Over the years there have been all sorts of quotes that have made us laugh, become angry, or become inspired. Athletes have always been some of the most controversial people in all of the media, and the media never lets a quote go unrecorded. So I have put together some of my favorite quotes from athletes from all sports, all over the world. Take a look…

Series Won by the "Right" Sox
Like the blink of an eye, the ALDS series between the two American League Sox was over. At the end of it all, it seemed like Boston did not know what hit them. They were supposed to score the runs, come from behind, and have all the fun. They were the most recent “October kids”, fresh off a historic postseason in which they broke almost all the unwritten rules. They were supposed to face the Yankees in the next round.
Except Chicago did not really agree.
I am guilty. Like most sports fans, I play and enjoy fantasy sports. But much like music videos killed the radio star are fantasy sports killing the sports fan?
MLB Power Rankings 3 October 2005
An entire MLB season has come and passed, and here are the final power rankings going into the playoffs. As always, comments and criticisms are appreciated.
Roids- Roids- and more Roids
I know what you’re thinking, how many times can we banter back and forth about steroids before we realize it goes in continuous circles? Steroids have become an STD to the sports world, fast spreading with no solution. So far, the MLB has taken the biggest blow (Did the 500 foot homeruns or the constant record-breaking seasons tip someone off?). Canseco is writing a book while simultaneously going insane before our very eyes. Raffy P. (his rapper name derived from P Diddy of course) is wondering if he still has a shot at a full time career doing Viagra commercials. Bonds (gotta love this guy) conveniently misses the 2005 season due to a sudden physical breakdown, just as the ‘roids controversy reaches its zenith. To top it all off, every record that has been broken, or shattered, in recent years is now in question.
NFL Commissioner Paul Tagliabue recently made some negative comments regarding the possibility of moving the New Orleans Saints franchise to San Antonio, Texas on a permanent basis. Was he correct or misinformed?
Here are the latest MLB power rankings, as always comments are welcome. Tune in to the MLB this weekend if you can. The schedule makers have managed to set up one of the most compelling final weekends in recent memory.
Here is the latest addition of the MLB power rankings, comments and criticisms are always welcome.
The Ten Best Rivalries in Sports
by Trevor Freeman
Inspired by seven beers and a raucous Dallas Cowboys-Washington Redskins tilt on Monday night, I decided to have some fun and list the ten best rivalries in sports. After crunching the keyboard and getting some sage advice from fellow sports fans, I arrived at this list. Enjoy………
With the return of Barry Bonds to a hopeless lineup, and the comeback of Lance Armstrong to a competition-less race, we as fans are desperate for answers. We are trained to believe that legends will ride off into the glorious sunset, and that there is no greater stage than the ones in our memory, on SportsCentury, or in the catalogues of the written recollection. But this isn’t anything like that. Bonds and Armstrong, two unrivaled dominators of their respective sports, are back in their games primarily to restore their credibility and move past an ambiguous past.
