Getting Political: Clear Explanation of Tax Cuts and the rest of the story
February 28th, 2008 · No Comments
The following was sent to me in an email by a friend:
CLEAR EXPLANATION OF TAX CUTS…
Sometimes politicians, journalists and others exclaim: “It’s just a tax cut

Just Watch the Tape
February 26th, 2008 · 6 Comments
Sure the NFL combine is good theatre but I just can’t get over how unnecessary this whole festival is. First of all, I don’t think the NFL combine should be for Division-I athletes. Or at the very least, I don’t think NFL scouts should invite starters on the division I teams. The NFL combine should […]

February 23rd, 2008 · 3 Comments
We’ve all heard the saying that even a “blind squirrel finds a nut once in a while” well that’s how I feel about the NCAA ruling yesterday to restore 8 wins originally taken from the Oklahoma Sooners football program in the 2005 season.

Another sport, another attempt at a comeback. America’s favorite windbag receiver, Keyshawn Johnson is contemplating a comeback but no one is urging this other than Keyshawn. Miami has luke warm interest but after going 1-15 last year, the Dolphins are interested in football players from American Somoa to Malaysia. Keyshawn should spare us all […]

If your list of possible steroid users is not long enough, reinsert Juan Gonzalez back into the game. Two plus years removed from his last plate appearance, the one time RBI machine and pitcher terrorist has reappeared with the St. Louis Cardinals. More fun for reporters as they get to ask more steroid questions this […]

NBA Needs to “Hold the Mayo”
February 18th, 2008 · 1 Comment
If anyone watched O.J Mayo’s 4 point, 10 turnover performance Sunday vs UCLA, it’s evident that this guy isn’t ready for the NBA yet. While Mayo turning pro after his freshman year at USC would be a big mistake, it would be a bigger mistake if he did and some NBA team took this guy […]
