NBA and Upcoming Super Bowl

January 30th

Super bowl

I am amped for this yrs Super Bowl between the New England Patriots and the NY Giants. I am no fan of either team but if I had money to wage I would place bets on the Giants to upset the Patriots again like they did in 2007. The Giants have great defensive compared to the Patriots. With the emergence of Jason Pierre-Paul the Patriots will have a tough time defending Brady with the Giants defensive line. The offensive end of the field can match up quite evenly. Mannings targets of 2 1,000 yrd receivers Hakeem Nicks, and the ever entertaining Victor Cruz makes the secondary of the Patriots worried. The 3rd receiver Mario Manningham is also making a name for himself this post season as well. The Giants offensive line is also highly touted despite the fatigued portrayed in the NFC championship against SF 49ers. I have them winning 35-24 exploiting the Patriots league worse pass defense.

Peyton Manning Saga
Honestly Im tired of Jim Irsay and Peyton Manning saga. Trade Manning to the Browns for draft picks and start all over.

NBA News

New York Knicks dismal season

The New York Knicks had high expectations entering the 2011-2012 season with the acquisition of Tyson Chandler to fill in the defensive void. That has not filled in with Spike Lee and other Knick fans watching their 7-13 team lose 9 of their last 10 games. Carmelo Anthony is playing sub-par and Amar'e Stoudemire is playing like Jerome James of late averaging less than 15 points in the past 8 games. Chandler's presence is not helping the Knicks matters on both the defensive end and under the basket. I still have the Knicks making it in the playoffs as an 7th seed. But if things don't turn around quickly you can see Mike D'Antoni out the door and the echoes of Phil Jackson starting to mount up


 The Dwight Howard Saga

The disgruntled Magic Center is really starting to irk me. It's like one week you wanna leave and go to LAL, LAC, Dallas, or New Jersey and next you wanna stay. After Friday's embarrassing loss to the leagues worst New Orleans Hornets Dwight let his team have it. There is no room for Howard to talk. If you are the team's leader and you are constantly in the media about leaving that will affect the team's play in the court and in the locker room. Howard needs to grow up and continue his 20-20 nights. Orlando is playoff bound, but there are not gonna be title contenders anytime soon unless Otis Smith makes a big move. I don't see Dwight going anywhere just tough it out in Orlando shut up and play.

The Minnesota Timberwolves

I love this team after years of being crappy and non-existent I have a want to watch these guys play more. I like Ricky Rubio he is nice. A flashy passer and a good big man in Kevin Love they will be an exciting team to watch for years to come.

Gilbert Arenas to LAL?

That's the rumor. LAL is in disparity to sign a PG. Darius Morris and Andrew Gouldececk are rookies and Derek Fisher is experiencing father time. Arenas who is 30 has some controversy in his resume. After numerous knee-injuries and a locker room gun incident Gilbert is ready to put his past behind him. He averaged a little over 8 points last season with Orlando but what can he bring to LA?
I think he can perform above average drop 11 pts a game you won't get the Gilbert Arenas from 2004-2008 but he can be a good piece in the Lakers aging line-up providing a lil scoring punch to Kobe, Pau, and Bynum. we'll see how this plays out

Washington Bullets.................. I mean Wizards

The Washington Wizards are so terrible Charles Barkley said he wants to shoots them LOL. Where's Tom Gugliotta when you need him? The Wizards are 4-16 and recently fired the HC Flip Saunders late last week. I like Wizards they have the talent to atleast make a little buzz in the east but goooooooosh they are terrible.




MLB

The Athletics have interest in Manny Ramirez. Nobody cares.

I am hoping the Tigers sign either Edwin Jackson, or Roy Oswalt.

More MLB wild card teams I can dig it.

Yoenis Cespedes close to signing with the Marlins? That's the rumor. The recently Cuban defector is sought after by many MLB teams but Miami is top of his list. Miami Marlins will be stacked if they acquire him after a busy off-season. P.S. talk Javier Vazquez into playing another season

Suprise teams for 2012........ I had faith in Pittsburgh until July smh c'mon Pirates, Honestly I would say Miami Marlins the new look team in the NL East have some stiff competition with Atlanta, Philadelphia and the yeah I said it Washington National's. I think they will be up there but will miss the playoffs give them 2 yrs tops. In the American League I would like to say the Toronto Blue Jays they always finish .500 but are in a really tough division with Boston and NYY. I don't expect them to be a playoff team but they can make a buzz. Bolster the starting rotation and they could be in the discussion within the next 3 yrs.

Yu Darvish? I never heard of this guy, but they say he's the real deal. Texas threw 60 million landing him so hopefully he'll be the next Randy Johnson, or Hideo Nomo. I think he'll be decent another Dasuike Matsuzaka LOL.

NHL

I definitely am not feeling the NHL all-star set-up -__-


Golf

Since Tiger Woods won his last unofficial PGA tourney we all jumped on the bandwagon again. He held his own but unfortunately the same Tiger since 2010 had to fumble under pressure..... BUMMER. Long live the Abu Dhabi





Tennis

Today's Rafi Nadal and Novak Djokovic was a classic match up. I always pick Novak to come up victorious great match very long but quite entertaining,
