Angry Ward Wednesday: An Open Letter to Jerry Jones
August 8, 2018 Dear Jerry Jones: It has come to our attention that you are still the owner of the Dallas Cowboys, one of the most reviled franchises in the history of professional sports. Good for you… for still being alive! We can remember all those years ago when you took control of the only […]
Big Ben Whitney: Trump University vs LeBron High, the Trumpster fires Insults at LeBron, Don Lemon
Akron, OH – If you stopped by to see me admit some hard truths about the Yankees, well, I’m sorry to disappoint. I’m not ready. Instead, I am riveted by the clown in the white house, who spent another Friday night mean girl Tweeting. LeBron James was on the business end this time, as the […]
Angry Ward Wednesday: Oakland A’s, Clancy Strays, and the Daily News in Distress
HIGHLANDS, NC – I’m on vacation in the middle of nowhere. Almost no cell service, limited WiFi access, basically a Millennial’s nightmare. I’m not even all that sure what’s going on in sports. Has anyone on the Mets contracted Bubonic Plague? What’s Trump’s latest lame effort to deflect attention from the fact that Russia owns his […]
Angry Ward Wednesday: Your Sports Marriage Isn’t Working Out. Jeter, Bieber, Christie
NEW YORK, NY – 24-year-old popster Justin Bieber got engaged the other day to Stephen Baldwin’s 21-year-old daughter (good luck with that father-in-law, Biebs), and the kids couldn’t seem happier. That’s the way it always is at the beginning: you’re going to great restaurants, getting bombed, having sex all the time, living in the “now,” and […]
Rain Man Rants: Mets Prescription, Gareon Conley and World Cup Update
EL BARRIO, EL FALLS – I got a text on Thursday night, around 9pm, that I needed to move up in the batting order, again this weekend. I had to quickly search for topics – which was easy – so here we are ready in a hurry. Today’s’ menu: We’ll start with a savory Song […]
Angry Ward Independence Day: Sports Fireworks and Duds
NEW YORK, NY – Today is the Fourth of July and, who are we kidding, no one is going to be visiting this site. Like Joey Chestnut winning the Nathan’s hot dog eating contest and Jeurys Familia sh!tting the bed in the 9th inning, it’s a given. Still, there’s a job to do, and I’m just […]
Angry Ward Wednesday: Summer Fun – Then vs. Now
BRONX, NY – For New York City Public School kids, classes finally came to a merciful end yesterday. I think we are the last city on the planet to release youngsters from their academic obligations… by a LOT. And I’m not one of those parents who wish the year ran longer for these kids. Strangely enough, […]
Post NHL, NBA: Filling Void for Yankees Haters. NASCAR, Soccer, WNBA?
MARLBORO, NY – The 2017-18 NHL season is now over and done with and so is another uneventful NBA season. So what’s a diehard New York Mets fan – or a mild one like me – to do for the next four months? Words like fire sale are closely associated with the team as it […]
Washington Capitals’ Cup More Russian Capitol Collusion? Ovechkin, Trump, Putin
LAS VEGAS, NV – Thank you, Hockey Gods, for not allowing Lord Stanley’s Cup to be violated unspeakably/reprehensibly in the soul-less den of inequity that is the 2-block abomination known as Sin City. But at what price, ask Ye/Youse? Fair question. See, the Stanley Cup Finals are as close to war as it gets in […]
Skip the Little League World Series,Here Are NFL Fantasy Football Picks!
MARLBORO, NY – It’s August and for me that means two things–the Little League World Series tournament and NFL Fantasy Football season. As much as I’d like to pontificate about the Little Leaguers, I’ll save that for a future column. Like DJ Eberle on Monday, I’ll give you one sleeper at each position but unlike […]
