New York Rangers Call Up Corey Locke From Hartford, Now Give Him Real Minutes
Posted: 29th March 2010 by Frank Castaldi in NHL
The 25-year-old center will be joining fellow Wolf Pack teammates P.A. Parenteau and Andres Eriksson, who were also recently called up by the New York Rangers.
Locke, who leads the Hartford Wolf Pack in scoring with 80 points, will get some pro experience due to the injuries of Ryan Callahan and Sean Avery.
Locke tallied 29 goals and 51 assists through 73 games with the Wolf Pack this season, which is good ...
Chris Berman is a broadcasting legend.
Finding a sports fan who doesn't know who he is would be hard, but finding one that doesn't like him might be even harder.
He attended Brown University, but you certainly can't tell with his wacky behavior when covering any sporting event.
Berman is creative, funny, and smart, what more could you ask for?
So without further ado, I give you the 20 greatest "Bermanisms" of all ...
The Cowboys’ Running Game Could be Affected by the Draft.
Posted: 29th March 2010 by Derek Major in NFL
The Cowboys three headed running attack—Smash, Dash, and Tash—could be seeing some changes on draft day.
We all know that Felix Jones isn't going anywhere. All last season Jerry Jones talked about how Felix needed to get more carries and more opportunities on the field. He showed during the end of the season, and in the playoffs, that he could carry the weight and be a starter. Now it seems that ...
Are the Atlanta Hawks Still Facing an Identity Crisis?
Posted: 29th March 2010 by Mike Foster in NBA
With the playoffs lurking, Hawks fans are going to learn a lot about the team in the next few weeks.
On Wednesday the Hawks face off in the "highlight factory" versus the Lakers, followed by a game in Cleveland on Friday.
The Birds are on an eight-game home winning streak, however their recent road losses have come against the Knicks, Raptors, Bucks, and 76ers.
It's hard to try to critique this team with ...
A Pre-Draft Glimpse into the Bills’ 2010 Offensive Depth Chart
Posted: 29th March 2010 by Chris Trapasso in NFL
The 2010 offseason for the Buffalo Bills began at a turtle-slow pace.
We didn't see the mega deals that have rocked the NFL in years past, but at the opening kickoff of free agency, many owners and GMs were ready to deal, while the Bills GM Buddy Nix was "sleeping."
Buffalo did make its moves, however, just a few weeks into the signing period.
DL Dwan Edwards will be one of ...
The New York Mets All-Time Defensive Team: Keith Hernandez, Endy Chavez, Carlos Beltran Lead the Way
Posted: 29th March 2010 by Ash Marshall in MLB
The New York Mets were blessed with one of the best defensive players to ever pick up a glove when they traded Neil Allen and Rick Ownbey to the St. Louis Cardinals back in 1983.
Seven years and six Gold Gloves later, Keith Hernandez—mustache and all—became the standard by which all other Mets in the field would be measured up against.
While the Mets may not have been inundated with players ...
I e-mailed this to a lot of Twins bloggers. If you didn't get it, there's a good chance it's due to my incredibly horrid internet connection (which made me re-send it about eight times) instead of me just forgetting about you. I sent it to nearly every e-mail address that I could find from the Twins blogs on my sidebar as well as others, so don't feel ...
Santonio Holmes of Pittsburgh Steelers Denies Assault on Woman
Posted: 29th March 2010 by Daniel Kablack in NFL
According to a report by USA Today, Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Santonio Holmes has denied assaulting a woman at a night club in Orlando after the woman filed a lawsuit against him last Wednesday.
It was previously reported that Holmes was not commenting on the case, but he now says he is innocent and the situation will be taken care of soon.
This leads some to believe that a monetary settlement might ...
There's no question that the acquisition of Pro Bowl quarterback Donovan McNabb would represent an incredible upgrade over Alex Smith, David Carr, and Nate Davis.
McNabb's a proven star. He's a household name. Arguing over his on-field value to the 49ers is a pointless exercise. The 49ers would improve greatly with McNabb at quarterback.
There is, however, the question of how much money the 49ers should realistically invest in the quarterback ...
The 2010 Major League Baseball season is almost here. That means it is time for predictions to run rampant. Without further ado, here is one prediction for the American League East.
New York Yankees
The New York Yankees have the upper hand in this division. They added speed and defense with the acquisition of CF Curtis Granderson from Detroit and a stud starting pitcher in Javier Vazquez from Atlanta. On top of ...
