Take…Take me Home

1.) I put that song “Home” by Bone Thugs-N-Harmony on a mixtape that I made recently and I have to say, I do not regret the decision one bit.  Holy cow, what an underrated song.  It has an abundance of unintentional comedy. I mean, it’s a Bone Thugs-N-Harmony song with freakin’ Phil Collins for crying out loud. According to Wikipedia, the group got so much positive feedback from the song (in the U.K., not the U.S.) that they decided to name Phil Collins an honorary member of the group with the moniker “Chrome Bone.” Gangsta. Now, with all that…

His Edge Is Back, He’s Right on Track

Well haven’t I learned my lesson? I mockingly decided to post something about the 76ers a few days ago during their 9-0 home win streak. I say mockingly because the last time the Sixers were on a streak this season, I published something and that very evening they lost. I mentioned this during the second post and then it happened again! My posts are killing the Sixers’ streaks! Should I just never post about them again?? Does this count as a post about them now?? This vexes me… I’m terribly vexed. As promised, I will deliver this week’s conference…

Tebow Ran Out of the Jesus Juice

Awesome weekend of playoff football! The Saints/Niners game was certainly much more of a showdown than I expected. Nobody called Alex Smith pulling together a 2-minute game winning drive, but he did. God damn he did. Not even Alex Smith is sure how he did it. The Patriots took care of business as predicted, which leads me to the theory of the reverse-jinx double-jinx. Not many people are aware of such an illusive state of karma as the reverse-jinx double-jinx, but it applies very specifically to the Tebow/Pats game. The initial jinx would be Tebow being called a flop…

A Bear Walks into a Press Conference Wearing a Fedora…

Good morning folks.  Last week I went 3-1 in my NFL Picks and 2-2 against the spread.  So I’m feeling a little confident, I know that my first year doing this for the headrush, I went 0-4.  How embarrassing!  Speaking of embarrassing, Big Ben’s hat. What the heck was he thinking?  And how come no teammate came up to him and said “Hey, Ben, I know that you REALLY want to wear that hat, but it kinda makes you look like A.) A villain in Robocop 2 B.) A backup dancer for Chris Brown C.) A Grizzly bear wearing…

Can’t Stop, Won’t Stop. Sixers Talk, Sprinkled With NFL

Well… when they start sucking, I might stop talking about them, but how can I now? The 76ers are off to their best start in almost 10 years! With a record of (7-2), the Sixers lead the NBA in some of the most impressive categories for a team: Greatest points differential, points-per-game on the road, field-goal percentage, points-allowed, and we rank in the top 5 for every category worth considering. Some are quick to critique the small sample, to which I say, “Fuck you!”, but then follow up with, “That small sample size is still 15% of the season….

Wildcard Bitches!

Alrighty then!  The NFL was fun while it lasted but now it’s time to get down to business. No more slogging through terrible Jets games or being stuck watching the Browns and the Bills.  Now it’s only the big boys so let’s get the picks, shall we? Denver +8.5 over the Steelers.  As a matter of fact, I am going to go out a limb and say that Denver just flat out BEATS the Steelers. Look, I watched the Steelers play the Browns last week and they looked turrible!  I know the Donkeys did too, but still, I just…

Week 17, the Week of Futility and Quigley.

Ahhhh, it was a tough Sunday wasn’t it? It’s hard to sit through football when there’s no fantasy implications or gambling taking place isn’t it? Just imagine if someone said, “Hey man, we’re going to watch baseball for 10 hours straight! It’ll be awesome!” Football was almost on that level. Watching the Eagles cruise over the Redskins was only fitting now that the season is over. It sure is a lot easier to get that W when there’s no spotlight on anyone. The Raiders had a chance to take the division after the Broncos defeat and whiffed. I wonder…
