Hockey From The Blind Side, Islander Recap … Confidence = Consistency

Written by John Panarese | November 30, 2011 | Comments Off | Eyes on Isles (Islanders)

My apologies to the readers first. A combination of the Thanksgiving weekend and then some internet issues and other nonsense has delayed a few posts I had in mind in writing. I know Gary is tied up quite a bit at work, so it has combined to make it difficult to write consistently. OK, so to some things up, the Isles have taken 5 points out of a possible 8 in the last four games. This includes a very modest 2 game winning streak. Also, most important in my perspective, there has been an increase in confidence among the team [...]

Milwaukee Bucks Links: Presidential Edition

Written by K L Chouinard | November 30, 2011 | Comments Off | We're Bucked (Bucks)

Ball Don’t Lie:  Sneaker companies routinely recruit NBA players to hawk their basketball shoes.  But the tacit approval of the most powerful man in the world may trump any and all other pitchmen.  Kelly Dwyer from BDL puts together the tale of Barack Obama and the customized shoes he got from Brandon Jennings and Under Armour . You have to love, love, LOVE the presidential seal on the tongue. Stunning. Ajansspor.com:  Ufuk Sarica, head coach of Anadolu Efes, on the status of Ersan Ilyasova: “Ersan does not want to go, we would like to keep him. You want to work together [...]

Andrew Hendrix: What did we learn?

Written by Daniel Battle | November 30, 2011 | Comments Off | Slap the Sign (Notre Dame)

Andrew Hendrix could be the future quarterback at South Bend, Ind. Image from irish.nbcsports.com After a rough game against Stanford, the Irish may have learned something that will help them down the road. They learned that Andrew Hendrix has a future at Notre Dame. Not just because he’s a quarterback Brian Kelly actually recruited, but he has some talent and leadership qualities that make him stand out. Andrew was put in after halftime (permanently) to give the Irish a spark.Even though he plyed wel, in my opinion, he is not the immediate answer. I still have faith in Tommy Rees [...]

Dolphins’ Play For Future Now

Written by Brian Miller | November 30, 2011 | Comments Off | Phin Phanatic (Dolphins)

Forget about the Miami Dolphins making the playoffs, Karlos Dansby said the goal is to now finish at .500.  Well, what else is he going to say?  The reality of the season came to a crashing halt, even in a locker room where no one will admit it, when the team lost to Dallas on Thanksgiving day..  The season is over and all that’s left is the show. With Tony Sparano all but assured of being released following this season, something he alluded to in an interview while discussing the poor performance of Jake Long, he basically said “We or [...]

Written by Kyle Kensing | November 30, 2011 | Comments Off | Saturday Blitz (College Football)

Yo ho, yo ho a Pirate’s Life for Washington State (credit Bruce Feldman, a reporter whose work with the new WSU head coach earned him a red card of ESPN). It was inevitable Mike Leach would land somewhere. After all, his name was mentioned in conjunction with virtually every coaching vacancy since a certain television analyst used Leach as the starting point of his political career. But Pullman? With rumors of seemingly more attractive destinations swirling, including fellow Pac-12 locales Westwood and Tempe, the Palouse seems an unlikely docking point for the Captain’s ship. Don’t be shocked. While Wazzu has [...]
