist Mike Preston’s article about Ravens coach Brian Billick. In Boston, Preston’s closest analogy is former-Globe Patriots writer Ron Borges. During Billick’s time in Baltimore, Preston has always called for Billick’s removal as Ravens coach so his article in today’s Herald’s “Behind Enemy Lines” section is [...]

If Feeley can be a pro Quarterback so can Matt Ryan..

Completing 64.3% of his passes, A.J. Feeley kept Philadelphia in the game, even giving the Eagles a 28-21 lead a one point. But the Patriots offense was too good for the Philadelphia defense mostly because of Field General Tom Brady and Josh McDaniels and Bill Belichick in the bunkers.
There were many times during the game [...]

Just sit back and enjoy this..

I’m going out on a limb here and say I do not see the Patriots losing a game for the rest of year. In a previous post I said Pittsburgh would be a tough game, I’m having a change of heart. After the Steelers lost to the Jets (one of the worst teams in football) [...]

It’s not about the Talent….

It has long been said that if Tom Brady had the same receivers as Peyton Manning, Brady would be just as good, if not better, than Manning. This season Brady has the receivers and is proving that he just as good as Manning to the national media. But as I watched the Colts game last [...]

Bye Week

With the Patriots inactive this week, we look forward to the remaining seven games on the Pats schedule. After beating the Colts last week there are only two teams on the Pats schedule, from here on, that are in the way of the Pats going undefeated: the Steelers and the Giants.
While New England and Indianapolis [...]

"High School Never Ends…"

The Patriots are the new bully that used to take your lunch money, stuff you in lockers then like the snap of a finger become the victim.
After the Pats put a beating on the Jets in the opening game of the season, the Jets played the role of the geeky, four-eyed, loner and tattled on [...]
