Let's Root for Scott Niedermayer's Failure

I am a bitter, vindictive person. Know that. To compound the issue, I once read a quote that goes, "The only true loyalty in sports lies with the fans, for their team. Everything else is temporal and an illusion."...

Is the Mets Pitching Staff Better This Year Than Last?

Yes. It's really that simple, but Tom4 would never allow me to write a one-word blog. He's picky like that. The questions surrounding the Mets this year were all about the pitching staff. But people forget that the Mets...

Hancock's Father Sues Restaurant, Tow Company

I held my tongue during the whole Josh Hancock thing. At first it was tragic and there was nothing I could say that hadn't been said already. Then the word came out that he was drunk, not wearing his...

Portis Ruins Images

For awhile, everyone liked Clinton Portis. But because of his smarts, that's about to change. You see, he's the guy -- probably the only guy -- who backs Michael Vick in the dog fighting fiasco. And he's not saying...

What Will Happen With Roger?

Roger Clemens has started to work his way to an eventual June start for the Yankees. I've had a couple of weeks to think about it and there are several possible outcomes to Roger's most recent return from retirement....

You Got Served...Donald Trump/Mark Cuban Edition

It's been a while since our last installment of "You Got Served," but this one is too good to ignore: Trump said, "Mark Cuban is a guy who . . . puts so much pressure on the players. He...

Yankee Fans...They're Very Creative

This video comes courtesy of the mothership, but it's an all-too-familiar sight. Nobody gets spared from the Yankee bleacher bums' brilliant -- and incredibly matured -- "YMCA" adaptation. I have to admit to enjoying the bleacher experience at Yankee...

You Could See This One Coming...

I really feel for Donovan McNabb. He's been everything you'd want in a quarterback -- a great player, a great leader, smart, well-respected in the locker room (mostly) -- yet he's had to deal with more people publically calling...

O.J's Last Resort Stop: Outback Steak House

O.J. Simpson. Knife. Once-living being. OK, now get that picture out of your head. He was proven not guilty! This story involves the Juice actually being denied before ripping into tender meat with a sharp object. The owner of...

Here You Go

That's the 12th round of Saturday's supposedly-incredible De La Hoya/Mayweather fight, which you might have heard about if you weren't in a coma for the last few months. Sadly (actually, I'm pretty OK with it) I didn't see the...

Cecil & Prince

I love father-son success stories in sports. Genes are a curious thing. If you're Tony Soprano, you hate the fact that your son is miserable like you. But if you're Cecil Fielder, you've got to be pretty happy with...

Desperate Times...

I guess it worked. When I arrived to our weekly wiffleball game, it was the first thing anybody brought up to me. I got an e-mail from my boss, a Yankee fan, with the subject "a very special day."...

Don Imus Was Forced Into Racism

It's about time this Don Imus thing get buried like the dead horse it is (insert Barbaro joke here). What he said was stupid, no doubt. Should he have been fired? I don't think so. I don't exactly find...

The Yankees Are Still Losing

The FanHouse asks a question today -- whose fault is it that the Yankees are the new Devil Rays? The fans blame the players. Steinbrenner blames Torre. And nobody blames Brian Cashman, even though he's a giant dork. But...

How to Deal With Sports Overload

It's a tough time to follow sports. I didn't realize it until my friend Mike pointed it out to me, but here in the NY/NJ area, we're having a tough time watching it all. And I'm sure we're not...
