From ESPN.com No matter how you felt about former Pittsburgh Steelers receiver Hines Ward, who announced his retirement today, chances are you had some kind of opinion about him. Whether you viewed him as a success story because of his mediocre speed and stature, or if you hated him because you were a Baltimore Ravens’ … Read more

by Justin Cherot I was dumb enough to think that I was the first person to think of Week 1′s clever headline, but apparently I’m not. Thanks a bunch, Bleacher Report! Any how, I decided to be like the Oakland Raiders’ secondary (no words…) and take the week off from making picks on the site, although if … Read more

by Justin Cherot It’s no secret that basketball is my first love. I mean, it’s not like you stumbled upon the “Cover 1 Robber” blog, right? Colin and I are equal opportunity sports’ enthusiasts… okay, at least Colin is. But, I’m a realist: football is America’s favorite sport (attention anyone who just asked about baseball: you … Read more

By Justin Cherot I’ve tried this a couple of times on the old BETA Live From the Nosebleeds site, but essentially the gimmick with “The Notebook” is this: a smattering of thoughts that pop into my size seven head (by New Era standards), none of which are either big enough for an entire post or … Read more

by Colin Donohue Here are some quick hitters from the sports world today. I’d say, “Here’s what I’m burnin’ on,” but that would implicitly endorse Jim Rome as some kind of consequential sports analyst. The dude is a joke and, at this point, a parody of himself. What a clown. So I ain’t burnin’ on … Read more

By Justin Cherot We’re an hour and a half away from the dawn of a new NFL season. Colin is chomping at the bit for the start of the NHL season, and I can’t wait for basketball to tip-off, but until then, the NFL is here to satisfy our palette. Anyway, before I get into … Read more

by Colin Donohue I’m back after almost two weeks. I figured that I could never do better than a post about the awkward hilarity of former NBA bona fide superstar Gheorghe Muresan. (C’mon.

by Colin Donohue The NFL season is just a couple of months away, which means training camps are approaching quickly. Most teams begin in less than a week. And because everything centered on the NFL is a huge event, it’s no surprise that the league’s lead-up to meaningless preseason games–training camp–gets oodles of attention from … Read more
