Here’s a little video of one of my first Madden 11 franchise games for the 2010 season, 49ers versus the Bucs. Huge pass from Alex Smith to Vernon Davis, endzone to endzone. It wasn’t the pass, but the yards after the catch that were crucial.
Kinda neat how I can save highlights, upload them to EA, and then embed them elsewhere. ;)
MLB racks up another hero
Uh oh, he’s in trouble. Him and Barry Bonds!
Seven-time Cy Young Award winner Roger Clemens was indicted by a federal grand jury Thursday for allegedly lying to Congress about using steroids and growth hormone. The criminal case writes a new chapter in one of Major League Baseball’s worst scandals, the rampant use of performance enhancing drugs.
A six-count indictment alleges that Clemens obstructed a congressional inquiry with 15 different statements that he made under oath in 2008, including denials that he had ever used steroids or human growth hormone. The indictment says that he lied and committed perjury regarding the same matters.
Scottie’s in the Hall of Fame, was his time with Jordan the best?

Michael Jordan and Pippen truly were one of sports most dynamic duos, but were they the best duo of all-time? It’s tough to quantify that claim across various team sports, but they’re definitely on the leaderboard with Montana-Rice, Shaq-Kobe, Ruth-Gehrig among others. What are the criteria for great sports duos? Longevity, championships and records are [...]
Thanks, Glen Coffee, for leaving us
Now that 49ers runningback Glen Coffee decided to quit football a year after he started, the new rookie Anthony Dixon ran all over the Colts yesterday. But hey, we love our runningbacks. As such, the San Francisco 49ers announced that they have signed RB Brian Westbrook to a one-year deal. One of the most electrifying [...]
TGIFinley!
One of my up-and-coming football players this year, Jermichael Finley (Twitter / Facebook) has a website, I found out. He’s also selling T-shirts with his slogan “Thank Goodness It’s Finley” on them. He’s pretty awesome to watch fly across Twitter on a daily basis. I’ve been picking him up in every Fantasy Football league this [...]

Today two of the greatest football players of all time made it. The greatest receiver, and one of the greatest runningbacks (despite playing for the Cowboys, yech!) That they are being enshrined in Canton was inevitable. That they are receiving the sport’s most prestigious individual honor together as part of the Class of 2010 is [...]
Favre calls it quits. Again.
Following up on my previous story, it looks more and more like Favre is announcing his retirement. Again. I actually believe Brett Favre will announce his decision, a la “The Favre Decision”, during a 2-hour prime time special that will make LeBron James jealous. And just as Brett is about to make his decision to [...]
Will he stay or will he go?
Yes, here we are again. It’s that time of year, where we sit and make fun of ourselves being on “on the edge of our seats” regarding Brett Favre’s decision to play in the NFL again or not. Personally, I hope he calls it quits. In my 6 Fantasy Football leagues, I didn’t pick up [...]
Ochocinco draws more hate

Hate to love him, or love to hate him? Personally, I think Chad Ochocinco of the Cincinnati Bengals is hilarious. Unlike his new teammate Terrell Owens, “85″ brings forth comedy both on and off the field. Pittsburgh Steelers left tackle Max Starks wasn’t amused by Chad Ochocinco’s recent trash talking. According to an interview Friday [...]
