South Carolina’s defensive front is more oppressive than the communist party. Clemson OC, Chad Morris, said “It’s definitely the fastest defense we’ve seen this year.” Clemson’s offense has committed 11 turnovers in their last three games, two of them losses. Why would anyone expect them to perform well against this solid Gamecock defense? Well, let’s … Continue reading

Study Reveals That People Living in Charlottesville, VA Love London
Ok, the title is totally a lie, and I’m not even referencing London, England. Mike London, the second year head coach of the University of Virginia has done a great job, and I am assuming he’s already beloved in Charlottesville, Virginia, where the Hoos or Cavaliers, whatever their preferred title is, play their football. After … Continue reading
With Sabathia Staying In Pinstripes, What’s In Store For The New York Yankees?
With the recent news that Sabathia will remain in pinstripes for at least the next five seasons, Brian Cashman who also just signed an extension (for three years) can turn his attention to other offseason priorities, but those priorities will continue to revolve around the starting rotation (you like that pun there?). With Nova, Hughes, … Continue reading
The Yankee’s CC Conundrum
Big news from RotoWorld.com “CC Sabathia is planning to opt out of his contract by Monday night’s deadline, according to SI.com’s Jon Heyman. Sabathia will forgo the remaining four years and $92 million left on his contract and hit free agency.

Clemson Has Three Olympic Sized Hurdles Left
While sitting in Great Clips today, I read an article about FSU and the rest of the ACC becoming woefully irrelevant after Oklahoma beat Florida State in Doak Campbell. Of course, the writer didn’t have the benefit of watching the next five weeks of football before writing the article, as I did before reading it, … Continue reading
A First Look at The Hot Stove Season Ahead for The New York Yankees
Beloved Yankee Jorge Posada has likely played his last game in pinstripes. They simply can’t afford to block the DH slot with him and his defense has regressed beyond the point where he can play catcher. Sadly, they’ll have to let the great Yankee walk. As hard to swallow as that might be (made a bit easier … Continue reading
99 Yankee Wins Not Enough For A Trip To The ALCS
Dating back to 2001, the Yankees were 0-5 in playoff elimination games on the road. Of course, this streak came to an end in Detroit when the Yankees beat the Tigers 10-1 on Tuesday, but it was all for not, as the team with the best record in the AL lost game 5 at home … Continue reading
Believing in Clemson Football
This may end up being a nonsensical celebratory Clemson football post, but that’s ok because my alma mater, Clemson University, just beat three straight ranked opponents including an almost unrealistic 20-point beat down of ACC-power Virginia Tech in Lane Stadium! When the new polls come out in a few hours I expect Clemson to move to … Continue reading
Dear Braves and Red Sox…Sincerely The Mets
After last night’s historic finish to the MLB season, we take some time to put it all in context. For that, I invited an old friend who is a tried and true Mets fan. In 2007, he experienced a collapse not unlike those from Boston and Atlanta so he remembers what it feels like and … Continue reading
A METSmerizing Collapse
As a freshman at Clemson I wrote for a school newspaper. It was at the end of September four years ago, and the Mets had just wrapped the biggest baseball collapse of my lifetime. Seeing something pretty special in the Phillies comeback, to end what otherwise was a disappointing year where Boston won the AL … Continue reading
