As y'all may know, Sharky is out in our nation's Island State enjoying the sunshine, ocean, and resort drinks. While he's out there living life right with the Shark Clan, I thought I would step in with a Mexican drink you may or may not have heard of. It's easily

I guess my law firm must HATE TEH TROOPZ because we get neither Friday nor Monday off.  But that's ok, I do all my shit from home so we might just have lots of "client development" time entries.  Y'all could be clients some day (well, the ones with the worst

Nut cuttin' time is here, y'all.  Also, I apologize in advance for next week's stupid international break.  Don't forget to wave at the Clubhouse degenerates who have assembled in Las Vegas! Mighty Whitey (fresh off a midweek Caribou triumph) get reeling Men Untied (fresh off a home spanking by Geordie Arabia's B

Has everyone had just the bestest day?  Since I'm the only (living) Wolven Sort around (paging Warthog!), I knew y'all would have.  Talk about el beisbol if you want, but know that I will be quietly judging you for doing so. Ballsy: And he will be not so quietly judging me for

Damn, I will miss October.  Perfect month, with conference schedules heating up, NFL taking things up a notch, being able to shut down the HVAC system and enjoy a nice window-fed breeze. That said, November ALSO kicks ass, so no need for mourning. How will Chelski react to blowing a 2-nil lead

Because, goddamnit.  It's Derby Day, and as usual we have no fucking chance to even swindle a point out of those Redshite Motherfuckers. The game is on USA at 7:30 EST.  Which hopefully means I will sleep through it.  Poor little grandson Bronco doesn't yet know to give me a wide berth

You'd think we'd get a better schedule from the universe, with no morning Lesser Footy to enjoy.  But noooooo, the universe say fuck all y'all, yew git what yew git. Georgia (-31.5) at Vanderbilt (Noon, CBS) Golly gee, sure glad Vandy has home field.  Imagine how bad they'd get pistol-whipped Between the Hedges. Arkansas

Some weeks, I just can't really be arsed to preview all the Lesser Footy.  Especially with the German Elton John up on his cross again, wailing about the Spurs match/VAR fuck-up.  You've gotten waaaaayyyyyy more than your fair share of oopsie-doodles over the years, please just STFU. Full schedule is here,

September is such a beautiful time of year, and not just for the "windows down" time in the car.  That does make the outside world a teenier bit MOAR bearable, though. Also!  We get a proper Saturday morning of footy, with Villa hosting the Trashbirds early (7:30, USA).  I can't promise

Technically, it was still summer before.  And summer can get right fucked. It's not all rainbows and sunshine, as we get NO early morning fixture.  GUH.  Only three in the 10:00 window, as we go "Sunday heavy" this week, with some "name teams" in Zooropa.  City of Men hosting Robins Hood
