What was that about the Red Wings…?

After walking into Chicago for game one, the Detroit Red Wings were humiliated on the ice with many analysts saying that this could very well be a sweep and that Detroit just did not have the attack mentality that the Blackhawks had to win this series. In game one Chicago beat the Red Wings 4 to 1 with a very balanced attack and simple passing that allowed them to move around the unset defense and taking advantage of the mismatches and fast break opportunities. Detroit came out after the game saying that they just didn’t feel that they played with heart, for some reason they were just off that night but that they will show everyone what Detroit Hockey looks like, and boy did they ever… Read the rest of this entry »

And that was the main event…

It seemed like Luke Rockhold had been doing a little trash talking leading up to the weight-ins and the fight itself and as both fighter posed for their pre-fight media picture, a showing competition broke out which was quickly separated by UFC president Dana White. Vitor Belfot was fighting out of his home country of Brazil and all the fan support coming into this fight and boy did he make them happy! The fight lasted a total of 155 seconds as the current champion really controlled the fight from the opening bell, throwing everything he had in his arsenal in the opening stand up game.

The Heat will not have it easy

This is the series that I have wanted to see all postseason long as I personally think that the way the Pacers rebound the ball and play as a collective unit is superior to that of the Heat. I will give the Heat the transition aspect of this series but transition only goes so far against a team that plays defense as well as Indiana. The Pacers are coming off shutting down the best three point shooting team in the League, so Ray Allen will not outscore them. LeBron James is one man and even James has been eerie of driving to the basket with the 7 foot Roy Hibbert there defending the rim. Read the rest of this entry »

Colorado needs a big push for this one…

Arizona Diamondbacks vs. Colorado Rockies
3:10 PM ET, May 23, 2013
Coors Field, Denver, Colorado

This game has the ability to really make or break this Rockies team for the season. They started off really slow, losing games they really should have won off dumb errors but now having won the first game, they need to win this one to take the series, a momentum builder like they have not had all season long. Arizona was one of the top teams a few weeks ago but they have found themselves just barely getting by with a few sporadic wins but more consistent loosing. It really seems they have lost their infield ability to make a play happen; they have not had a double play in 6 games, going 0-8 in that area during that 6 game stretch.

Phillies need to get back on track

Philadelphia Phillies vs. Miami Marlins

7:10 PM ET, May 20, 2013

Marlins Park, Miami, FL 

Coverage:  FOX FLORIDA

The Phillies have had issues in their ball club for a few seasons now and it seems that no matter what they do during the off season, the problems are there to greet them as they start a new season.  Miami has problems of their own that can be summed up in an idiotic owner, who has proven to have no idea what he is doing.  Both of these teams are in a hole but the Marlins are in it deeper and with only 5 home wins and the seasons tickets are almost free… Anyone want to go see a Marlins game…? (Crickets sounding). Read the rest of this entry »

Pacquiao set to return to the Ring

Manny Pacquiao vs. Brandon Rios

November 11, 2013 11:00pm EST

The Venetian Macao, Macau, China

Broadcast: PPV

It’s been almost a year since his epic knockout was heard around the world, at the hands of Juan Manuel Marquez, which resulted in the first back to back losses of Pacquiao career.  This fight is to show that the Champ is not finished, that he actually has a lot of fight left in him and they have selected a great opponent to show exactly what Manny is capable of accomplishing.  Brandon will make the long trip to China as Manny really wants to get the Boxing scene hyped up in Asia.

Memphis is back in San Antonio

Memphis Grizzlies vs. San Antonio Spurs

3:30 PM ET, May 19, 2013

AT&T Center, San Antonio, TX

Coverage: ABC

These two teams met up four times this regular season, they split the series taking two games apiece, all four games were close and two were in overtime.  These two teams know each other well and there is still a little bad blood after the Grizzlies swept them in the 2011 playoffs’ first round.  The thing to keep in mind is how rested the Grizzlies are going to be and how tired are the much older Spurs going to be when they both meet up on Sunday.  I expect the Grizzlies to come out and make a statement in San Antonio with a game one win.
