The rehabilitation process for Mets third baseman David Wrigh t took a turn for the worse on Tuesday.  According to Mets General Manager Sandy Alderson, Wright was diagnosed with a shoulder impingement and has been flown back to New York to be evaluated. Anderson added that Wright's status for Opening Day is in question. Wright has been taking things very slowly this spring. He was throwing the ball only 60-70 feet, and with little zip. All of his workouts happened in private around Mets training personal, and the only time he played before public eyes was as a DH in a couple preseason games. Alderson added that Wright will be shut down for a couple of weeks to make sure that his shoulders stabilizes after he takes a PRP (Platelet Rich Plasma) injection in his shoulder to ease the pain. There is no structural damage. Obviously this news raises red flags about Wright's health. He is coming off of two major surgeries the last two years. Last season he missed most of the sea...

For the first time since last June, David Wright picked up a baseball and threw it. No it wasn’t at full speed, and the throws were not anywhere near regulation tosses across the diamond from third to first base. He’s not ready for that just yet. Wright had 30 throws that averaged between 60-70 feet. He did the exercise in private with only the Mets training staff looking on. If anything, Wright left without any discomfort, and reports are that he felt good, if not anxious to get back to the player he once was. The questions will be how soon before Wright can play in Spring Training games, and when he does return, what will his position be? First things first, the Mets have to get Wright back into game shape. Reports from nj.com say that Wright spent much of the offseason fielding grounders and taking batting practice when he could, but he’s still nowhere near where the Mets want him to be to play in a game. Let’s remember that this is a man coming off a very trick...

If 2016 wasn't a bad enough year for Jets cornerback Darrelle Revis, 2017 is not looking much better. Revis was charged with four felonies and a misdemeanor after his involvement in an altercations with two men in Pittsburgh last week. The report was broken last nig ht. According to reports two men were left unconscious, and the Jets star has been charged by police for   two felony counts of aggravated assault, one felony count each of robbery and conspiracy, and a misdemeanor count of terroristic threats. The police report said that two men, Dallas Cousins, 22 and Zach Jarvis, 21, were following Revis, and one of the men was recording Revis on his cell phone. Revis turned and grabbed the phone and tried to delete the video. Jarvis tried to get the phone back, but Revis tossed the phone into the road. Revis got into a verbal fight with the two young men, before both ended up on the ground. According to Rich Cimini, a witness, named Nathan Watt, told police that Revis...

PATRIOTS 34 - FALCONS 28 - OT There are no words to describe exactly what happened on Sunday night in Houston. What America witnessed was simply the greatest comeback in NFL history. You can give me the Jets Monday Night Miracle against the Dolphins in 2000, or the Bills comeback against the Houston Oilers in the 1993 Wild Card Game, it doesn't matter -- nothing will top this. The moment. The stage. It was all there for the New England Patriots and they seized it. The Atlanta Falcons blew it. There is not much to say from the Falcons perspective. Blowing a 28-3 lead is not only a horrible sin at any point in a season, but to do so in the Super Bowl is one that Dan Quinn and company will never get over. Sure the Falcons are a young football team. The popular refrain is they will be back, but this kind of defeat is one that will hang over this franchise for years to come. When the Falcons scored their final touchdown of the night to make it a 25 point game, they were 8:31 aw...
