If anyone wants an edit or just for me to take a look at their recent article, just post it on my wall, I'd be happy to take a look.

I got this idea from a Ravens' fan on here. He posted a video of the best of Ray Lewis 2008. Considering Brian Dawkins will never wear a Eagle uniform again, this is my favorite video of all time: http://www.nfl.com/videos/nfl-game-highlights/09000d5d80e4dfd0/2008-Best-of-Brian-Dawkins

Geoff, why are you so hard on Brad Lidge? He's a nice guy. Can't you cut him some slack, Geoff?

No.

Yankee fans rooting for the Red Sox? Has hell frozen over, or is there a rational thought process at the root of it all. Read why it is ok for you to root for Boston on select occasions without feeling like Benedict Arnold.

Thanks in Advance! I would love to hear your feedback.

I wanted to pay my tributes to Jim Johnson by showing everyone how he did everything he could to not let his battle with cancer keep him away from football, the game he loved. If you have time, I'd really appreciate the read. Thanks.

There has always been a connection between religion and sports, and Major League Baseball has certainly not been the exception to the rule.

Check out the All-Catholic lineup…the best Catholic names (by position) in MLB history.

Thanks as always!

A-Rod’s 2009 salary is $33 million. What is the best team (9 hitter lineup with DH, 5 SPs, 1 RP, and a CL) you could create using only his salary as a budget, and no more than 5 players allowed to be making less than $1 million? You would be surprised…

Pedro Martinez's activity during All-Star week has not been the type I would have once predicted. What about you?

Hey,

The turmoil surrounding the 1977 Yankees earned them the nickname of “The Bronx Zoo.” The current 2009 Yankees have an interesting blend of leaders and pranksters, so I decided to create a LITERAL “zoo.”

Check out what animal each Yankee would be reincarnated as in a next life.

Thanks everyone!
