March 5th was a day that everyone at all levels of the NFL had circled on their calendars for the past two years. It was a day that everyone knew was imminent, yet no one wanted to actually see because of the ramifications associated with it. As soon as Thursday turned into Friday, there was no longer a collective bargaining agreement and the NFL was in its first uncapped year since 1993.

Having Brandon Webb go down in the first game of the 2009 season provided more than enough foreshadowing for a team that would be the only one in its division to have a losing record. The good news is, Webb is back, and the beastly country boy is set on making up for lost time.

In 2009, the AL West was LA and everyone else. The Mariners did, however, come away with a winning season, thanks in large part to ace Felix Hernandez and perennial hit-machine Ichiro.

Ok, I realize that, in my haste, I started posting MLB 2010 reviews of teams to refresh your memory of offseason acquisitions and trades without really calling attention to the unique way it’s going on here. It all started a few weeks ago when I saw Major League for the 100th time and then unsuccessfully tried to find online a Jobu doll.

Midnight stands just about an hour away and as soon as the clock strikes 12, expect a fast and furious free agency period to begin. With an uncapped year being ushered in simultaneously, this year’s class is a watered-down version of what it could have been had we not run into the labor strife that has now befallen us.

Three Maryland posts in a row!? I know people are probably getting pissed and are about to boycott the site, but please don’t. I promise this will be my final Maryland post of the year, or at least until they win the ACC tournament. But I know there were a lot of people who thought it was silly for the Terp fans to rush the court after beating a Duke team that they have beat more than anyone else except for North Carolina over the last decade.

I just wanted to follow up on my previous post on Maryland stud guard Greivis Vasquez and I don’t care if you want to read about it or not, but did you really think that I wasn’t going to write anything about that ridiculous game last night? I told you all to tune in last night on ESPN and witness what I was talking about in the article and I hope you all did because Vasquez was everything I said and more and in the process shut the door on Jon Scheyer and should now be, without question, the ACC Player of the Year.

If it wasn’t for a certain hockey game on Sunday afternoon, the game of the weekend would have been the one that took place at Cassell Coliseum on Saturday night between the visiting Maryland Terrapins and Virginia Tech Hokies. After both teams battled through two overtimes, Maryland ultimately prevailed and solidified their status as one of the hottest teams in the country. But it was more than just a great game; it was a microcosm of Maryland’s basketball program of the past four years, all of which have primarily focused on a certain fiery guard from Venezuela.

Oakland is a dismal place for sports fans these days. Al Davis did his part in making the Raiders unwatchable, and the Athletics are catching up in that race in a big way.

The dark and dismal days of February have finally receded, giving way to the heavenly and glorious return of baseball. Thus begins the team-by-team evaluation, beginning with last year’s AL West winner.
