After beating the Pats and the Titans, the Jets were talking contract extension. Now, they're starting fresh . How can things have changed so much since mid-season?
"This is not a decision that we reached yesterday, or 10 minutes ago," Johnson said. "This was a decision that was running ...

Congratulations, you have accomplished something no other team has ever done. You have gone 0-16. Instead of being mediocre, you have decided to take things to a greater level and have rivaled the Tampa Bay Bucs, circa 1976, as the worst team ever in the Super Bowl era of the NFL.
You did ...

The mystery of Mark Teixeira continues, but should conclude today. And yet there is contradictory information about his eventual destination.
Version #1 Sources have confirmed to Sons of Simmons, that the Boston Red Sox have agreed in principle to an eight-year deal with first basemen Mark ...

1. Age
Teixeira : Entering age 29 season
Ramirez : Entering age 37 season
Let's start with the argument I'm the most confused by: Teixeira is a huge risk because he'd require an 8 year deal. Sure, any deal that long has a lot of inherent risk. What I don't understand is why he's seen as ...

My fundamental theorem of betting on bowl games (especially against the spread) is to try and identify how motivated each team is likely to be.
History proves time and time again that in the "lesser" bowl games, a highly motivated team is likely to perform better than a team that is ...

With the Big Three automakers groveling at the feet of Congress, I admit that the fate of NASCAR popped into my head when thinking about the proposed bailout. But I also must admit that I ...

TENNESSEE at HOUSTON (+3) - The last time the Texans faced a team that was as committed to running the football as the Titans are, Houston lost 13-41 at home versus the Ravens. Football Outsiders has the Texans run defense ranked dead last in the league right now, and considering the competition ...

The Baltimore Orioles have evidently given up on waiting for right-hander Daniel Cabrera to live up to his potential.
The Orioles declined Friday to offer the arbitration-eligible starter a contract for 2009, making him a free agent.
I fail to see how this makes the Orioles a better team. ...

From the city that never sleeps, we bring you the newest FA signed by the Yankees: A.J. Burnett. This is the kind of high risk signing few teams other than the Yankees could afford. (Think Carl Pavano.)
The deal is $82.5M 5-year for an oft injuired right hander that last year had career ...

This is the first in what we hope will be many Swamp-user submitted posts. This is from papaduff, who in his spare time enjoys playing in corn mazes with Lou Ferrigno.

I remember a period when George would collect about half a dozen 1B/DH types and wonder why they couldn't all play in the same game.One of those guys only cost Jay Buhner. Today's move may be just as curious, but there may be more than meets the eye.
The Yankees have found their center ...

Brian Cashman did a lot of talking and hand holding these last three days to get Sabathia to sign. The Yankees, a franchise that seemingly has a love affair with hefty lefties, offered Sabathia the largest contract ever to a pitcher.
A $161 million, seven-year contract, with a three year ...
