After a weekend of Clemson athletics we learned that maybe the soccer team is coming around and maybe the football team won’t. Where Credit’s Deserved First year men’s soccer coach Mike Noonan coached Clemson to a draw with #11 Boston College. It felt like a loss because Clemson scored early and BC scored the equalizer somewhat … Continue reading

Tampa Bay Doesn’t Deserve a Good Baseball Team
Following the Tampa Bay Rays’ 4-0 loss at home to the Baltimore Orioles – a game where the Rays could have clinched a playoff spot (UPDATE – The Rays clinched a playoff spot tonight, 9/28, with a 5-0 win over Baltimore) – Evan Longoria expressed what he justifiably feels. Longoria, along with teammate David Price, … Continue reading
Boise State 33, College Football 30
Gordon is Grumbling Yes, it’s official sports fans, the 2010-11 college football season is ruined already. Only this time, it’s not the BCS system or the pathetic cupcake games in week one ruining our fun. No, this time it was the most important game in week one that ruined the season for both fans and … Continue reading
Watch it Over Again
Sports fans love to complain when there’s a blown call. Choruses of boos routinely come from the bleachers, targeted right at the poor referees who 99 times out of 100 are doing their best and deserve the benefit of the doubt. Instead of complaining why don’t we fix the problem? Football, being less of a … Continue reading
Red Sox Treat Their Players Like Garbage
Johnny Damon’s decision to veto any trade to the Boston Red Sox further affirms my long held belief, that the Red Sox treat their players like garbage. After Damon’s tremendous contributions to the Red Sox franchise, they refused to give him a reasonable contract. The very next year they gave J.D. Drew a more lucrative contract than they offered to … Continue reading
A Good NHL Change
In a recent post I discussed how I don’t want to see the NHL keep changing its rules and thus veer away from the game hard-core hockey fans have come to know and love. However, some changes can be good, especially when they partially rectify past changes that weren’t so good. The league has taken … Continue reading
Revis Island – Population Zero
Gordon is Grumbling Here is something I never thought that I would catch myself saying on August 23rd, let’s talk football! It’s bad enough that we all have to tune into ESPN and watch highlights of the first quarter of a meaningless game between the Eagles and Jaguars or get updates every time Brett Favre … Continue reading
Why The Yankees Shouldn’t Sign Cliff Lee
This offseason the Yankees will most likely lose 2/5 of their starting rotation. Javier Vazquez has an expiring contract and is unlikely to be resigned while Pettitte will probably retire. The void will have to be filled somehow, and most Yankee fans want to sign the ace they missed at the trade deadline, Cliff Lee. Lee, will … Continue reading
My Guest Blog Post on LenNY’s Yankees
As a Yankees fan, I’m lucky enough to be a part of the largest, most passionate fan base in baseball. Lenny Neslin writes one of the better Yankee fan blogs on the web, and after a brief twitter conversation he let me write a guest post on his popular blog. Here it is: LenNY’s Yankees
Clemens: Who Cares?
OK, maybe most of America will be totally absorbed by the news that Roger Clemens has been indicted on federal perjury charges stemming from 2008, when he lied about using PEDs. But I honestly could not care less about this. There is not a less interesting story going on in the world right now, so … Continue reading
