Sport Dirty Dirt!

sportsdork36 — Fri, 09 Jan 2009 18:33:12 +0000

Hello all sports dirt fans. Alot has been going on since I have last wrote. There is much more to talk about too. Where to start? We could start with President Elect Barack Obama feels that the NCAA Football needs a playoff system. He has much bigger things to worry about that the College football. In his statement last night that he is not going put any of Congress’s time into making that happen. He has to help the country produce 300 million jobs before he worries about the BCS.

Next up OJ Simpson is finally where he should of been in 1996, behind bars. He was found guilty of all counts of Robbery and is serving a lenghty sentence. The judge in this case was stated as saying that his sentence is not a pay back for any past sentence. I bet it feels good for the Goldman and Brown family to finally get closer on there case, now that the Juice is behind bars.

Illinois Governor Rod Blagojevich was arrested on December the 9th on corruption charges. What a lovely state I live in. Only in America is it the place where the governor’s make the License Plate. That is all I am saying about that.

So does anyone else have anything to add?

What a weekend for Football!

sportsdork36 — Mon, 13 Oct 2008 03:44:12 +0000

What an unbelievable weekend for football. It all started on Saturday, with the show down in Texas. Oklahoma come in as the number one team in the nation and leaves with a loss. Oklahoma State goes into Missouri and beats them. LSU goes into Florida and comes out with a loss. This shows and anyone can get beat on any given day. Michigan gets beat by Toledo team that is not well know. Illinois on there homecoming gets beat in a great game against Minnesota. North Carolina beats Notre Dame by a point. Is Notre Dame for really? I do not think so. I feel that are no where the talent level that they where when they played during the 90′s, but they could be there in a few years. Joe Paterno has a Penn State team that could play for the National Title. He is doing an unbelievable job with a team that was not picked to win the big 10. They go into Wisconsin and beat them to a pulp. Georgia shows why they where rated number 1 in the preseason polls beating a Young Tennessee team. So where does it go from here. The NCAA Football season is not won or lost in September or early October. I feel that there is going to be a 1 loss team in the National title game. I think that Penn State can run the table and be one of the only undefeated team and that Joe Pa will ride off into the sunset with a National Title.

Now lets get to Sunday. Five Games end at the Wire. Arizona beats those Cowboys on a blocked punt in overtime. Atlanta rides a great pass with six seconds to go in the game by Matt Ryan to beat the Chicago Bears with a field goal. Minnesota beat the Detroit Lions by a field goal at the end of the game. The Houston Texans beat the Miami Dolphins with a touchdown pass at the end of the game by Matt Schaub. The game that I like was Brett Farve showing that he still has it and the New York Jets left the Cincinnati Beagles winless. What a season so far and it is not even half over. My Pittsburgh Steelers have the toughest schedule in the league and they are 4 and 1. They are going to show everyone what it is all about and win a sixth superbowl ring. You have heard it hear first.

So what game this weekend was the best game you watched? What Surprises did you see this week? I would really like to hear from you.

Lane Kiffin: Your Fired!!!!

sportsdork36 — Wed, 01 Oct 2008 14:59:13 +0000

The circus in Oakland plays on. Raiders owner Al Davis ended the 3 week drama yesterday and fired Lane Kiffin over the phone. He didn’t let him make it to work. The biggest think to it all is Davis was able to let him go without pay! So how does that work? Davis stated that he picked the wrong guy. I am sorry Al but you have picked the wrong guy to run the team in your self. You Al Davis should not be running this team! You Al Davis should fire yourself! This team has been in shambles when you are the one picking the talent and the assistance coaches. Let your head coach have a say who he wants to work with and you could have another superbowl ring. I do like the young talent that you have in there on offense, you have players to build around. Let your coach develop them and keep your nose up in the press box where it belongs and off the side line. So my advice to you Al Davis is stay in the press box, hire a GM and let him build your team.

Running back by Committee in Pittsburgh

sportsdork36 — Wed, 01 Oct 2008 14:29:48 +0000

First Willie Parker hurts his right knee and misses the Monday night show down with the Ravens. Next Rashard Mendenhal goes down in the 3rd quarter of the Raven game with a separated shoulder. Carey Davis goes down in the 4th quarter with a sprained angle and the Steelers are down to one running back. Mewelde Moore the third down running back had to do it all in the 4th quarter. What happens if he gets hurt? Lets bring in Heath Miller to play running back. Lucky he made it through the game and they came out with a win. They have a hugh test this Sunday night against Jacksonville.

What did the Steelers do? they go out and sign Najeh Davenport back and bring in Gary Russell from the practice squad. I would not of brought back Davenport with the likes of Cedric Benson or even Shaun Alexander. Benson was signed by the Bengals and Alexander is still out there. Why not sign him? He would fit the mold well. He is a great runner and is able to block.

So with running back being thin it could be a long season. Lets hope Parker comes back strong. Ben Roethlisberger needs to step it up and show his leadership like he did on Monday night. Plus, the offensive line needs to really earn there money! If they do not it is going to be a long year. Ben is going to spend more time on ground than the whole team in the end zone.

Yankees need to get A Rod out of Town!

sportsdork36 — Wed, 24 Sep 2008 17:27:07 +0000

If the Yankee’s want to win in 2009 my suggestion would be to get rid of Alex Rodriguez! A rod is a great player to have for the regular season but in my mind he does not bleed Yankee Blue. I feel that he needs to be shipped out of town and the team needs to eat the money they gave him. Yeah he can hit, but they need pitching. They need to get some soild young talent into the mix. I would say start with A Rod and trade him to a team like the Chicago Cubs, who could put him at Shortstop and he is away from the American league and try to get some of there young arms to put in the bullpen. Steinbrenner jr really needs to consider it. They need Pitching in the worst way.

If they do not deal A Rod, get rid of the old players and start young. Get rid of Johnny Damon, Jason Giambi and bring in young players. Let Joe Giardi work his magic with a young team. I would take a bad year with young good talent, then a long bad year with good talent. Lets see what the young guys can do.

Sports Dirt NCAA Football Game of the Week

sportsdork36 — Wed, 10 Sep 2008 16:41:55 +0000

USC vs. Ohio St.

This game is going to probably decide who goes to the National Championship. Ohio St has been there 2 years in a row and lost. USC is running on all Cylinders again. I think for Ohio St to win this game they are going to have to get the fans involved and play great defense and run the ball. Ball Control will win the game. In the End though I think USC is to good. They will win 47-41.
