The Albany Patroons are coming back to Albany and they're hoping the 3rd time is a charm.  An announcement is planned for today that will bring the historic franchise back to Albany's Washington Armory.  I'm excited, as I'm literally a 60 second walk doorstep to their home court, but the question is always the same with the Patroons: Will anyone attend these games?

I've played the game since I was 6-years old and as I celebrate my birthday this weekend, it's hard not to think of Phil Sweeney who won't get another birthday and won't play another softball game. For those unfamiliar, Phil, who passed away at just 63-years old became suddenly ill while playing the game he loved. He had played softball the majority of his life, just like me. This weekend, the tou

The Albany Devils might be playing their last games at the Times Union Center, but it was announced on ESPN Radio 104.5 The Team earlier this week that a few new sports teams will be calling Albany their home. Capital Region sports fans have been lucky to witness some awesome sports moments at the TU Center that were big stories here locally and nationally...

Like a lot of boys growing up I played a lot of different sports like football, basketball, baseball and I even wrestled. However their is one sport that I regret not playing. I mean, I've seen The Mighty Ducks. How hard could it be?

With the announcement of the Devils leaving Albany, you can't help but remember all the teams before them that did the same.

Have you ever gone to work the day after the Super Bowl and thought to yourself... really?? I mean it's already a Monday, but it's so much worse because you ate every last bite of buffalo chicken dip and you drank literally all the beer and you stayed up way too late waiting for a wardrobe malfunction...

When we started this team just over a year ago, the goal was to have fun. Some of us were coming from a team that wasn't playing as a team, with that came a lot of losses and a lot of unnecessary drama. The finger kept getting pointed and the fun was taken out of it. After 25+ years of playing the game, I honestly thought, maybe I was done.

Tuesday night kicked off the NBA season and while I know plenty of Football fans, I'm a huge fan of Basketball. I couldn't wait for tip off and getting back into the heat of the game.

I'll start this by saying, I wasn't the best student. History wasn't my thing. I failed math...twice. I don't even know if I've ever watched anyone play chess, let alone know how to play it. What I'm trying to say is, I'm incredibly jealous of Martha Samadashvili, a 12-year old girl from Albany who is literally representing the entire country right now in this international chess championship.  Re

The sports equipment garage of local high school, Notre Dame Bishop Gibbons was set on fire and police claim it was intentional. Despite such a horrible event, acts kindness prevailed.

After the NCAA pulled the first and second round tournament games from Greensboro, NC, Times Union Center was hopeful to land those games. Sadly we did not.

I've been in sports since I was just a little kid. Because of that I've seen a lot of behavior that is just ridiculous, from parents and kids alike. It's so unfortunate because of how it changes the game at hand. But, these kids from Barcelona show sportsmanship unlike
