Happy Memorial Day weekend! Wait. I remember what several surefire intellectuals told me about wishing happiness on Memorial Day (including the weekend). OK… It’s a Happy Memorial Day weekend. Huh. No, that’s not it either. It’s only Friday. OK… The point is, whether you like to be happy […]
Atlanta Falcons’ owner Arthur Blank, with team president Rich McKay by his side, threw away the modern-day blueprints this past Monday and went against-the-norm when it comes to concession prices at stadiums. They lowered the price of beer, man! They lowered the price of (basically) all concessions, man! […]
It turned out to be a pretty solid week. Just when I thought Pizza Hut couldn’t shove one more damn thing into their crust, they went Next Level on a 2014 update, proving that there is always room for bacon. My heart murmurs for you, Pizza Hut. Keep […]
Hindsight, when looking at the Dee Gordon debacle, the 80-game suspension for PEDs, isn’t twenty-twenty. I waited through last Friday—the first full day of reckoning, post-announcement—the weekend, the NFL Draft, the Thrones, Mystery Alaska and at least 67 guesses regarding Steph Curry’s timetable for a return and, still, […]

Skydiving is scary shit. Back in May of 2013, when I decided to understand this theory by actually trying skydiving, the discovery portion of my science fair project happened…oh, right around the time when the plane started to creep over 13,000 feet. We—this group of daring five or […]
A long, long time ago…three months to be exact—which, in this day and age and Twitter-ness is ancient history—the newest edition of Star Wars hit the big screen. It was around that time I made a personal decision, something of an older-man creed: There was no way—in hell, […]
This year I decided to use a new method for filling out my NCAA bracket. Seeing that this tradition falls so damn close (practically on) St. Patrick’s Day, I thought it would be a great idea to scour the Los Angeles watering holes in search of one girl […]
The last time the Pittsburgh Pirates won the World Series gas prices were around $0.86 a gallon. That means I could have driven from my small town in Ohio to Three Rivers Stadium, and back, for the same amount of cash one beer and a hot dog will […]
The NFL Draft—2015, yo!—is merely hours away from its fan-fest commencement and I haven’t got a clue who is going where and in what round. Not one. Sorry. Sheepishly, I had hoped for some sort of quasi-reasoning to slip into my head, allowing me to, at least, spew […]
