Dallas, TX: RF Sports Radio is transitioning from a radio show and website to a sports network. President of Rehsif Media, Rodney Fisher, is excited about the new approach to sports media.

You will also be able to watch live sporting events in the near future. That is the second phase of the network." The video streaming kicks off in late October when RFSN will stream the pregame and postgame press conferences for the Dallas Mavericks. There is also a boxing match scheduled for late October.

Is Vince Young's NFL Career Over?

Image
No quarterback in recent memory comes to mind that has been cut from 3 NFL teams after having a winning record including getting into the playoffs. Add in the fact that the player is under the age of 30 and you really have to dig deep. Vince Young finds himself again searching for a NFL roster spot. The 3rd overall pick in the 2006 draft by the Tennessee Titans after coming off an epic performance in the Rose Bowl beating USC now finds his future in question. Will he be a starter again? No doubt Young has the physical talent to get back to his pro bowl form, but it seems that his work ethic remains uncertain. The thought of being cut for Tavaris Jackson seems ridiculous on paper. Why would you not want Young? It is time for VY to get football back in focus. Over the last 3 years Young has made headlines for his "dream team" comment, his nightclub brawl in Dallas, and now for being cut once again. It is time to change the tune in the jukebox. I expect Vince to get anothe...

Fantasy Football Picks and Sleepers

by Ryan Henry Fantasy football season is here. I’m here to give you a leg up on your competition. Last year was the year of the quarterbacks. Aaron Rodgers, Drew Brees and Tom Brady all put up insane, record-breaking numbers, and if you were fortunate to have one of these three players on your teams, you probably were competing for a championship. This year is going to be more of the same. For these recommendations, I am assuming standard scoring with 4 points per passing touchdown. The reason why quarterbacks were so dominant was because of a term called comparative advantage. Essentially, if you were able to draft any one of those three quarterbacks (Rodgers, Brees or Brady) or even to a lesser extent Cam Newton or Matthew Stafford, then you were at least 60 points better than everyone else. This year, if you aren’t able to get one of those 5, then you might as well wait. There is a lot of value later in the draft. If you draft later in the first round, after Rodgers, Brady...

Baseball and PEDs: Further Down the Rabbit Hole

Image
by Ryan Henry After Melky Cabrera, San Francisco didn’t just lose their best hitter and the only person who could cover for Buster Posey in their lineup. They also lost a legitimate MVP candidate. Baseball also came face-to-face with performance enhancing drugs (PEDs) yet again. Not even two weeks later, Oakland A’s ace Bartolo Colon tested positive for PEDs. Their punishment? Each was suspended for 50 games. This seems almost too fitting as Barry Bonds, Mark McGwire, Sammy Sosa and Roger Clemens all become eligible for the Hall of Fame. Eventually, baseball is going to have to admit that PEDs are a problem and that putting a stop to their use is more important than losing one of their stars. Cabrera before his suspension. Courtesy of mlb.com First of all, 50 games for a first offense is simply not enough of a penalty to actually cut down on PED use. During a radio interview with ESPN Radio New York, Victor Conte, the founder of BALCO, said that “as much as 50 percent” ...
