Pacers: Indy Cornrows, Eight Points, Nine Seconds, Pacers Pulse, Pacers Place
Raptors: Raptors Republic, Jurassic Hoops, Raptor Blog, Raptors HQ

Mardy Gilyard and Dexter McCluster

Written by trippc | January 31, 2010 | Comments Off | The Ebony Bird (Ravens)

When Ozzie Newsome drafted Mark Clayton with the 22nd pick of the 2005 NFL Draft, he was supposed to be our home run hitter. After five seasons, it’s safe to say that he didn’t really pan out.

With the 25th pick of the 2010 draft, many expect Newsome to go after a receiver again; but honestly, [...]

Written by KWillis | January 31, 2010 | Comments Off | Soaring Down South (Hawks)

As much as the Celtics looked like the team that was scratching just to stay in the game on Friday night the Hawks were every bit as much that team Saturday against the Magic. Ultimately the Hawks succumbed to the pressure and fell in the second half to the Magic losing 104-86. The Magic have [...]

Arizona Cardinals Coach Ken Whisenhunt Not Committed To Matt Leinart

Written by Josh Sanchez | January 31, 2010 | Comments Off | NFL Mocks, Other Blogs

When Kurt Warner retired this past Friday, a lot of questions began to surround the Arizona Cardinals franchise. Warner’s departure left the team with a glaring hole at quarterback and now Matt Leinart will be under center — a quarterback that the coaching staff and fans do not have full faith in.

Written by Tim Grimes | January 31, 2010 | Comments Off | Blog Red Machine (Reds)

Walt Jocketty confirmed on Saturday that he has indeed offered Jonny Gomes a minor league contract. We are currently competing with the Chicago Cubs for his services.
His power in the middle of this lineup makes a lot of sense. The only problem is we have 5 other LF candidates already. His power [...]

Written by Patrick Allen | January 31, 2010 | Comments Off | Arrowhead Addict (Chiefs)

Who? Yeah, I didn’t recognize his name at first either. Richardson was just one of the many bottom of the roster CB’s the Chiefs had floating around last year. Anyway, the story comes from Tampabay.com and off a tip from Arrowhead Pride.
Apparently, there is some sort of Pirate parade down there in Tampa called the [...]

Rip & Tay Don’t Fit

Written by toasterhands | January 31, 2010 | Comments Off | Life on Dumars (Pistons)

Written by Steve Kays (@KaysOnTheNBA)
The Pistons’ two mainstays from the 2004 title team just don’t fit in with this team anymore. The future is Rodney Stuckey, Will Bynum, Ben Gordon, Jonas Jerebko, Austin Daye, and Charlie Villuneuva. That’s it. Everyone else (at the moment) is expendable. Is it any surprise that when Rip and Tay [...]
