Senor Weaselo - April 13, 2023April 13, 2023

Welcome back to the Beat, where we time crunch the important stuff. Whoops. Anyway, the bubble is starting to take shape. Who'll be in, who'll be out, and who'll be freaking out the entire time? We start finding out now. To the fights! Lock-Jaw vs. MadCatterLock-Jaw: 2-1 (W, JD 3-0 vs.

Wumbo Wednesday With Weaselo: Senor’s Spring Break Update

Senor Weaselo - April 12, 2023April 11, 2023

Well last week was fun. I went to the fights and a hockey game broke out. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bRh2MB8fuXs I'd say all in all, fun was had by most, and it's just how I drew it up, a multi-goal game from Tyler Motte. The bridge level at the Garden is a really good vantage

ballsofsteelandfury - April 12, 2023April 8, 2023

As you may or may not have noticed, there was no Balls Magazine last week. The reason for that is that I haven't had the time to get out onto the course or the driving range. That all changes today as my local golf club just had its third tourney of

Men Untied Rise Again? Lesser Footy Thread

While we wait on the Easter Bunny to spring back into life, at least there is sportsball to keep us occupado. Home to Still Shite But Trying Harder Everton (7:30, USA) should be a nice cure for the Fightin' Wakeys goalscoring woes. I am still mad at them for capitulating so meekly to

Three weeks of the 2023 Aussie Footy season are in the books, and here are some observations from 'Murrica: Holy shit was I (read: everyone) wrong about Geelong. They're at the bottom of the ladder and looking woeful/like they woefully belong there. Injuries are crushing teams, not just my Giants

BattleBots Beat: Your Midseason Return

Senor Weaselo - April 6, 2023April 6, 2023

Welcome back to the Beat! We've had some time to stretch our legs, so with (we think) five episodes left before the tournament we can see where we stand as everyone finishes their third fights and moves on to their last ones. Let's get to it, shall we? To the

Hello, friends. It's a tradition unlike any other. It's The Masters. I'm Jim Nantz, and it's my distinct pleasure to bring you one of the great events in all of sports. It's Augusta National Golf Club, the Mecca of professional golf. The pride, the heritage, the racial purity. Yes, The Masters embodies

WHO YA GOT?? And more importantly....what is the Low Commander/Horatio #ShameBet? Needs must, y'all. JV Hardwood BOLTMEN!! (+7) v. Fightin' Horatios (9:20, CBS) Somehow, these two (seeded 5th and 4th in their respective regions) were the "chalk" picks of the semifinal round. Fuck me, is that ever some glorious chaos. In the final,

April Fools' Day is the dumbest day of the Murrikan calendar. YES, even worse than Greeting Card Day (ie, 14 Feb). Take that shit somewhere else. City host the Redshite early (Peacock, 7:30), but down a Foden and likely Haaland, too. They should still be better (especially at home) but there's

Wumbo Wednesday With Weaselo: Your BattleBots Beat Bracket Watch

Senor Weaselo - March 29, 2023March 29, 2023

The season starts back up tomorrow because of the midseason Madness break. Because they don't want BattleBots competing with the chaos that has ensued. (FAU? Hooty hoot, motherfuckas!) Anyway, I've been keeping track, fightwise and done my own crib notes. I'd call it Bubble Watch, but ESPN took that. I know

As you may or may not know, the West Coast has been hit with a lot of rain this winter. Don't get me wrong, I'm thankful for it and I want more to tell you the truth. We desperately need it. The only thing is that it interferes with playing golf.

The last one. Sweet mother of god am I ever eager to get this league over with. A night at the alley with friends while luring meeting lady tourists? Great time. 4 months of league bowling? Sure, that’s swell. I can do those things and enjoy them. But almost 7 full months
