After setting records this season for touchdowns & completions, Anthony Calvillo set yet another benchmark this past Monday versus the Toronto Argonauts by surpassing Damon Allen for the most passing yards thrown.

Posted on 28 Nov 2010 by Donovan Williams.

Not to mention I woke up at 1:30 Friday morning on an adventure searching for deals. And deals I found. In fact, I found so many deals that I was out until 6:00 pm at night. When I got home the Clippers were ...

WILL SOMEBODY OTHER THAN FANS SHOW SOME EMOTION
Posted on 25 Nov 2010 by Sean Eckhardt.
Is anger such a really bad thing? Today is Thanksgiving, but on every other day can't a little emotion be a good thing to see. The Miami Heat are struggling tremendously here in the early part of the season and other than Eric Spoelstra looking frustrated occasionally, the only emotion seems to be coming from the fan base. Why? I am sure that D-Wade, LeBron, and most of ...

Knicks/ ‘ Cats – Thanksgiving Eve 5 things
Posted on 25 Nov 2010 by Jordan Lauterbach.
Here are 5 somewhat connected thoughts on Wednesday nights win over Charlotte. 5, of course, representing the Knicks winning streak: 1. Where did this team come from? That’s a positive question, obviously. Every season has a few turning points.

If you ask a Football fan however, they are more than likely to say Thanksgiving because of the non-stop Football act...

Dissecting the Hiring of Terry Collins
Posted on 23 Nov 2010 by Jim Mancari.
Though the “decision” did not have as much hype as that of LeBron James' over the summer, it's official: Terry Collins is the 20th manager in New York Mets team history. As a fan, I find myself as cautiously optimistic about this hiring. To be honest, I had no true preference among the four candidates for manager. Each one brought interesting qualifications to the table but als...
