Table Scraps

NFL- this league....what's the old saying? Any Given Sunday? Kudos to the Bills, Browns, Chiefs and to those behind Breaking Bad finale (not football I know, but had to get it in). Good thing the Browns season is over and I don't have to worry about them anymore. Ravens O looks lost and so does the Eagles D.. curious how many divisions get won with a 10-6 or 9-7 record. St. Peyton of Manning proving Mike Ditka's Sunday morning comments accurate.

MLB- How about a good old fashioned rust belt World Series? Who would not enjoy the Pirates/Indians in late October. Yet again baseball delivers right up to and including tonight's play-in between Rangers and Rays. Lots to like in who's left, so many reclamation stories it is truly tough to pick a fave.

NHL- eve of a new season, new divisions, an Olympic year, who can say who stands tall in June...top o' my head, couple quick picks- Ottawa and St Louis

Rivera- Never been a Yankees fan but the way the Pinstripers handled the last few weeks is what "mystique" is all about. The Pettitte/Jeter saunter to the mound had to leave even the hardest among us with a small lump in the throat. We may truly have had a birdseye view of history watching a a true master at his art.

Blue Jays- Twitter full of all sorts of chest pounding yesterday about how scrappy the birds were in game 162, not letting the Rays out of Toronto easily... way too late fellas, where was this never say die attitude in May, or June, or April?...This year goes into the books as an epic disapointment. And don't read me the injury report either- every team gets hurt. I am not buying that, too many good stories this year of teams turning it around to view the J's dismal campaign as anything other than a bust.

NBA- 2016 All Star Game in Toronto...fantastic. I will try to care, God knows I have 2 years + to get jacked.

CFL- Without a doubt, the "rouge" the most charming part of our game...how many games have been won or lost because of that little sucker? Anytime I see a 4-4 score, makes me proud to be Canadian. Actually... I do like the single.
