As children we pretended to run the 2-minute drill all the time. I'm sure you can remember pretending to be (insert your favorite childhood QB) and maneuvering your team down the field and into the end zone as time expired.
Last minute game winning come from behind drives. It's what defines the careers of almost all of our great quarterbacks. Taking the team on your back, marching them down the field against both the defense and the clock and sticking it in the end zone. It's what NFL le... Read Full Story

We've got to lead with this one as it ended with perhaps the ultimate finish. This was one of those games where you will remember where you were when you saw it. A 99 yard drive to win the game ending with no time left on the clock. I'm sure the 99 yard drive will get a catchy nick-name.

A recap of what went down and what you should take away from Saturday's college football games.
From what everybody says, Bill Hancock is a hard guy to dislike. I've never met the guy, nor do I know much about him, but the new BCS executive director's quotes appearing on PlayoffProblem.com present such a weak and shallow argument for keeping the current BCS system that it almost makes you cringe. Of course, he's just doing his job I guess.
"If you think the BCS is controversial, wait until yo... Read Full Story

Question #1: After Hanley Ramirez, would Tulowitzki be the next SS off the board or would you look for someone else. - Jesse, Rio Rancho, NM
Jesse: Dr. Roto thinks you are dead on with Tulo as number 2. While there are some great players at SS (such as Jeter, Rollins, and Bartlett), Tulo has ... Read Full Story

Do you think fat coaches feel it's necessary to be that way in order to properly do their job? Vince Lombardi wasn't fat. Neither was Bill Walsh. Bill Belicheck isn't. A lot of great coaches were / are in shape. What are these guys thinking?
What do you think Maryland's Ralph Friedgen is doing in this picture? I know. He's saying, "When the hell is McDonald's going to bring back the McRib!?!?" Maybe if he concentrated on the game plan in the evenings instead of raiding the refrigerator t... Read Full Story

We often get e-mails asking us to follow up on old news of interest that may have fallen out of the headlines. From time to time during the off-season we will revisit some of the happenings of the 2009 MLB season by revisiting published material that occurred at the time....... With the benefit of hindsight, we'll then take a look and see how the event turned out.....

So the Mets are looking to trade prized prospect Fernando Martinez a.k.a. F-Mart. Sometimes trading your best prospects works, sometimes it doesn't. The way I look at it is, if the guy you are getting is a sure thing and does what you expect, then even if the guy you traded away pans out, you did the right thing. All too often the prospect doesn't turn into a great MLB player, it's not a science and more of a crap-shoot.
Let's take a look at some of the Mets "Can't Miss" prospects over the... Read Full Story

Sometimes luck just doesn't go your way. We netted $82.50 last week but saw $325 go out the window in the final seconds with both Cleveland and Cincinnati blowing the games at the end. ‘A POX' on the state of Ohio!
Never the less Add $82.50 to the pot. The Thanksgiving Day games were covered in a previous post, I hope you got the memo. We netted $80 winning with the Packers and the Cowboys and loosing with the Giants (just awful) and Texas who won but didn't cover.
As I had mentioned, Colt ... Read Full Story

Green Bay is playing at Detroit at 12:30 in the afternoon. Doesn't that just sound riveting?
Wait, it gets better. At 4:15, the Bruce Gradkowski-led Oakland Raiders are playing the Dalls Cowboys in the brand new Jerry Jones stadium. This keeps getting better and better.
To top both of those games off, the Giants get to travel to Mile High Stadium to play the slumping Broncos. And I am sure to some people, that last game doesn't seem that bad. But at the beginning of the season, most people di... Read Full Story
