Titans-Chargers Preview

Today is Halloween, but it is also Sunday which means there is NFL football on. This afternoon the 5 and 2 Tennessee Titans face off against the San Diego Chargers. The Titans are an elite team in the NFL with a great, but underrated defense. The running backs for both teams are great. Chris Johnson is one of the best in the business. Mike Tolbert and Ryan Mathews are great with much talent. They may have a tough time against this defense of Tennessee. The Titans might get tricked by the rushing attack of San Diego and Philip Rivers' passing skills, or a treat with their first victory over the Chargers in a decade. My prediction is the Titans will get the treat and get the win over the west coast team.

World Series Preview

The World Series starts tonight and features the Texas Rangers and the San Francisco Giants. Game 1 is at AT&T Park on the shore of the San Francisco Bay. Cliff Lee will be on the hill tonight hurling against last year's Cy Young Award winner, Tim Lincecum. I think that not only pitching will affect the outcome of this series, but batting as well. Both teams have great batters like Josh Hamilton and Buster Posey. The catcher for the Rangers, Bengie Molina, caught for the Giants before the rise of Posey. I think he is the best scout for the Rangers during this series. He will know what situations they steal, what types of pitches the pitchers like to throw the most, and how to hit the different pitches. Nolan Ryan, who played for the Rangers most of his MLB career, has led this team stacked with young talent to the first postseason appearance in club history in his first year as the president/owner. I think it will be a close series with Texas coming out with the win. As they say, "Everything is big in Texas" including this series!
