Why does it always seem like the worst things in life happen in the middle of the night? I am pretty gosh darned low right now, and writing is the only things that I can think of to do in order to perhaps help me sleep. You see, I have had a tragedy in […]
The funniest thing happened to me today. This is possibly the funniest thing to ever happen to me. I got an e-mail from Craig Schaller Yeah. How weird is that? My first thought was about that Seinfeld episode, where Jerry and George and Kramer too I think, had their doppelgangers. It was bizarro world. […]
Well folks, here I am, out of the Penalty Box, and on my own. What a week it’s been! One week ago today, I wrote a blog that changed my life. A blog that made me famous, or perhaps infamous is the better term. When I wrote it, I knew it was on the line […]

There is one thing I find interesting about this Super Bowl. I have heard some analysts mention it, but I have not heard it made a focal point like I believe it should be. What I am referring to is that both teams represent the only two states in the US nation that have legalized […]
For those of us sports fans who were there, it was an indelible moment. For those of us who remember, you can tell exactly where you were when it happened. You know where you were and what you were doing when the Americans beat the Russians. If you are like me, you probably remember where […]
Yes, it’s hard to believe folks, but another four years have rolled by and once again, it’s time for the OlympicWinter Games. This year they are in Sochi, which is a little skiing town in Russia. The good folks in Sochi were so excited to get these games, they agreed to provide running water for […]
Well sports fans….welcome to the worst time of the sports year. From the day after the Super Bowl ends to the day the NCAA tournament begins, this is where sports fans enter sports “no mans land”. It is a yearly purgatory that we sports fans have to suffer through each and every year. This […]
