For both the Norwich Cadets and the Vermont Catamounts it was a weekend to host hockey teams above them in the conference standings. The results could not have been more different. The Cadets, out of the USCHO Top 15 nationally in Division Three for the first time since 2009, made a statement. They topped the […]
I think the Super Bowl pre-game show has already started and if I can I will try to only tune into the Super Bowl at kick-off time. Here goes: Super Bowl teams who are #1 in defense are 8-0, but I’m going against that trend mainly because even though I think the Denver defense is […]
What they say is true … all good things must come to an end, and so it is for the Norwich University hockey Cadets streak of regular season titles … the Cadets run of 17 straight will end this month … Norwich was officially eliminated on Saturday. It has been a frustrating campaign for Norwich […]

With that knowledge how is it that he finishes in the top 5 in NFL statistics, and […]
As a coach, and a broadcaster I find some things tend to get on my nerves. I’m sure I get on other coaches nerves too! One of the things that I have noticed of late is coaches have made a habit of pressing late in games when they are down by 20 points or so. […]
It was about the defense! The Denver defense! They were great and the Patriots defense was great too! A few thoughts: I thought the Patriots would win the game, but it did worry me that the game was in Denver. History shows that the team that gets the home field in the Manning-Brady duels wins! […]
Patriots 27 | Denver 17 … Carolina 31 | Arizona 20 There now you won’t have to waste your Sunday watching football. You’re Welcome.
I’ll cut right to the chase and it’s all guessing anyway. Patriots over Denver in AFC and Carolina over Arizona in NFC. Let the games begin!
