There's alot going on in sports so instead of writing three separate articles, I'll cover each in this one.  I hope this can become an enduring part of this blog.  Without further ado. The superfight The biggest fight of our lifetimes according to Stank-0 is one giant step closer.  Mayweather agreed to terms and the only thing left is the date.  Right now that is March 13, 2010.  People, calm

You, my good readers, knew this day was coming.  Every dog has its day and so forth.  The sun shone very brightly on the New England Patriots and it has now set.  A seven year run in this post- parity NFL is quite an accomplishment, but let's call a spade a spade.  IT'S OVAH!  The Patriots are a good team but it's not the same unit out there any more. Let's run down the case.  The beginning of

It seems that some teams don't really get drafting, even though it is a yearly ritual.  Some like to draft flashy players (looking at Oakland) or get receiver after receiver (was looking at Detroit).  The draft is very very simple nowadays with blogs, ESPN, draftniks, and Mel Kiper.  There's a tsunami of information about a player before he even gets to the Combine.  Stank-0 will walk you

Stank-0 is goin on vacation for Thanksgiving and anticipates the rest of the unit will be out of pocket as well. We'll have some opinions up on the Thanksgiving Day games as well as any sports that occurs as soon as we all recover from turkey overload return home.  If you absolutely need a sports fix, go here.  In the mean time, HAVE A VERY HAPPY THANKSGIVING.

This week...wow! (AP Photo/Charlie Riedel) The Chiefs pulled it out in OT against the Steelers. Chris Chambers still has some life left in him. Jamaal Charles was BALLIN today. A kickoff return and a receiving TD. Stank-0 sees you stuntin boy. These situations will pay off next season. Big Ben was knocked out of the game and Charlie Batch filled in well but the Chiefs D stood tall and got the

= (See he's practicing already!) This is a tad premature, but Brady Quinn will not longer be among the land of the living.  Not after he chop blocked Terrell Suggs and possibly cost Suggs the season. See, Quinn clearly wasn't thinking. The Ravens are your division rival and the last thing you want is an angry defense gunning for you. Stank-0 doesn't know the Browns schedule, but Quinn has to

Stank-0 called the Cy Young for Mr. Greinke months ago. Greinke is playin some serious baseball right now. He is 6-0 with an ERA under 1 (.40 to be exact). Last year's Cy Young winner, Cliff Lee, also jumped to a 6-0 start. Stank-0 believes in history. Greinke showed flashes at times.  Young boy came a mighty long way from battling social anxiety disorders to Cy

Mark your calendars. Church. Tabernacle. Synagogue. Mosque.  Stank-0 cannot see a way this fight

If you did not watch the Patriots @ Colts on NBC, go Plaxico yourself.  You missed out!  Stank-0 is gonna throw this out there right now.  Al jinxed the Patriots when he said that most QBs who throw for 300+ yards lose the game but Brady is the exception.  What happened?  The Comeback Colts stormed back into the game.  Also, Stank-0 understands putting the game on ice by going for it on 4th

I don't know if I speak for the rest of The Stankoniforous Files but I am a huge Ocho Cinco fan, but the CBS NFL crew came down pretty hard on #85. I can understand the dollar thing didn't go over too well, but uh...who actually tries to bride someone with a single dollar?It's like we are told to be individuals just don't be too individualistic, which is contradictory.

Riddle me this, how do the Chiefs lose to the Raiders then come back and beat them today?  Stank-0 don't get it.  If you can beat them once you can beat them twice, right? In any case, Stank-0 will take any W's that the Chiefs can get. There will be more on this week later.  Stank-0 had to get that off his chest, right quick. Mr. Charles, you did your thing today son!

They almost jumped on the floor after Wade racked on Verjao.As one commentor says, this easily tops Melo bangin out on Milsap. OH BROTHER!P.S. Tomorrow is the Pacquiao/Cotto fight! I'll let Ed give you the particulars on this.[Shout out to Ed the Sports Fan]

This will be short.  Stank-0 is late on this but what is really goin on? The woman in the picture definitely does NOT like the new look.  Sammy, Stank-0 does not know what's goin on in your life but remember that Black Jesus still loves you.

(AP Photo/Brian Blanco)I, Werds, will hop in the saddle for week 9.What do we know? That the elite teams keep finding ways to win. The Saints haven't been as explosive as they were earlier in the season, but they make those 2-3 crucial plays that decide a game.The Colts keep chugging along, remaining perfect and have set themselves up for a quite a Sunday Night matchup against the Patriots.

Larry Johnson sent packing. We all kinda felt this would happen so we can move on. That is all on this topic. [Stank-0's note:  Not to be all over your post here, but Stank-0 has a few thoughts on LJ's departure.  See, when LJ was good we (read: KC fans) could look past the boneheaded off the field behavior.  Tossing dranks on women, etc. was brushed aside because the boy could run the football.

To those of you whom are not NBA watchers, legendary guard Allen Iverson's last team is the Memphis Grizzlies. They are bad. Not just bad but turrible. Where am I going you ask? The latest news out of the Grizzlies camp is that AI has had enough. He is taking some personal leave and goin to ATL, where he rests his head in the offseason. AI's decline has been lamented before. AI might

I couldn't believe what I was reading but yes it happened. It was in black and white for me to lay eyes on and I must say, all I could do was laugh. Roy Williams (you know the third best receiver on the Cowboys) yea, you all know him. Is disgruntle that Miles Austin is out shining him. I took the liberty of gathering some of Roy's quotes so please...enjoy. "It's just not even close," Williams

It just looks like at times.  Take the just-finished World Series.  This is what Stank-0 said before it started. So dear readers, who you got and in how many games. Right here and now, 6 games...NEW YORK YANKEES! Yup, you guessed it.  Stank-0 had it right on the money.  *Going to play his numbers*    Since the Yankees won, there has been unprecedented hate like it was Obama

You know, I been thinkin about a certain Houshmanzadeh lately. He jumped shipped and moved back West in search of mo cake and a change of scenery. I hope that money is making you feel better because you won't get many wins, b. The C-Hawks are turrible (No Barkley) and show no signs of getting better. They are just slightly better than bad.

It's official NFL parity is OVER!  It was certainly fun while it lasted.  For 10 years, you had hope that you could go from worst to first...or prayed you didn't go from first to worst.  It's all over.  A hierarchy is slowly settling in.  Stank-0 been working on this in his head.  It shakes out something like this.  ELITE:  Steelers, Colts, Saints, Patriots These teams are clearly the class of

Finally the Yankees have dispatched the Angels to advance to the World Series to face a well rested Phillies team.  Stank-0 had a feeling they would close out at home. A-Rod has finally been playing some ball during the PLAYOFFS!  Keep it up and you have can have some hardware that is a bit more blingy than your MVP trophies.  Speaking of which, isn't Rodriguez pretty much a lock to get another
