We just finished the NCAA Tournament. I bet you're asking yourself, "Where can I get more Jim Nantz? I can't wait all the way to the start of the NFL season to hear his velvety voice!" This is you, right? No? Yes, it's The Masters. Golf's biggest event, and it's most self-serving.

The Pittsburgh Ice Stillers commence their Stanley Cup title defense against the "third best" team in the Metro Division, Columbus. The Pens recorded their third-best record in franchise history with 111 points, which not only wasn't enough to win the division (piss off, Crapitals), but, has them playing the equally

WCS: Well, strangely enough, the Steelers are in the AFC Championship Game. Again. Oh, and it's against the Patriots. Again. This after being 4-5 at one point in November. They've since run off nine-straight wins, won the AFC North, and got through their first two playoff games. Mike Tomlin and

STANLEY CUP WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO Enjoy the golf.   No, just kidding. Today marks the start of the year's second golf major, our national championship, the US Open. It's second of the four annual biggest events on the golf calendar, and has an earned reputation as being the "toughest test in golf." That is most

Whoopsie-doodle. Looks like no one volunteered for tonight, so here's a quarter-assed fill-in right quick. I spent today driving wifey to work, various doctor's appointments, picking the wifey back up, filling new prescriptions, getting a much needed haircut, installing my parents' third printer since September (seriously, guys?!), picking up said scripts, and

In the world of sports, there are very few things better than a Game 7. By that point, the series has been balanced, both teams are clearly evenly-matched, and it's come down to whomever makes the fewest mistakes, who sticks to the fundamentals a little bit better, and sometimes, who

Diary of a Panic Attack Pt. 1

Sup, kiddos. I used to suffer from the occasional panic attack episodes (meaning 1-4 over the span of 2-3 days) every year, year and half growing up. I didn't know what they were, nor did my parents ever really see fit to have it looked into. It's not their fault; I

Alright, you cockstains, I’m looking for some help. As all are most likely aware, I’m about to be a dad for the first time. I am fucking terrified, as I’m sure you other parents were the first time (PHRASING) were, when the realization finally hit home that you’re about to

...so I gave you a Far Side cartoon, instead. Well, it's now March. March means spring is closer. It also means it's time for the greatest sporting event over the year*, the NCAA Tournament. While we're not quite there yet, it's tantalizingly close. Smaller conferences have begun their tournaments, and the

I'm not here to talk about that thing that's happening over the weekend. I'm here to talk about #content and #branding! That's what we're really  interested in. People love #content, and they love #brands! Are you #upforwhatever? Here at Uproxx, we sure are! Whatever the cost, whatever it takes! Readers don't

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
