The Angels give Trout $510k, only $20k over the minimum. $510k for a legitimate MVP candidate? I generally don't sympathize with a bunch of overpaid athletes but that's only about 1/2 of what they should have given him. And if they were smart they would have given him one of those 5-year, $25M deals...

The Superbowl needs to be held at Lambeau Field. It's football mecca. Don't care if the stadium is too small or doesn't have the proper facilities nearby. Don't care if there's a possibility that it could be -30 with the windchill at game time. Don't care that a bunch of pussies would whine about it...

It's a wonder it's not a flag football competition..

Flag football has more contact.

If the East/West game bored you to death than the Senior Bowl will too, my advice would be find something else to do.

Watching paint dry would be more entertaining than most football-related alllstar games. There's more hard hits at a chess tournament.

I hate the extra week between the Conference games and the Superbowl. The Pro Bowl is the absolute worst allstar game in sports, and the extra media hype before the SB takes away from the game itself. We can really do without all the story lines and the over-analysis. I think this year's Superbowl h...

Pedro Martinez is now an assistant to the Red Sox GM. It's cool to have Pedro around again. His interviews will eb the most entertaining think about the Sox this year.

Is it wrong to think that this is the best signing the Sox have made in about 5 years?

You also have to factor in how long Young sat behind Montana before he took over as well as his pre Niners. The hits played a role for sure, but so did age. Young was almost 40 when he hung it up. If I remember correctly it was the concussions that finally caused Young to retire. The scrambling QBs...

I discount any of the passing or receiving records set since they changed the coverage rules and then neutered the d-backs. I think the records need to be kept to eras: 12 game schedule, 14 game schedule, 16 game schedule, salary cap, pussified rules era. Somethings to think about: What would they ...

This is gonna be pretty funny When RG3 hits the field and starts playing well again, I have no doubt that. Culpepper tore his shit up and was never the same but didn't have the heart RG3 has, that kid is gonna work his ass off rehabbing and be just fine. He just needs to slide, thats it, His one re...

RIP Earl Weaver. "Pitching, defense, and 3-run homers."

It's not so much the success they have on the field, there's also the $$$ that goes along with the success. Any guy that makes $5M a year for an extended period of time is going to attract good looking women. Their first wives that they meet while working up through the ranks might not necessarily b...

Confirmed: Gronkoski broke his forearm again. His season is over.

How the fuck is that not a fumble? Give me a break. I'll give you that one, but quit your fucking whining about the rest of that crap. I believe the refs make all the close calls in favor of the team that's behind when one team starts to pull away big in a playoff game, and I think the league wants...

How the fuck is that not a fumble? Give me a break.

Wow, these refs are starting to suck. First they throw the flag when a defender knocked down the NE punter and and decided to pick up the flag. And then they get time put back on the clock where the replay shows the whistle blew as the clock hit 00. And not exactly sure Foster got in on that TD, alt...

Wow, turned out to be a close one!
WTF was Atlanta thinking with that squib kick with 6 seconds left? They should have booted it through the end zone and made Seattle take a hail mary from the 20.

Looks like Atlanta forgot there was a 4th quarter and let their foot off the gas. That was one of the worst throws by Ryan into double coverage. All they really needed to do there was go down the field, take a little time off the clock, and tack on a FG to go up 3 scores and this thing would have be...

27-7 Atlanta with 2 minutes left in the 3rd. That 7+ minute scoring drive by Atlanta should be a backbreaker. It's looking like SF @ Atl next week. Should be a good game. I haven't seen too much of Atlanta this year other than at the end of the season after they had everything wrapped up. But I've s...

Steroids and HGH might not make an average person into a HOF'er, but they could certainly turn an average ballplayer into one. Example: Player is a .250 hitter with warning track power who hits 10-12 HR's a year. The guy would be a utility infielder or 4th outfielder, potentially a starter for a sma...

Taking a knee with 30 seconds left in regulation was pretty weak. They should have taken a shot downfield. But Fox probably knew Manning's record in the playoffs and figured he'd throw another Pick-6.

What a game. WHAT A GAME. I'm disappointed about the ending because that throw was very un- Peyton like. I have never seen him make such a poor decision in a crucial spot. However, that game should have never gotten to overtime. The Broncos pathetic defense blew it, and John Fox's conservative play...

Joe Montana over Manning or any other QB that has played the game.

And fitting that Peyton "9 and 11" Manning threw a pick to set up the game-winning score.

Wow, what a game! 2 OT
Better than all the games last weekend put together.

Here comes OT.

And Flacco has outplayed Manning through 4 quarters.

How about a collage of Griffin getting the RoTY award, Brady holding up a Lombardi trophy, a "Peyton Manning face", and Luck throwing a pick. Covers most of the bases and has nothing offensive, so if he tries to weasel out of that he comes across as the biggest puss in the locker room(not ...

Going into halftime Manning has already thrown for 3 TD's:
2 for Denver and the 1 Pick-6 he threw to Baltimore

Wow, Baltimore beat Indy by 2+ TDs. Nobody saw that coming...

Down by 15 with 5:35 to go and...Luck tosses an INT

Luck = MVP...Massive Volumes of Picks
