Liotta: Giants’ Zito is trying, but that’s not enough
- It was the year of the first transatlantic phone call, the year when radio frequencies were regulated for the first time. Charles Lindbergh completed the first flight across the Atlantic Ocean from New York to Paris that year.
Liotta: Giants’ first month not all April showers
- I have to give the Giants credit. I didn’t think they’d bring a single moment of baseball bliss to the Bay Area this season. Or next. Maybe not even in the one after that.
Liotta: Mock drafts have now become mockery itself
- That rumble you’re feeling while reading today’s Examiner is none other than the NFL draft, a once-orderly process for replenishing the league’s rosters that has grown into a two-day, seismic media extravaganza that has blown off the Richter scale.

Liotta: Star power dims for Bay Area fans
- Suddenly, being a big Bay Area sports star doesn’t look like much fun. In fact, it looks like it is going to be downright painful the next couple of years.
In the end, minutes took toll on Baron
- Success at the highest levels of the NBA begins with a team’s best player being able to impose his will upon games. Score the key baskets. In the biggest games. At crunch time.

Liotta: Getting down to playoff nitty gritty
- A week into April, and the Warriors’ most critical body of basketball work this season is yet to come. With all the games they’ve already won, who would have thought it would come down to this?

Liotta: Giants fans, it’s time to pay the piper
- Giants fans, welcome to Pay-Up Season No. 1. Time to balance the books, call in the debt. Call it the balloon payment for the Giants’ commitment the last five years to the Greatest Show in Baseball.
Liotta: Only Celtics dent West's dominance
- While it is obvious that West is best, the NBA Finals may not be in as much trouble as it might look.
Liotta: He’s Tom Seaver — without the support
- I’m worried about Matt Cain. Because it wasn’t supposed to be this way.

Liotta: Bonds' retirement party won't look like Favre's
- Brett Favre retires, and I think of Barry Bonds. What a difference. Favre announced this week in an emotional news conference that he’s done with football after 16 seasons with the Green Bay Packers, during which time he broke enough of the NFL’s passing records to be considered a sure-thing Hall of Famer.
Liotta: La Russa challenges baseball’s orthodoxy
- I’m making it official. I can’t wait for the upcoming baseball season.
Liotta: Ability to win ballgames sets Warriors’ Davis apart
- I didn’t know this about myself until the other night, but I believe Baron Davis stands shoulder to shoulder with the most dangerous players in the game of basketball.
