So Kobe goes off in the All-Star Game and all the NBA “experts” say the dominant Kobe is back and he is sending a message to the rest of the NBA? I don’t hanging 37 points in a glorified pick-up game that features really crappy defense means “you’re back”.

Andy Reid has finally gone bonkers. First he fires defensive coordinator Sean McDermott (who is now a Carolina Panther by the way :-D) who lead the Eagles D to #11 ranking in scoring defense in his first full season as coordinator….
Then he promotes OFFENSIVE Line coach Juan Castillo to DEFENSIVE coordinator. Castillo was an Linebacker in college but has never coached in the NFL on the defensive side of the ball.
I’m thinking this is going to go poorly.
As signing day speeds along I noticed Wake Forest signed this fella…
…Godspower Offor.
I don’t know if the name equals legit power but I can’t wait to here some announcer say, “Godspower with the sack”.
The Steelers have kept their lips sealed and have stayed drama free leading up to the Super Bowl. If I were the Packers right now I’d be really…..really nervous about this calm before the storm. I think Pittsburgh is poised to strike.

After watching the NHL All Star Game and NFL Pro Bowl yesterday, I came away with a stunning conclusion….the NHL got it right…and the NFL completely tossed up a dud.
The NHL All Star Weekend was a stroke of genius to revolve it around the two fantasy picked teams of Team Staal and Team Lidstrom. The players had fun all weekend, joked around, played to the fans and showed their personality. All of this done in the absence of the NHL’s brightest star, Sidney Crosby.
The Pro Bowl was a dud. The players seemed bored, disinterested and did not care to be there.
I am a football fan first and hockey fan second, but the NHL hit a homerun with the Fantasy Draft concept. I hope they stick with it because it did make the weekend what it was supposed to be: a show for the fans.
So how does one of the best NBA players in the game today not have a nickname?
I think that is a great question. To all my followers: what is a good nickname for Blake Griffin? Here are a couple of nicknames I’ve heard tossed around:
The Blake
Blake “The Quake”
The Poster Child
Any thoughts? What is a good nickname for Blake Griffin?
The Freezer is comin’ at ya…
