We are just days away from the Christmas holiday, as well as the three day NHL break that comes with it. So, it got me thinking. What if we had some NHL games on Christmas? I realize the NBA already plays games on Christmas, but let’s get real here. There are plenty of people who […]

These are your Western Conference front runners at the moment. Well okay, they’re tied for that honor with Jets of Winnipeg, and they’ve played one more game than the Jets have, BUT LET THEM HAVE THIS DAMMIT. In all honesty, though, the Calgary Flames have been extremely fun to watch this season. Not only that, […]

I have a dream… That one day… These leagues will get this damn rule right. This frustrates me. Probably irrationally so, but nontheless, it irks me to no end. Why in the world home teams are allowed to wear dark colored jerseys is beyond me. I don’t understand the logic behind it. Crispy Whites Hold […]

With each team near, at, or just past the 25 game mark, we are going to take a look at the top 5 NHL forwards who have been the most impressive. Roughly 30% of the way through the season, we have had our fair share of surprises. There have also been some familiar faces perusing the […]

If you haven’t watched much of the Buffalo Sabres yet this season, I don’t blame you. Their first six games were against the same three teams, playing TOR, CBJ, and PIT twice each. They started 2-4 in those six games, and at that point, no one cared to watch anymore. A 2-4 team that feels […]

Some NHL logos are classic. They have history beyond their years. Other NHL logos are newer, flashier, and contain more secrets than we know. I’ve ranked all the current logos from top to bottom, with the major criteria being aesthetics, history, and creativity. Enough chit chat, let’s get to who looks best on the ice. […]

Maybe you’re a regular… a repeat reader of Belly Up Sports. Maybe this is your very first Belly Up article. Either way, there’s a message to be sent. Important people are getting fired. Big name guys are getting hurt. Writers are lying through their teeth. Through it all, we stand as an LLC committed to […]

The future of the Eastern Conference will go through Detroit. Mark my words. However, the Red Wings aren’t exactly causing any opposition to shake in their boots at the moment. A dismal 0-5-2 start to the season is good enough for last place in the NHL. Don’t let that deter you. Now is the time […]

Go on with your bad self, pulling for your number one team. We all have those boys we practically suit up on the couch with when they play. Sometimes, though, you need something to do in the off-season. After all, sports don’t have to be taken seriously at all times. Could it be, you’re new […]

Don’t be upset with me. The NFL gave me no choice but to jump at the opportunity to blog about this. They could have very easily scheduled the Redskins to play on Sunday like a majority of the rest of the league. But nooooo. Let’s scheduled them on Columbus Day, they said. No one will […]

This is not your fault by any means. I almost feel bad for you. The SEC Conference has been able to brainwash you into believing you are on some sort of Mount Everest of sports conferences with the use of one thing: Alabama. Or Nick Saban. It’s one of the two. I’m not sure which […]

You’ve watched three weeks of NFL football, and I can almost guarantee you’ve seen a roughing the passer flag. Not only that, but I could also guarantee at least one of them left you shaking your head. Rest assured, I’m here to ask you to be patient. This rule change may not be the worst […]

Let’s be very honest with ourselves. Golf does not need Tiger Woods. However… Exhilarating, blood-pumping, stand-and-clap-in-the-living-room golf? Now that most certainly needs Tiger Woods. It simply doesn’t exist in nearly the same fashion if/when he’s absent. No argument. With his 80th victory all-time on the PGA TOUR on Sunday, it’s safe to say Tiger will […]
