I have no scientific evidence to back this up, but consistently in my life, bad shit disproportionately happens on Wednesday. I do not make doctor's appointments, nor take my car to the shop on Wednesdays. I am always uncomfortable when a key basketball or footy match is scheduled

It's so much fun to see Dook having a "bad" season. It brings us great joy. Of course, those dickblocks will probably land a four-seed in the NCAA Tourney, and roll all the way to the national championship, because we're not allowed to experience joy for too long. Anyway, there's an

Don't you love when white men solve racism on their own? It's a beautiful thing. Now, if they could only get around to paying that child support... So now that football season is officially over (NANANANANANNA I CAN'T HEAR YOU NANANANANA), we're really shifting into other things. I am uncomfortable with

I have been writing this up for a while now. This report has been written, deleted, and started from scratch daily. It is easy to get caught up in our cynical nature about what the NFL has done to us. They have lied to us about player safety. They have

Holy fucking shit, I need a cigarette. Or more my style, a pipe chock full of opium. Did God decide to take the Sabbath off? Or go see the new Star Wars movie, now that the crowds have thinned out? Or maybe He just doesn't control football games

Although Peyton can't feel his fingers Ben has one-upped him and doesn't feel his shoulder, empathy or many other complex emotions. The Broncs starting QB has a gorgeous 9-17 TD/INT ratio that places him right up there with the likes of Vince Young and Pedo Sanchez as the worst fellas

After watching Arizony blurp their way to victory yesterday I'm saying that the winner of this game is the NFC champ. It looks like RB Lynch is back on the field today. The usual fart-makers that must talk about things are wondering if he'll be 'ready'. Hmm, do you think

Oak Island is a 140 acre island located off of the south shore of Nova Scotia. For more than 200 years people of all types and backgrounds have searched for treasure supposedly hidden away on the island. To date almost nothing has been found. Still people continue to pursue the
