Good Riddance!!!

It had to happen. Adam Oates and George McPhee had to go away. When you have an owner proclaiming that this year’s Capitals were the deepest team in team history, you would think that they would at least get to the second round again (and if this is a real NHL franchise, that is about […]

What should we make of the Washington Wizards?!?!

Since the Capitals decided to be an absolute disgrace this season, there really wasn’t anything else to do this spring when it came to watching sports with pure joy. You can make a case for watching the Nationals, but they keep losing all the time to the stupid Braves and Cardinals. Also, call me when […]

Who will win the 2014 NHL draft lottery?

If you read my post about last year’s draft lottery, you will remember how stupid I thought having all fourteen non-playoff teams getting a chance at the number one pick is. It was further proof that Commissioner Gary Bettman would stop at nothing to make sure that the NHL resembles the NBA. If we were […]

What are three important NHL questions heading into the summer?

If you think Washington’s front office is terrible, take a look at Carolina’s and Vancouver’s!!!

Why should America care more about rugby?

With the Super Bowl over, another season of football is over. However, some are already missing the shear athleticism and legal violence that football brings. So what are you to do? Sure, the Winter Olympics are fun, but you miss tackling, teamwork and absolute emotion from the fans in a packed stadium of 60,000+ where […]

Why should we always keep the faith?

Last weekend was arguably the dumbest thing I could ever do as a sports fan. I gave up on one of my favorite teams. The initial plan was to travel to my alma mater, Penn State, to see the football team at home against Michigan. There were many factors as to why I changed my […]

Where SHOULD the 2015 Winter Classic take place?
