Join the forum discussion on this post Couple of great races yesterday in the Gatorade Duel 150s. I’m not a NASCAR fan that needs to see a bunch of wrecks to enjoy the races, and yesterdays were some of the best Duel 150s I’ve seen in quite a while. 50th Daytona 500 Lineup Props to Michael Waltrip and his team. I was pulling for Dale Jarrett to make the field for the ...

Dennis Dixon Interview, New Era Scouting

frankfso posted 4/22/2008 from fantasysportsoutlook.com

Dave Gardner over at New Era Scouting has very good interview with former Oregon quarterback Dennis Dixon and how he’s staying positive. Good read. I’ve started looking at mock drafts and trying to get a feel for where he might get drafted, but it’s pretty hard to tell. In New Era Scoutings draft guide, they have Dixon going to Jacksonville in the 5th round with pick no. 159.

Fans View: Toronto Blue Jays report

frankfso posted 3/7/2008 from fantasysportsoutlook.com

The Jays are a usually strong team with strong finishes yet always seem to be denied a pass to October due to key injuries (note: Blue Jays sent 13 guys to the DL last year with 4 players out for the year (2 were in Sept.) and a tough AL East. Toronto finished their 07 season with a record of 83-79 which is around the usual record they finish with. However, the Jays finished 13 games out. 13 GAMES

San Francisco Giants, Game 23

frankfso posted 4/25/2008 from fantasysportsoutlook.com

There’s nothing better than a good old fashion pitchers duel. That’s just what Giants pitcher Tim Lincecum and Padres pitcher Chris Young served up Thursday night in a 1-0 San Francisco win. At 10-13 heading into the last weekend of April the Giants have to be feeling pretty good.

Dennis Dixon to the Pittsburgh Steelers

frankfso posted 4/27/2008 from fantasysportsoutlook.com

Former Oregon QB Dennis Dixon was selected by the Pittsburgh Steelers in the 5th round. Not the best spot for Dixon if he wants to play QB. Barring an injury to Big Ben, Dixon won’t have many opportunities to get under center. This may not go over well with Oregon fans, but I can see the Steelers maybe seeing how he’d do as a punt or kickoff return man in the early going.

Cincinnati Bengals, when will they learn?

frankfso posted 4/27/2008 from fantasysportsoutlook.com

So the Cincinnati Bengals are trying to improve their football team…and image. I’m all for giving the benefit of the doubt to people and most do deserve a second chance, but why in the world would the Bengals go and draft someone that makes the HC say, “It’s a little bit of a risk, yes,” coach Marvin Lewis said....

Footballlguys.com Joe Bryant and David Dodds rock!

frankfso posted 5/25/2008 from fantasysportsoutlook.com

Footballguys.com is easily one of the best fantasy football site around. I’ve been going to footballguys since 2001 and the content is really unmatched anywhere else on the net. While they have many great features one of my favorites is the newsletter they send out. Every year Joe Bryant sends out his “non football” newsletter on three occasions, Memorial Day, Independence Day, and Veterans Day.

All over Raider Nation the masses are trying to get inside Al Davis’ head and figure out who we’re going to take with the No. 4 pick in this year’s draft. And we’re not the only team. This is the time of year where unless you do an infomercial along the lines of Miss Cleo, the smoke screens that get laid down by the Owner’s, GMs and HCs won’t get you any closer to who the pick’s might be.

There is something special about a team that can get excited when good things happen and not get down when things aren’t going so well. I’ve said it before, if nothing else this Giants team will give us some kind of an unforgettable season. This is from Henry Shulman, San Francisco Chronicle.

Brett Favre, Underclassmen Declaring for the NFL Draft

Rover found this 1/15/2008 on fantasysportsoutlook.com

Going to go through the mock drafts that I track and see what changes have been made now that most of the underclassmen have made up their minds. Still waiting on word if Cal WR DeSean Jackson is going to throw his name in the hat, first rounder if he does. DeSean Jackson has a message for those who want to know if he is entering the NFL draft. He still doesn’t know. On the eve of the ...

San Francisco, CA (Sports Network) - Kevin Correia befuddled Cardinals batters over 7 2/3 scoreless frames, as the San Francisco Giants downed the St. Louis Cardinals, 5-1, at AT&T Park. Correia (1-1) mixed a sharp breaking ball with 2- and 4-seam fastballs, striking out four and ...
