Let’s get two things straight. First, this is
not Bob Knight’s Indiana University Hoosiers. Gone are the

Five years, $75 to $80 million. That’s likely
what it will cost the Red Sox to retain
left fielder Jason Bay. The 31-year-old, now officially a free agent, reportedly passed on a last minute, four-year, $60 million deal Thursday as Boston’s exclusive negotiating window inched shut. In honor ...

One of the functions of a league is
to ensure that the league has created a schedule
that entertains fans, but also draws as much money as possible. So, it is no surprise that the NFL wants to expand to more games, given that a large percentage of their games sell out as is. An increased amount ...

At times it was ugly. At times it
was long. But overall, two points are two points
and the Boston Bruins will take those however they can, even if it means being forced to a shootout, which is exactly what happened in Thursday night’s 4-3 victory over the Atlanta Thrashers. In front of an ...

Trent Whitfield is the perfect example of a
journey-man in the NHL. Although he might not be
a “Future Star” of the Bruins, as he is already 32 years old, he may contribute more than people think. Whitfield was originally selected by the B’s in the NHL Entry Draft in 1996 in ...

Two leagues. Six running backs. Three very bad
decisions. Sometimes, people make decisions based on careful analysis.
