    Eagles roster moves and updates

    The new-look Philadelphia Eagles have made some moves in the last day or so. Here are some quick bullet points on what they’ve done: -Signed former Dallas Cowboys RB Felix Jones. He’s a former first-round pick who has a career average of almost five yards per carry. His problem? He’s never healthy. He has big-play [...]

    Jackson to the DL, Garcia recalled

    Detroit Tigers outfielder Austin Jackson was hitting .272 this season, even if he wasn’t providing much power (two HR’s). So, he’s not a bat that you’re thrilled to lose in your lineup. But, lose him they will, as he’s been placed on the 15-day disabled list. Jackson is expected to need the full 15 days [...]

    South Jersey Triathlon to raise funds for injured vets

    It’s always good to see people exercising for the benefit of others. Especially when those other folks are injured veterans. And that’s exactly what’s happening on Memorial Day in Sea Isle City on Memorial Day Weekend. The “Tri-For-Our Veterans” will begin at 6:30 a.m. (these people must really care!) and benefit the Semper Fi Fund [...]

    Former Lion Young arrested…again

    It’s been a rough week for former Detroit Lions wide receiver Titus Young. Not long ago, he was a second-round pick whom the team had high hopes for. Now? He’s not on an NFL roster and probably won’t be ever again, barring drastic changes in his behavior. Young was arrested again on Friday on charges [...]

    Coples not working out?

    It’s the first day of rookie camp for NFL teams and the New York Jets are getting their first look at their first year guys. So, head coach Rex Ryan took time to talk about Dee Milliner and Sheldon Richardson? Nope. He actually started firing shots at a first year player from last year. Ryan [...]

    Belichick “hates” Tebow?

    Tim Tebow’s popularity – more than perhaps anything else – is killing him right now. Sure, he’s not a very good quarterback, has awful mechanics and is a nightmare in terms of accuracy. But, it’s the “Tebowmania” that could be as big of a reason for him remaining unsigned as his awful quarterback play. Since [...]

    Happ released from hospital (video)

    By now you’ve surely heard about Toronto Blue Jays pitcher J.A. Happ. Against the Tampa Bay Rays, he took a hard line drive right off the side of his head. We’ve seen pitchers get hit with comebackers before, but this was something different. Happ was knocked to the ground and needed to be taken off [...]

    Helton pleads guilty to DUI

    Slow news day, but we love making sure that we publish as many stories about athletes getting in trouble as possible. And since we mentioned the Todd Helton DUI arrest back in February, we feel compelled to issue a follow up. Helton has pleaded guilty to driving while ability impaired. He wasn’t hammered, but he [...]

    Vikings release Chris Kluwe

    When the Minnesota Vikings drafted UCLA punter Jeff Locke in the fifth round of this year’s NFL draft, the writing was on the wall for incumbent Chris Kluwe. Chances are, when you draft any kind of kicker in any round, that guy has a very high probability of making the roster. And since there is [...]

    Halladay likely to the DL…is he finished?

    Perhaps the biggest question mark for the Philadelphia Phillies entering the 2013 season was the effectiveness of Roy Halladay. He’s no spring chicken, has logged a ton of innings in his career and he had some injury issues last season. While Halladay has had some nice starts this year, his last two have been absolutely [...]

    Cardinals’ Washington arrested on assault charges

    This has not been a good off-season for Arizona Cardinals LB Daryl Washington. He was one of the brightest up-and-coming linebackers in the NFL (and still could be) until recently. We mentioned before that he’s already suspended for four games to start the season because of a positive test for a banned substance, and now [...]

    Revere not going to play every day

    Great news for Philadelphia Phillies fans! Not only does your outfield blow completely, but it’s actually worse than you think. The one guy who was expected to at least be decent (hit a few singles for you) at the plate, is hurt and awful. Centerfielder Ben Revere was an offseason acquisition who was supposed to [...]

    Rockies sign Oswalt to a minor league deal

    Whoa! Look out for the Colorado Rockies! Just when you thought they might not win the World Series this season, they go out and add Roy Oswalt. That’s right, the Rockies have signed Oswalt to a minor league contract, with nothing guaranteed. Photo Caption: In the past, Oswalt has worn #42 to salute Mariano Rivera. [...]
