The Fighting Ungers' Blog, sponsored by<br> Zen West Tex-Mex GrillMarc Unger and Andrew Unger give you sports with a heavy emphasis on comedy. Outrageous and sometimes controversial, check out "The Fighting Ungers" every Saturday morning from 8 a.m. to 11 a.m.10 College Football Predictions You Should Know About...- August 30, 2007 Preseason, shmeeseason... college football STARTS TONIGHT! It counts folks. Granted there's not much in the way of marquee matchups tonight but LSU-MIss St. could be interesting for the first half before the Tigers realize they're in the hunt for a national championship and put a whooping on Mississippi State. On Saturday, of course, you've got Notre Dame vs. Georgia Tech plus a game you won't want to miss- California vs. Tennessee. Finally, the wait is over! Here's some predictions for the...http://www.wnst.net/WNSTBaltimoreSportsRadio/tabid/36/EntryID/3142/Default.aspx Andrew's NCAA Football "Pick Of The Day"- August 30, 2007 The line in the game between LSU and Mississippi State has moved up a couple of points since its' opener. However, the number still seems fairly reasonable given the class difference between these teams.Indeed, the Tigers have absolutely owned the Bulldogs, going 11-1 straight up and 10-2 against the spread the past dozen meetings. That includes a 48-17 beat-down last year and a 37-7 thrashing in 2005. The previous year was even worse as LSU routed Mississippi State 51-0 in 2004. In fact, the...http://www.wnst.net/WNSTBaltimoreSportsRadio/tabid/36/EntryID/3139/Default.aspx Marc's Early NFL Musings- August 22, 2007 As we move towards the start of the NFL season I thought I'd enlighten all of you with some early predictions. Here's a few items you can mark down as fact- until I'm proven to be COMPLETELY wrong. - Daunte Culpepper will be a serious candidate for "Comeback Player of the Year." - The New Orleans Saints will NOT be as good as they were last year. - The Green Bay Packers will make the playoffs. - QB David Carr will take the starting job away from Jake Delhomme in Carolina. - The Ravens will...http://www.wnst.net/WNSTBaltimoreSportsRadio/tabid/36/EntryID/3082/Default.aspx Ravens Exposed Last Night- August 21, 2007 Amid all the hoopla surrounding black jerseys, national television coverage and Ray Lewis' prancing there's one thing the Ravens starters forgot to do last night -- play good football.Too many guys played with an almost "punk" mentality.Scowling and banging helmets is fine but at the end of it all, the New York Giants beat them up at the line of scrimmage.Yes, there were starters out -- for both teams. However, with the exception of Jared Gaither, the offensive line (the biggest concern in my...http://www.wnst.net/WNSTBaltimoreSportsRadio/tabid/36/EntryID/3064/Default.aspx Brilliant Fantasy Drafting & Adding An Hour- August 16, 2007 I have good news and bad news. If you like listening to Andrew andme on Saturday morning then the good news is we're adding an hour to the show. Starting this week we'll be on from 8am-11am. If you find Andrew and I repulsive then, of course, the bad news is we're adding an hour to the show! I'd like to tell you that we added the hour due to overwhelming demand on the part of the listeners. Except I'd be lying. Truth is, Andrew just wanted an excuse to get out of his house earlier so that he...http://www.wnst.net/WNSTBaltimoreSportsRadio/tabid/36/EntryID/3032/Default.aspx Andrew's "Pick of the Day"- August 16, 2007 The Tigers are a +140 dog today with Verlander (12-4, 3.58 ERA) against the Yankees with Mussina. Mike's had two solid starts in a row but has been HORRIBLE at times this season. He singlehandedly destroyed my fantasy team and I was forced to drop him. Perhaps he's back to being the Mike Mussina were used to seeing but my money is going on Detroit. Vegas has made the Tigers too big a dog. Verlander's coming off his strongest outing since the All-Star break on Saturday, when he held the A's to...http://www.wnst.net/WNSTBaltimoreSportsRadio/tabid/36/EntryID/3030/Default.aspx The Orioles and The Fans- A Very Bad Marriage- August 12, 2007 On Friday night Brian Roberts said things that really ticked some people off. A few of the hosts at this station, Mark Suchy and Drew Forrester among them, really took exception to Roberts' indictment of the fans and their failure to support the Orioles. His tirade came on a night when the Orioles put together a terrific win against the Red Sox amidst a Camden Yards crowd that, once again, was turned into Fenway Park South. I'm sure as a player it's tough to look in the stands and see the...http://www.wnst.net/WNSTBaltimoreSportsRadio/tabid/36/EntryID/3004/Default.aspx Pac Man Jones PLUS Things in Life That Are Overrated- August 11, 2007 On tomorrow morning's show Andrew and I plan to cover a lot of college football, the Ravens, the Orioles recent moves and Pacman's foray into pro wrestling. Great move Adam. No, really, I mean is there a better way to show the NFL that you really care about your image and want to clean things up than by stepping into the ring with a bunch of juiced up maniacs But, hey, I would imagine quite a few of the women in pro wrestling know their way around a stripper's pole so at least he has that to...http://www.wnst.net/WNSTBaltimoreSportsRadio/tabid/36/EntryID/2996/Default.aspx Andrew's "Pick of the Day"- August 7, 2007 Boof Bonser and the Twins go for a little payback tonight from a loss with the same pitching matchup last week at home.Play Minnesota at KC vs the Royals. Back on August 1, Brian Bannister got the best of the Twinkies in the Homer Dome. The former USC Trojan limited Minnesota to three earned runs and eight hits in seven frames as Kansas City pulled off the 5-3 upset. It's time for the Twins to grab a little payback. On the hill for Minnesota will be right-hander Boof Bonser. Yes, Mr. Bonser...http://www.wnst.net/WNSTBaltimoreSportsRadio/tabid/36/EntryID/2965/Default.aspx Bonds, Ravens PLUS Marc's Baseball Bet of the Day- August 5, 2007 I missed it. After all of the talk and all of the anticipation I missed Bonds' tying home run. I heard it was a monster shot. That's okay I guess. I didn't see Aaron tie the record either. However I did see him break it and I'll be watching every at bat, I don't care where I am or what I'm doing, until Bonds breaks the record. Do yourselves a favor, seriously, make it a point to be near a television for this historic event. I know a lot of you are angry about the steroids. Others despise Bonds..http://www.wnst.net/WNSTBaltimoreSportsRadio/tabid/36/EntryID/2957/Default.aspx |
