Do not mess with Dallas Braden.  Prior to his incredible perfect game this past Mother’s Day, Dallas Braden made headlines when he basically told A-Rod (Alex Rodgriguez if you’re baseball illiterate) to suck it when he publicly bashed him for breaking an unwritten baseball no-no.  Rodriguez crossed over the pitcher’s mound while returning to first base [...]

In the 5th round of the 2010 NFL draft last weekend in New York City, a monumental moment in sports history was made.  No, Michael Jordan didn’t decide to come out of retirement, and no, the 49ers didn’t decide to replace Alex Smith with 53-year-old Joe Montana to quarterback the team.  Ed Wang, a 6 [...]

I woke up this morning and was doing my daily scan of the top news stories and rumors when I almost choked on the blueberry muffin I had been stuffing down my throat.  I literally slapped myself to make sure I was actually awake.  What am I so worked up about you ask?

The last time Bay Area fans got ahead of themselves, the Giants still missed the playoffs despite winning 103 games in ’93 and then lost Game 6 of the 2002 World Series after having a commanding 5-0 lead in the 7th and leading the series 3 games to 2.  I hate to [...]

21 friggin catches for 200 yards.  And no, this wasn’t an entire season’s worth or even a handful of games.  It was in one single game.  These are numbers that make fantasy geeks have orgasms.  Oh, and don’t forget the two touchdown receptions on top of that as well.  Brandon Marshall not only amazed me on [...]

I still remember watching that “shimmy” shake when one of his 3 balls felt deftly into the hoop. He would have a little grin, and then you could just see it coming. Walker would look like a little kid trying to get out of a christmas sweater he didn’t like. His body would twist and [...]
