Sports Bio

The most memorable game ever was the great bottle gate scandal at Cleveland Browns Stadium, my best friend Donnie and I were in the second level of the dawg pound for that one. Now I can add watching the human snow delay, Mike Hardgrove, in person at the 2007 Indians home opener. He only did his job, but between him and the ump they screwed the tribe, the fans, and Paul Byrd. BTW it was 15 degrees with the wind chill! Must be something about Cleveland sports, we seem to get the short end of the stick. We finally didn't get the short end of it though in game 2 of the 2007 ALDS vs. the Yankees. Fausto Carmona pitched a 9 inning gem, and Hafner hit a 2 out RBI in the 11th for a 2 - 1 win. The midges were all over the place for a couple of innings but the Tribe didn't show any effects from them like the Yanks did.

Favorite teams are the Browns, Indians, St.L. Cards., Raiders, but most of all we can not tolerate a loss in the last regular season NCAA DIV 1 Football Game to "That team from up north" as Woody would call them. Go Bucs!

My best friend Donnie and I attended the Indians 2006 home opener this year. It was awesome, Casey Blake hit a grand slam, Travis Hafner hit two other home runs. Definately one to remember. Tack on the 2008 opener also. I am not sure what year we started going to the opener together, I believe it was 1998, or 1999. but I have only missed one so far, and that was due to injury.

I have also seen many Bucs games at "the shoe" thanks to Mike Mackan, our Medical director for the paramedic program I help teach at. The only big ten team I haven't seen live is Michigan. There is nothing like a football game at "the shoe" It gets so loud, and energetic you can feel it come right up through the floor, through your feet, and into you.

The dumbest football fines ever!: Some of these are pretty funny. While others make you wonder, just how much time does the league actually have on it's hands?

The answer to the only obvious question is.: The man has two ex-wives, eleven children (thats right 11), and the IRS to take care of. However, those could be the least of his concerns.

NFL's Dirtiest Player: Hines Ward

people just think I'm biased.

Amen tahoe, every Steeler fan should be forced to read, then re-read this. I am so tired of hearing how great Ward is. Plus when loud mouth Joey Porter was there, they thought he was a god. The big problem is 99.9% of them wouldn't even care.

Florida Linebacker Tried to Eye-Gouge Opponent

This just shows how much of an ass clown Urban Meyer is. He's always whining about something. Attempting to take the sight of another person is inexcusable, and should be punished more severely. I hope the NCAA does something about it. I doubt the SEC is going to punish one of its own, especially while they're first in the polls.

but what i found out was that on the previous play Ealey spit in his face, and all Spikes did was wipe off the spit and was trying to smear it on Ealey's face.

The statement you made is ridiculous! If he was just trying to wipe the spit back in his face and not poke his eye, his hand would not have been angled right up at his eyes. Watch it again, Spikes is in there so far his glove is falling off.

Yankees Take 2-1 Series Lead Behind A-Rod, Pettitte

I'm a bit surprised the Phillies are going with Blanton instead of Lee (even though I don't know how effective Lee has been on short rest in his career).

Dyams, I don't think I've ever seen Lee pitch on that short of a rest before. PLus his IP* this year is very high. Even despite those two things, I think you have to put him up against CC, especially down 2-1. Charlie Manuel didn't do it though, noiw they are going to have one hell of a go at it having to win 2 at New York.

*I think they said he is at 265 last night.

Manu Ginobili Makes Bat-sketball History

PETA my ass, put any of them in a room with one of those flying rats and they'll be calling for pest control themselves. Prior to blowing my back out, we would get these calls at the FD. We would corner the bat on the wall. One of us would stand under it with a pillow case, while the other sprayed it with a co2 extinguisher. They fall right in the pillow case, you take it outside and let it go. Those nasty things still make me itch when I think about it.

It was still a nice swing by ginobili.

Yankees, Phillies Meet Again in World Series

This looks like an Indians fan's dream, with out the against each other. Here's the new news, if Manny Acta wins manager of the year they're going to trade him to the top team for four minor league prospects also.

Looks like old LJ could use a Prozac lick next to his locker and computer. This guy is an ass.

SportsFilter: The Friday Huddle

I wonder if they'll hit Hanson with a filing a false police report charge? Looks as if they should, sounds like they put some time into investigating the situation. If he lied, and caused the use of all those resources that could have been investigating real crimes to be tied up on his lie, then charge him.

Phillies Move on to World Series

It does look like just a matter of time until the Angels are eliminated. If that does happen (and I am still rooting for them) I will be forced to root for the Phillies. Just to show the Inaians front office one thing......it was them!

Yankees yank Ronan Tynan from lineup after anti-Semitic remark

I would have to agree with etaloh, he is way beyond playing devils advocate. Cabuki, I don't mind the National Anthem being sung at games, doesn't it happen in most places? I do agree with you on the "God Blesss America" though, It's a game, not a rally. As always yerfatma rules!

All right, which Bills fan on here did it? A move not even a Lions fan has resorted to, surprisingly!

I want to do one for the browns, but they want triple to put that helmet on anything.
