I was just thinking that the St. Louis Cardinals haven't missed Albert Pujols at all. They gone tothe World Series and two NLCS since God told him to take the money and be an Angel. So, I thinkthe Yankees can manage to succeed without Robinson Cano.I was just thinking the Seattle Mariners how much they're going to regret giving a 30-year oldsecond-baseman a 10-year contract for $240 million. Name a player not on steroids who gets better from years 35-40?I was just thinking how ridiculous the Dallas Cowboys look for firing defensive coordinator...

The state attorney investigating sexual charges against Jameis Winston will release his findingsat 2pm on Thursday which could be monumental for the Heisman Trophy front-runner, FloridaState, and college football. If the Florida State quarterback is charged, his season, Heisman chances, and career could be over. If not, he will win college football's most prestigious award and lead the Seminoles into the national championship game.What is amazing...

On Monday night at a library in Stamford, CT., Brian Cashman took part in a series called, 'Civility in baseball.' Cashman talked about winning 'the right way' during his time at the podium. I thought of this when news broke on Tuesday that the general manager of the New York Yankees signed Jacoby Ellsbury to a mammoth, 7-year, $153 million contract. In less than24 hours, Cashman went from 'civility' to insanity. It wasn't so much that Cashman...

I missed out on Black Friday because I didn't want to deal with the crowds and taser-wieldingfreaks who wanted to beat the competition to save $50 bucks on the game of Twister. But Idid get up early for Cyber Monday. Man, did I get some great deals! Here are a few thingsthat I purchased with my best friends credit card.STUN GUN. If I do camp out all night for Black Friday next year, I'm going to be preparedto deal with all those crazy people in a...

You can gauge the pulse of the sports nation by checking out the news feed of Facebook during the weekend. Once you navigate through the pictures of food and the bare feet by the ocean, there is usually a plethora of comments posted by sports "experts" across the nation.It doesn't take a rocket-scientist to figure out the type of fans out there. There are the oneswho think their teams and players should win every game, championship, and post-seasonaward....

Cheating has long been part of society, but it really seems to have gushed into the sports worldlike a tsunami over the last decade. Armstrong, A-Rod, Braun, and 'Spygate'. Need I go on?Heck, the friggin' Chines badminton team was tanking games in the Olympics in hopes of getting a better seed in the tournament. Good, grief.Now, there is more cheating, along with shamefully bad sportsmanship. Playing by the rulesand sportsmanship used...

There are some things that just scream dumb. Giving Anthony Weiner a cell phone is one of them. Introducing Tiger Woods to a stripper is another. But few things are dumber than thepromotion that is Black Friday.That's right. National retail chains open their stores to bargain-obsessed customers who campout overnight to be the first people to lead the stampede when the green flag goes down just tosave 50 bucks on an item. How stupid.Sleep-deprived,...

I am thankful for my health. The groin pulls and calf strains may occur more frequently nowand the grooves around my eyes are deeper, but I'm thankful that I'm still upright and strongenough to run marathons, swim across lakes, and bike to Montauk.I am thankful that I have a job that I love and work with people who share the same passion, commitment and interests that I do. Love what you do, do what you love, and not have to worry...

No parent should ever have to experience what happened in a small town in the southwest part of Connecticut last December. No community should have to be forever linked to one of the worst events imaginable. No resident should ever have to hear the words, "Oh, I'm sosorry," after identifying where they are from to outsiders.The massacre of 20 innocent children and six adults in Sandy Hook Elementary School isalways going to be a part...

Bud Selig and Major League Baseball have put on the good face when saying they're tryingto rid the cheaters (PED's) from the game. It's a joke. They don't really care. They are not barring, blackballing, or preventing cheaters from the game they've been entrusted to protect.Instead, Major League Baseball is rewarding them.Jhonny Peralta, who was banned for 50-games for his role in the Biogenesis scandal, is reportedlyon the verge of signing...

I almost drove off the road while listening to the Alex Rodriquez interview with Mike Francesa on WFAN Tuesday. It was so absurd, it was ridiculously funny. I haven't laughedthat hard since watching Chris Farley and Patrick Swayze dancing half-naked as Chippendaleson an episode of "SNL".Earlier in the day, A-Rod had stormed out of his own grievance hearing after learning MLBcommissioner Bud Selig would not be coming into testify. He said he was tired...
