  • Bracketeering 2012: Time for bubbles to burst

    Power conference tournaments have begun and in all six major conferences there are bubbles that will burst over the next three days. Already it looks like Seton Hall is in trouble while other bubble teams like Texas, Oregon and Mississippi State face can't-lose games today. Here's my stab at the field as of Thursday afternoon:

    The VCU Rams are back.

  • Leaping into the brackets

    Small and mid-major conference tournaments are underway and Selection Sunday is in a week and half. Below are the teams that I think are a lock (a lock being defined as a team that would be in the field even if they lose all remaining games) for the NCAA Tournament:

  • Tweeting the Madness

    March is just a few days away and already the NCAA Tournament talk is heating up. Be sure to follow me on Twitter and Facebook for bracket banter as well as thoughts on the NFL Draft, spring training and random Seinfeld references.

  • 2012 NFL Draft Notes

    With the Super Bowl in the rear view mirror teams are beginning to stack up their draft boards in anticipation of next week's Scouting Combine. The first round draft order is set with the exception of two ties that will be broken with a coin flip at the Combine. After that we await the compensatory picks to be awarded and the entire draft order will be set. Here are a few other items if note:

  • Super Predictions

    Welcome to Super Bowl Sunday and as always we've got predictions on the game and so much more. So without further ado:

  • College basketball's super Saturday

    Welcome to the biggest day of the college basketball regular season. It's actually the biggest and busiest. The reason? No one wants to play during the Super Bowl so just about everybody schedules a game for the day before.

  • Is there an easy fix for the Pro Bowl?

    All day long people were asking me if I saw the Pro Bowl on Sunday. The answer for me is always no. I spent a good chunk of Sunday evening watching "Scrubs" and college basketball. For those who saw it the reaction was something like "I gotta say, it was pretty lousy."

  • A Hater's Take On Conference Championship Sunday

    If there's any upside to the Packers exit from the playoffs it's that we've got a stress free weekend of football watching. So who am I rooting for? Well since I've been branded a "hater" for keeping it real regarding players like Tim Tebow I had to use a process of elimination. It basically comes down to the team that bothers me the least.

  • Updated 2012 NFL Draft Order

    With four teams remaining here's a look at the NFL Draft order through the divisional round of the playoffs. Unfortunately for the Packers the offseason begins a few weeks too early and due to the early exit Green Bay will select 28th.

  • New Orleans: The Center Of The Universe

    New Orleans is the place to be this weekend with two big games over a space of three days. It begins tonight with the Lions-Saints NFC Wild Card in a game that will go a long way in shaping up the Super Bowl race. The general thinking is New Orleans is the biggest threat to the Packers and a huge question will be can Detroit perform well in the spotlight? So far the answer has been no. Thus a Detroit win should be both a surprise and a relief to Packers fans.

  • 2012 NFL Draft Order

    The top twenty slots of the 2012 NFL Draft are set. The remaining 12 will be determined by the postseason. The Indianapolis Colts are on the clock.
