With only one win in 2009, and one game remaining against the San Francisco 49ers it now seems very likely that the St. Louis Rams will have the first overall pick in the 2010 NFL Draft. This after having the second overall pick in last year’s draft.

The cities with the best NHL fans

In my travels around the internet this week I came across a very interesting list. A list by Forbes Sports Money ranking the best NHL fans. Here is an explanation of the formula that Forbes used to draw these conclusions: “How do we know? For the 2008-09 season, we ranked teams based on average regular-season home game attendance as a percentage of arena capacity, regular-season local television viewers as a percentage of the team's metro area population and team merchandise sales.” With that being said let us take a look at their conclusions:

The Colts not only sell out a chance at history, but their fans as well

What does a NFL team who has won 23 straight NFL games, is on the verge of completing a perfect season, and in fact completing one of the most magical season in NFL history do? If your answer is to roll over like a bunch of scared little girls, maybe you can run the Indianapolis Colts. The performance they turned in the second half of that game versus the New York Jets was nothing short of offensive. Considering that I live in Detroit, and have been a lifelong Detroit Lions fan, that is really saying something. In fact the Colts played so poorly in the second half that they looked just like the Lions who have won two NFL games over the past two NFL seasons.

Doug Melvin, General Manger of the Milwaukee Brewers, has a problem on his hands. He needs to an arm or two to his starting rotation, but with about 80 million dollar payroll, ownership is unwilling to pay out more. On top of that nearly a quarter of the Brewer payroll is tied up in two players, one of whom is no longer on their roster.

Another ugly loss, but the Detroit Lions learned a few things

Ok the Detroit Lions lost their 20th consecutive road game yesterday, a pretty ugly loss to the San Francisco 49ers. Once again the Lions failed to score a touchdown. While nobody wants to see this team lose, the Lions learned several things in yesterday's game that will help the front office rebuild this team moving forward.
