I had been planning on attending the Dolphins @ Jets game since the schedule came out. A week before the game I made the decision to drive up from Atlanta for it, but then the problem arose: It’s a Monday night game, how am I going to watch football on Sunday?! I devised a plan [...]
Welcome back to our Friday Pickups Column, the purpose of this column is to identify long shot players who have chances of becoming fantasy stars. I put the column out on Fridays (or Saturdays depending on how “on it” I am) so you can get the players before the waiver period starts. This allows you [...]
I hate the dolphins and their fans more than any other entity in sports (even more than, Red Sox, the MonStars, the bad guys in “Victory”, the 1972 Russian Olympic Basketball team and Cobra Kai), so when the schedule came out, I knew exactly where I would be the night of October 17th. In recent [...]
by Sean McKenna Sports are the only true reality television. The last six weeks of the MLB season and leading up to the World Series, have been theatrical, emotional, inspirational and often painful.

Hopefully you listened and are about to embark on a magical (well, Christian) journey to your league title with Timmy. The purpose of [...]
Big weekend for Lola Sports Talk Chicago Fire @ DC United 10/15 This late season match up between these two middling teams will be my third MLS game this year. I’m very excited to visit the storied RFK Stadium. Philadelphia Eagles @ Washington Redskins 10/16 Michael Vick will be returning to the scene of his [...]
The week that was: Super Bowl MVP Mark Rypien’s daughter, Angela, made her debut in the Lingerie Football League At first I was abhorred by the level of sexism and the exclusionary nature of this league (sorry big girls, we’ll just have poor blocking then). I thought Lingerie Football was a once a year thing [...]
This column is officially FINO (Friday in Name Only). It’s purpose is to highlight long shots with good long term potential. Right now the free agent market is thinner than Matt Hasselback’s hair, but this is what we got. Running backs you may have forgotten about: Montario Hardesty The Browns may be on bye, but [...]
