On the same weekend that the NFL is insulting its fan base with a farce of a Pro-Bowl, the NHL is once again showing the other leagues how All-Star weekend should be done. But despite the intense awesomeness on display at the All-Star Game and skills challenges this weekend, the NHL's annual All-Star Weekend was only the second most thrilling thing to hit the sports world this weekend. Read on.
#5 Liverpool outs Manchester United
This much we know for sure -- Manchester United will not be winning the FA Cup this year. A week after knocking out the defending champs,

Basketball, it is your time to shine. With a total of exactly one event scheduled between the combined NFL, MLB, NHL, and NASCAR, this is basketball's time in the spotlight.
And while they have no games for us to preview this weekend, how about a little love for unranked Florida State University for knocking off both #3 UNC and #4 Duke in the past week?
#5 San Antonio Spurs at Dallas Mavericks
The Southwest Division is up for grabs with four of the five teams within a half a game of the lead (sorry, New Orleans). Two of the contenders will face

Christmas Weekend Preview

Merry Christmas from Buzzer Eagle! Of all the presents Santa’s got on his sleigh, there are none we’re looking forward to more than these 5:
#5 New York at New York
There’s something fascinating about a matchup between the two teams from New York. Something deeply insulting about having to use the visitor’s locker room in your own stadium. Something special about bragging rights in the Big Apple. Sunday the New York Giants travel to Metlife Stadium, normally their home turf, as the visitors to play the New York Jets. Both teams were embarrassed last week. The Jets were blown out

Thanksgiving Top 5 Preview

Happy Thanksgiving! The Top Five sporting events that our panel of experts expect to be most thankful for this weekend are:
#5 Tebow's Proving Ground, Part Five
Tim Tebow's doubters this week included John Elway and Jake Plummer. Somehow, I don't think this kid will ever be able to shut his detractors up. No matter what he does, they'll still be there, saying something like "Yeah, he won three Super Bowls, two MVP trophies, and went to the Pro Bowl six times, but he just isn't an NFL quarterback."
So far, Tebow took a team that was 1-4 without him and lead

NHL Season & More
by Ronald A. Rowe October 6th, 2011 | Football, Hockey, Weekend Preview
The saying goes that when a door closes, a window opens. Or something like that. Anyway, as there may not be any baseball this weekend - depending on how long the divisional rounds go - the NHL regular season begins Friday to fill the void. See how it all works out for the best? The Top 5 Sporting Events we're looking forward to this weekend:
#5 Oklahoma vs. Texas
Texas is ranked #11 in the land. They'll put their perfect record on the line against #3 Oklahoma. The Longhorns' stingy defense, allowing just better than 12 points a game, will have
