Super Bowl, Homeboy

January 31, 2009

Sorry for taking the week off.  Work definitely got the best of me this time around.  I’ve been meaning to come on here for a good five days now with my Super Bowl breakdown and pick, and I had spent all of last week compiling facts and stats and interesting analyses (yes, that is the [...]

I Like Pizza

January 23, 2009

Pizza is delicious.  That’s not news to anyone.  But, last night, pizza screwed me over.  Because of two different pizzas, instead of staying in bed all nice and warm, I was forced to get out of bed at 3:30 in the morning and go stand outside in 10-below zero weather for a half an hour [...]

A True Love Story Revisited

January 17, 2009

Quickly before we get settled in, it should be noted that upon being removed from my links, Bigsby has removed the sand from his man-gina and begun updating again.  He is once again back in the lineup, so check him out, but let it be known by all that another such absence will result in [...]

Breaking The Chain Of Mediocrity

January 14, 2009

Another week, another 2-2 record for yours truly.  I guess I shouldn’t complain.  With the playoffs going the way they are, I’m lucky to be .500 with my head above water.  But enough with the past.  I’ve got my eyes on the prize and I am devoted to getting the last three games correct.  This [...]

Drowning My Sorrows With Insult

January 11, 2009

It has not been a good week of sports for me folks.  Starting last Sunday, I have watched the Tar Heels lose their first game of the season, the Buckeyes lose the Fiesta Bowl in dramatic fashion, and the Titans get bounced out of the playoffs early (more on this game later in the week).  [...]

Division That Unites Us

January 8, 2009

A few quick things before we get into the NFL portion of this post.
-I am officially through the first three seasons of “How I Met Your Mother” and with the second half of season four premiering on Monday, the timing couldn’t be better.  Say what you will, but anytime someone tells you that you can’t [...]

Change We Can Believe In

January 4, 2009

With a new year comes change.  I suppose I should make some kind of mention of the small changes going on here.  First and foremost, the blogroll has gone through a slight face lift.  A couple of former links have gone the way of the Dodo.  Bergman’s link gets the axe by default since he [...]

Wildcard Weekend Preview

January 1, 2009

Before we get into anything, let me open by saying Happy New Year to each and all.  I did indeed go out on New Year’s Eve, but it was actually a pretty normal night out with the boys, so I don’t have much to report on that.  I will say, however, that it’s fun going [...]
