Is all hope lost to salvage this season?Honestly, it is really starting to look like the season is lost unless they decide to switch quarterbacks in my opinion. JEFF GARCIA COMEBAAAAAACKK!The Raiders running game isn't all that bad. Yes, they don't have a great runner like Adrian Peterson, Frank Gore or even Ahmad Bradshaw, but the combination of Michael Bush and Darren McFadden will get it done when the second year back comes back healthy in a few weeks.In the meantime though they need to ge...

Last year's NBA2K9 was arguably one the best NBA video games in a long time! It hard to best games previous due to the fact that a new one comes out every single year, but the 2K franchise has been making excellent NBA games going all the way back to 2000 when it revolutionized the sports gaming industry with NBA 2K.I still remember playing NBA 2K all those years ago on my Sega Dreamcast of all things and absolutely loving it, so much so that my thumbs and eyes were killing me after playing f...

There are bitter rivals in the NFL, the Baltimore Ravens and the Pittsburgh Steelers don't like each other, the Patriots and Colts always have epic battles, but few of these rivalries are as heated as the Oakland Raiders and the San Diego Chargers when the two AFC West rivals go head to head.These two teams don't just dislike each other, they hate each other with an undying passion!It isn't a personal thing like the way Phillip Rivers and Jay Cutler openly hate each other, but these two teams...

Where did this move come from? Good news for the Raiders, but why would the Patriots do something this drastic, this close to week one?Obviously the Oakland Raiders have been in somewhat of a desperation mode for quite some time now as they try to get back to dominant status in the AFC, but why the New England Patriots would want to get rid of a five time Pro Bowler like Richard Seymour is beyond me.The Raiders will definitely get an upgrade at their defensive line with the addition of Richar...

It is no secret that the Oakland Raiders are one of the most troubled NFL franchises in the league if not the most troubled franchise. One of the main reasons for the Raiders troubles has been the combination wacky NFL owner in Al Davis and bad decisions with team personnel.Over the past couple of seasons the Raiders have had nothing, but bad publicity. One bad move after another like getting rid of arguably the best wide receiver in the NFL in Randy Moss, firing head coach Lane Kiffin in a v... Read Full Story

The Los Angeles Lakers finally got there man despite rumors of Lamar Odom signing with his former team the Miami Heat.It looks like Dwyane Wade visiting Lamar Odom in LA wasn't enough to convince to make the move back to Miami, but the Lakers were pretty damn close to losing their forward.It took some time, but the Lakers were finally able to convince Lamar Odom to resign with them for $33 million dollars over the next four years with an option for the fourth and final year of the contract.Le...

First the Los Angeles Lakers lost Trevor Ariza to free agency as he decided to sign with the Houston Rockets, but the Lakers made a great move in snatching Ron Artest away from the Rockets even though some fans seem to have preferred to have Ariza back instead.Personally, I like Ariza, but Artest brings a much needed toughness to the Lakers which has eluded the Lakers since the Shaq/Kobe dynasty was broken up. So in the end the Lakers have improved despite losing their best young defender by ... Read Full Story

It is no secret that quarterback JaMarcus Russell has hit a few bumps in the road as he tries to become a prime time QB in the NFL, but after just two seasons are the Oakland Raiders justified to pull the rug from under the young quarterback's feet and hand the starting job over to veteran quarterback Jeff Garcia?In my opinion, no, it isn't justified and the kid deserves one more shot before he gets dropped to the backup role. Obviously when the Raiders pick Russell number one in the draft a ... Read Full Story

It looks like the Los Angeles Lakers are making all the right decisions this offseason. They may have missed out on the Trevor Ariza sweepstakes, but adding Ron Artest and keeping guard Shannon Brown it without a doubt a step in the right direction.Now Shannon Brown isn't a huge piece to the puzzle in LA, but he can definitely be key next season as he continues to develop and become more familiar with the Lakers triangle offense.The terms of Brown's new deal with the Lakers will have the youn...

It has been a huge week for the Los Angeles Lakers as they have made one major change and tied up some loose ends by making sure Kobe Bryant and Phil Jackson were going to stay.The two biggest questions this offseason for the Los Angeles Lakers, besides Phil and Kobe, was were they going to sign both Trevor Ariza and Lamar Odom. Well, we know now that Ariza is out of the picture after signing with the Houston Rockets, but Odom's future with the Lakers is still up in the air.Personally, I thin... Read Full Story
