I just read a great article in the San Francisco Chronicle about Jeff Fuller who wore #49 for the 49ers in the mid to late 80’s. As some of you will remember, Fuller was a rising star for the 49ers, but his career was cut short by an injury suffered in a helmet-to-helmet tackle against [...]
There are some interesting matchups this weekend in the Major League Baseball Interleague Play. There’s the Bay Bridge Series between the San Francisco Giants and Oakland As. Barry Zito will pitch tonight against his former club. Down in Los Angeles, the Freeway Series also starts tonight between the Los Angeles Dodgers and Anaheim Angels. In [...]
Don’t get me wrong. The Utah Hackers deserved to win the series against the Golden State Warriors. The Warriors just self destructed in this series. After watching two Warriors series against the Dallas Mavericks and Utah Hackers, I’m done watching the NBA because one thing, NBA officiating sucks. These fools don’t have a clue on [...]
USA defender Heather Mitts will miss the World Cup this September due to an injury suffered in last week’s game against Canada. Mitts tore her anterior cruciate ligament in her left knee in the 25th minute in the 6-2 win over Canada. Mitt’s has been a fixture in the US Womens National Team the last [...]
Rumor has it that interim head coach Bob Bradley will be named head coach of the USA Soccer Mens National Team. It has been an arduous process for USSF to name a successor to Bruce Arena who was let go after last year’s World Cup Tournament in Germany. There were rumors of Jurgen Klinsmann being [...]
The Golden State Warriors are down 3-1 games to the Utah Hackers in the best-of-seven series in the quarter finals of the NBA playoffs. No matter how “we believe” in the Warriors, winning this series being down 3-1 is a highly improbable feat especially since the Warriors haven’t shown to their fans and the Hackers [...]
US midfielder Clint Dempsey scored his first ever goal in the Premiereship when Fulham beat Liverpool 1-0 in a game when Fulham needed a win to avoid relegation. Dempsey came in as a substitute in the 52nd minute and ignited the Fulham offense. Liverpool’s manager Rafa Benitez sat most his starters in preparation for the [...]
USA Soccer still has no coach. Well, that’s not true. Bob Bradley is currently the interim coach. USSF (US Soccer Federation) said they will make a decision by end of May. It’s May 11th and US soccer fans are getting antsy. At least, I am. You figured after Bob Bradley has had a successful start [...]
With less than a minute to go, the Warriors were in full control of their destiny to tie the series at 1-1. All the Warriors needed to do was make their freethrows. Michael Pietrus misses both of them and Baron Davis misses another one in their next possesion. Utah ties the game to send it [...]
The more I watch the NBA, the more I realized the referees are incompetent. Name any game in the current playoff series this year and I’ll point out many blown calls by referees from traveling, blocking, charging, ticky-tacky fouls, phantom calls and undeserved technicals. It’s so frustrating as a fan. I realized referees are humans, [...]
