New England Patriots – Tom Brady & a Question of Age
Posted on 3 Mar, 2013, by gerakis100 in FeaturedAfter the “storm” of how wise or wasn’t it to give Tom Brady a contract extension giving him and the New England Patriots a partnership that takes them into his fifth decade blows over, the real question will be if Brady continues to be an elite quarterback, on a top rated offense (mostly thanks to him), in four or five years from now.

Best & Worst Scorers in the NBA
Posted on 28 Feb, 2013, by Greg in FeaturedWhat makes the best scorer in the NBA? Is it simply the points? Kevin Durant, Kobe Bryant and Carmelo Anthony are leading that battle, but LeBron James and James Harden aren’t too far behind, and James is the best or second best from that group, because shooting ratios and volume scoring also come into consideration.

USA Basketball – Who Needs to Replace Coach K
Posted on 27 Feb, 2013, by Greg in FeaturedIt’s been 7 years with 2 Olympic Gold Medals for Mike Krzyzewski, building back a somewhat torn down Dream Team franchise with Jerry Colangelo that suffered from a disappointing run before Coach K took the reigns.

Biggest American Cities With No Major Sports Teams
Posted on 25 Feb, 2013, by gerakis100 in FeaturedA large population in a city or a metro area doesn’t necessarily mean you get to have a team in the NBA, NHL, MLB or NFL. For example, places like Austin in Texas, quite close to one million people, have to settle for the Texas Longhorns in College Sports instead of a serious pro-team, although I’m not sure the people there see it that way.

NBA Scorers a Dying Breed
Posted on 19 Feb, 2013, by Greg in FeaturedIf the pace and rate of scoring doesn’t make a drastic change in the next couple of months, despite the fantastic seasons of Kevin Durant, Kobe Bryant, Carmelo Anthony and LeBron James, the NBA will have the fewest number of 20-point-per-game scorers in nearly 50 years.

5 NFL Players Teams Should Use the Franchise Tag On
Posted on 18 Feb, 2013, by gerakis100 in FeaturedDeciding on using the franchise tag isn’t always a question of ability; it’s often about economics, or simply avoiding making a decision if possible. Joe Flacco, the biggest name in free agency this season, will probably be franchised by the Baltimore Ravens, who don’t want to pay him the kind of money his agent does. Michael Johnson, Jairus Byrd and Dwayne Bowe will join him in the tag list as well. More
