Well, one week of NBA basketball is behind us and it is time to put out my first Power Rankings of the season. Sorry, but I do things a bit differently. I am not going to rank all 30 teams in the league. That is simply a daunting task. I mean, writing something about the [...]

2012 Liberty Bowl Cincinnati v Vanderbilt: A Reason to Watch
Yesh’s Thoughts: Cincinnati against Vanderbilt gives us an interesting matchup in the Liberty Bowl. Vandy was a team that looked better than their record all season long, and who looked like a pretty good team in the last 2 months of the season. They blew out a decent Wake Forest team and lost close games [...]
Pinstripe and Music City Bowl: Reasons to Watch
Yesh’s Thoughts: Don’t let the records deceive you this year. The Pinstripe Bowl is actually a matchup between two evenly-matched teams. Actually, if it were up to me to decide, I would say that 6-6 Iowa State had a much better season than 8-4 Rutgers. Let’s just take a step back and see what it [...]
Armed Forces Bowl: Yesh’s Love and Seths Prospects
Yesh’s Thoughts: Once again, I’m really looking forward to the Armed Forces Bowl. There were three bowls that were highlighted by many as potential offensive shootouts: Toledo-Air Force, Baylor-Washington, and BYU-Tulsa. The first two have not disappointed and I don’t expect this one to either. Both teams have great offenses and better-than-advertised defenses. This game [...]
2011′s Game of the Year: The A-League Grand Final – Brisbane vs Central Coast
The greatest thing about being a sports fan is getting to see some unbelievable things happen that seem to defy logic. It’s those “I was there” moments that really make the entire roller-coaster experience worthwhile, everyone remembers where they were when they saw the Patriots upset the Rams in Super Bowl 36, then get upset [...]
Military Bowl: Air Force v Toledo
It’s MACtion, and it’s the Military Bowl and we here at TSHQ are giving you yet another reason to watch one of the “lesser” bowl games, even though as my boy Yesh will explain, you don’t need another reason to watch the MAC attack, especially since there isn’t a ton of NFL talent in this [...]
NFL Week 16 Recap
It’s amazing how there will always be someone trying to devalue and denigrate an astonishing performance. When Tom Brady broke Peyton Manning’s passing touchdowns record in 2007 there were almost as many fans saying it should have an asterisk as there were fans saying what a great effort it was. It should not have counted [...]
And then there were 6, TSHQ Breaks Down College Hoops’ 6 Remaining Unbeatens
Can Murray State or or one of the other Remaining Unbeatens Run the Table? by Gus Elvin As we approach New Year’s Day and wrap up the 2nd month of the college basketball season we currently have 6 remaining unbeatens left in college basketball. These unbeatens are a very diverse group as highly ranked preseason [...]
Kellen Moore- All-Time Great or Greatly Overrated?
Boise St. football, for the lack of a better expression, is polarizing. There is very little wiggle room for one’s feelings about them. In fact if you ask anyone from a college football die-hard to a casual CFB fan, you’re likely to get the same result: a dramatic response. The Broncos for years have been [...]
