E's Bio

Check out my column, the more the better (the more hits/comments/etc I get, the more I'll get paid). www.fanhuddle.com/aleast

For those of you who don't think Derek Jeter is overrated, here's some food for thought:

For what the Yankees paid Jeter in 2009, they could afford to field a lineup of Brian McCann, Adrian Gonzalez, Dustin Pedroia, Troy Tulowitzki, Evan Longoria, Carl Crawford, Jacoby Ellsbury, and Adam Jones, with money left over. Or, they could stay the course and shell out $20 mill on a shortstop who isn't even the best at his position anymore...

I am a scumbag Patriots fan,
an ignorant Red Sox fan,
and a #&*$ Celtics fan.
Get at me.

Oh, and go Hurricanes!

Two best moments in sports (in pictures!):

It's time to prepare the throne, the King has arrived in New York! Lebron James made his only appearance of the season at Madison Square Garden against the Knicks tonight. Take a look.

Eric Mangini has been an utter failure in Cleveland.. A big part of that has been trying to be like his former mentor, Bill Belicheck.. Heres a message to Eric: He Will Never Be On Belichick's Level. Appreciate any feedback you can give on this piece.

Everyone has dreams of playing a professional sport. Sirr Parker did in football. But it was impossible for him to do that from where he grew up. But he made it, and he's truly remarkable. It's a story I'd love to share with you:
