SIXERS IXERS IXERS!!!

This week has been sweet. Super sweet. The 76ers, after starting the season 5-17, have since had an above .500 record for the past 3 months. They have been f-in crushing it. Let’s recap the week shall we? Atlanta Hawks on Tuesday. That was a blowout. I haven’t seen the 76ers win by 34 in… oh… I don’t know. Never. The universe must be collapsing upon itself because the 76ers never win a game in blowout fashion… especially not to a team fifth in the division. Very next night the Sixers lose a pretty close game to the Orlando…

Super Bowl: Thumbs Up/Thumbs Down

The Super Bowl is over….football is over….it is now time to embrace the most hellish sports month the calendar has to offer: February (shudder). And thanks to greedy owners/a terrible union, we may never see football again until the year 2012. And by terrible union, I mean turrible.  The QBs hate the DBs, the DBs hate the O-linemen, the O-linemen hate the D-linemen, the D-linemen hate everybody, everybody has concussions that have turned their brains to scrambled eggs.  It’s just one weird sport where you have guys playing different positions who don’t like the guys who play the other…

SUPERBOWL PICKS BABY!!!

It’s that time of year! The culmination of all our hopes and dreams placed into one 4 hour long commercial, with bits and pieces of football sprinkled in. Since we’d like to rig the contest here to make it more exciting, it’s match play bitches, meaning Adam, Brendan, and I are tied like some Nike Air Jordan shoelaces. It comes down to this one game, one selection, to determine who in-fact has ungodly like football prediction qualities. I wager it to be me. So the challenge this time was to not only select the team with the spread, but…

Sippin’ on Haterade: Kevin Garnett.

Nothing’s worse than watching one of the dirtiest players in the NBA be met with success and granted immunity from fines. I’ve been a fan of pro basketball for a mere 3 years now, and even to a novice like me, it’s still apparent that aside from the bad-guy-turned-good Ron Artest, Kevin Garnett truly is the dirtiest player in the game. I remember watching his 2008 NBA Finals and the one thing that stood out was how insane he sounded immediately after winning the championships. He went on a somewhat insane tirade screaming “Anything is Possible!!” repeatedly, which is…

1990 Royal Rumble LIVE BLOG!

Oh yeah!  Tomorrow night is the WWE’s Royal Rumble and so instead of spending 50 bucks to watch John Morrison win, setting up the inevitable Morrison vs. Miz Wrestlemania, I thought that I’d go back and watch a classic Royal Rumble.  Back when the hair was longer, the steroided muscles were bigger, and all was right with the world. Let’s get it on! We’re welcomed by a guy named Jack who says, “As always, Jack’s got your back!”  Baaaaad catch phrase, Jack. Oh yeah, this is going to be AWESOME!  We got Dusty Rhodes, Macho Man, Ultimate Warrior.  Can’t…

Here we ayah Gov’nah!

I used to be the guy that didn’t give two flying f bombs about soccer. For years I’d hear about it’s revival in America, the resurgence of this amazing sport, being embraced by anyone and everyone alike. But nothing ever happened. The MLS helped no one except retired pro’s from Europe. And then something happened…. I played Fifa 10 for PS3. It seemed as though God managed to take time from granting athletes and rappers special skills to design a video game that captured everything that was good and great about soccer. I became addicted. I played night and…
