TE Mark Andrews gets a TD after all and leads all TEs in touchdowns. The nearly all black Jets defense ( sans a white DT) looks really engaged don't they?

Good observation PhillisFan. Under normal situations I am not sold on Jackson either. But he has a fleet of white tight ends that are top notch and act as a great buffer.

Iowa is a team to root for sure. Iowa State has a freshman bench player guard Caleb Grill who is a bit like Mac McClung with his leaping ability. Just entered the game.

Just fired BC HC Steve Addazio has been hired as the head coach for Colorado State. He is replacing caste hole Steve Bobo who ruined the team. Addazio had a mixed record at Boston College but he has to be considered an upgrade over Bobo. I don't think Addazio is a down the line caste coach and...

Happy to report the Yankees signed OF Brett Gardner to a one year deal with an option for a second year. This is great. I get all the Yankee games where I live and keeping Brett keeps the Yankees from going nearly full hog caste. One of my favorite MLB players for years now Brett will be the...

There is a new reality in the NFL when it comes to injuries. We all know about the dreaded ACL tear. And while not as ominous lingering hamstring injuries like the one Adam Thielen is dealing with this season can be very frustrating on their own. But the difference between now and over a decade...

Oddly there is a good books to read thread but not one for sports books that I can tell. There might be a thread from way back but I didn't want to go hunting for it. Anyway I just finished the superb new book "Shula" by Mark Ribowsky. An easy and enjoyable read it is also a great history book...

There have been two huge signings so far. The Yankees nabbed starting ace Gerrit Cole for a humungous long term contract. I still wonder if they are going to resign OF Brett Gardner and most rumors suggest they will. I sure hope so. he was a key player for them last season. The addition of Cole...

The list above is pretty comprehensive. I think Finke has a long shot chance and Shohfi and perhaps Klubnik from Yale might find a seam (no pun intended) but most likely no one will get drafted. Along with some small school players listed above there is the Idaho State duo of Michael Dean...

Two crucial points. Eagles have to realize their season is on the line here. More importantly though if they come back and win they will stick it up the asses of their butthole booing fan base.

Monitoring your posts? I wouldn't rule it out. CF football analysis in total is as accurate or more so than main stream outlets. Too bad GMs don't seem to take our advice.

Unfortunately DWF Upside paints an accurate portrait. If you scan the entire college football field a snap shot of white wide receivers in 2019 is the worst and sparsest I can ever recall. Unlike in previous years where there is a draft year drop off of sorts there were at least young...

Eagles S and CB watch Giants WR Slayton split them like pea soup. Booger says they have talent though. I am so sick of watching black defensive backs destroy the game of football.

With LB Nate Gerry now entrenched and making plays and the best TE duo in football plus all that rancid booing of Wentz you can't help but root for the Eagles here. And Booger just misdiagnosed their problems. As detailed here at length the Eagles WR core is slow and clumsy and now they are...

All I know is Dale Murphy didn't get his "kiddie trophy" and Ted Simmons did.

Well I'll be damned. The results are in and they inverted my picks practically to a tee. In other words the two players I picked, Mattingly and Murphy received the fewest votes. Also the other two picks I couldn't make up my mind on were also sitting at the bottom of the barrel vote wise (John...

Actually the talented and athletic Barton was chosen in the third round and they also drafted LB Ben-Burr Kirven too. Up until now they have been coverage fetches. So true and sadly the two playing for NY teams suffered year ending injuries.

The Patriots got jobbed see above. But I won't succumb to panic just yet and the positive from this game is Edelman going over 1,000 yards. Ryan Clark of ESPN dished Edelman and took a stab at Adam Schefter who mentioned Edelman having HOF credentials a year or so ago. If Edelman doesn't get...

Sharp analysis as always. The Bosa/ Tranquill combo gives me hope that all is not lost.

No need to sweat Burrow winning the Heisman. That is a done deal. As for more guys to root for with Clemson that is an understatement. Not even close. Clemson by a country mile.

Arrogant bastard that I am that is a layup question. I got in on first guess. Jeff Kent. Is he HOF material? That is another question altogether.

I guess all of the bowl match ups will be announced tonight. From what I can gather the committee appears to be leaning towards LSU being number one. I would have preferred Ohio State only because I want to see a Ohio State-Clemson final but if LSU is number one then the Buckeyes will play the...

I had no idea and this is the first I have heard of the two-way contract. I guess I need to dial down the giddy meter then. Sort of a purgatorial state. At the end of the day for a player like Kyle Guy it is still preferable for them to be hanging around at the NBA level as opposed to playing at...

Good points Leonardfan. It will be a different kind of Saturday but at least I won't give myself a headache trying to watch three to four games at once although I prefer that somehow. I also can't imagine anything topping Yale- Harvard in excitement. That was the game of the year. But enjoy the...

I don't think they should "adjust" things due to his position. As for being the premier 2B of the 1980's you are forgetting the Cubs Ryne Sandberg who in my mind was superior to Lou. 2B is a bit like left field, not the most important position on the field. Certainly SS and likely 3B pay a...
