Super Kaner
This is why Patrick Kane was voted to the all-star game. He is a skating highlight reel, and fans love to see Chicago's 88 do his thing. Kaner won the NHL's breakaway challenge by doing a Clark Kent/Superman routine. What I loved about it, was that it was Kaner having fun and entertaining the fans... "Our PR guy, Brandon Faber, I [...]
WWE Royal Rumble Preview
If you're anything like me, you despise how Vince McMahon and the WWE have watered down and murdered the anticipation of pay-per-view events. It would be a miserable proposition to try and create storylines for a pay-per-view each month, but that's Vince's way of reaffirming to his "WWE universe" that it is really is "all about the [...]
A Season Defining Trip
The Bulls annual circus trip was always the unofficial end of any hope during the early 2000's. It was easy to have blind faith in those young Bulls teams like the '02-'03 squad with Jamal Crawford, Jay Williams, Eddy Curry & Tyson Chandler. You wanted to believe that they could compete against NBA competition in hostile environments, but [...]
Breaking Down The K Love Deal
Leave it to Timberwolves GM David Kahn and penny pinching owner Glen Taylor to somehow not fully commit to their franchise player. I get it, a 4 year $62 million extension for Kevin Love is a hell of a lot of money, but Minnesota isn't exactly a destination city for NBA stars. And if your star player wants the full 5 year max extension, why [...]
Unprotected
It’s obvious that Jay Cutler was unprotected on the field, but now we see he’s unprotected off the field too. It looks like Jay is going to be a baby daddy, and he is extremely excited about it. Now that his engagement is back on with Kristin Cavallari; she needed to lock it down this time by doing the good ‘ol baby trick. Jay is the one [...]
Don’t Celebrate Paterno
What is it about the death of legendary figures that brings out the idiotic traits in so many people? Are they that indifferent to what said legend should be remembered for? My guess is they don't care. All is forgotten when someone who aided and abetted a serial child rapist dies. Not surprisingly, the eulogizing crew aka all of Paterno's [...]
Niners Show Unity In Defeat
Football makes us crazy. As fans, so many of us live and die with our teams' successes and failures. It's hard to explain to those who aren't as fanatical about America's pastime, but for guys like me, it's a way of life. And in Sunday night's NFC Championship, I felt a world wind of emotions as the 49ers gave away a trip to the Super [...]
Conference Championship Picks
Last Friday, I wrote about how the NFL's Divisional Round was the last great football weekend because it was the last time fans would feel like we had a full slate of games on top. And true to it's word, the final 8 lived up to that premise. Well, 7 of the final did. Let us not forget the ultimate reality check that kicked the Broncos [...]
Sammi’s Finest 8.0
Sammi’s Finest 8.0: These offbeat briefs are extremely overdue and packed with porn, flaming tampons, and colons… and I’m not talking about the punctuation. Want to win a colonoscopy by Ozzie Osbourne? Oh God, can you even imagine him telling you to bend over in that voice of his? That’s pretty frightening. All joking aside [...]
The Mecca Of What?
There are few things more annoying than sports myths. Where they come from, and how they start is anyone's guess. You know what I'm talking about, right? Utter silliness like the Cubs tremendous history stands out and makes me instantly nauseous. There are others like the St. Louis Cardinals having the best fans in baseball. Really, says who? [...]
