Carter’s 2010 National League East Outlook and Predictions
Posted: 23rd March 2010 by David Carter in MLB
Atlanta Braves (Last Season: 86-76)
Will Bobby Cox’s last season as the Atlanta Braves manager be one worth remembering?
He’s been the one fixture in the Braves’ organization since their run in the 1990s. If the Braves don’t get to the playoffs this year, I would say that Cox’s final year with the team might be considered a failure no matter how close they get.
One thing they must have to make a ...
Carter’s NHL Power RankingsùMarch 11: Alexander Ovechkin Remains Hart Favorite
Posted: 11th March 2010 by David Carter in NHL
1. Washington Capitals (45-13-9)
I have these guys at the No. 1 spot because I like teams that can score and score often. No other team has scored more than the Capitals. At this point, Alex Ovechkin is still my favorite to win the Hart Trophy.
2. Chicago Blackhawks (44-17-5)
My money is still on the Blackhawks to win the West. Great goaltending, great offense, great coaching. But the Sharks are a close ...
Carter’s NBA Power Rankings-March 9: Cavs, Lakers, Magic Remain Top Three
Posted: 9th March 2010 by David Carter in NBA
1. Cleveland Cavaliers (50-15)
In 2008 and 2009, the first teams to reach 50 wins both won the NBA championship. The Cavaliers are the first team to grab win No. 50 this season. Just saying…
2. Los Angeles Lakers (46-18)
If I were a Lakers’ fan, I wouldn’t really worry about too much. Sure, the Lakers are in a bit of a slump but, 90 percent of fans out there should have the ...
Carter’s NBA Power Rankings, March 2: Cavs Remain Number One
Posted: 2nd March 2010 by David Carter in NBA
á
ItÆs been a couple of weeks since IÆve posted my rankings but here I am once again.
I think the Cavs should be in the top spot in my rankings because they have played well as of late, they have played great throughout the season against ôgoodö teams. They also are one of very few teams who play well offensively and defensively.
Speaking of the Cavs, LeBron James is also my ...
The Chicago Blackhawks have recorded a 9-3 record this December and grabbed 18 much needed points. The main reason I have them at the top spot is because of the FOUR shutouts they have recorded this December: Two from Antti Niemi and two from Cristobal Huet.
The Blackhawks are the top team in my rankings because I just think that they are the NHLÆs best team.á They are my current favorites ...
The List, Week Seven: Carter’s Top 25 NFL Quarterbacks
Posted: 22nd October 2009 by David Carter in NFL
ThereÆs something with Matt Schaub that I just love.á HeÆs been playing absolutely great, heÆs been highly underrated over the past few years, and heÆs doing a great job at silencing his critics.á Regardless of his teamÆs W-L record, Matt Schaub should be ranked at least in the top five in everybodyÆs rankings up to this point.
With that said, hereÆs how I see the NFLÆs top 25 quarterbacks, based on ...
Hockey Talk with Carter: The Calder Trophy Race Is Going to Be Crazy!
Posted: 22nd October 2009 by David Carter in NHL
WeÆre seeing many youngsters step it up this year on the big ice. By ôyoungsters,ö I mean rookies. WeÆre starting to see which rookies are going be shining the most this year, which ones are going to be staying in the NHL for awhile, and which ones are looking to be going back the junior leagues soon.
The Calder Trophy race this year will be very interesting and competitive. Many expect ...
It's really quite simple; this NFL season has been a great one (like they all are, usually), and we are all (well, all the football smarties out there at least) starting to figure out the great teams, the good teams, the "okay" teams, and the bad teams.
The great teams are: Minnesota Vikings, Denver Broncos, New Orleans Saints, Indianapolis Colts, the New York Giants, Atlanta Falcons, New England Patriots, and the ...
Peyton Manning is my number one quarterback for a second straight time. Why not?
I see PeytonáManning as a computer on a football field. He's there in front of everything else on the field scanning andábreakingádownáthe other side before play. He scans the defense better than every other quarterback in the league.
Manning scans and breaks down the players and runs plays,ámakes accurate passes andásees the fieldábetter than everyone else. As a ...
