April 13, 2009Not sure what to say here other than I’m stunned. Phillies legendary announcer Harry Kalas passed out in the Nationals press box today and was rushed to the hospital. He was later pronounced dead.
The cause of death hasn’t been released at this time, but Kalas did undergo surgery in February which caused him [...]
If it seems like we are talking about the Bills constantly, it’s because we are. Marshawn Lynch, Roscoe Parrish, Terrell Owens, and don’t forget about Jason Peters.
Tim Graham of ESPN.com says that the Bills aren’t close to either trading or signing tackle Jason Peters. He is an elite tackle, but the Bills still [...]
Oliver Perez gave up eight runs in just 4 1/3 innings as the Mets fell to the Cincinnati Reds 8-6 today.
Many New York Metro area denizens were crushed as the Mets had hopes of an undefeated season not long ago. The loss drops them to 2-1 and speculation is rampant they could slide into [...]
Roger Goodell decided recently that he’d prefer that NFL players didn’t get arrested on weapons charges. How do we know? Well, he suspended Marshawn Lynch for three games after Lynch was arrested in California on gun charges back in February. A search of the car that Lynch was riding in produced a [...]
April 9, 2009Los Angeles Angels pitcher Nick Adenhart was killed in a felony hit-and-run car accident early Thursday morning in Fullerton, CA, according to TMZ.
Hours after the 22-year old finished pitching in a game, police say a minivan blew threw a stoplight and caused Adenhart’s Mitsubishi to hit a light pole, killing three people including Adenhart.
The person [...]
How do the Bengals not know that when they sign people like this, everyone is looking at them laughing? The Bengals have signed former Bear and former Cowboy Tank Johnson.
Johnson was suspended eight games in 2007 for multiple violations of the Personal Conduct Policy. He also served two months in prison [...]
The Dallas Morning News made a great decision in asking Cowboys TE Martellus Bennett to blog for them. He struggles a bit with the written word, but it shouldn’t matter because his keen insight on life will make up for it. So what does he blog about? Women farting. We’re serious. [...]
April 6, 2009CC Sabathia, the big pitcher that the Yankees got a great deal on in the offseason, decided that rather than throw a baseball to a catcher repeatedly, he would just take a big wet dump on the pitchers mound.
The Yankees are currently down 6-3 and Sabathia left in the fifth inning after giving [...]
This is great. I don’t know why I am a fan of Sean Avery. Yes, he is, by most counts, a dick. But I just don’t think this is that bad. Funny? Yes. Would I be pissed if he did it to me? Yes.

It’s confirmed. The Oakland Raiders have signed 39-year old Jeff Garcia to a contract.
Stay tuned to other sports websites with access to better information to stay on top of this big story. Jeff Garcia played with the Philadelphia Eagles in 2006. He also played with the 49ers at one [...]
LA Clippers forward Zach Randolph was arrested early Monday morning on suspicion of drunken driving. Officers spotted his Rolls-Royce (seriously? Zach Randolph has a Rolls?) weaving on Interstate 405 following the Clips loss to the Lakers.
Police smelled booze inside the car and promptly arrested him. He was later free on $5,000 bail. [...]
After falling last night to the Atlanta Braves 4-1 at home, the defending World Champion Philadelphia Phillies have found themselves in the basement of the NL East. The surprising Atlanta Braves have rocketed to the top and could have an insurmountable lead on the Mets and Phils, both of whom were picked by most [...]
April 6, 2009Former Jacksonville Jaguars first-round pick and current free agent WR Reggie Williams was arrested Sunday night in Houston on felony drug charges. The substance is believed to be cocaine (he did play with Matt Jones after all) and he even had to be tasered, which means he was most likely fully cooperating with police. [...]
April 5, 2009NBC Bay Area has confirmed that free agent QB Jeff Garcia is negotiating with the Raiders to be their backup QB. A source tells the station that a deal is “close. It will probably get done.”
Garcia would be an excellent insurance policy if JaMarcus Russell doesn’t progress.
A league source tells PFT that despite doing and saying all the right things, Jason Campbell is “pissed” about the team’s attempt to land Jay Cutler.
We don’t think that Campbell has gotten an entirely fair shake so far in the pro’s due to the fact that he seems to have to learn a new offense [...]
Phillies ace and World Champion pitcher Cole Hamels is on schedule to start on April 10th at Colorado. He tweaked his elbow earlier this spring and caused most of the 215 area code to hold their breath.
He pitched Saturday afternoon against the Rays in an exhibition game with mixed results. And when we [...]
This is interesting. The Redskins hosted former Pittsburgh Steeler, Atlanta Falcon and Jacksonville Jaguar QB Byron Leftwich on Friday. This comes days after the team tried to smooth over the situation with Jason Campbell after they failed to land Jay Cutler.
But for Leftwich, it was made clear that he would only [...]
The St. Louis Rams signed former 2003 first-round pick Kyle Boller. Terms of the deal were not disclosed, but we’re guessing the guaranteed money was in the $30 million range since he was on the market for so long.
“We are happy to add Kyle to our roster,” Rams head coach Steve Spagnuolo [...]
Former first-round bust and made-for-NFL QB Todd Marinovich is back in trouble for not showing up to a drug rehab appointment or whatever they are called. The programs were court-ordered after Marinovich pleaded guilty to possession of methamphetamine and resisting arrest two years ago.
A violation of his probation could result in three [...]
Mariners outfielder Ichiro Suzuki has been placed on the 15-day DL with a bleeding ulcer.
Still blogging from iPhone. Maybe Perry can post a picture?
I’m blogging from the iPhone. The NY Giants have released troubled wide receiver Plaxico Burress.
Stay tuned.
David Lennon of Newsday reports that the Mets could sign Gary Sheffield as early as tonight. Here is what he wrote:
The Mets have contacted Gary Sheffield directly to gauge his interest in coming to New York and a person familiar with the situation said today that he could sign with a club as soon [...]
The Broncos have sent Jay Cutler and a fifth-round pick to the Bears in exchange for two first-round picks, a third rounder and QB Kyle Orton.
It’s not clear at this time whether or not Cutler represents an upgrade over the Bears’ current group of QB.
This makes all those media reports look great. The Jets, [...]
The Philadelphia Flyers have signed former second-overall pick James Van Riemsdyk. They wanted to sign the left winger last year but he opted for another season at the University of New Hampshire.
His season came to an abrupt end when Boston University laid the smack down on them in the NCAA Tourney. Ok, BU [...]
This logo will supposedly be used on all merch, jerseys and other crap this season. Just thought we’d pass it along.
If you can’t tell, it’s designed to be a commemorative thing. Notice the Houston Oiler image there? Yeah, that’s because – and you may not know this – the Titans used [...]
Profootballtalk has been hearing rumors – and they emphasize rumors – that the Redskins are trying to move Jason Campbell. The QB was off to a very, very efficient start last year, but that faded just as the team did in 2008. He is signed through 2009 and we haven’t heard much in [...]
April 1, 2009For our new friend Mr. P. Peppers, who thoroughly ripped my opinion of Andre Iguodala (scroll down to Thaddeus Young post to read the fireworks) and clearly likes Perry better than me (who doesn’t?), here is a link to Andre Iguodala on Jimmy Fallon.
Mr. Peppers sent us this link and we like it. We’ve [...]
Our Twitter buddy Chris Iafolla posted a neat item today regarding April Fool’s Day. Most everyone does the “Donovan McNabb gets traded to Detroit Lions for Calvin Johnson” type crap. But he wrote up some things that should be jokes, but aren’t. Here is his list. And if you are a [...]
April 1, 2009The Cleveland Browns PR department has issued a statement regarding the Donte Stallworth situation. And by situation, I’m speaking of the one where he got drunk and killed a guy with his car.
The statement doesn’t say which employee of the team is saying this. So we’ll assume that it’s Brady Quinn.
“The [...]
Sixers small forward – who actually plays other positions because Andre Iguodala can’t hit a jump shot and just play the two – Thaddeus Young will be out 2-3 weeks with an injured ankle sustained in Tuesday night’s victory over the Atlanta Hawks.
The bone isn’t broken, but MRI results show a sprain and a bone [...]
