Patriots On The Bye, But Still Making Headlines
The Patriots don't have a game this weekend, but they remain in the headlines thanks to yesterday's deal for troubled Tampa cornerback Aqib Talib.

Celtics Should Just Concede Rest of Season
In the world of sports talk radio - a world which I am becoming more and more disillusioned with - Tuesday night's Celtics loss to Miami is reviewed in terms of absolutes. The Celtics can't beat the Heat. Jeff Green sucks. Rondo is still a punk, and KG is classless. Apparently they should not even … Continue reading Celtics Should Just Concede Rest of Season

John Farrell Impresses In Introduction, Now Has Plenty Of Work To Get To
The Red Sox formally introduced John Farrell as their 46th manager in team history yesterday, and if there was one takeaway from the day - including the press conference and the numerous on-air and print interviews Farrell did - it is that he couldn't be more unlike his immediate predecessor. Speaking of which, Bobby Valentine … Continue reading John Farrell Impresses In Introduction, Now Has Plenty Of Work To Get To
Wrapping up Patriots-Jets, new era for Sox starts today
Although it wasn't pretty, a win is a win, and the Patriots are now in first place in the AFC East despite having many flaws. The main concern for me surprisingly is not the secondary, it's the offenses inability to close out games. For the third time in six games, the Patriots blew a two … Continue reading Wrapping up Patriots-Jets, new era for Sox starts today
Patriots Suffer Worst Win of Brady/Belichick Era, Sox Get Their Man
The Patriots did manage to win the football game yesterday, though it surely won't seem like it for much of this week, as once again they couldn't hold onto a fourth quarter lead, and instead appeared to hand the game to the New York Jets when Devin McCourty fumbled a kickoff return with two minutes … Continue reading Patriots Suffer Worst Win of Brady/Belichick Era, Sox Get Their Man
