Next Time, Just Go To Boston And Talk Up A-Rod… That Will Put Things Right For Sure

May 12th, 2007 · No Comments

I am sure that with George W. being a former owner of a major league franchise, candidates are going to be beating dead horses with all the sports talk they will throw out to be liked by sports fans. During the 2000 election, Al Gore plunked then-Tigers’ utility man Robert Fick with one […]

Weenend Reading Assignment: Foot And (Or In) Mouth Disease

April 8th, 2007 · No Comments

A lot of happenings this week, and a lot of good reading for a lazy Sunday afternoon.
I have no idea what’s going on with radio shows and announcers lately. Colin Cowherd essentially breaks the law, shuts down The Big Lead, and there’s already a petition to have him fired. Don Imus thinks the […]

The Presedential Election Of College Hoops

April 2nd, 2007 · No Comments

Tonight I felt like I was watching the poll results come in from any presidential election in recent memory where it was Republican candidate I didn’t like running opposite Democratic candidate I didn’t like. On one hand, I grew up a Michigan fan, and from everything I have read, seen and experienced, tOSU […]

First Joey Porter Leaves, Now Everyone Wants Out Of Pittsburgh

March 7th, 2007 · 2 Comments

Well, I guess it all started with Bill Cowher, but you get the point: no one wants in, everyone wants out… namely Mario Lemieux and the Pittsburgh Penguins. This mess has gone from bad to worse, as Mario and crew say that they can’t work with the city anymore. Of course they have […]

Dude, Where Are The Gobstoppers At?

January 17th, 2007 · No Comments

I’m not trying to be an ass here, but I can’t help myself. The guy in this photo happens to be the President of India… my first thought upon seeing the picture was “why is there an Oompa Loompa on the front page of Yahoo?”

Day Of Atonement

December 28th, 2006 · No Comments

Today seemed to be a day of atonement for some of the more disappointing sports stories of my year.
First off, Brian Sabean and the San Francisco Giants actually made a move that makes sense, signing Barry Zito for 7 years. Zito should do well at the top of the rotation followed by Matt Cain, […]

Happy Kwanza…Oh, The Smell? I Got You Some Urine…Enjoy

December 27th, 2006 · No Comments

With Barry Bonds’s decision to return to the Giants for the 2007 MLB season seems to have lit a fire under the asses of the federal prosecutors charged with putting Barry behind bars and preventing him from breaking Hank Aaron’s home run record. Today the court ruled that the federal prosecutors can have access […]

Pardon My Use Of Double Negatives

October 31st, 2006 · No Comments

I’m not really big on writing up politics; tell someone that your favorite team is their rival and you are likely to hear an f-bomb or two. Tell someone you vote for another party and my guess is that an f-bomb might be the nicest thing said to you. So is it any […]

Barkley Wants To Be The Next Governator

July 29th, 2006 · No Comments

Following in the footsteps of Arnold and Jesse Ventura. If I am correct, the nation celebrates these men’s political careers on a daily basis. I guess that’s why Charles Barkley wants his shot to be the next celeb/athlete to go straight into a political career with no previous experience. Doesn’t Charles know […]

Somebody Call Animal Control, Ted Stevens Got Loose Again

July 15th, 2006 · No Comments

Ted Stevens (R, Alaska) is mad because his email takes too long. His answer? Tier the internet so that e-commerce and communications companies have a higher priority over the internet’s bandwith than you or I. Apparantly this website is just “clogging tubes” and makes his email slow down.
What he does not realize […]
