Charles,

You already may know that many great athletes have gone from Minnesota to Boston at one point in their careers and either emerged as superstars or brought their stardom to the next level. Check out some of the best athletes who started their careers in Minnesota to only end up suiting up for Boston in the end.

Charles,

This morning, the MLB community was shell shocked with the news that 22-year old Angels rookie Nick Adenhart was killed in a car accident. Read all about it right here

Hey Charles,
I have enjoyed reading your articles even though I don't always agree and was wondering if you would be interested in being a writer for my new website "The Kansas City Sports Experience", it is strictly for KC sports teams (Chiefs, Royals, Jayhawks, Wildcats, and Tigers).
You won't have to do much except for posting notes on my profile when you write a new article. I would love for you to join!

Thanks,
Jordan

Charles, we can finally stop talking about who was wrong and now focus on how the Broncos will do without Jay Cutler, and of course how the Chicago Bears will do with him. Here's my thoughts- http://bleacherreport.com/articles/149724-what-impact-does-the-jay-cutler-trade-make-for-chicago-and-denver-in-2009

Let me know what you think if you have the time, if not no worries.

Charles, I've always contended that I can never dislike a player so much that I couldn't support him if he could contributed for my team. With the news that Pat Bowlen is now finally looking to trade Jay Cutler, I can't help but look at my Dallas Cowboys as a possible suitor. And that now has me questioning my original beliefs, if I at some point just couldn't accept a player due to disdain. What do you think about this?

Let me know what you think if you get the chance, if not no worries.

Charles, every time I hear about how Jay Cutler was betrayed and had his feelings hurt it makes my blood boil. I can't keep hush any longer!

My first attempt at a humor article. It convincingly tells why Tom Brady is one of the worst quarterbacks in the NFL. Check it out and tell me what you think.

Hey Charles, I know what they say about parody in the NFL but I look at five teams and I don't see how any of them can hope to compete.

Sir Charles, could you explain to me why Jeff Garcia gets no respect because I just don't get it. I feel like I'm taking crazy pills!

Sir Charles,

How do you feel the Bills and Cowboys will do after what happened this week with Terrell Owens? Here are my thoughts-
