Overrated: Coaches Who Get More Credit Than They Deserve

Contender or Pretander: Determining the UFC’s Number One Contenders

The NBA So Far: Jennings and Hawks Surprising Us All

Heading into the 2009-10 NBA season it seemed like the league was going to be a little too predictable.

Half Way Home: The NFL Midseason Awards

We have officially hit the midway point of the NFL season and this much is for sure: not much is for sure. The Saints, Vikings, Colts and Patriots are all good. As far as the rest of the league goes, there are a whole lot of questions and not many answers. It’s time to hand [...]

Welcome to the Jungle: Are the Bengals for Real?

When the so-called “experts” made their pre-season predictions for the 2009-10 NFL season, teams like the Texans and 49ers were trendy sleeper picks. Not many people though (myself included), expected Marvin Lewis and the Cincinnati Bengals to be 6-2 and in control of the AFC North at the midway point of the season.
