The All-Time Yankee Roster

fanboom fanboom posted 1/19/2008 from baseball.fanboom.com

I think if I had to put together a 25 man roster from the present and past Yankees, this is who I’d pick.

ESPN's View of the BCS....

fanboom fanboom posted 1/2/2008 from football.fanboom.com

I know ESPN has an agenda; they want the big ratings teams in the big bowls and they want to talk about the teams that bring in the TV ratings, but I still hope they would have some journalistic integrity. Neither USC nor Georgia belongs in the National Championship discussion. Here's why....

A really funny article about how men on a short leash by their wives are pulled away from the sports they love!

Team Penske Owner Points Switch: A Smart Use of a Dumb Idea | The Finish Line - FanBoom

fanboom fanboom posted 12/18/2007 from nascar.fanboom.com

As a NASCAR Nation neophyte, I am not one to generally complain about recent NASCAR innovations such as the Car of Tomorrow or the Chase. I understand how the CoT makes sense economically and safety-wise. As for the Chase, I’m not 100% bought in to the idea, but I understand the reasons why, and I agree that the old points system was flawed. To detractors, I’d borrow the old Bill Clinton line: ...

Jessica Jinx on Tony? | FanBoom Sports Blog Network

fanboom fanboom posted 12/18/2007 from football.fanboom.com

For all those watching the Cowboys face the Eagles on Sunday afternoon it was pretty difficult not to notice the beautiful Jessica Simpson watching intently from a luxury box above. Sporting a Tony Romo jersey highlighted in pink, Jessica seemed more than ready to “out” their relationship to those millions of celebrity gawkers (like my girlfriend, Betty) who have copies of US Weekly, People ...

On Deck Circle » When Did Baseball Players Become Politicians?

fanboom fanboom posted 12/18/2007 from baseball.fanboom.com

I am getting tired of the Andy Petite’s and Mark McGwire’s of the world, mincing words, not answering direct questions, and acting as if they were running for President or trying to not get impeached. You would think they would have learned from the “I did not inhale” line or the “it depends on what your definition of “is” is” spiel.

5 Biggest Surprises of the First 5 Weeks | The Free Throw Line | FanBoom Sports Blog Network

fanboom fanboom posted 12/18/2007 from basketball.fanboom.com

It is a long season, and many times those players and teams dominating the headlines on the positive side early in the year are forgotten, or are dominating the headlines on the negative side by the end of the season. Regardless, we all need something to talk about for the goings on before the all-star break.

Are The Celtics The Best Team? | The Free Throw Line | FanBoom Sports Blog Network

fanboom fanboom posted 12/18/2007 from basketball.fanboom.com

The Celtics were the talk of the off-season with the additions of Kevin Garnett and Ray Allen to go along with their own superstar Paul Pierce. With these additions, many still thought the Celtics could not contend with the Western teams. Not only that, many questioned these guys’ ability to mold into a team and would possibly not even be the best team in the weak East, as Detroit, Miami and ...

Barry Bonds; steroids; PED | On Deck Circle | FanBoom Sports Blog Network

fanboom fanboom posted 12/2/2007 from baseball.fanboom.com

Yeah I said it, and now here's why. With Barry Bonds, it's not a question of his stats. A career .298/.444./.607 line with 762 career HR's is more than enough to get a player elected into the Hall of Fame. It's a question of whether or not he deserves to be in the Hall of Fame.

Worth Repeating: A Look Back at the 2007 Nextel Cup Season | The Finish Line - FanBoom

fanboom fanboom posted 11/29/2007 from nascar.fanboom.com

No less than NASCAR sage Mark Martin once said you should enjoy every victory as though it were your last, for it just might be. In today’s competitive climate, winning a NASCAR race is tough enough, let alone 4 in a row like Jimmie Johnson did.

Top 10 NBA Players Under the Age of 25

fanboom fanboom posted 11/28/2007 from basketball.fanboom.com

The NBA, like at no other time in recent memory, is filled with some amazing young talent. A few of the older players are starting to slow, like Shaq and even Tim Duncan, and the middle-aged guys (by NBA standards) are starting to get pushed by some of these younger guys coming into their own. Here's our top ten:

Missouri has finally reached the mountain top and became the No. 1 team in the country today. This is a feat for a college squad that no one saw having a very successful season.

Raiders End AFC West Losing Streak | FanBoom Sports Blog Network

Finally the Oakland Raiders have gotten that monkey off their backs and they have won a game within their division. Oakland hadn’t beaten anybody in their division since a 25-24 squeaker over Denver on Nov. 28, 2004, the longest ongoing streak of divisional weakness in the NFL.

Bill Callahan Gets Canned | FanBoom Sports Blog Network

fanboom fanboom posted 11/25/2007 from football.fanboom.com

Nebraska has finally decided to get rid of their head coach, Bill Callahan, and the only question I have is why the wait? There was no way that this man could contribute to a turnaround at Nebraska and he would only continue to hurt this once powerful dynasty.

10 “Good” NFL teams we can now write off | FanBoom Sports Blog Network

fanboom fanboom posted 11/25/2007 from football.fanboom.com

In reality, by the looks of things we might be able to write off the entire league. The Patriots have been that good. It’s getting comical how quickly these games become unwatchable because of the Pats dominance.

Priest Holmes Retires | FanBoom Sports Blog Network

fanboom fanboom posted 11/25/2007 from football.fanboom.com

So finally it has happened, Priest Holmes has decided to hang up his shoes and finally retire- I can’t say that I am all that sad about it. I think it was about time that he left, he has been used less and less through the years and a clean break will be well for him as a person.
