This is a new one for me. It's not an NFL article. It's not an MLB article. It's not even a Top 10 list.

This is about one of the most incredible athletes I have ever heard about. I bought his autobiography a week ago and read the entire thing in one sitting. Check this out if you get a chance.

With the Phillies' quest to defend their world championship starting tomorrow night, I was inspired to compose the ultimate top 20 list--my 20 greatest moments as a Philadelphia sports fan.

A week ago, I wrote an article about the greatest quarterback seasons in NFL history. Now I'm on to the second part of my NFL top 10 lists: the running backs.

Let's admit it--the position of quarterback is maybe the most fascinating position in all of sports. It's definitely the most carefully analyzed position. Here is a list of the best of the best...of the best--the 10 greatest seasons by a quarterback in the history of the NFL.

In 2004, the Philadelphia Eagles acquired wide receiver Terrell Owens. They went to the Super Bowl. Then things fell apart and T.O. ended up on the Cowboys. With the release of Owens by the Dallas Cowboys, I couldn't help but wonder: Should the Philadelphia Eagles resign T.O.?

This may be good bye. I've saved this to my disk if it is deleted. I have no idea how you'll contact me, but...:)

Unfortunately, February 28, 2009 is a day I won't be forgetting for a long time. Hopefully, you never have to experience the pain of your all-time favorite athlete leaving your team...and if you have experienced it, I hope you never have to go through it again.

After what was easily the most exciting NFL season I have ever seen, almost every single NFL team has learned something new about its quarterback, whether it be finally finding their franchise quarterback, losing their starter to injury, or watching the starter lose his job. Here is the ultimate rankings--the 32 best active quarterbacks in the National Football League.
