I've always been a Chris Cooley fan. It's kinda hard not to be, particularly following the hot pants, hot wife and all-around alpha maleness and blogging madness. That's why it was particularly disheartening to hear about Cooley going down for the year with a knee injury...

Most have probably already heard the somehow not-at-all-surprising news of Cy Young award winner Tim Lincecum getting pulled over and then "busted" with a bit of weed. Let's just say I don't disagree with most of the commenters on said article. But I'm not here...

I know in the classical sense of film and cinematography it's no epic movie. I don't care. Rounders is easily in my top 10. Just how high, I'd need some more time to determine. Teddy KGB is one of the huge reasons why. I am lucky enough to work with a team in the office...

All is right, and by that I mean horribly wrong, in the world again. The Evil Empire has re-claimed its spot atop the baseball universe, casting its belittling eye upon the downtrodden MLB masses. I have no desire to talk about this event and will now go about trying to avoid all...

This is the picture that is etched in my memory. There's something about the look. There's something bigger in that smile. It seems to say so many things - to speak such volumes about Len Bias. It has a little of his swagger. It has a little of his appreciation. It hints at...

Perhaps a Good Time for Evaluation, No?What happened to preseason evaluation? Isn't that was those draft day war rooms and training camp are for? Apparently, taking a look at your roster and "evaluating everyone" from "top to bottom" is all the rage these days...

This is Brandon Spikes. Doer of evil. Blight on all of collegiate football. Gouger of eyes. Sinner of sinners.At least that's what much of America would like you to believe. Spikes is an unconscionable thug, a "criminal" and deserving of "jail time" for trying...

So, the Knicks season opener is tonight in Miami. And, although I tend to mock the franchise and even feign an all-out split, I can't hide that I still watch - on occasion. Tonight will not be one of those instances. Nevertheless, I thought it my civic obligation to head over to...

Chances are nobody cares. For some reason though, I am really caught up on this whole JaMarcus Russell thing. Maybe it's because I'm a big college football fan and loved watching him play at LSU. Maybe it's because I saw him before the draft at an event and witnessed the...

I'm still undecided on this whole apocalyptic World Series match up. That aside, I'm slowly coming around on at least one Yankee -- his name is Nick Swisher. Sure, at one time I kinda likened him to the overrated Eric Byrnes-type who nobody could seem to shut up about. Constantly...

Not worth wasting a long diatribe on this one. Three words. Same. Old. Jets. Sure, it's a rookie quarterback. And, yes, mama (and everyone else) said there'd be days like this - although five picks against 10 completions may have even been an extreme prognostication.Bottom...

I won’t bore you with a long story, but I grew up north of New York City and have been a Colorado Buffaloes fan since the age of 12. No alumni affiliation. No relatives. No favorite Jets player who hailed from Boulder. Makes total sense, right? Well, Sal Aunese is the one who dragged...

My mother told me never to use the word "hate." Not for people, not for chores, not for events, not for nothing. She gives me a pass on this one thing -- because she f-in hates the Yankees, too.Honestly, I'm absolutely besides myself. I don't know why though when...
