MLB Betting – Pirates vs Phillies Preview & Pick
It’s cool to see a Battle of Pennsylvania game matter besides Penguins/Flyers or Steelers/Eagles for a change, isn’t it?

Clemson football has developed a deep-seated reputation for under-performance. The Tigers routinely have elite athletes that are funneled to the professional ranks, yet it never seems to translate in the win column.
This is the last year any of these teams might be favoured to win the conference with TCU joining Big East play next season.
With the Lockout talk in the past, now is time to focus on getting your ducks in order for the impending fantasy season. Who will you take with your first two picks?
It’s been a three-day stretch like no other in the NFL, with big trades and (unofficial) signings galore as the lockout fades into rear-view mirror. So much is happening that it’s tough to keep track of it.

The trade winds in Major League Baseball leading up to the deadline this week are no longer just winds.
The Northwestern Wildcats were 7-3 last year when quarterback Dan Persa went down with a season-ending Achilles injury.
And they’re off! The NFL offseason transaction frenzy has begun. Teams’ Super Bowl futures are thus bound to fluctuate wildly over the next few weeks.
Last season’s slide to a 6-10 finish not only ended quarterback Vince Young’s days in Tennessee, it cost longtime Head Coach Jeff Fisher his job after compiling a 146-120 record since taking the team over with six games left to play in the 1994 season.
Jacksonville Head Coach Jack Del Rio was able to salvage an 8-8 record last season that in turn salvaged his job for at least one more season.
Brett Favre lingered on the sideline against the Detroit Lions during what was likely the last game of his 20-season career, often looking like he’d rather be kicking back on a lawn chair at his home in Mississippi.
The surprise team of the 2010 NFL season was the Kansas City Chiefs, but right behind one of Missouri’s football teams stood the other one, the St. Louis Rams.
For the first time in his long but short career with the Green Bay Packers, quarterback Aaron Rodgers was able to step out of his own shadow. A Super Bowl victory has a way of doing that for a gifted gunslinger who no longer has to look over his shoulder at a famous predecessor.
By the Detroit Lions’ standards, the 2010 season was a successful one. Detroit, which finished the season 6-10, closed the season with a four-game winning streak and tripled last season’s win total.
The city of Chicago has still not gotten over the loss to archrival Green Bay in the 2010 NFC Championship Game. The question for 2011 is whether the Bears team will rebound from a heartbreaking and soul-crushing loss.
Despite NCAA sanctions that prevented the team from participating in a bowl game in 2010, the University of Southern California Trojans burst out of the starting gate winning four straight and then suddenly faded, winning just one out of its next four to finish the season 8-5 overall under first year head coach Lane Kiffin.
