Holy Grail, Stanley Cup, Same Difference
So Graham, Casey, and I were talking the other day and the subject of Mike Ricci came up. Since we're all juvenile, the conversation immediately veered to how ugly a man he is; it went a little something like this: I met him at a roller-blading thing in Toronto a long time ago - he was a super...
Michigan Basketball and the Big Ten Tournament: I'm Not Dead! I Feel Happy!
You can try to explain Michigan's inexplicably close win over Iowa, or you can accept that it was just standard operating procedure for this particular team. Now we move on. Michigan faces first seeded Ohio State in today's 11 CST tip off. Basically it comes down to stopping Evan Turner,...
Season Review: B-Ry Hits His Money Year
Yeah, I'm mixing Monty Python metaphors here. But I do like the hinged jaw. While I did start by profiling Ryan Getzlaf and Corey Perry for this "Season Review" series -- they are indeed Anaheim's established first-line stars -- let's not forget that when asked to pick last season, I instead...
BoC Pre-Gameday: Todd McLellan & The Holy Grail

So. . .What Good Can Come Of This For the Vikings?
I don't want to seem like a negative Nancy here or anything, but of all the crappy things that have happened to the Vikings this season. . .losing E.J. Henderson, losing Madieu Williams, losing Heath Farwell. . .keeping Brad Childress. . .the potential loss of the Williams Wall in the middle of...
Chiefs Clearly Trying To Give Game To Falcons
Kansas City Chiefs head coach Herm Edwards doesn't want to win this weekend. There's no other explanation for the news coming out of KC, where Edwards is starting incredibly unproven QB Tyler Thigpen over the injured but now apparently healthy Damon Huard, who you will recognize as the...
