New York Giants Preview

Dan Flaherty — Sat, 01 Sep 2012 01:41:39 +0000

TweetWhen it comes to respect, the New York Giants as a team don’t get it very easily, while their quarterback seems to get it without any difficulty whatsoever. While Eli Manning is extolled as an elite quarterback without ever having an MVP-caliber season, the Giants can win two Super Bowls in five years and still [...]

TweetSince John Harbaugh took the reins of the Baltimore Ravens four years ago, his teams have won 43 regular season games and picked up five playoff wins.

Dan Flaherty — Fri, 31 Aug 2012 16:41:29 +0000

TweetI’m going to guess that when baseball fans in Baltimore made their Labor Day weekend plans the notion they were going to have a big series in the Bronx probably didn’t want to cross everyone’s minds. But that’s exactly what’s ahead starting tonight as the Orioles meet the Yankees in a three-game set that marks [...]

Dan Flaherty — Thu, 30 Aug 2012 15:46:59 +0000

TweetCollege football kicks off tonight and with it the game-week previews here at TheSportsNotebook do as well. South Carolina and Vanderbilt don’t get anything in the way of adjustment time.

NFL Team Previews: St. Louis Rams

Dan Flaherty — Thu, 30 Aug 2012 01:41:57 +0000

TweetThere aren’t too many organizations in professional sports more inept than what the St. Louis Rams have been in recent years. Not only was their last winning season in 2003 and their last .500 season in 2006, but in four of the last five years they’ve won three games or less. I compare it to [...]

Seattle Seahawks Preview

TweetThe Seattle Seahawks haven’t had a winning season since 2007, even if they did claim the cheapest division title in NFL history, at 7-9 back in the 2010 season. But if the ’10 team was overrated because of its first place finish and upset playoff win over New Orleans, the ’11 team’s 7-9 finish is [...]
