Minnesota has never seen a performance at the quarterback postition like the one Brett Favre gave them Sunday.áThey'll likely never see another one like it after Number Four is finally retired for good, either.

Mets Can’t Be Bothered to Play Spoiler

Posted: 29th September 2009 by gozer in MLB
There are only five games left for the Metsùthank God. Once the 162nd game is played, we can then turn our attention to brighter and happier pastimes, such as starting petitions to get Omar Minaya and Jerry Manuel fired, drinking so much tequila that we forget this season (or decade) ever happened and forming an angry mob while chasing the Mets out of town after SundayÆs game with pitchforks and ...

As Always, Packers Want Brett Favre to Try and Win It

Posted: 29th September 2009 by Peter Bukowski in NFL
I've never seen Packers fans so down after a 20-point road win. The Rams were without their quarterback, they have no receivers, and they haven't won a game since George W. Bush was in office, but the Packers put it to the Rams on Sunday. It was closer than it should have been for a while, but ultimately the Packers' superior talent and improved resolve took over. ...

Will Tyler Thigpen Save The Dolphins?

Posted: 29th September 2009 by Christopher Leone in NFL
The Kansas City Chiefs have just traded quarterback Tyler Thigpen to the Miami Dolphins for an undisclosed draft pick. Thigpen, 25, was the Chiefs' starting quarterback for much of last season, scoring 22 touchdowns (18 passing, three rushing, and one receiving) after supplanting the injured Brodie Croyle and Damon Huard. However, Thigpen was supplanted in the offseason by former New England Patriot Matt Cassel, who filled in admirably for Tom Brady when ...

Bruins Look For Another Fast Start

The Bruins 2008-2009 run to the best record in the Eastern Conference started early.á Boston jumped out to a 5-3-3 record which on the surface does not look spectacular.á However, this month allowed the team to establish its identity, as well as a stable lineup which went on to steamroll the rest of the league in November, December and January. This time around the team comes into the season with arguably ...

Why The Dolphins Should Trade For Michael Vick

Posted: 29th September 2009 by Gordon Garner in NFL
The Miami Dolphins should make a trade with the Philadelphia Eagles. They should go after Michael Vick. From the Eagles standpoint, trading away Vick could make a lot of sense. They have their franchise quarterback in Donovan McNabb, and he is expected to be back on the field for their next game. In McNabb's absence, Kevin Kolb has proven he can be effective at the position. In the last two weeks ...
