Skip is back!
To (hopefully) much fanfare, I’m announcing my return to Sorts of Sports.  Mr. Carmona has been pestering me for most of the past two years (during none of which have I have seen him in person) to get back to writing on a semi-regular basis. This morning I checked out SOS and realized that, outside of an NFC North preview that I cobbled together after a dozen or so Natty Boh’s, I hadn’t written anything for the site in nearly 18 months.
So, I’m back. For awhile anyway. And I’m marking my return with a Top 10 list – in this case, the Top 10 Reasons why I’m ecstatic that NFL Training Camps Have opened (and the season is near). Maybe it’ll be a running series?

With the First Pick...

I’m going to say something nearly every draft pundit is afraid to say: Jimmy Clausen is a better choice at No.1 overall to the St. Louis Rams than Sam Bradford.

Yes, I’m aware somewhere Todd McShay is cackling at this idea. Somehow ESPN’s two most informed draft experts, McShay and the institution Mel Kiper Jr., disagree vehemently on the issue. On his annual “Big Board,” Kiper has Clausen listed fourth overall, slotted just above Bradford who occupies the fifth spot. You’ll have to leave the first round to find Clausen on the Scouts Inc. ledger. Nearly all mock drafts have the Rams taking Bradford as the safe “franchise” quarterback.

The Super Bowl attracts so many people around the world, not because of the 1 game Championship style format or the level of talent on the field, but the people can all find reason to watch this game, and that comes from the ridiculous bets that Vegas and other Odds Makers put out for Sunday's game.

They start simple, such as Will the Coin Flip be Heads or tails?

The basic spread, money line, and Over/Under and the same as well. Things start to get interesting though as we do cross-sport bets and although Brian usually gives his advice. I wanted to give my advice on some of these absurd lines that could keep you interested in Sunday's game. These are all real bets.

Biggest Game of the Year?

E-mail Print PDF

Is it just me or is no one taking this Titans/Colts game seriously as the biggest game of the year? I am ready for the Titans to go into Lucas Oil Stadium and get the win of the year that helps propel this team into playoff contention. Yet no one else sees it that way.

Suddenly the Titans are a formidable team. Getting Vince Young in the lineup was like a mid season trade in baseball. That missing piece that puts the team over the edge and makes them a competitor against any team. The Titans are 5-6 but that record doesn't mean much in a game like this. The Titans have won 5 in a row obviously and Chris Johnson is the best running back in the NFL.
