Opening Day for the O’s Monday–my call 88-74 in a wild card battle again
FYI–Wellington Castillo has 4 HRs and 8 RBI in 23 AB against Estrada
O’s are 7-5 favorites today
Tar Heels are 1 1/2 point favorite—Like North Carolina
Caps hold on to beat Columbus 3-2–tremendous play by Holtby
Wizards lose 4th in a row–now have the 4th best record–5 of the remaing 7 are on the road
I am beginning to wonder if the Warriors are better … Read More »
I was impressed by how aggressive the Wizards have become offensively. They took it to Cleveland on Saturday. The Wizards might be stuck in the #3 slot in the East. Not sure if the Celtics or Cavs will finish first. One or the other will be the Wizards opponent in the 2nd round.
One of the brightest spots is the Beal/Wall combo – here is a take on Bradley Beal becoming the best he can be – click here … Read More »
UNC — Kentucky —one of the great games of March Madness
Early Lines for Saturday Tar Heels -4 1/2 over Oregon Gonzaga -6 1/2 over The Gamecocks
Luke Maye, a sophomore from NC scored 17 points in 20 minutes
Could you believe that Roy Williams refused to call a timeout as North Carolina sank–Finally he did and adjustment to a zone defense befuddled Calipari and thus the comeback.
Notable errors—Why would Williams allow Kennedy Meeks to throw in the ball … Read More »

After the Terps beat Indiana, we caught up with Vernon Davis
In the past 7 games Schoop, Davis, and Adam Jones are 8-70, with 24 strikeouts and only 3 RBI. NO HRs of course. Is it time to shake up the lineup?
Davis’ at bats are becoming hard to watch. The hottest hitter, Trey Mancini wallows on the bench. Bourne Hardy , and Wieters–are the best in this span and they are 7,8, 9 in the lineup.
It shouldn’t be that a 2-0 1st inning deficit brings out despair –but it … Read More »
*A Bissel of this A Bissel of that. Maryland Terps are ranked 83rd by Sagarin computer ratings. Isn’t Sagarin the artificial sweetner you put in coffee? Terps travel to Miami to play Florida International. I like that Maryland is playing in Florida. I think it can only help recruiting. I’m hoping for Piggy (Tyrrell Pigrome, Freshman QB) to get in for about 15 plays at qb tonight. In a couple of years Maryland is going to be a program that is going to … Read More »
If you have noticed I barely write about exhibition football games. I certainly do not go to them anymore. And this year I barely have watched them.
Ben Watson is now out for the year from an injury that occurred in a totally meaningless game. Tony Romo will miss at least half the season and his career could be on the line.
Harbaugh has suggested that injuries would be less likely to happen in controlled scrimmages or certainly if there … Read More »
The Chesapeake Bayhawks the Atlanta Blaze at Navy Marine Corps Stadium Thursday night riding a three game winning streak looking to drop a fourth straight mark into the left column to inch closer to a playoff spot.

The Bayhawks looked flat opening the contest losing the first two faceoffs, turning the ball over on two of their first three possessions and … Read More »
