Hall of Fame worthy often depends on two non baseball factors. One-where did you play, two-who likes you. Teixeira hits it out of the park in the "where you play" category, playing in NY and having decent stats almost guarantees you a spot in Cooperstown. He also is fairly well liked...

US Boxing is dead Anyone that sat through the snoozefest that was the “fight of the centuryâ€￾ has to ask themselves: “this is the best they got?â€￾ Floyd Mayweather and Manny Pacquiao put a good chunk of people to sleep with their incredibly lazy match that Mayweather won by (I...

Yes the NFL draft sucks as the picks reinforce the "black as superior athlete" meme over and over. White players with better measurables or better college production are passed over for 'projects' and unknowns. But while fans may think that the draft is a way of restocking teams with the best...

Man the Wings blew some open scoring chances that really cost them. It was a 1-0 game into the final minute (empty net goal). Bishop played poorly at times in the series and was really hot and cold, I don't see him carrying the team any farther. Stamkos was invisible and led the series in...

Um, police not at fault? Surprise, surprise. EXCLUSIVE: The Fourth Estate has been told that Freddie Gray’s life-ending injuries to his spine may have possibly been the result of spinal and neck surgery that he allegedly received a week before he was arrested, not from rough excessively...

Havent I told you numerous times not to compare black people to apes? The great apes are intelligent thoughtful creatures that live in harmony with their environment. I will not stand for slurs directed at undeserved groups. Please stop it.

Actually that's an improvement for black rioters, in the 1968 riots in Detroit the blacks were shooting at fireman trying to put out fires. That's when they brought in the National Guard, to stop them from shooting the guys trying to keep the city from burning down.

Red Wings playing an odd series with the Tampa Bay Lightening. Tampa was the leagues best home team and worst road team. Yet the Wings have won 2 in Tampa and Tampa has won 2 in Detroit. Game 7 in Tampa. Should be a good one. As a sidelight Steve Yzerman is the Tampa GM and of course is still...

My local newspaper closed comments on their story of the "Peaceful protest in Baltimore". Other news outlets were closed to comments too. The natives are getting out of hand, I think the National Guard is going to have to come in and start shooting white people to return some semblance of peace...

Another workman like effort from Wlad. He's not a particularly exciting fighter. He stays at a distance, rips jab after jab, moves well because he's in great shape and grabs his smaller opponents whenever they try to get inside. He's unbeatable at this point unless he ages out of the great shape...

In keeping with the sites keen interest in the WNBA, one of the leagues "stars" was arrested for fighting with her live-in girlfriend. This is just another footnote in the death of a great civilization. One wonders on how many levels this type of news item defies comprehension. Here are two...

My son just went out and bought an old beater pick-up. I wasn't too happy about it but he wanted a pick up because that's what kids like him drive. He never was much for working on cars and such so as much as I tried to show him stuff he wasn't interested. Well surprise, surprise, nothing needs...

Regarding the NHL playoffs when I was a kid over 80 percent of the teams made the playoffs (4 out of 6). But hockey is a different game. The NHL always considered itself a two season sport. In the regular season if you like the game then of course you are going to watch, no matter what the...

It almost makes you wonder if the people who run the NFL are trolling guys like us. This is another chance to mock and demean him. Another chance to take shots at his religion. More chances to bait him into saying something un-PC so that they can level some thought police punishment on him. Just...

Did Tebow preach that much? I don't remember it. Sure the media brought it up 24-7 because they are waging a war on Christianity but I don't remember Tebow doing much publicly besides his TD celebration and the post game thanks to God--something, as others have pointed out, is done on a regular...

I'm a libertarian on the issue of prostitution. Two adults are free to exchange cash for whatever mutual personal exchange they wish. But really, sleeping with a woman that sleeps with other guys all of the time? And let's not whitewash it. They aren't "sleeping" they are taking other men's...

Chip Kelley is trolling the NFL hard. Racist Riley, born again Tim, what next Ritchie Incognito?!?! I just hope there's no backlash coming. Kelley is going to have to win and trading away a franchise type QB doesn't help. I wish them the best but expect some blowback.

Is there that much in that section most Christians would object to? It can be read a lot of different ways, and I think that's the idea. That catechism was written, I believe by Pope John Paul II. He's post Vatican II so he's a lefty but of course no where as near as much as the current crop. I...

This is rich coming from Holmes. Those of us around in his heyday remember how he was dogged constantly that his competition was weak and he was an undeserving champ. He never got much respect by the same crowd that worshiped the ground Ali walked on. I chalked the media bias up to his bland...

The Catholic Church has never taught such a doctrine about works and, in fact, has constantly condemned the notion that men can earn or merit salvation. Catholic salvation theology is rooted in apostolic Tradition and Scripture and says that it is only by God's grace--completely unmerited by...

Taken out of context much? That paragraph is describing "those people that have not received the Gospel (but) are related to the People of God in various ways". That hardly means they are equal. It is infinity harder to get into the Catholic heaven then it is for many Protestant sects that...

I agree. The way things work today is any publicity is good publicity. If someone is talked about and a large group is negative then usually another group forms in support, as long as the person being discussed has not blasphemed in the modern sense, ie spoken poorly of blacks or gays, or...

A lot of ink and blather about a rather innocuous law that is already a law in many other states (and the Federal government) and provided virtually no protection for religious rights. So it's a typical Republican type of law, one that is passed to appease their supporters and is neither...
