Sports Bio

I follow the teams from Dallas-Fort Worth because I grew up with them, but I've adopted the Jacksonville Jaguars, the only pro team my new hometown is ever likely to get. The most memorable sporting event I attended live was game 6 of the NBA Western Conference finals in 1988 at Reunion Arena -- Mavericks vs. Lakers -- when Mark Aguirre and his prodigious caboose received half the game MVP award, and the 17,007 fans in attendance received the other half. I also follow U.S. Soccer, Sheffield Wednesday and Orlando City SC because members of this site dragged me into the beautiful game for the first time since the Dallas Tornado folded.

Max Scherzer Likely to Miss Playoffs Too: Texas Rangers pitcher Max Scherzer has a teres major strain (never heard of that) and will miss the rest of the regular season and "likely" the playoffs as well, general manager Chris Young said. The Rangers are a game behind Houston in the AL West race and in second in the wild card race, with Seattle and Toronto close enough to potentially keep them out of the postseason.

NFL Pickem Week 2: David After Dentist Edition: The NFL season without Aaron Rodgers begins Thursday night when the Vikings play the Eagles. The leader of the NFL Pickem out of the gate is Tommybiden, who scored 86 points. Nobody had the Cowboys over the Giants by anything close to 40. Everyone had the Vikings over the Bucs.

Can a soccer ref loan NFL refs his yellow and red card so we don't have to hear any more explanations that a foul is the first to count against a player towards disqualification?

Aaron Rodgers out for the season

I've been trying to think of anything like this in sports before where a star athlete is going to be a season-long inescapable media narrative and the plans fall apart so quickly and completely.

Dan and Dave in 1992?

Wish I could see some of these games. Every time I try CFL+ I'm told the stream is not allowed in the U.S.

I love the photo of Belichick in colorful plaid trying to look like he's enjoying a physical embrace " when he could be diagramming plays.
