With a dangerous combination of size and speed, Stanford Freshman TE Jordan Najvar looks to make an immediate impact with the Cardinal. Despite not putting up big numbers in high school, Jordan received scholarship offers from over 20 schools including local favorite Texas A&M. But Najvar settled on Stanford after his official visit to the campus. [...]

Headed to the Death Star, aka the new Cowboys Stadium, tonight for the first game ever. A few weeks back my boyfriend and I took the $16 tour of the stadium, you can see my review here. But tonight’s pre season game versus the Tennessee Titans is the first time close to 100K people will descend on [...]

Florida State QB Christian Ponder doesn’t have to look over his shoulder any longer. After winning the FSU starting job from incumbent Drew Weatherford last season, Ponder had to deal with speculation about his status as the starter for most of the season. Say hello to 2010 and goodbye to Drew Weatherford. Ponder has now firmly [...]

The real losers in the ‘alleged’ John Calipari/Derrick Rose scandal are the University of Kentucky administration officials who hired Calipari. We know Calipari is a loser and obviously Derrick Rose is one as well. But what about the KY administration officials who knew about this investigation and the prior scandal at UMass and decided to hire [...]

While the Seminoles prepare to replace six starters on defense, Sr Linebacker Dekoda Watson prepares for his new role as a leader. A return to national prominence for Florida State starts with getting back to the ACC Championship game. Watson’s leadership role will be critical for a team that went 3-3 down the stretch and returns [...]

I’m a big fan of hall of famers returning to the place that made them famous. The return of Pudge Rodriguez to Arlington is special. The all-time franchise leader in hits makes his re-debut as a starting catcher this evening and I’m hoping just as many fans are headed to celebrate him as are headed next [...]

We often hear that quarterback is the most difficult position to play in football and while that may be the case I’m beginning to think it’s not as difficult as some former QB analysts would lead us to believe. How else do you explain Greg Paulus being named as the starting quarterback for Syracuse. Is Syracuse [...]

He’s The Real McCoy alright. Not since the Marlboro Man has there been a better named Texan than Colt McCoy.

An often-cited story relates to McCoy’s birth: his parents were from Texas but his father, Brad McCoy, was working just across the Texas border in Hobbs, New Mexico. Brad McCoy reportedly brought a shoe-box of Texas dirt [...]

After spending a few days of hard work ‘researching’ college football hotties I had #24, Gators WR Paul Wilson, as a solid top ten hottie. So what happened to Wilson to warrant such a precipitous drop in the SportsFags College Football Hottie Preview? Wilson, who missed all but two games last year due to injuries, re-broke [...]

Wow, what a week for freshman QB Matt Barkely. First, it appears the true freshman is pulling ahead of the once heir apparent Aaron Corp in the QB battle at USC. Then, in the same week, he’s ranked #25 in the SportsFags College Football Hottie Rankings! Hummm, I wonder which one he’s more excited about. Barkley, at 6’3″ [...]

The surprise comeback of Michael Vick overshadowed Tom Brady’s triumphant return to the NFL. While the Partiots walked away with the preseason win the Eagles signed another offensive player with first-round draft pick ability.

The NFL preseason is underway but a lot of eyes are still tuned to baseball and the American League wildcard race. This weekends battle between the Texas Rangers and Boston Red Sox has plenty of drama and story lines. The Red Sox have a 1/2 game lead over ther Rangers and four game lead over the [...]

I can’t help but wonder will Dante Stallworth’s return to the NFL receive as much coverage and outrage as Michael Vick? He was suspended for a year by NFL commissioner Roger Goddell for DUI manslaughter? DUI is something that most Americans have heard of, done and joked about. Dog fighting is a dark under world, seedy [...]

Hey it’s Matt here! Time has really flown by since the last time that I wrote a blog. It’s been ages it seems, and time hasn’t been friendly with me, as I have had a lot of things to worry about, and accomplish before September. I don’t work at Wal-Mart anymore as one could imagine, it was [...]
