NFL Trade Deadline, GM Tirades, Is Buffalo In NY?
EL BARRIO, EL FALLS – Another beautiful week is in the books. This means I am up and there is not much to touch on. I will skip the World Series cause I really haven’t been paying attention. The NBA season just started so we have like 9 month before the games matter. Hockey can […]
Easter Rising: Resurrected Stars, Scapegoats, Surgery. Rocky, Tommy, OJ.
INDIANA, PA – You trivia buffs (Tall Matt, Mrs. Tall Matt, Replacement Matt) may note that this town is famous for two things: A) It’s where my wife is from B) It’s the home of Jimmy Stewart. The former has yours truly here for Easter, in the bosom of her very nice family. After two […]
Angry Ward: What If The Fix Was In On Miracle on Ice, 86 Series, Super Bowl III…
BRONX, NY – Yesterday I started reading ESPN’s piece on disgraced former NBA ref Tim Donaghy, and how he most likely fixed a whole mess of NBA games. This was a revelation only in that the NBA wanted everyone to believe that he never did (yeah, right) and that he was merely a guy with a […]

Ebs’ Hot Takes: Money v. Khabib, Nick Bosa, Los Angeles Dodgers
FROM THE PRESS BOX – It’s been quite the week in sports. The NBA is finally underway. Though, LeBron James hasn’t suited up for the Los Angeles Lakers yet. But I digress. Nick Bosa decided to leave Ohio State and start his pre-draft process early. Oh and Khabib Nurmagomedov is suppose to face Floyd Mayweather? […]
Angry Ward Wednesday: Lie, Cheat, Steal and Win – America Has Lost its Way. A-Rod, Lance, Mets, Pats
BRONX, NY – I went to David Wright’s final Mets game last Saturday night with Short & Tall Matt, but I just don’t have the heart or energy to write about what a disappointment it was. It felt a lot closer to the Mets money-grab I thought it was going to be than the legitimate farewell […]
World Series Ends, NY Rangers Right Ship, Jets Confound, Giants Mess
NEW YORK, NY – The end of baseball hostilities came Wednesday night when the Astros dispatched the Dodgers in Game 7 of the World Series. Last night, the J-E-T-S made DJ Eberle miserable, beating Da Bills 34-21 in another Thursday Night Football game nobody watched. Meanwhile, the NY Giants are in chaos. But the biggest […]
Ebs’ Hot Takes: World Series, Buffalo Bills, New York Yankees, Al Pedrique
WEST PITTSTON, PA – It’s been quite the week in the sporting world. A couple of bonehead mistakes took place – I’m looking at you Yuli Gurriel, Bob McNair and Martavis Bryant – but at the same time a lot of great things happened. There was that EPIC Game 5 of the World Series Sunday […]
NY Rangers Poop a Dud, Bronx Bombers Ready to Detonate
NEW YORK, NY – The New York Hockey Rangers are off to a terrible start, going 1-5-2 so far after last night’s shootout loss to the Islanders. They’ve struggled to score goals and Alain Vigneault has been mixing up lines already trying to find a mix that works. Nothing has worked so far. The Blueshirts […]
Ron Darling, Jim Kelly, Lance Armstrong: Understanding Athletes. Understanding Cancer
BLOOMINGBURG, NY – It was recently announced that former New York Mets pitcher and current team broadcaster Ron Darling has thyroid cancer.
