Day 65 of The Offseason. Position: 38°37'38.17"N, 90°11'52.4"W. Winds variable from SSE. It has been 65 days since last we sighted Football. The days grow longer and the crew more fractious as we drift further and further into the Great Doldrums. Our closest contact with civilization was four days ago, when we chanced across

Evening all, I hope you are having a great Monday so far, if such a thing is possible. We had a really nice peaceful weekend and my wife started switching out her clothes for spring/summer. So I was thinking about doing some changing out myself, when I realized I will need

Senor Weaselo - April 9, 2025April 9, 2025

So my dicking around writing time is being interrupted by actually having to do my job. The nerve! Well, it could be worse I guess. And next week is spring break so I'll have some writing time. Now, granted, I'm still gigging (nobody's getting married during Passover but there are

Sorry kids, no Hot NFL Rules Updates for you this week. You're just going to have to watch White Lotus, or AI goat porn, or whatever else blows your hair back. Congratulations to the "University" of Florida on becoming the first anti-educational institution to win a college basketball championship. Congratulations also to

Which is great for me because it keeps me properly employed so I can do things like pay for stuff. Not taxes, I did that already and am waiting to see if I get anything back from my estimates or whether DOGE has finished raiding the Treasury. It’s a little less

It is emphatically NOT time for the 2025 NFL Draft. It is more than 3 WEEKS until the fucking 2025 NFL fucking Draft. TOO LONG. Listen: the GMs aren't going to get any smarter between now and the end of April. No Pro Day is going to demonstrate some new and

Quick! Only one 1 or 2 seed did not make the Sweet 16. Guess who? Yeah, it was St. John's. That's pretty much all you need to say. In a tournament that has been largely bereft of upsets they get to be the lolcow, the only top 8 seed with no

It's almost Opening Day, sports fans! OK, so technically there are already two games in the books, because why not spot the Dodgers a two-game lead? I try not to be a Cliche Middle Aged White Guy when it comes to baseball, because 1. Nobody likes C.M.A.W.G., and 2. Traditional Baseball had

I looked at my grandparents' pictures last night. The ones in the china cabinet. And for once, I spoke back. Not yet.

Ok. There's officially Too Fucking Much Going On Right Now. Politically, the "Flood the Zone With Criminal Actions" plan has been wildly successful from my point of view. Even my deep reserves of molten fury are being taxed. Also, Dr. Mrs. Mayhem is out of town for the second work week in
