’09-’10 Philadelphia Flyers: Cup Half Empty


Sports

I was trying to go to sleep last night and all I could think about is I have now seen the Flyers lose in the Stanley Cup finals twice. I have seen the Phillies lose in the World Series twice. I have seen the Eagles lose the Superbowl once and I have seen the Sixers […]

2010 NFL Draft Times Suck


Sports

Oh yeah, now that the 2010 NFL Draft is over, I just wanted to thank Roger Goodell again for completely ruining it. I was able to watch Round 1 because I flew out of work and raced to Buffalo Wild Wings but I never had a chance with Rounds 2 and 3 since they were […]

2010 Phillies Baseball


Sports

Oh yeah… don’t forget about this one. Roy Halladay takes the mound tomorrow as the Phillies start their season, and their quest to reclaim their throne, against the Nationals down in Washington. President Barack Obama is throwing out the first pitch but the pitching I’m most waiting for can only come from one man. The […]

Farewell Donovan McNabb… the Easter Trade


Sports

Holy crap this is tough. I sit down in front of the TV to watch the first baseball game of the year and eat myself some Easter dinner and flashing before my eyes is the news break to end all news breaks. Donovan McNabb has been traded to the Washington Redskins. For a 2nd round […]

2010 NCAA Tournament Day 4


Sports

Didn’t think the weekend would end like this. West Virginia -6, check, Cornell +4, super check, Texas A&M -1.5?… It had to come down to the final seconds of the final game of the weekend. It just had to. At halftime, Texas A&M had this game in the bag. Up by 7, seemed to be […]

2010 NCAA Tournament Day 3


Sports

Guy… do I love money? You know I do. Day 3 started like any other. 1 and done thanks to Butler. It was exciting in the end but Butler just didn’t care enough to cover. Hell, they barely cared enough to win. We were so hype on Kentucky and Kansas State though that we couldn’t […]

2010 NCAA Tournament Day 2


Sports

2 out of 3 ain’t bad. Unless you parlay. Xavier, check, Mizzou, check, Siena… ouch. They had this upset at the half and then they completely fell apart for most of the 2nd. They almost clawed back in but they were just down by too much at one point. Got it back down to 3 […]

2010 NCAA Tournament Day 1


Sports

Thank you Murray State out of Murray (which is obviously only a city), Kentucky. You boys did good. We had #13 Murray State over #4 Vanderbilt, #2 Kansas State -16 over #15 North Texas and #10 Saint Mary’s over #7 Richmond. At times, all nail biters, however check and mate. Our morning card was blown […]

Weekly Fantasy Rant ’09 Game, Set and Match


Fantasy

Forget about week 16. Won it with 161.96 points. Forget about week 17. None of that really matters. What matters is that the Galapagos Tortoise once again displayed its dominance by putting on a clinic and bringing home the gold in the “Football’s Like My Best Thing” fantasy football league for 2009. Carried by a […]
