The Sports JAM 11-26 - Segments

Mike and Jeff share their observations of recent events with the help of a few select movie quotes....

Vossler's Shitty Situation

Mike thinks Adrian Peterson is in a bad spot trying to keep a quickly sinking ship afloat in Minnesota. Meanwhile, Jeff thinks Miami Heat head coach Eric Spoelstra has been in a bad spot from the beginning...



The Pressure Cooker

 Jeff thinks the pressure is rising once again for the NCAA as the possibility looms that they will once again give the Heisman Trophy only to perhaps take it away a few years from now; this time it will be Cam Newton.  Meanwhile, Mike thinks the hot seat  is just now warming up for boy wonder Josh McDaniels....







What Would Have Been the Odds?
 
Jeff talks about an odd recurrent theme in Portland, while Mike uncovers a strange circumstance in a deep AFC.....





Shooters Hitlist

Mike stays in the AFC and wonders about the conference leading New England Patriots.  Yes, they have the record, but some of the stats on this team have to make you wonder if their spot at the top is indeed safe.  Jeff uncovers the essence of Shooter's Hitlist with the 2010 Tampa Bay Buccaneers, a team living on borrowed time....




The Nedermayer Woodshed

Mike had a hard time deciphering which Bay area team has been more putrid lately, so why not just throw both in the shed?  After a strong start the Texans have once again returned to their terminal losing ways.  For teasing NFL fans once again, Jeff sends the Texans to the shed.....

The Sports JAM 11-26

On this episode of the Sports JAM, Jeff and Mike discuss the following questions........

Fact or Fiction

The season is over for Vince Young. Indeed, his tenure as a member of the Tennessee Titans may have ended as well. It seems like a certainty that the talented Young will get another shot, but will he ever become the star he once seemed so destined to be? Fact or fiction, Vince Young will be an impact player in the NFL....




Carlos Boozer is nearing his debut with the Chicago Bulls after battling a hand injury that has sidelined him for the entire season thus far. The Bulls showed considerable faith in Boozer by dropping max money on him during the off season. But, do Mike and Jeff have the same level of faith? Fact or Fiction, Carlos Boozer is a top ten power forward in the NBA right now.....




The Weigh In

Time for another "Heat Check" as Jeff and Mike look in on the progress of the NBA's newest super team. This time the news is ugly as the Heat sit at 8-6 on the season. Time to weigh in on just how much of a disappointment the Heat are at this point in the young season....






On the other hand, there are the San Antonio Spurs; the virtual opposite of the Heat as they sit at 13-1 on the season. But, are the Spurs for real? Jeff and Mike weigh in on the chances that the Spurs can hold it together and be a major player in the west come playoff time.




Buy or Sell

There can be little doubt about the train wreck that is the 2010 Minnesota Vikings. Things took a step in the right direction with the better late than never firing of embattled head coach Brad Childress. But, do the Vikings have more dead weight to unload? Like a 40 year old turnover machine at quarterback? Jeff and Mike elect to buy or sell on whether or not Favre, rather than Childress, is more to blame for the Vikings poor performance this season....


Two weeks can be a long, long time. Two weeks ago the Giants were trampling the Seahawks in Seattle and looked for all the world like the best team in the NFC. Two weeks and two losses later the Giants are on the outside looking in in the playoff race in the NFC. Yet, the season is far from over. Jeff and Mike decide if they are buying or selling on the Giants making the playoffs in 2010.....
