As 2008 comes to a close tonight, so too does the first full year of Bay Area Sports Guy. And what a year it has been. For the website we mean, not exactly for Bay Area sports. Seattle may corner the market on sports-related angst these days, what with the Supersonics leaving for Oklahoma City of all...

As many of you have heard by now, the 49ers (the cooler ones, anyway) have been growing mustaches all week to go with the throwback uniforms they’ll be wearing on Sunday against the Redskins. It’s a logical step for the 49ers, who have been going old school in many respects. This year...

The Celtics didn’t just ruin Bill Simmons’ Christmas with their loss to the Lakers yesterday, they became the type of team that loses to the Warriors. I don’t know what’s worse these days, losing to Golden State or failing to score 100 points against them. Boston proved...

< So I got home from watching the fantastic “Slumdog Millionaire,” and in my emails was a note from the San Francisco Giants, letting me know they had done what everyone knew they would, sign Randy Johnson. I have to say it was nice of the Big Unit to accept a one-year deal from Brian...

Posted by Bay Area Sports Guy in UFC on 12 27th, 2008 | 3 Comments
By: Meg Marlin The name of Saturday’s event, UFC 92: The Ultimate 2008, is neither misleading nor an exaggeration – it really is the ultimate card of the year.  The main event is the light heavyweight championship fight, Forrest Griffin versus Rashad Evans.  As if that weren’t...

Beyond ending the Celtics’ ridiculously long winning streak, did the Lakers accomplish anything concrete in this afternoon‘s 92-83 win? Or more aptly put, should Danny Ainge already be on the phone as you read this, contacting the agents for every Senior Citizen Center (SCC) available? You’d...

If Barry Zito were a baseball team, he’d be the New York Yankees. Unbelievably expensive, and comically underwhelming on the field. The 2009 Yankees might actually be worse than last season, which most people wouldn’t assume after they went on a shopping spree over the past two weeks...

Usually doing a preview of a regular season NBA game would seem rather silly. There are 82 of them for each team, you know. This Christmas Day it’s a different story. Now that the NBA has realized the last thing fans want under their tree on December 25 is Shaq vs. Kobe, Part 84. This year...

By: Sports Girl Liz Oh the wonderful holidays. Yummy food, lights, snow football games and of course those fabulous holiday commercials. Just like in the Beach Boys Christmas song, those holiday commercials come this time each year. I know, shocking.  Each year, I think pretty much the same thing. Who...

Posted by Bay Area Sports Guy in KNBR, Mike Martz, Mike Nolan, Mike Singletary, SF 49ers, Shaun Hill on 12 21st, 2008 | 2 Comments
The 49ers’ disgusting, sloppy, utterly uninspired play throughout the first 55 minutes of today’s game against the Rams didn’t threaten to ruin their season. Mike Nolan pretty much did that over the first seven games. For Shaun Hill and Mike Singletary, losing to the Rams might...
