Good morning Birdland, Those two back-to-back wins the Orioles had on Sunday and Monday were cool, huh? But yesterday felt like a slap back to reality. The 6-2 loss to the Yankees is easy enough to swallow. Losses happen in baseball. But the fact that Trevor Rogers got hit around does not instill much confidence […]
With a half-dozen consecutive losses in their back pocket and the Colorado Avalanche coming to town, you could forgive Bruins fans for having low expectations for this afternoon’s game. Instead, the Bruins got a stellar performance from Jeremy Swayman, a better team-wide effort, and a bit of luck to go their way in what ended […]
The particulars are not important; how could they be at this point? You’ve seen, you’ve heard, you know. NC State’s defense was so bad on Saturday that it’s hard to actually see that secondary and the Pittsburgh offense play at the same level. Losing is the worst, but being embarrassed in the process is doubly […]
The buzz around Barclays Center before tipoff wasn’t about a win or a loss, it was about the future. A sellout crowd of 17,548 fans packed into Barclays Center on Friday night as the Brooklyn Nets hosted their first home game of the season, and even before tip-off, the vibe was all about optimism. “I’m […]
The nine runs scored in the sixth inning were one short of the World Series record, so the Jays have some work to do today. Joe Carter throws the opening pitch. Tough to do better than that. No Bo in the lineup tonight, I was sure this was how they would do things. I’m good […]
Baseball, more than most sports, is a team game. In football, the best quarterbacks can (and often do) win games even when the rest of their team lets them down. In basketball, one shooter can account for half of his team’s score all by himself in a winning effort. But, at least in its modern […]

This team, ostensibly the fourth-best in all of college football and a national title contender, absolutely refuses to make things easy on themselves, particularly when the task is objectively an easier one. Alabama went to Columbia to play the least talented team it has faced since Wisconsin, in its easiest task of the last two […]

SEATTLE, Wash. — Whenever there is rain and heavy winds forecasted for a football game, many fans assume the game will be a defensive slugfest. Washington did not get that memo in their dismantling of the Fighting Illini. The Washington Huskies offense had their way with the Illini defense, scoring touchdowns on six of eight […]
SEATTLE, WASHINGTON — There was always a potential for turbulence on Saturday afternoon, with slippery conditions looming at a consistently hostile Husky Stadium on top of a West Coast cross-country trip.

I implore you to look up the definition of insanity, but we march on slowly, mercilessly. Grayson James will lead the way again for a still-hobbled Eagles team.
