Every $19.95 invention grabbed my attention. If I buy now, I can get my offer doubled. However, this offer is not available in stores! From age 5 to 14, almost every time an ad came on TV with an incredible idea, my dad would say, “If the offer is too good to believe, don’t.” Dad, […]
Maybe if Patriot fans hear the entire Deflategate episode transposed into an entirely different topic, they will better understand just how lost they are.
Doug & Wolf 2015 Mock Draft Presented by Bud Light! Held at the Tilted Kilt Pub & Eatery in Tempe. Special Thanks to Just Sports for providing our GM's with their team gear.
What a great weekend of family, football and golf. Here’s my observations from Thursday through Monday. Tweet me @doug987FM to tell me what you saw. ASU STUDENTS: Amazing. Almost 10,000 for a game against Weber State. Although the attendance from adults is sad, the future is bright with so many students making ASU football important. […]
“We should beat this team.” “I don’t like playing in these games because you can’t win for losing.” “I expect us to go out there and dominate.” These are not the normal comments from a college head football coach. We’ve learned over the last two and a half years that coach Todd Graham is not […]
When you go to a baseball game and sit in the front row, you know there’s a solid chance a ball will come your way. That’s exactly what happened for one young fan at the Arizona Diamondbacks-Washington Nationals game on Wednesday. Unfortunately for the kid, who was wearing a Bryce Harper shirt, a Harper foul […]
A lot to see at football practice and a football deity in attendance. HOWARD MUDD: It seemed like it was the same thing for 400 years. Tom Moore as the offensive coordinator and Howard Mudd as the offensive line coach leading the great Peyton Manning in Indianapolis. I don’t think a lot of the lineman […]
Here are my observations from Wednesday at Arizona Cardinals camp: TERRY MCDONOUGH I got the chance to talk to the Cardinals assistant GM for an extended period of time. Smart yet personable. So strange is the personality of a good scout. You have to own amazing confidence because it is a job that includes colossal […]
PATRICK PETERSON: I didn’t see anything out of the ordinary from Patrick but there’s no way around the fact that his contract is an attention-getter. For the remaining 25 people still saying “same old Cardinals,” can we finally put that to bed? LOGAN THOMAS: I have been to four of the five practices. I have […]
If you can, you’ve got to go. My family vacation was to Washington, D.C. I sat down with my wife in a dark room looking at the actual Star-Spangled Banner. We cruised up the Potomac to Mt. Vernon and saw the home of the only man in world history to successfully lead a revolution without […]
There actually was some important news that came out of the San Francisco 49ers’ minicamp, according to a report on ESPN.com. No offense to Vernon Davis and Alex Boone and their contract holdouts, but Greg Roman hinted the offense has gone through a change during the offseason. Why is that important? Greg Roman is the […]
Here’s a crazy opinion: the Arizona Diamondbacks are winning more than they should be. It’s crazy because everyone feels down about the D-backs, but the truth is that they’re a .500 team minus April. In no way is there an implication that April should be wiped from the record books. The 9-22 record is real […]
W.W.Y.D.? If you were running the Arizona Cardinals draft, what would you have done? I have always thought it was silly to offer up draft grades. It’s always a wasted exercise because in order to give a grade, you must know more than the person you’re grading. Rarely do students teach teachers so why should […]
Once again, Doug and Wolf invited 32 “general managers” to Tilted Kilt in downtown Phoenix for their annual mock draft. And once again, there were plenty of surprises. Here’s how it all went down Friday morning… Pick D&W Listener Team Player Picked 1. Kevin McGraw Houston Texans Jadeveon Clowney, DE, South Carolina 2. Nick Kieffer […]
Admit it. You’ve been in your car, driving in morning rush hour traffic, and you’ve channeled your inner-Ron Wolfley. “Are you talking to me…,” you’ve belted out at the top of your lungs, unleashing your pre-workday angst. Wolf does it every morning on Doug and Wolf, and recently, he did it live. Arizona Sports 98.7 […]
The fourth annual Arizona Sports Cornhole Cup, benefiting the Prostate On-Site Project, ended with great success on Saturday in downtown Phoenix. The sold out event with 128 teams played nearly 1,000 games of Cornhole and finished with the crowning of Shake & Bake, who took first place. The winners beat Watch em Drop in the […]
Rashard Mendenhall chose traveling and writing over playing in the NFL. This is not only his prerogative but his God-given right. How he retired and why he retired are as unique and convoluted as the 26-year-old’s talent. There was no press conference announcing his retirement. He wrote a column about why he was retiring that […]
Jules Tompkins of ArizonaSports.com reports, not counting pitchers, Kirk Gibson has had 392 different lineups in 486 games. The Arizona Diamondbacks manager takes a lot of heat for this but I don’t think it’s warranted. First off, good managers of good teams juggle lineups just as much, if not more. Tampa Bay Rays manager Joe […]
If it seems as if every move Rob Ford makes these days is on video, you’re probably right. This one is different than the Toronto mayor admitting to using drugs or saying outlandish things to the press, yet, some may argue it’s just as ridiculous. And if you’re an American it may sting a little, […]
Owners, presidents, general managers, athletic directors and coaches. Newsmakers of Arizona. It’s Doug & Wolf’s Newsmakers Week on Arizona Sports now on 98.7 FM. The schedule starts on Monday with multiple key decision makers in the Valley, including the Phoenix Suns’ Jeff Hornacek and Arizona Diamondbacks’ Kevin Towers before finishing up with Arizona Cardinals general […]
Championship weekend is over and although the deposed have been vanquished to the land of nothingness, the victors are fresh in our minds — alive in our collective cognition. And the inevitable happens without hesitation or reservation for what was; the narrative immediately focuses on what will be: Who will win Super Bowl 48? There […]
We had a little fun on Question and Declare. I wanted you to weigh in on a Doug & Wolf argument. We want to have Kurt Warner on the show next week. Wolf began to text him at 5:30 in the morning. I freaked. There’s no way you should ever text someone unless you’re 100 […]
1) SEAHAWKS (1): already clinched a playoff…gets the #1 seed (home-field advantage until Super Bowl) by beating Arizona or if 49ers lose on MNF to Atlanta 2) PANTHERS (3): clinches playoff if they win…also clinches if 49ers lose to Atlanta and Cards lose in Seattle…can not clinch division this week…needs to win out to earn […]
