With the Rangers and the Knicks still alive, the question being posed to fans is: if you had to pick, who would you rather see win a championship this year? So that got me thinking; which of my teams would I most like to see win it all: Mets, Jets or Nets? Since I’ve never experienced the feeling of one of my teams winning a championship (I was 6 years old...
Jay-Z and Roc Nation Sports Get Victor Cruz
Jigga Man is doing BIG things in the sports world this week. First he was able to lure Robinson Cano away from Scott Boras who is one of the most successful agents in the game. Now he can add Victor Cruz to his Roc Nation Sports lineup. For all of you idiots out there saying these are bad moves and comparing them to Master P I say to you this. You’re...
Ravens win 31-20
It’s taken me awhile to come around and accept Joe Flacco for what he is: the AFC version of Eli Manning. The comparisons are too many to ignore: frustratingly inconsistent in the regular season, ridiculously clutch in crunch time, mocked for declaring himself elite, prone to both devastating interceptions and improbable huge plays…This is his...
How to Fix the Pro-Bowl
With the Pro-Bowl a few hours away, the big question is, why even play the game? The players are laughing, half stretching, telling stories about the club they went to last night. The last thing they want to do is strap on the pads and play a meaningless game. Last offseason the league briefly considered ending the pro-bowl tradition, but decided against it....
Hey New England….Have a Great off Season!
You know, they always say that teams take on the personality of their coach. I for one always thought that was bullshit but after seeing how the Patriots react to losing I think I am changing my tune. After their loss yesterday Bill Belichick refused to talk to the media and instead we get safety Devin McCourty. This of course spawned a bunch criticism from...
Is this Notre Dame AD Serious?!
I mean everyone has heard the story so I’m not going to beat you over the head with it but what’s this guys play here? I mean he has to know that his man is a liar. So I guess just to stick by him? To make sure his NFL stock doesn’t completely turn to nothing? I just can’t figure it out one way or the other. Taking a pause to gather...
Manti Te’o Fooled Everyone Into Thinking His Non-Existent Girlfriend Died FOR A YEAR
Manti Te’O made up a fake girlfriend and pretended she got into a tragic car accident THEN died from leukemia, according to Deadspin. Wow. Wow. Wow. This is ridiculous. He and his cohort, Ronaiah Tuiasosopo, were behind this elaborate hoax whereby Ronaiah created a fake Twitter account for not only Manti’s non-existent Stanford...
Neal’s Bold Predictions for 2013
I apologize for getting this list of my bold predictions for the sports world in 2013 onto the site so late. I concocted this Nostradamus-like compendium for the January 2nd show and though one of my predictions has already supremely failed, I stick to my guns – I don’t bail at the first sign of defeat. Just ask anyone who had season tickets to the...
Jets or Giants: Who Had the More Disappointing Season?
For the first time in almost a decade, New York won’t be sending a team to the playoffs, forcing Jets and Giants fans to ponder what went wrong. As we reflect on the 2012 season, and begin to look ahead to what moves each team needs to make over the next few months, the first question that needs to be answered is: Which team had the more disappointing...
20th Anniversary of “The Comeback”
On this day 20 years ago the Buffalo Bills were down 32 points to the Houston Oilers in an AFC wildcard game. Putting up 28 points in the 3rd quarter, 7 points in the 4th quarter and the final 3 points in OT the Bills completed what is still the greatest comeback in NFL history. All with backup QB Frank Reich (Who also by the way held the largest comeback in...
Predictions For The 2013 New York Giants
The 2013 home and away opponents for the Giants were released this week, so I thought I’d offer up some predictions. Keep in mind, that I predicted the G-men (or “Gi-boys” as Mike would say) would go 9-7 this past season. Pretty much nailed it. Still drives me crazy knowing that we had the same record as our Super Bowl season and didn’t...
Pettine Declines Extension: What Does it Mean for the Jets?
Mike Pettine has built a hell of a resume in his 4 seasons as Defensive Coordinator for the Jets. A solid performance this week will put them in the top 5 in the league in every season under his watch. So with the turmoil surrounding the rest of the organization, it’s no wonder he wants to test his value on the open market. But the question is, what do...
(NSFW) Chad Johnson Back in the News!
He couldn’t make it work on the football field this season. He couldn’t make it work in his marriage either. What he CAN make work is his Johnson. Chad claims he didn’t leak this video of him banging strippers while other people in the room watch but come on. This is exactly what someone who is starved for attention would...
New York Giants 2012 Season In a Nutshell
The Giants are all but eliminated from postseason play. They need to beat the Eagles (who gave the Redskins their money’s worth and will have Vick under center on Sunday) and the Vikings, Bears, and Cowboys have to lose next weekend for them to clinch the final Wild Card spot. Even if that miracle happens are there any Big Blue fans out there who are...
Michael Strahan’s Bogus Single Season Sack Record
So Michael Strahan gave his blessing for his single season sack record to be broken? Say Wut?!?! Lets get one thing straight here you gap tooth idiot. Well actually let’s get two things straight here (one of them not being your teeth). One, you didn’t break shit, you fell on top of Brett Favre after he laid down and let you sack him....
Dead Rabbits x2
The Dead Rabbits won the Sunday Slackers Championship for a second year in a row! After a 1-6 start, this guy comes storming back to make the playoffs and win a title. Unreal. I’ve already been catching a lot of heat for having a 8 team payoff bracket. Although its not from Your Mom’s Boyfriend. It’s from the teams that dominated the...
NFL has some set of balls….
Ok so the NFL is sponsored by Nike which i have no prob with. I have purchased my first jersey this year like the material good fit love it would fuck on top of it and feel comfortable. This is not the issue. The issue is that for some reason the NFL is able to fine the athletes that make them all their money on apparel sales for not wearing...

Why the Jets Traded for Tim Tebow
Well, we were all right; the Tebow trade was an absolute failure. There’s no point in talking about why it failed so the real discussion should be around why the deal was made in the first place. The initial consensus was that the Jets traded for Tebow to sell tickets; or more importantly to sell PSLs. Well as the faithful TSG listeners know, I called...
WoW….That Hurt My Eyes
First off thanks to the NFL for putting that Jets/Titans game in prime time last night! I would have rather ripped my eyeballs out than watch that trash. The only reason I even turned it on was to keep track of the teams left in my fantasy league. The fact that the NFL does not change the schedule for Monday night games is the dumbest thing I’ve...
