Here are four things to think about today….
1) Would you like to see LeBron play for the Dallas Mavericks? I would definitely like to see that. Mark Cuban is determined to win an NBA championship – it is debatable whether adding LeBron would be the final piece to the puzzle, though. It would be great [...]

Did you see Brendan Ryan’s sigh of relief last night after Ryan Ludwick saved the day with his home run? When will Matt Holliday start earning his contract?

Reporters and “insiders” frequently in this day of sensationalistic journalism get caught in the trap of accidentally or deliberately overdramatizing certain sports events. Game 6 with the Cavaliers playing in Boston could fall into that trap. Has LeBron been remarkably inconsistent during this series? Yes!! Will this series have a big effect on his legacy? [...]

Timing is everything in the great sport of baseball and knowing when to keep or trade away a player can mean setting up your franchise to succeed for many years or creating personnel gridlock depending upon your team’s moves.

I have scheduled my whole weekend watching the Cardinals game this Saturday night against the Pittsburgh Pirates. Now, two things here. How often is a game involving the Pittsburgh Pirates worth revolving your weekend around? Second, how many times does the fifth starter going into the season become the most exciting guy to watch on the mound. It [...]
