The 2007- 2008 NFL season is approaching quickly. It’ll all start on September 6 when the New Orleans Saints go to Indianapolis to play the World Champ Colts.

I don’t respect what Michael Vick did in terms of the treatment of animals. If you love dogs, any animals or have any compassion for life, it’s tough to feel much more than disgust for the guy.

The college football season is almost upon us, with 11 games kicking off Aug. 30. And while more than 700 Football Bowl Subdivision games will be played this autumn, like any other season, a select few will be slated as potential Games of the Year. That said; here’s a look at the 10 regular-season games we’re most looking forward in 2007:
10) (tie) Miami at Oklahoma, TCU at Texas, Sept. 8–Seems more programs are coming around to the idea of not scheduling Austin Prey and friends in the early goings.
First up, there’s the rematch of the 1987 Orange Bowl in which Miami won, 20-14, to claim the national title. The programs haven’t met since.
As for TCU-Texas, the former Southwest Conference rivals haven’t met since 1995, and while the Frogs upset of OU in 2005 was monumental for the program, a win in Austin would mean tenfold in terms of in-state recruiting and pride.
Incidentally, the Hook ’em Horns hand signal originated at the 1955 TCU-Texas game.
9) LSU at Alabama, Nov. 3–To many Crimson Tide fans, Nick Saban (above right) could earn his entire contract with a defeat of his former team in Tuscaloosa. LSU has won four straight over ‘Bama.

There’s more bad news for the Colts. First there was the release of DT Corey Smith. Smith came to the Colts in 2005 after playing six seasons with the Eagles. In 13 games with Indy, he had 35 tackles, 26 solo and no sacks. Near the end of the 2005 season, he suffered a knee injury. Continue reading “NFL- Colts Smith Let Go and McFarland Tackled by Injury”
We are about six weeks away from what I feel is the best time of the year when it comes to sports. Late-September to late-October gives us the opportunity to see baseball, football, basketball and hockey all being played at just about the same time!
No, not the New England Patriot quarterback Tom Brady, but the former Notre Dame and as-of-yet unsigned Cleveland Brown QB Brady Quinn. Quinn has now missed eight days of training camp due to contract issues and that is not good for Quinn or for his team.
The first USA Today College Coaches Poll for the 2007- 2008 NCAA football season is out and USC has landed on the top of the heap, and it is quite a heap.
Okay, one team just got stronger. The Celtics of Boston may be the most improved team in the NBA as yesterday they added veteran superstar Kevin Garnett to the club after signing Ray Allen earlier. Paul Pierce, a Celtic vet who has suffered through some tough seasons must be smiling.
The Knicks got Zach Randolf and the Magic signed Rashard Lewis in an attempt to get to the playoffs. Still, the Knicks need defense and the Magic, like Boston, are looking for a point guard. Continue reading “NBA- Knicks and Magic Make Deals”
