In my first interview as a writer for
The Hazean I was able to land Gregg Rosenthal
for some questions. He runs a blog called Pancake Blocks and works for Rotoworld. He has some very cool thoughts on blogging, football, and fantasy drafting strategies. Click the jump to read the interview.
Last year, I locked in my Super Bowl
pick early and felt very good about the choice.
For once, I wasn't trying to do a roster breakdown or getting myself all tied up in strengths and weaknesses. I was looking for a team with a chip on its shoulder, ...
Quickly, hat tip to The Art Monk Hall
of Fame Campaign , the most comprehensive Art Monk
compendium on the internet, dutifully committed to righting the horrible wrong that is his ommission from the Hall of Fame. For those of you unfamiliar with the site , it has virtually every Art Monk Hall of Fame related article spanning decades now, along with a list and contact for all the voters, and ...
One of the more interesting traditions to observe
as a Broncos fan was the offensive line’s refusal
to talk to the press at all (with the rare exception of Super Bowl weeks and a quote or two in training camp). This is why, when the Broncos ...
In the offseason, when I was carrying on
with my, "That's it ... all the pieces are
in place," rant, a few negative voices were heard. "Why," I was asked, "did Allen's production usually fall off in the second half?" And my answer was because he was ...
To anyone who watched the NFL in the
1970s, Ken Stabler was the definition of the greatness
of the Raiders. He has been retired since 1983, but has not been named to the Hall of Fame thanks to a petty grudge by SI's Dr Z.
Attention writers who are now meeting to select
the new induction class for the Pro Football Hall
of Fame, put Ray Guy in. It is being held against him that his position was punter, but punters are one of two positions that put the FOOT in football. Guy was a master at his position, evidenced by the numerous awards that he won during his playing career for being the best player at his ...
Notes on a trip to the Super Bowl
. Sports Illustrated NFL writer Paul Zimmerman, better known
as Dr. Z, has a reputation as the old curmudgeon of the football writing business. I met him today, and he lived up to that reputation. I introduced ...
The Dolphins used one of two second-round picks
on defensive end Phillip Merling.
I'm sure everyone on the planet has heard
that Sports Illustrated NFL writer Paul Zimmerman, Dr. Z,
has picked the Minnesota Vikings to win the Super Bowl this year. www.rawsportsblog.com
Dr. Z (Paul Zimmerman) of SI.com is the
first person to pick the G-Men over the Pats
in the Super Bowl, and he won’t be the last. But to all the media members out there who want to join or create their own Giants bandwagon: please don’t. The Giants have been media starved the past three weeks when it [...]
Dr. Z grades all 42 Super Bowls, placing
XLII at the top of the list.
Running back Jonathan Stewart was drafted No. 13
overall by the Carolina Panthers.
After getting a preliminary list of Hall of
Fame nominees, SI.com's Dr. Z recruits a true football
historian to review the biggest names, including Terrell Davis.
I went to a whorehouse in Singapore with
Rocky Bleier in 1973. Maybe it was 1978. Either
way, you should remember that Bleier was a tough NFL running back that helped the Steelers win all those championships in the seventies. And this was AFTER ...
So here's something we hadn't realized: Billy Joel
is singing the national anthem at the Super Bowl
. Though we are impressed that the NFL remains current and cutting edge with their selection of everyone's favorite rapidly decaying crooner, we are...
I write this column at about the same
time, every year. It's the Hall of Fame's annual
telephone directory, a.k.a. the preliminary ballot. It has more names on it than the voting registers of both Denville and Mountain Lakes, N.J., and is about as ...
In this week's Power Rankings, SI.com's Dr. Z
tries to sort out all the 5-6 teams. Find
out which teams are for real and which are frauds.
Sports Illustrated's Dr. Z, Paul Zimmerman, is out
with a look through the Preliminary List of Hall
of Fame candidates. With the help of retired Packers GM Ron Wolf, it's an interesting read. There are two Giants who are on the list -- Phil Simms and Mark Bavaro. I love both guys, but don't think either one belongs in the Hall of Fame. The full post examines why.
Posted by ( nirajkp ) on June 8,
2008 at 8:12 a.m. ( Suggest removal ) Ira,
first ballot or not, Sapp deserves to be in the Hall of Fame. How many plays did he destroy by being a disruptive force? No one has found the next Sapp, not even the Bucs. He ...
