By Sterling Pingree- Sports Chowdah When you think of rock music across any era, and you imagine the epitome of what rock can be, what is the first song you think of? The measuring stick against which all others are measured. Until now, the arguments about the best song are about as clear and concise […]
The Patriots 2019 schedule was leaked a bit early on Wednesday. On paper it’s a “Tale of Two Seasons” really. Much of the first half of the season is basically made up of bye weeks while the second half could present some challenges. The Pats raise Super Bowl banner #6 in front of the Steelers. […]
At approximately 2:27pm yesterday, the world shook. In most cases, saying that the earth shook from something that happened in sports would be considered radical hyperbole, but Tiger Woods winning the 2019 Masters is above all hyperbole. One of the greatest athletes of ours or any generation ascended back to the top of the world […]
The NFL will release its schedule within the next week or so. Roger Goodell has already chickened out and moved the Patriots opener to Sunday night instead of Thursday (as is tradition for the Super Bowl champs) so he doesn’t have to come to Gillette. We know the Patriots will host: Cleveland, Dallas, New York […]
The new Alliance of American Football (AAF) kicked off Saturday. While social media is giving the product some love, I can guaran-darn-tee you nobody in the six state area known as New England cares. Well, at least not Patriots fans. After dining on lobster with the Pats, theres no appetite to munch on sea urchins […]
My former WZON co-host Pat Spekhardt started a lively Facebook debate last week. His contention: the Tom Brady era is amazing but not as impressive as the Bill Russell era. As often was the case on our old radio show, I feel the need to set him straight. Let’s be clear out of the gate. […]
It’s not like the Patriots play in the Super bowl every year… Oh wait, they do? Well, still, theres no time like the present to to hear some energetic, unique opinions and takes on the Patriots win and Superbowl LII. Join me as I launch Sports Chowdah Radio with lots of Patriots stuff. LISTEN HERE […]
The Patriots just won their 6th Super Bowl! Since I have no shot at sleeping any time soon, I think I will bang out a few “takes” about our World Champion New England Patriots and Super Bowl XLIII. Next to the win over the Rams 17 years ago, this was the most surprising big game […]
It still knocks me for a 10-yard loss in the reality check arena when other fans whine and belly ache about a certain dominant team because they’re so jealous and bitter about its current success. How the heck did my team — a former laughing stock I knew better as “The Patsies” while growing up […]
Looking back from the end of the last Superbowl, to today, this just might be the most impressive Patriots season (year) of all time. Not the best season. We had 16-0. Not the most surprising season. That was the 11-5 year of 2001-2002 resulting in the first Super Bowl win. But if you look at […]
