Written by Adam Best | February 28, 2010 | Comments Off | Arrowhead Addict (Chiefs)

Yes, he is 31. Yes, he has been running behind a fantastic offensive line. But Thomas Jones — who will be released by the Jets very soon — is a special breed of workhorse. Just look at his stats over the past five seasons (year, team, games played, carries, yards, YPC):

2005 CHI 15 314 1335 4.3
2006 CHI 16 296 [...]

Torrealba and Hundley

Written by Nathaniel Stoltz | February 28, 2010 | Comments Off | Chicken Friars (Padres)

One of the more difficult position battles this spring among the Padres’ position players is the battle for starting catcher, between Nick Hundley and Yorvit Torrealba.

I thought I’d take a deeper look into the two today, and perhaps re-evaluate that [...]

Mother of all Revenge Games: Manatees vs. Pirates

Written by Shaftie | February 28, 2010 | Comments Off | Rum Bunter (Pirates)

 
The Pittsburgh Pirates attempt to revenge the ultimate humilation.  Last year, the Bucs fell to the hated Manatte Community College Lancers, 6- 4 in their annual scrimmage.  Yeh, that wasn’t a nightmare.  We firmly believe that  Bradenton which is known as ’The Friendly City/Little Bit of Paradise,’ will turn into a ‘Vengeful/Hell’  for these  college pranksters. 
Why isn’t there a pay-for-view?
2010 PIRATES [...]

Jclombardi previews Packers 2010 draft.
Returning from a long tour trip on the road, I am back with 2010 Draft Day preview to help fans get beyond the nauseating carp reported about the combine. The “I got press pass to the combine and join me” wannabes bloggers, “nickel and dime” GM TT, and “classy” Packers press are laughable examples, but it’s time to get quality views about the potential scenarios for draft day.
The Packers have predictable draft needs in several positions listing the top six picks available:
