It’s Wednesday and “The Stack” has a lot of different sports headlines and storylines from Tuesday to choose from. As promised, we will talk about one of the many Super Bowl storylines. So let’s see what else made “the stack” for today, Wednesday, January 25:
1. Detroit Tigers land Prince Fielder.
This move was certainly a surprise [...]
Well, it didn’t take too long for the Tom Brady vs. Eli Manning rematch that some people were hoping for. It was February 3, 2008 when quarterback Eli Manning and the New York Giants strolled into Arizona for Super Bowl XLII. Their opponent: the 18-0 New England Patriots led by quarterback Tom Brady. The favorite: the Patriots by 12 points. The outcome: An unbelievable drive led by Manning [...]
With the 2011 NFL season is just weeks from kicking off, the anticipation is growing. Especially after being away from football for so long due to the lockout, I’m sure fans around the league can’t wait to get things rolling again.
In preparation of that, I’ve decided to start a season preview series discussing different aspects of each team in relation to their respective divisions. [...]
The Pittsburgh Steelers landed in Dallas Monday night to begin their final week of preparation for the Super Bowl. After landing, presumably the fellas got their bags and headed to their rooms. Some presumably remained in their room for the remainder of the night. Some presumably went out for a nice dinner. And some definitely went out to see first hand if there really is a stripper shortage…
For the second year in a row, the Super Bowl will have a feature back from the University of Illinois. This time, the Illini tailback is the Pittsburgh Steelers’ Rashard Mendenhall;* who in 2008 became the first University of Illinois player taken in the first round of the NFL Draft since 1996.
14 years ago, UI produced the #2 (Kevin Hardy taken by Jacksonville) and #3 overall…
Basically, Super Bowls have, in the past, been held only in warm weather areas or areas that have Domes on their Stadiums. The vast majority of those being in warm weather areas. In fact, Twenty-six out of forty-four Super Bowls have been played in one of three locations: New Orleans, (nine times), the Greater Miami area (ten times), and the Greater Los Angeles [...]
It was heartwarming when the long-downtrodden Saints won the Super Bowl. It didn’t get any less heartwarming when Drew Brees(notes) made the media rounds in the weeks after the game, establishing himself as the sweetest and most humble man in America.
Apparently, everyone on the entire team was an absolute ray of sunshine.
Scott Fujita(notes), a somewhat [...]
Who is the greatest QB of all-time? Is it Joe Montana, John Elway, Tom Brady, Peyton Manning, or Brett Favre? All of these men are in the conversation for different circumstances.
Favre holds every major personal passing record.
What do you think of when you think of Peyton now? It’s sure as hell not greatest of all time, and for me, it’s not even top 10. The guy has been a nobody in the playoffs through his career. 9-9 overall, which should already take him out of the discussion for greatest of all [...]
It’s that time of year again. When all the hard work from the whole year has finally payed off for the Colts and Saints.
The two opposing QB’s where MVP candidates and had some of the most high scoring offenses.
But with the game only days away, it’s time to take a look at who has the advantage…
