In addition, Divisional Playoff Weekend serves as the final dose of Saturday football during the NFL season, and also, the round kicks off the set bracket portion of the playoffs, with the two winners in each conference facing off for the right to play in the Super Bowl.

Teed Off
Entering this Saturday matinee game between the Colorado Avalanche and the Dallas Stars, I had all of the confidence in the world that we'd totally dominate Dallas. The reason is simple: when a team is embarrassed in any way, shape, or form, that team bites back big time. In the Avs' case, it was losing to the Edmonton Oilers after leading 3-0. So yeah, we're revved up and pretty angry.

My Thoughts About the Los Angeles Dodgers
It's still the offseason, but Spring Training is just around the corner. Teams have been busy with signing players to improve their rosters. No team has been more busier than the Los Angeles Dodgers. In case you haven't heard, the defending World Series Champions have signed Japanese phenom Roki Sasaki. I've been following the signing of several players since the offseason began, with one being Blake Snell, which was the only move I agreed with. To refresh your memory, Snell threw his first career no-hitter last season while he was with the San Francisco Giants. As you can tell from the title of this story, I have more to say about the Dodgers and the reasons why I have such a huge dislike of them. You must be wondering why I've been so harsh towards them in previous stories. My criticism of them will never ease up and won't anytime soon. Once you see the following reasons, you'll have a better idea of why I'll never look at them the same, nor respect them again.
