The Couch Potato Report: Supersized Edition

By ⋅ August 27, 2010 ⋅ Post a comment

Nobody likes a whiner. So I won’t start off this week’s “Couch Potato Report” whining about why there wasn’t a “C.P.R.” last week. I won’t tell you that my awkwardly big feet kicked the switch of my surge protector underneath my computer, powering down my PC and leaving my unsaved, nearly completed article left as [...]

SoB MLB Power Rankings 8-16-10

By ⋅ August 16, 2010 ⋅ Post a comment

The races are starting to open up. Minnesota is 3.0 games ahead of their competition, and the Cardinals and Reds are a vast, vast 1.0 games apart. The NL Wildcard is now in a tie, while it’s still easily the Rays and Yankees in the American counterpart. San Diego did well against San Fran to [...]

NFL Playoff Picture: Divisional Round

By ⋅ January 16, 2010 ⋅ 2 comments

Well, the Patriots might be out of the running for a Super Bowl appearance, but there are still eight other teams going strong. Four teams in each conference will be matched up this weekend to see if they have what it takes to get to their championship game. Expect everything, including the kitchen sink, being [...]

NFL Power Rankings: Make Your Super Bowl Pick

By ⋅ January 9, 2010 ⋅ Post a comment

All the hard work from the regular season has come down to this: the playoffs. Four teams will get a rest, while eight others will play do-or-die games in the Wild Card weekend. Right now, Sports of Boston’s top football minds have ranked the remaining 12 teams and who they will see in the Super [...]

If the Playoffs Started Today – NFL Week 16

By ⋅ December 31, 2009 ⋅ Post a comment

With just one week left before the playoffs are set, this is the final installment of the NFL’s weekly playoff hypotheticals. Plenty of surprises have taken place this past week (New Orleans and Indy BOTH lose on home turf?) and many are yet to take place (seven, count ‘em, seven) teams are still alive for [...]

If the Playoffs Started Today – NFL Week 15

By ⋅ December 22, 2009 ⋅ Post a comment

The pieces are starting to fall into place. Five of the eight divisions have been officially clinched. Once powerful contenders (Giants, Broncos, Steelers) and teams that once had high expectations (Titans, Falcons, Panthers) are faltering, while newcomers (Saints, Bengals) are making headlines. In the NFC, only the Giants are on the outside looking in, while [...]

If the Playoffs Started Today – NFL Week 14

By ⋅ December 15, 2009 ⋅ Post a comment

Just three weeks left until the playoffs are set. Speaking of three, only three teams have guaranteed themselves a playoff spot. In the AFC alone, four teams are tied for the last wild card spot, and three teams are one game behind them. The Colts have already clinched home field advantage, and while the Saints [...]

If the Playoffs Started Today – NFL Week 13

By ⋅ December 8, 2009 ⋅ Post a comment

75% of the season is now over, but the playoff situation is still very much up in the air, with only the two unbeaten teams having secured spots so far. The Bengals dropped a spot, and the Pats showed why they’ll have a hard time advancing. We’re really seeing teams fight hard and fast for [...]

If the Playoffs Started Today – NFL Week 12

By ⋅ December 1, 2009 ⋅ One comment

Two unbeaten teams remain, looking to be on a collision course for the Super Bowl. And the Colts have become the first team to guarantee themselves a playoff spot. As always, the wildcard spots are still very much up for grabs and are the most interesting race; six teams in the AFC alone are not [...]

Patriots Look to Force Themselves Into Playoffs

By ⋅ November 25, 2009 ⋅ Post a comment

With just six games left until the postseason, it’s game time for the AFC. With the Colts taking an iron grip on home field advantage, the race is on for the second spot, currently held by the Bengals. However, the Chargers and Pats are tied with Cincinnati, and still very much alive for the position. [...]

If the Playoffs Started Today – NFL Week 11

By ⋅ November 24, 2009 ⋅ One comment

We’re getting close to January, and there is still much to be decided. Mathematically, every team is still in the race (even the Browns and Buccaneers, but we can forget about them). Several 6-4 teams are tied with each other for wild card slots. Two 10-0 teams remain, though only one of them is in [...]

If the Playoffs Started Today – NFL Week 10

By ⋅ November 17, 2009 ⋅ 2 comments

More than half way through, the playoff situation is starting to take shape. The Colts are in reasonable command in the East (ick) over Cincinnati. The Vikings and Saints are still dueling for first in the West. The Wild Card races are the most interesting by far. At 5-4 after starting 5-0, not playing this [...]

If the Playoffs Started Today – NFL Week 9

By ⋅ November 10, 2009 ⋅ 2 comments

What a week. The Giants continued their fall from grace. Tennessee is trying to mount what would have to be considered one of the largest NFL comebacks ever from 0-6. New Orleans came back again against a team they probably should never have been trailing by a lot. Even Tampa Bay got in on the [...]

High Five/Low Five: Week 8

By ⋅ October 31, 2009 ⋅ One comment

Happy Halloween, fantasy football fans! So I have always considered Halloween as the unofficial halfway point of the fantasy football season. By now, you know if your team is a contender or pretender. You know if your roster is haunted or not. You know if they have had a spell cast against them. You know [...]

Chargers Dominate Patriots 30-10

By ⋅ October 13, 2008 ⋅ 2 comments

It’s been rare in the Bill Belichick era that Patriots fans can turn off a game at halftime knowing their team isn’t coming back. It’s now happened twice in 2008 as the Chargers jumped out to a two touchdown lead at halftime and never looked back, beating the Patriots 30-10. The Pats were dominated in [...]
