The Saints Demolish the Patriots

December 1, 2009

Ugh.
It started out well — the defense kept the New Orleans Saints to 3 points, then the New England Patriots offense marched 80 yards to score a touchdown on their first drive of the night.  Woo hoo!

2009 NFL Schedule Released

April 14, 2009

My two favorite sports to watch are football and the men’s college basketball tournaments.  If the Celtics are doing well, then I’ll watch the NBA playoffs.  I’m going to try once again to get into baseball this year — each season I get more into it so the trend line on the baseball-fan-in-me is good.  [...]

Stop the Presses! Brett Favre Retires… Again

February 11, 2009

Where have I heard this before?
That’s right, every single NFL post-season since Noah was trying to tick off “two emus” from his list!

Tom Brady is Hurt

September 7, 2008

I’m sure all of you with Tom Brady on your fantasy teams were hoping for more than one quarter out of the two-time Super Bowl MVP and the man who holds the single-season touchdown record for quarterbacks at 50, but football is a contact sport and people get hurt.  But why did it have to be [...]
