O's Offseason
Well, whether you know it or not, the baseball offseason begins in earnest tomorrow with the start of free agency.Needless to say the Orioles have holes, but I find it really hard to gauge how active they will be this offseason. As I have said on many occasions, I think MacPhail's premise of grow the arms and [...]
It's Time to Beat Indy
Folks... it is time to beat Indianapolis.For obvious reasons I despise Indy (think Mayflower Moving Vans on a snowy March night).To my dismay, they have been terrific in the NFL over the last decade, and they have in Peyton Manning, without question, one of the all time great quaterbacks. And, even worse than all of that, they have [...]

More Must Wins to Come...
The Ravens' win over the Denver Broncos was obviously a must. And it should be celebrated, because they remain in the playoff hunt, and it was probably their best all around effort so far this season.But, if the Ravens want to remain in the playoff hunt, they must win this Sunday (at 5 and 2 [...]

Number 5
I know this story is a little old, but it is still worth mentioning. My experience covering the "Night with Brooks" event at the Meyerhoff Symphony Hall on Monday night was amazing.To me Brooks Robinson is the greatest 3rd baseman who ever lived. But, what he means to me and this community goes well beyond [...]
Week of rest for Ravens
So the Ravens hit their bye week as a 3 and 3 football team. They have suffered 3 straight losses (all to good teams) by a total of 11 points. So, it's clear at least in my opnion the Raven's aren't a bad team. The question to be determined over the next 10 weeks of [...]
A ?Rush' to instanity
I have such a problem with the NFL Players Union speaking out against Rush Limbaugh's effort to purchase the St. Louis Rams.Let me start by saying this blog is not defending Rush Limbaugh's political beliefs or his radio show. My views are completely irrelevant.What I do know is that in the United States of America, Rush Limbaugh is allowed [...]
Big Game on Sunday
Who would have thought... Ravens v. Bengals week 5 would be a gigantic game. Just think about the consequences of a loss for the Ravens.Baltimore would be 3 and 2 overall and 1 and 1 in the division. They will still have to go to Cincy and Pittsburgh, and of course the Steelers would still [...]
