So we’re 14 days into 2016 and I have an uncomfortable question to ask…how are your New Year’s resolutions coming along? First things first, if yer gonna tell me that, “I don’t do resolutions because [some variation of ‘that’s lame’/’it’s an arbitrary day’/’real change comes from within when you’re ready for it’] well, just because”, don’t waste your precious energy. I’ve managed to cut down my drinking by a solid 15% so you should be shorting InBev and the rest of booze stocks you have in your portfolio. Treadmill-oriented self-abuse has definitely increased from ‘virtually nil’ to ‘more than nil’, so I’m kinda proud of that. Increased consumption of fruits and veggies-not so much fruit but raw sugar snap peas and baby carrots have enjoyed a renaissance in the scotchnaut household. I give myself a “B” for now, knowing that it may go all to shit very quickly.

The Raptors beat the Magic in OT in London? I had no idea there was a game there. Way to market the game to someone who barely cares about the NBA, NBA! There are no other games that matter in this league other than Cavs/Spurs this evening. The other teams are just wasting their time. In a similar vein, the Rangers/Isles and Hawks/Habs games in the NHL are the only eye-grabbers available. College ball features #16 Iowa/#4 MSU and #20 Pitt/#21 Louisville. GET TO IT DOWN BELOW!
