I know some of you are getting a tingly feeling in your leg a la Chris Matthews. Cowher chatted yesterday with USA Today and is hinting that he may be ready to return to the sidelines. Cowher said, “I’m open to listen to opportunities … I’m very comfortable at CBS. I’ll keep all my options […]

Jerricho Cotchery is simply amazing
The following video is a must-see moment from this weekend’s NFL game between the New York Jets and the Cleveland Browns. For much more on Jerricho, we encourage you to spend some time here. For dozens of great conversations and Wolfpack coverage, click here. Need a tie to UNC because of the upcoming game this […]
Philip Rivers is Peter King’s MVP
Last week we highlighted the record setting season that Philip Rivers is putting together. (Click here) Rivers 2,649 yards are the most ever by an NFL quarterback in the first eight games of a season. Who did he pass? Now behind him is former Chargers QB, and Hall of Fame inductee, Dan Fouts whose old […]
JJ Hickson about to make it big…or not?
The NBA started its 2010-2011 season last night to a ‘big whoop’ in these parts. I don’t even think our message boards had a single thread about ‘The League’s’ opening night. Nonetheless, the Cleveland Cavaliers and JJ Hickson open their season against the Boston Celtics tonight. From page 76 of the August 30th, 2010 […]
Congratulations, Texas Rangers
Wanted to take a moment to congratulate the Texas Rangers for their big win over the evil New York Yankees to advance to their first ever World Series. The Rangers’ fellow Texas-based partners in futility, the Houston Astros, managed their way to the 2005 World Series…so, now only two Major League franchises have failed to […]
Kiper fallout related to the UNC scandals and increasing national scrutiny of Butch (Day 91)
I don’t have a lot of time tonight, but I am going to pass along a few things. First, some quick “dot connecting” that grew out of the big Sports Illustrated piece that hit yesterday. One interesting passage from that article dealt with “NFL draft guru” Mel Kiper. He is the annoying guy with the “Lego man” […]
2010 MLB Playoffs are here!
The next month is just an amazing time of year when sports fans can feast on a smorgasbord of delights – college and pro football hit full stride, NASCAR is in the middle of the Chase for the Cup, professional hockey and college and pro basketball get ignited, and Major League Baseball shifts into “Fall […]
NFL Open Entry
Today is a big day for NC State alums in the NFL. Of particular interest to me is the Houston Texans hosting the Dallas Cowboys. Houston’s defense is coordinated by former NC State linebacker, Frank Bush, and anchored by Wolfpack great, Mario Williams. (Click here for a recent look at Super Mario) As a little […]
A Look at the Wolfpack’s NFL Prospects
As a follow-up to our look at Wolfpackers in the NFL (click here), The National Football Post has taken a closer look at NC State’s NFL prospects. Their scouting series gives a brief description and impression of each player. The only Wolfpacker that earned the NFP is Nate Irving. No surprise. Unfortunately, the NFP may […]
Wolfpackers in the NFL
As we head into football season, it is time for a little peek into former NC State players currently competing in the NFL. This link does a great job of providing a list with some quick updates on each player. (Please note that Toney Baker was cut last night by the Denver Broncos.) Andre Brown […]
