Josh Halpern Do the Pittsburgh Penguins have the talent to beat the Detroit Red Wings this year?

Yes. Crosby and Malkin have another year of playoff hockey experience and both are playing like men possesed, but the difference is the addition of Billy Guerin and Chris Kunitz. I know they added Hossa last year with the expectations he would give them the lift they needed to win the cup, but in my opinion he never wanted to play in Pittsburgh. He treated it as a temporary move until he could sign with another contender that could pay him more money. Guerin and Kunitz have embraced their move… Continue

Joel Kirsh Manny, Manny, Manny

Manny Ramirez.....okay so just what were thinking?



What were you thinking when you took the banned substance and almost, as important, what were you thinking when you came up with the lame excuse that your doctor prescribed medication that contained the banned substance?



Greed or Stupidity? Whatever it is....it is at least incredible that you would do it? First of all, $22 Million a year is not enough? That's enough money… Continue

Joel Kirsh Joel Kirsh Blog On NCAA March Madness

As March Madness fast approaches and having watched the incredible 6 overtime thriller between UConn and Syracuse last night (boy am I tired today!!), I am, once again, reminded of the beauty of NCAA hoops and this annual event.



In recent weeks, I have heard talk about eliminating automatic bids and taking only the top 65 teams. That is crazy and such talk should be dispelled immediately. We crave cheering for the little guy, we love the… Continue

Joel Kirsh Joel Kirsh Blog on Marvin Harrison and the Indianapolis Colts



Marvin Harrison, unfortunately, is a product of today's NFL.




The league that will soon be responsible for making him a 1st ballot Hall of Famer is the very same league that allows a magnificent and special player like Marvin to be cast away in favor of less expensive, and certainly much less talented, players. Players like Marvin deserve better and something must be done by the NFL, the owners and the players. Players should be… Continue

While, in life, it becomes easy categorize players with guilt by association, such reference is a disservice to those who play the game by the rules and are great players without the use of performance enhancing drugs. The sweeping generalization that… Continue
