Grievance: What’s Wrong With the NBA

So once again an NBA player has decided to demonstrate what’s wrong with the NBA. During Monday night’s game between the New York Knicks and the Boston Celtics, words were exchanged between Carmelo Anthony and Kevin Garnett. The two got double technical fouls but it didn’t end there. Anthony was spotted waiting in front of…

Grievance: “Writers”

Normally, I would ignore articles like this because even the headline sounded completely ridiculous. However, a reader reached out to me to address this garbage. Some “writer” (used loosely) whose name will not be given needed to fulfill his quota for the week and wrote some ridiculous tripe about Colin Kaepernick negatively portraying the quarterback…

Grievance: A Letter to Roger Goodell

Dear Mr. Goodell, First, let me start by congratulating you on your handling of the CBA negotiations last year. No regular season games were lost and we even were spared one less preseason game. The game’s popularity is higher than ever and I’m just glad to see some football. However, I do have some concerns….

Grievance: Diddy Earn It? Then Why Should He Pay?

This is a story that I’ve been following since it broke a few months ago, but recently made its way back into the news. Justin Combs, son of Sean Combs (AKA “Puffy”, “P-Diddy”, or “Diddy” depending on if you spent your formative teen years in the 90s or 2000s), received a full scholarship from UCLA beginning…

Grievance: You Play to Win the Game

I am just going to come out and say it, children today are SOFT! When little league teams started giving out “participation” awards and other teams would play without keeping score, that was the beginning of the end. Take this parent-of-the-year candidate, per Yahoo Sports, a woman in Arkansas is suing her son’s high school,…

I was reading an interesting article on FOX Sports this morning that mentioned some remarks given during an interview with Boston Celtics players Rajon Rondo and Ray Allen. Rondo stated that he had no interest, even if selected, to play for the U.S. Olympic basketball team. His reasoning: “I love my summers. I’ll leave it at…

Grievance: A “Football” Decision is a “Blatant Lie”

I have to wonder if New England Patriots Offensive Coordinator Josh McDaniels and quarterback Tom Brady are sitting somewhere in Massachusetts pissing themselves laughing. I wonder if McDaniels is saying to Tom, “I planned this from the beginning. Count another division title.” Now of course it’s ridiculous to think that McDaniels had the forethought to…

Grievance: Whose Hall of Fame is it Anyway?

In case you missed the announcement, which is possible since it was made the day before the Super Bowl, the 2012 Pro Football Hall of Fame class was announced. For now the 5th consecutive year, NFL all-time great wide receiver Cris Carter has not been selected for enshrinement in Canton. In addition, NFL & Raiders…

Grievance: I LOVE the 49ers, but SCREW Joe Montana

Whenever I think of athletes and their interactions with fans, I remember this episode. My love of football and the San Francisco 49ers goes back to my childhood, watching football with my Uncle Doug when I was eight years old. Guys like Jerry Rice, Roger Craig and Steve Young were some of my favorites, however…

Grievance: Another Stupid Reason to Hate the Patriots

Will someone, anyone please help me understand why everyone outside of Massachusetts hates the New England Patriots? I can understand why their AFC East division rivals do. I can even see why Philadelphia Eagles would, because they hate everyone who wins more than them. YES THAT WAS A SHOT…ENJOY WATCHING THE PLAYOFFS! But what about…
