Eagles sign Dennis Dixon

Big Pick Up for the Eagles!!!!

Dennis Dixon is a very very very talented QB, and for the past 1.5 years, I've been wondering what happened to this fine young man.

3 Years ago, I thought Dixon out played Big Ben in Pit during the pre-season, and 2 years ago, Dixon started the first 4 games for the Steelers because Ben was out, and Dixon won 3 of 4 of those games, and actually performed well enough, in my opinion to pull of a Kaepernick in Pittsburgh.

Dixon is taller than Vick, more accurate than Vick and although, he isn't as fast as Vick, he's "28" young mature years old.

From national championship to jail for 4 Alabama football players

Criminal Activity by Football Players is unacceptable

For all the good a football player can do for his school, for his family, for his state, and for this nation, one instance of a football player, committing crimes such as "Robbery", will easily, remove all the good that any football player have done.

4 Alabama Football Players are accused of beating and robbing students on campus, and it doesn't seem to matter how or why these actions took place, the fact that these players are committing crimes is a sad thing.

Player regrets getting entangled with match-fixing

Ones Character reflects in life decisions and actions

Throwing games is a extremely distasteful act by any athlete playing in any sport.  Fixing games undermines the loyalty of the fans, it erode the trust that has been openly given to each team and each player.

Suffice it to say, if a person's character is bad, throwing a game isn't the most serious thing that this person is capable of.

Some of the characteristics of those with bad character are: "Selfishness, Disrespectful, Dishonesty, Un Willing to Share, Lacking Compassion, Liar, Thief, and Cheater".

Soccer player Mario Cizmek was arrested for match fixing, and this man has children.

For Soccer Fans, who are the most passionate and loyal fans of any sports around the world, I truly feel for you, in that, your loyalty and passion for your team may be unreciprocated by a team that have a group of players with bad character.

Wrestling dropped from 2020 Games

Very Bad Decision to remove "Wrestling" from Olympic Events

Wrestling is the "Quant Essential Olympic Sporting Event", in that, wrestling is a amateur athletic event.

To this day, I have never seen a professional Wrestling event televised on t. v., specifically, because Wrestling is a "amateur sport", and correct me if I'm wrong..., the Olympics is supposed to be a
"amateur athletic" venue.

Physical Fitness, Extreme Knowledge, and Years of Practiced Skills are required to compete on the world stage in the sport of wrestling.

Wrestling is one on one combat that require specific capabilities to score points, and a sport each and every individual can participate in, unlike a sports like "Equestrian, Archery, Canoe/Kayaking, or Luge".

Who are these idiots on the IOC?

In my opinion, it's the members of the IOC that should be dropped for lack of quality judgement capabilities.

Football racism fears in Israel

Oh.., how soon Israel forget

Israeli football team Beitar Jerusalem signed two Muslim players, the first time ever, adding Muslims on the Beitar Jerusalem Team.

Racist chants started by Israeli's who disapprove of adding Muslims to Israel's football team, and the teams management office was burned down.

Why does this scenario sound so familiar..... Oh, I remember, it was this identical type of racist responses that took place in the U.S. when the first black baseball player was signed on in Major League baseball 70 plus years ago.

Racism is a ugly human learned behavior and for an Israeli, to commit a racist act of any kind, is a indication that Jewish People have not learned from their own victimization by Hilter.

LeBron James Records Miami Heat Record 5th Straight 30-Point Game

The Man Beast is having fun while creating havoc

in the NBA

Lebron, "labeled "The Man Beast" at ASK FMB.COM", took his wrath to the Lakers yesterday, scoring a relaxing 32 points against Coby & Howard.

Monster Slams, raining 3 pointers, driving to the hole and slamming down dunks that no child should ever witness, the Man Beast decides when he wants to impact the game.

Even as good as Coby and Howard are as super stars in the NBA, the Gods stand and chant when the Man Beast opts to beat his chest.

There is no such thing as Beast Mode for the Man Beast, because the Man Beast is always on, and as a millimeter of light breaks between defenders, the Man Beast eyes widens and before anyone can prepare themselves, the Man Beast has already kicked open the door and the slam dunk is taking place.

I love to watch Lebron "Man Beast" as a joyful relaxed player, but, he knows that when the playoffs start, the Man Beast must reduce the smiles to scowls until the title is in his hand.

In what will surely be a very good Super Bowl based on the match ups, the two teams Ravens & San francisco, are seemingly, mirror image of each other, in terms of Defense, Offenses, Special Teams and lead by Brothers, the Harbaugh's.

The New England Patriots.... Gone, the Green Bay Packers... Gone.

A season that allowed more fans than every before, to feel some degree of pride because they have new talent that provides a team that competes, primarily because they found themselves with 5 new starting rookie QBs that performed like seasoned pros, raising their teams to playoff contention, and raising the entire NFL team standards to an all time high.

WE GOT OURSELVES A SUPER BOWL

Ravens woke up two weeks ago when Ray Lewis rejoined the team on the field and even Flacco have upped his game to top 10 QB level, and I asked this question last week, can 1 man cause an entire team to play like champions..., and the answer is yes.

San francisco, a quality team that brings toughness to each game for the past 2 years, but they were missing something, and they found that missing "thing" in their replacement QB Kaepernick, a tall slender and quick QB that represent the new type of athletic QB that has taken the NFL by storm, and his presence of a extremely talented offense have placed the 49er's at the top of the N F C.

Charles Woodson: We couldn't stop Colin Kaepernick

Welcome to the Future of QBing in the NFL

20 Years ago, every NFL Coach wanted to force their QBs to stay in a pocket, look for the receiver, and throw the football.

In 1970 thru 1999, Black QBs were bastardized for their ability to run the football, if the play breaks down..., they were called slow and not intelligent enough to manage a football team because they refuse to stay in the pocket and wait for receivers to get open, but, fans have always loved the QB that runs the ball to get that significant 1st down that allows the offense to continue moving down the field.

The Fans have always seen the QB that runs as a added excitement factor added to a otherwise boring format of standing in the pocket and getting sacked.

Can you say RG3, Wilson, Luck, Newton and Kaepernick?

The new bread of NFL QBs are taking over, and the teams that use these extremely athletic QBs to their advantage, have baffled those tough defenses that master the standard QB in the pocket format.

I LOVE IT I TELL YOU!!!

Kaepernick performance against the Green Bay Packers was the type of performance that every team in the league that have a mobile QB, ought to capitalize on, in that, tell that QB to take off when the rushing defensive line and the secondary have created a 10 yard gap in the defense allowing, the QB to chop off 10 yard runs and more, with ease.

And Kaepernick's ability to take advantage of this time of thought process, demolished the Green Bay Packer's D.

UNSTOPABLE

San Fran took advantage of having a mobile QB, and giving him the green light to run, ensured a win that most didn't believe could happen.

The Ravens Pulls Off a Huge Upset..., Steals a win in Denver

Can 1 Man change a Team?

Last week, Ray Lewis, returned to the Ravens line up, and holy crap batman, the Ravens Offense played good damn football, the defense played like the best D in the NFL.... WHAT THE HELL HAPPEND?

RAY LEWIS IS WHAT HAPPENED

Last week,, the Ravens Defense beat up on the Colts Offense, like they stole something, and trust me, the Colts had a quality Offense, but, the game seemed so lopsided, and I wondered, can 1 man cause everyone else on the team to "BELIEVE"?

Today, I wrote off the Ravens, in that, the Master QB Manning, will surely bring the wrath, and set the wrong right, but, noooooo,

it was the Ravens D that set the Wrong Right.

A Raven D that played like a young Ravens D of 5 years ago, took over the game, and restricting Manning "five fist style offense", to only 21 points, and it was that swarming D that forced Manning many 3 and outs.

Finally, Flacco woke up.... in what has to be, his best QB performance of the NFL Season for the Ravens, throwing "Hail Marry's" like Marry was watching over the "Hail Mary's".

Holly Hail Mary Batman....

Can 1 Man cause a entire team to believe?   HELL YES.....

Manning mistake sealed the fate for Denver, with a INT in OT that allowed the Ravens to place their kicker in a perfectly aligned field goal of 47 yards that served as the dagger that sent the beast home.

What a game, and I'm extremely impressed by the Ravens performance in a game they many, including me,  believed was inevitable, going to be a loss for the Ravens.

When ever I'm wrong..., it means that there was a good darn game.

Baseball writers balk at Hall of Fame class of '13

Voters.... What a bunch of "Hypocrites"....

Bonds, Sosa, and McGwire saved Baseball from itself, in that, in 1994 - 1995, the Major League Baseball Players went on strike, and after 11 months, an agreement was finally made.

However, the fans didn't come back, they were pissed, and frankly..., baseball had absolutely nothing to cheer about.

Players were getting paid to much, managers weren't managing, no hustle on the field, and to this day, the "Hit & Run, Sacrifice Bunt, and Squeeze Play" have completely disappeared, replaced with "record strike-outs, record low batting averages and jogging for fly balls".

In 1998, Mark McGwire and Sammy Sosa brought the fans back to the seats..., in huge numbers, and if it were not for those two, who knows what baseball would be today?

The Run between McGwire & Sosa, was absolutely

"MAGICAL",

and even I started watching games those two were involved in, and yes... baseball was back..., yet..,

twice as enjoyable because of the home runs.

Then, after the dust settled, in 2001,

Bonds smashes "73" HRs,

setting the single season HR Record, and then in 2006, breaking Hank Arron's Record...,

there was a reason to watch baseball...,

and not 1 Hall of Fame Voter had anything to do with the fact that baseball was worth seeing once again.

Robert Griffin III's lies, Mike Shanahan's poor management doom Redskins in playoffs

The Worse Coaching Judgment I have ever seen

Last week's game between the Dallas Cowboys and the Skins, it was evident that RG3's knee was a huge issue, and not only did Shanahan not plan to work out the back up QB, RG3's performance in the first quarter of the Wild Card game yesterday, was nothing short of heroic, in that, his getting 14 points on the board while running on "1" leg, should have been the determining factor to remove RG3 from the game.

With a 14 point lead, and RG3 obvious pain, putting the back up in the game would have at least allowed the offense a better chance managing the game.

But...nnnnnnnooooooooo

Mike Shanahan left RG3 in the game until 6 minutes left on the clock, and by then, it was far to late.

One must wonder how Mike Shanahan could have failed so bad in decision making?

There was a entire week to prepare the back up QB, and with a 14 point lead and the momentum, Mike Shanahan's lack of action sealed  the skin's fate, and if I'm not even on the field, and I'm not even a Coach, yet, I can conclude that RG3 couldn't play, I wonder why Mike Shanahan wasn't able to see the same thing.

I'm appalled at Mike Shanahan, lack of judgment, lack of coaching, and lack of understanding who the coach is and what his job title says.

A Tripple Tie for Rookie of the Year of 2012

LUCK      WILSON      RG3

Another good weekend of football across the NFL, and for the sport or, for the teams that have these tremendous talented rookies,

not only does these teams have a reason to cheer today,

the next 10 years for each of these teams, should not have any concerns about a QB position.

The Rookie of the Year, for the first time in NFL History, does not have a clear winner, or even two that stand out more than that one other, making this thing a 3 head horse heading to the tape.

For the Seahawks, there was a reason why the coach chose Wilson over the million dollar man they brought in to run the team this year, and it was a great eye and a great judgment by the coach.

The Jets Coaching Staff is an example of how frustrating it could be for the players when you play for people that are "Stupid".

I say that because, to have not figured out how to effectively use Tim Tebow this year, is a sign of a coaching staff that have no immagination, no ability to design plays based on talent, no ability to assess QB's talent skills and incorperate them in a season of NFL Football.

Tebow, a guy that may not have extreme talent, but, he is a proven winner, a person that "can throw the football", a person that "can run the football", and he's a pretty big tough guy, which is in itself, a challenge for most defensive secondaries.

Voter bias for QBs must cease, Vikings RB Adrian Peterson deserves NFL MVP award

MOST VALUABLE PLAYER in the NFL

This year, the NFL MVP, ain' t no shoe in for anyone or any position.

The Changing Dynamics that rookie QB's are bringing to the NFL, has changed the entire MVP thought process.

Lets see, a team MVP, can be bias, or personal, or political, in that, a team is only accountable for the team's organization and if a player is selected based on a combination of the Owner, Coaches and Players selection, the number of possible candidates may only be as high as 5 possible candidates, who played a role that are specific to that organization.

However, the NFL, is a organization's possible selections times 16 possible intangibles.

Particularly, this year because one can argue that RG3, Wilson, & Luck's value to each team's success maybe NFL League consideration, then, there is Manning who came off a neck injury after missing an entire year, and changing teams and the value of Manning's contributions to the success of the Broncos is something that ought to be considered as well.

Then there is Adrian Peterson, who has provided the same type of story as Manning, but as a running back.

So, who wins...., what are the NFL criteria...., has there ever been a tie...,

Josh Brent watches Sunday’s game from Cowboys sideline

Josh Brent Stands on sideline during the Dallas Game...?

There is a good reason why a lot of people felt that Josh Bren't presence on the sideline this weekend, wasn't an appropriate move by the Dallas Cowboys ownership and management.

Last weekend, the Cowboys and everyone in the NFL, sports fans, and other people who feel sorrow when a lost life is taken to soon, were all wondering why Josh Brent would drive drunk when the NFL, and NFL Teams, express "good decision making" when players are out and are drinking.

Josh's alcohol blood test registered at a .18, almost double the drunk driving threshold.., and with all the resources at his disposal, to include private numbers that he could have called, that would have provided a driver to pick him up, anywhere, when he feel that he have been drinking and would rather not drive.

NFL Players make millions each year, and these personal drivers only charge $80 bucks to retrieve a player, thereby, ensuring that a player is not putting himself, other drivers, or the NFL, in a tough situation.

Accountability..., a must message that Dallas has opted not to

ensure understood, by having Josh Brent on the sidelines.

The Message, sent by Josh Brent being on the sideline, is a message that suggests that Josh's decision to drive drunk and causing the death of a life long friend, was simply a mistake.

The Reality, Josh Brent's decision was extremely poor, and his previous issue with alcohol should have reminded the Dallas organization that they take "good decisions making"
