BREAKING NEWS: Let’s calm down on this Peyton Manning PED “scandal”

Last night, at the onset of Thursday Night Football, Saturday Edition, the world collectively took a huge gasp together. Peyton Manning used PEDs in 2011. Without hesitation, the internet blew up, spreading this claim worldwide so every sports fan would know that Manning, Julius Peppers, Ryan Howard and Ryan Zimmerman were all cheaters.

The WN Fantasy Football Report: Championship start em and sit em

 

This is it. Most fantasy football leagues — if they are done correctly — will see the culmination of 15 weeks come to an end in hopefully exciting fashion. I can only hope that since there hasn’t been a big drop off in viewership, most of you dear readers are going for the big prize.

NFL Pro Bowl 2016 — 4 players who may have gotten snubbed

Any time there is an All Star or All Pro selection, there are going to be names left off the list. Sometimes those forgotten players are so ridiculous, that you often wonder if they were left off on purpose to cause a stir amongst the media and fans. This year, the NFL did a pretty solid job in naming their Pro Bowl teams, but that’s not to say some choice people were left off the list.

Who was snubbed from the NFL All Pro Teams?

The New York Yankees and Brett Gardner… what’s next?

The MLB Winter Meetings came to an end and two of the pieces many expected the New York Yankees to trade are still on the roster. Last year’s Mariano Rivera Award winner — that’s for the best reliever people — Andrew Miller is still in pinstripes and so is Brett Gardner.

I don’t mind that both are still in the Bronx. I understand that the asking price was high on purpose, so the fact that they weren’t traded for the sake of being trade — like Justin Wilson seemingly was — I also understand.

What I don’t understand is the outcry on social media by Yankees fans about Brett Gardner leaving. Just like I didn’t understand when the whole world wept that the Yankees were “lunatics” to let David Robertson walk. Let me explain.

The Law Dogs Top 10 sports video games of ALL TIME

Well, folks, I won’t lie to you. While editing The Law Dog’s most recent top ten, it took me back to a simpler time. A time when you had to master two buttons to play a video game. A time when you actually had to get up and go over to your friend’s house with a bunch of buddies to play the RBI Baseball tournament. A time when up, up, down, down, B, A, select, start was understood by everyone. A time 007 373 5963 (thanks Benny) brought you to Iron Mike.

I hope you have as much fun reading this one as I did.

NFL Sundays with SBJ: Eagles soar, while Saints go big game hunting

One big Sunday night game, and one… well, nearly unwatchable Monday nighter… again. Seriously: Ravens/Browns, Cowboys/Redskins, Giants/Dolphins and now Lions/Saints. Who picks these games? Anyway, SBJ has picked the winners on these games and that’s all that matters. Read his article, reimburse those Hanukkah funds, and bulk up on some extra Christmas cash.
