Just Another F*cked Up Morning
Is it so hard to pay for gas these days? Tell me, why does going to a gas station to get gas, buy an energy drink (my form of coffee), and a newspaper have to be more difficult than robbing a bank? All I wanted to do today was get to work and do what I had to do, but sure enough, the borderline retarded gas station attendant who reeked of [...]
KD Is Loving The NBA Lockout
Despite the NBA owners and player's union scheduled to meet this week, there is virtually no hope that any progress will be made towards a new CBA. It's depressing for a hoops junkie like myself, but seeing clips of the Melo League vs the Goodman League is enough of a fix in an otherwise depressing summer in the NBA. The competition is [...]
Bears Secondary Is A Major Concern
I never put too much stock in fake football games, but the play of the Bears secondary is disconcerting when you know that the Falcons, Saints & Packers are lurking on the team's schedule before October. Granted, the Bears haven't been game planning so far, but they're far too talented to not thoroughly dominate a hapless Titans team [...]
Entourage Review: The Big Bang
When "The Big Bang" Entourage episode started off by referencing Brandon Walsh, 90210 and incorporated the line "hey, there's my mother fucker," I figured it had to be what now passes for a quality 30 minutes of my time. I was pleasantly surprised by the 3rd to last episode of the series, and that's a win when it comes to this show [...]
Weather Channel Cocks
I know Hurricane Irene has been a bitch for people to deal with on the east coast, but just imagine being the guy wearing goggles trying to do his job in the midst of this insane weather? It's bad enough that they stuck the Horace Grant wannabe out there in the middle of a fucking hurricane, but here comes the guy trying to reenact Will [...]
Clown Kenney Needs To Go Too
I was done with the myth of Crane Kenney the second I heard he found a Greek priest dumb enough to come to sprinkle holy water in the Cubs dugout before the '08 playoffs. It's asinine enough that fans have been forced to believe in curses when it comes to pro sports' biggest travesty, but members of the organization too? Sweet. Yeah, because [...]
Roy Williams Is A Buster
Imagine signing a 1 year $1.5 million dollar contract as an NFL player who is 29 years-old and looking for one last big contract before your body gives out from the rigors of professional football. If you have even an ounce of pride and dignity in your body, you would most likely attack that "don't tell me, show me" 1 year contract with a [...]
What If Kobe Took His Own Path?
As I was doing some reading on Kobe Bryant in honor of his 33rd birthday, I got to thinking. I know, that's horrific news for anyone I speak with on the regular, but something hit me. As I was reading and watching some of 24's classic games on YouTube, I asked myself, "what if Kobe Bean Bryant never wanted to be like Mike?" Before you ask, no, [...]
Entourage Motherf*cker Review
Do you remember when Entourage was a comedy? Damn, do I miss those days. It's actually a pretty impressive feat to turn one of TV's best comedy's into a middling drama in it's final season. Make no mistake, I have enjoyed the majority of this final season, but most of it has been as annoying as hearing Mrs. Ari bitch and moan every week. I [...]
Now Ricketts’ Work Begins
What do you know, Tom Ricketts has balls after all. Sure, he wasted his first two years of ownership by allowing a baseball imbecile to masquerade as a general manager, but who's counting? I am, that's who. Don't get me wrong, this is a great day for the future of the Cubs organization. The stone aged Jim Hendry was mercifully fired after [...]
