Ebs’ Hot Takes: Eli Manning, College Football Playoff, Hue Jackson
FROM THE PRESS BOX – It’s been a wild week. From the Philadelphia Eagles making the playoffs, to the latest drama surrounding the Pittsburgh Steelers to Troy Tulowitzki unexpectedly signing with the New York Yankees. I love the move by the way. Sometimes you can’t even make this stuff up. Do you know what else […]
Ebs’ Hot Takes: Rob Gronkowski, Buffalo Sabres, Aaron Boone, New York Yankees, Alabama
WEST PITTSTON, PA – Folks, there’s no intro or lede this week. I’m jumping right in to some hawt taeks. I’m wasting no time. Enjoy. Rob Gronkowski deserves a multiple-game suspension. There is no place for what Rob Gronkowski did to Tre’Davious White during the fourth quarter on Sunday. Sure, White got away with pass […]
Ebs’ Hot Takes: Cris Collinsworth, Baker Mayfield, NBA, Championship Weekend
WEST PITTSTON, PA – First thing’s first, Aaron Rodgers would have most-definitely outplayed Brett Hundley Sunday night against the Pittsburgh Steelers, Cris. As the Steelers were driving down the field to kick a game-winning field goal NBC color analyst Cris Collinsworth made a bold statement. He felt that if Rodgers had played Sunday, he wouldn’t have […]
What Ebs’ Learned: Syracuse Hoops, Atlanta Hawks, NFL Playoffs, College Football Playoffs
WILKES-BARRE, PA – Without the Buffalo Bills playing this weekend, I didn’t quite know what to do. The Wild Card round was cool and all, but I had a pretty good hunch each one of the four games was going to be a blowout. And the game I was looking forward to most – the […]
What We Learned: More On The College Football Playoff
WILKES-BARRE, Pa. – When the College Football Playoff field was announced Sunday afternoon, there wasn’t much surprise that Washington took the fourth spot. The same four teams remained at the top, with little adjustment, and the No. 4 team could have gone either way between Penn State and the Huskies. Both teams won conference titles, beating […]
Ebs’ One Big Thing: The College Football Playoff
SITTING IN A MIGHTY TACO, NY – Even travelling out to Buffalo for a wedding and a Bills win won’t stop me from writing this week’s column! What transpired Saturday was the last thing the College Football Playoff selection committee wanted. An Ohio State victory over Michigan in the Shoe, a Penn State blowout over […]
Ebs’ Hot Takes: Dallas Cowboys, New York Yankees, College Football Playoff
WILKES-BARRE, PA – It’s a great time to be alive. Not only is Thanksgiving a few days away, but this is probably the best time of the year as a sports fan. College basketball is underway, and we’re seeing great non-conference matchups like Duke–Kansas take place, the Division I college football season is nearing championship […]
Ebs’ Hot Takes: Clayton Kershaw, Odell Beckham Jr., The College Football Playoff
WILKES-BARRE, PA – The fall is truly the greatest time of the year. Football is underway, it’s the postseason in the MLB, the NHL is back and the greatest event in horse racing is right around the corner. It’s truly wonderful. Oh, it also means that we’re just a bit closer to the winter, which means […]
Ebs’ One Big Thing: College Football Playoffs
CLIFTON PARK, NY – When looking at the field of four in this year’s College Football Playoff, you can comfortably say that the selection committee got the top 4 teams right. Well, for the most part. It’s certainly not like last year, when you could have easily made the case for TCU or Baylor. This year however, most […]
Ebs’ Hot Takes: Buffalo Bills, Cleveland Cavaliers, Georgia, Alabama, Jon Gruden
CLIFTON PARK, NY – Ah, the Buffalo Bills’ best season this side of the millennium came to an end on Sunday. And in classic Bills fashion, too. Jalen Ramsey intercepted Nathan Peterman with less than a minute left in the game and Buffalo driving. However, the call on the field probably should have been overturned. […]
