Wow! Guess hes been having health issues for awhile and he's leaving Florida after there bowl game new years day.

Anyone who hasnt seen this documentary on Ali should find when its playing and check it out. The best sports documentary I've seen. It was on Spike TV a couple days ago and will probably run again.

One of my all time sports heroes, along with the rest of the Fearsome Foursome, when I was a boy. R.I.P. Deacon

They are playing Towson State at 7:00 PM CST tonight on ESPN2.

The Mitchell Report is going to be released in about 20 min or so. It's already leaked out that Roger Clemens will be named and it's expected to name anywhere from 50-80 additional players.

I'm not usually a football fan, but if each match would end like this one I could become interested.... Our Montreal's Alouettes were so incredibly lucky. It's realy sad for the other team. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9a_Qy0CheQI Amicalement

Rather than revive the 2014 thread I figured I'd get a new one going. Don't tell the boss, but not a lot of work is going to get done Thursday and Friday. My bracket... here goes nothing!

So apparently hockey interest has waned quite a bit here, but wanted to start a thread for the playoffs, round 2 and on. Liking the Bruins, they were so much fun to watch this year and just got out of the first round. Toronto just matched up very well with them, and I'm hoping the regular season match-up with the Lightning carries into this series. Just finished watching the Caps & Pens game, glad Caps won this. Series will be great to watch, some great skill, physical play, and genuine dislike going on here. As a Bruins fan, hoping the Bruins get to the next round, I want to see this series go 7 games and get them all tired out Happy also to see SJS…

Do we have an HC fantasy hockey league? If not, any interest? If yes, I could play with you?

This is probably going to be minority interest, but the precursor to American Football is Rugby. Elliptical ball and two teams of enormous brutal guys (and now women too). Rules of play are more cryptic (much) than American Football, and there is no defensive gear at all - no padding, no helmets (other than a soft one to protect cauliflower ears). Lots of injuries - it is not uncommon for a player to go off bleeding profusely from a cut, have it stitched, and go back on again. The odd broken bone, the odd concussion. Everyone has had a broken nose at some point. There are two variants of Rugby - Union and League. The rules are different. League has more in comm…

Hello... I like cricket so any member here interested in cricket because i want to start forum related to it and replies from other members....

...finally got a decent QB...let's take a quick inventory of our past OB's (from at least when I was born - 1982) Jim McMahon Mike Tomczak Jim Harbaugh Eric Kramer Rick Mirer Shane Matthews Cade McNown (ouch) Jim Miller Chris Chandler Henry Burris (ouch ouch) Kordell Stewart Craig Kenzel (who?) Chad Hutchinson Kyle Orton Rex Grossman Brian Griese ...and now Jay Cutler...woot:D

The NFL season has started and my team I liked since I was 6 is just killing me . But, there are many shining moments like this one . Bam

Yesterday the team from Hawaii overcame a 5 to 1 deficit in the top of the sixth to win 7 - 5 to make it to the title match against Mexico. They were the underdogs against favored Mexico, but won 12 - 3. Just wanted to say congratulations to the boys from Waipio representing my home town . Iolana Akau made this diving catch while playing with a hairline fracture of his left elbow and homered today.

Both Mizzou and WVU are losing right now. What a mess the BCS will be if they both end up going down. God I love college football

Just wondering if there're any Red Sox fans here? So far so good, though I hope Coco will come back quickly from the injury. I like how Beckett has done to this point and let's hope his chronic blister problem doesn't surface this year.

If this "source" is legit, I pray they put this a-hole under the damn jail. Better yet...put him in the pit with several of his own dogs and let justice be served. I have absolutely no sympathy for sick, pathetic individuals who abuse animals like this. Again, if it's true. According to this article, the source is a good one and legit. Kicking him out of the league simply isn't enough. He needs to do time and a lot of it. JMO http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/news/story?id=2884063

Surprised no one has made a thread about this yet. Who's ready for some fun?

Damn, that was a fun game. Spain totally kicked Germany's ass.

....*yawns*

Anyone else watching the draft today? I was thrilled that Mendenhall fell all the way down to the Steelers at #23 I think he'll be a perfect fit.
