Judd Zulgad and Kevin Seifert are both reporting (Seifert via Facebook) that Antoine Winfield was a no-show for today’s mandatory minicamp session. There is no official word on why Antoine is not there, but we all know Antoine was trying to negotiate a contract extension this off-season and those talks broke down. For what it’s [...]

Game Status
Written by joeb | May 29, 2009 | Comments Off | Birds Watcher (Orioles)
So in Matt Wieters’ debut, this game could be rained out. Right now, I’m about 20 minutes outside of the city, and the rain is steady. There have been no updates thus far on the team site or on MLB.com. Roch Kubatko usually has weather updates, as he’s at the yard incredibly early. So far, [...]
Steeeeewwww!!!

NFL.com’s Steve Wyche posted a list of the NFC East’s unheralded linebackers. Stewart Bradley was among the group.
“[London] Fletcher and the New York Giants’ Antonio Pierce might be the more highly regarded 4-3 middle linebackers in the NFC East, but Bradley could be poised to make a move to leapfrog one, if not both.
I think [...]
Jessica Simpson and Marine Biology Still Don?t Like Each Other
Written by Pacman Jonesin' | Running from the Name...and its Ghosts | May 29, 2009 | Comments Off | Pacman Jonesin'
Jessica Simpson once famously thought Chicken of the Sea tuna was actually chicken. Evidently, that little episode did not inspire Jessica to become more familiar with the creatures of the seas, because she still tends to get them confused. For instance, Jessica does not seem aware that killer whales are …

Are the Oakland Raiders the New York Knicks of the NFL?
Written by Chris Shellcroft | May 29, 2009 | Comments Off | Just Blog Baby (Raiders)
This is a question I never wanted to ponder, but the similarities are just all too familiar. Mind you, I’m a life long Raider fan so it pains me to even consider that our proud franchise has slid into a six year rut equivalent to the evolving train wreck that is the New York Knicks.
However, [...]
Adrian Peterson Leads Running Back Rankings for Madden 10
Written by Dan Zinski | May 29, 2009 | Comments Off | The Viking Age (Vikings)
The fine folks at EA Sports have released the official player rankings for the newest installment of the highly popular Madden NFL football series, Madden 10 (evidently not Madden ‘10, as I would’ve expected). As we all might have anticipated, the Vikings‘ own Adrian Peterson is ranked #1 among running backs with an overall 97. [...]

Marcellus Wiley Has Words for Fran Tarkenton
Written by Dan Zinski | May 29, 2009 | Comments Off | The Viking Age (Vikings)
You thought Marcellus Wiley was going to let Fran Tarkenton’s hatchet job on him go by without a response? Think again.
First, what Fran said about Marcellus, in response to Marcellus calling him “a grumpy old man”:
Marcellus Wiley, who is trying to parlay a minimal football career into still making more money. This grumpy old man [...]

As expected, Carlos Zambrano has been hit with a suspension and a fine for bumping the umpire during his outburst the other day against the Pirates. The suspension is six games and the fine is $3,000. Zambrano says he won’t appeal, which is good, cause he doesn’t have a case. This is Z’s second stint [...]
Brewers Need Offense To Wake Up!
Written by kenwatkins | May 29, 2009 | Comments Off | Reviewing the Brew (Brewers)
The Milwaukee Brewers and their fans should actually be really happy right now where their team stands. The Brewers lost CC Sabathia, Ben Sheets in the off-season and Rickie Weeks this season and others with minor injuries, but still are contending. Bill Hall and Corey Hart are struggling to hit the ball and you also [...]
Dallas Cowboys Will Release 11-year Veteran Greg Ellis
Written by thelandryhat | May 29, 2009 | Comments Off | The Landry Hat (Cowboys)
Greg Ellis‘ 11 years in Dallas are over. He had a topsy-turvy career in Dallas, but he was at times a force to be reckoned with.
Ellis, who is eighth on the Cowboys all-time sack list with 77, did not attend practice with the team this week. He spoke with owner Jerry Jones and then shortly [...]
Happy Birthday Melo!

It’s Carmelo Anthony’s Birthday today. Hopefully he’ll be celebrating more than his 25th birthday tonight. He’s never won an NBA game on his birthday, mostly due to the fact that he’s never played this late into a season. Game starts at 7pm MDT.
