1st Half Beisbol on the Mind
By Adrian Garcia | MLB, Sports on the Mind, Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim, Los Angeles Dodgers, ColumnSomebody go yard, por favor!
Baseball has changed right before our eyes… and it’s dragging ass!! Admit it! I’m glad no one is on the Barry Crunch, but it’s also no fun watching bloop singles, broken bat/attempted manslaughter infield hits, “Juan Pierre throws” to the cutoff man, and unofficial no-hitter losses.
In SoCal, it is especially de […]

The Chargers Stay in San Diego… On the Mind
By Adrian Garcia | San Diego Chargers, Sports on the Mind, ColumnLos An-gel-es Super Chargers…Los An-ge-les Chargers!!
Nope…that version of the SuperChargers song doesn’t sound right. Something about the way the syllables lay out. Unless, of course, you’re a businessman.
I am glad to see a gentleman like Ed Roski, who thinks big and is a man of vision, at least form a concrete plan to […]

The Chargers Draft on the Mind
By Adrian Garcia | San Diego Chargers, Sports on the Mind, ColumnSomebody pinch me!!
I must be dreaming, the San Diego Chargers have so much talent, they actually can go Bobby Beathard style and draft the best player available? This is what I’ve been kicking this around in my mind as the NFL Draft draws closer. To the point distraction. Seriously. For example, Friday night […]

Divisional Playoffs and San Diego on the Mind
By Adrian Garcia | San Diego Chargers, Sports on the Mind, ColumnThe NFL playoffs, divisional round. Can’t wait. Chargers vs. Colts. Packers vs. Seahawks. Cowboys vs. Giants, and Patriots vs. Jaguars. They all have drama, they all have hype….
…and they all have ties to San Diego.
In Dallas, everyone’s been talking “Cabo” this and “Cabo” that, thanks to Tony Romo and Yoko Simpson. Apparently Yoko’s parents just […]

Hey, Raiders fan!
Yeah, you in the Skeletor mask! You, under the Darth Vader helmet, wearing a Todd Marinovich or Van McElroy jersey, hiding in the bushes like a munchkin upon Dorothy’s arrival in Oz. Come out! Don’t be afraid. I know you are embarrassed, but stand tall, will you?
What the hell happened […]

Michael Turner Should Be on the Front Burner, Not the Back
By Adrian Garcia | San Diego Chargers, Sports on the Mind, ColumnChargers on the Mind…
Despite working their way through the Ravens last week, San Diego’s season has been cloudy at times, rainy at others. And too often lost in the fog that is Norv Turner’s mind has been Michael Turner, whose 2007 season has been a drought.
LT often has had little room to run and […]

A-Rod? No Gracias!… On the Mind
By Adrian Garcia | Sports on the Mind, Los Angeles Dodgers, ColumnHe’s big, he’s bad, he puts up gigantic numbers. He plays a position where the Dodgers would have upgraded in talent by miles.
Now he’s gone.
A-Rod is back with the Yankees. Well, pull your nose from your hankies, because I have news for you.
A-Rod staying out of SoCal? Call it a blessing.
Both […]

Fire Norv Turner, Bench Philip Rivers On the Mind
By Adrian Garcia | San Diego Chargers, Sports on the Mind, ColumnFire Norv Turner. It’s that simple.
How is it possible that Turner inherits 11 returning starters on offense, group that includes the most talented running back the NFL has seen over the last 20 years (LaDanian Tomlinson), and the best tight end in football (Antonio Gates). Heck, even the back up RB, Michael Turner, would be […]

Pennant for your Thoughts, and Lightning Strikes at Mid Day
By Adrian Garcia | San Diego Chargers, Sports on the Mind, ColumnHay bendito!! (Espanol for Holy Smoke…the only way I can describe what the hell is going on with the Rockies.) They Coors Canaveral’d their way to the Fall Classic, using brooms so fine they’d make a Halloween witch jealous. Yet the only thing Matt Holiday and the Rockies are worried about is how their fantasy […]
