What’s the big deal? I remember when there was a Los Angeles Chargers. Yes the San Diego Chargers started out as the Los Angeles Chargers in the old American Football league and were there for one year before they moved to San Diego.

Don’t like the talk in the Boston media about how easy it will be for the Patriots to beat Houston on Saturday night. Maybe it will be easy maybe not, but this is an NFL team we’re talking about. “On Any Given Sunday or Saturday” whatever the case might be. It’s a cliche, but I truly […]

With all the talk of the meaningless bowl games in college football, the two worst games were the two that counted…the Peach Bowl and the Fiesta Bowl. Hope the national championship game is better. It was last year. Many of the meaningless bowl games have been great and the Rose Bowl yesterday was a classic! I […]

The NFL regular seoson is over and it’s on to the playoffs. The Patriots got what they wanted and they will have the #1 seed in the AFC. It doesn’t guarantee anything, but not having the #1 seed cost them last year. The Giants have the #5 seed in the NFC and will be at Green […]
