So I know many of the Spo fi's are world travelers. As a Pens fan, I have a problem. My honeymoon in Aruba is scheduled for the end of June. Will they broadcast the Cup finals in Aruba or do i need to get my wife to reschedule?

Boston Bruins announcer Jack Edwards equates Matt Cooke with Sirhan Sirhan

Yes. Watch the video and draw your own conclusions.

I [posted the video, so I guess we will have to agree to disagree.

Also I would like to thank the Sens for spending the night in the sin bin. Cooke drew several penalties baiting them all night. Well played.

You really think the Karlssson injury was done with intent?? Really. I get the Savard hit was dirty. That was 3 years ago. Should He be up for this award? No. Should be be compared to a Killer? No

Bills Receiver Asks North Korea to Bomb New England

So i guess there is no more room for a smartass in our country. LightPeople need to lighten up. This is the problem with the media age. People cant joke anymore. Someone will be offended, post it, it will go viral, and Steve Johnson will have to apologize for being insensitive to the Korean people.

So was the RMU/Kentucky game on ESPN in other parts of the country or just near Pittsburgh and Kentucky. Have to say, What an amazing night. I grew up in Moon, Calipari spoke at my graduation(held in the same areana the game was played last night), and I was sitting at a bar across the street from campus watching the game last night. Have to say, Moon was a party place last night. Way to go Bobby Mo!!! I know that is the worst KY team in decades, but still an awesome win.

I was unaware of the split there. I know the rangers have been riding Lundquist hard the first few weeks. Guess we will have to see how it all shakes out. The teams with the most depth that can rest some guys now and then should be freshest come playoff time will be at an advantage.

The Blackhawks run so far is amazing. Hope they burn themselves out. Alot of teams are riding their starting goalies hard and in this short season, i think you need to rest those guys earlier so they are sharp come playoff time.

In the past Cooke's play has bordered on dirty, but since the long suspension2 seasons ago, he has played a much better/cleaner game.

For the most part, hockey fans are pretty diehard. Most fans are just happier to have it back then bitter it was gone. I think so many people were worried they would cancel another season that the relief of not outweighs the fact the rich fighting caused us to miss 32 games, or 960 games if you want to be technical.

So as I sit here preparing my team for the championship of fantasy football in my league, I was brought to a saying my wife wants on a tee-shirt. "The football is fantasy. The RAGE is real!!"

I have a friend who will never play fantasy because of the situation I am currently in. I bleed Steelers black and gold. My QB's are Big Ben, and Andy Dalton. The Steelers need a win to make the playoffs, Dalton is projected higher in fantasy. Can I start teh enemy in such an important game and hope the Steelers win 40-39. To quote A Bronx Tale" The other night he threw away his baseball cards because he said Mickey Mantle wouldn't pay our rent. Big Ben wont either, but Andy Dalton may.

ERRRRRR!!!

Jets Bench Sanchez, But Still No Tebow

There is no way they can play Tebow now. If he comes in and lights it up even though he is awful, the staff looks worst than they already do and people want to keep Tebow. The Jets mishandled this to the nth degree. Not much they can do to cover themselves.

NFL Might Eliminate Kickoffs

Sounds like a way to make games more interesting and offer more offense. Nothing is being made safer. It is allowing the gamblers more opportunities with points spreads. Please tell me someone else here is a "South Park" fan and saw the episode where they played sarcastic ball.

So my question is this. If Sanders had stayed down and not popped right up after the Ed Reed hit, would the suspension have been lifted. Think the NFL opened a can of worms on this one.

Not a chance. The best college team has 15-20 NFL caliber players. The worst NFL team has 53 NFL caliber players(for the most part). It is a good point to discuss and fun to think about but the Chiefs would beat Bama by 21.

I have to say NOT racist. If he had just dressed up like any random black guy and had toy guns and was acting like a thug or like he was robbing people, RACIST. If I dress up like a famous person who happens to be black, Not racist. My friends and I run in a marathon relay every year and as a 5 man team always make a funny t-shirt and put or faces on other peoples bodies. One year, we used the Jackson 5. That wasnt racist. It was funny. People are so sensitive to , the fear of being racist that they can no longer have a sense of humor.

How many times does the NFL have to fail in Europe before we realize they care as much about our football as we care about theirs. Nfl Europe, World League, they all failed. I think they would have a beeter chance in Germany than London.

They don't run the ball either. Williams had two carries on Sunday and Stewart only had ten. It's absurd.

It isnt even the overall record that makes me made, it is the gutless fall from 16 games over. The bucs led the leage in homeruns in June, that will cover the awful play for a little.

The fans had begun to disappear, but then they had a hot month and were well over .500, everyone bagan to think, "this is the year" and headed back to the ballpark only to watch them lose 21 of 28 last month.
