Merry Christmas!

Hope everyone is having a good holiday.  Thanks for all the love and support we’ve gotten over our first year. ESPN is showing basketball all day, so here’s a little gem from a few days ago where Dwight Howard tries saving a ball from out of bounds, and instead drills it off of a Spurs player.  May or may not be intentional. It’s also Adam’s birthday today, so special shout out to him. Happy Holidays guys!

Get Outta Delaware Park Week 16: SPEEEECH!

This is it.  Fantasy football finals.  Real football playoff berths at stake.  Holy S is this weekend going to be awesome.  Not only is it Christmas, and someone who happens to be writing this article’s birthday, but it is also the most significant football week of the year. For my Raiders, the road looks bleak.  They have to beat the Colts.  They need San Deigo to lose one of their last two games against garbage teams.  They need the Titans to beat Kansas City.  They then need to beat the Cheifs at Kansas City. There is not much hope….

76ers Named Top 10 Power Ranking… Then Promptly Lose.

Surfing the net earlier today, I came across an actual ESPN story that featured the 76ers.  The reason being that Philadelphia happened to be one of the most “overlooked” teams in the NBA, and that they were listed in the top 10 NBA power teams in the league.  I have no idea what that means.  I was just excited to see some national coverage for Philadelphia that wasn’t Michael Vick being the catalyst for a New York meltdown. How does a team like the 76ers respond?  They lose.  Badly.  45 points to be exact.  The 76ers started the 8…

Get Outta Delaware Park Week 15: Mumford and Sons….HATE HATE HATE

This is the time of the year when many Websites are schilling out their opinions on the best songs of 2010.  I’m a little lazy at the moment to do a list like that, however, so I thought I’d instead take this time to write about one of the most annoying bands of 2010. Mumford and Sons:  Holy balls are these guys terrible.  They are posers, they are kitsch, they are worthless. I was at a party last weekend where they played these guys about 1,000 times and I had to sit there and nod my head and be…

The Perils of Fantasy

It’s about that time of year.  Your fantasy playoffs are starting, or already have started, and hopefully, you are still in them.  There’s probably nothing more frustrating then pouring your heart and soul into collectively gathering the finest crime-free athletes the NFL has to offer, and then watching them produce zero offense in crunch time.  Not their crunch time, your crunch time. I’ve got 3 leagues this year.  2 for money, 1 for free.  Guess which one I’m doing the best in?  Thaaaaaat’s right, the free one.  Infact, I’m 11-2, coming off my  bye week, and Philip Rivers just…

Cliff Lee signs with Philadelphia Phillies

Aaaaand the award for greatest pitching staff of all time goes to? Seriously?  We are going to have Roy Oswalt, Roy Halladay, Cole Hamels, and now Cliff Lee??  I see a double ROYbow. Cliff Lee announced around midnight that he would be signing a 5 year deal with the Philadelphia Phillies.  Somehow we’ve become the Miami Heat of baseball, and the best part is we’ve basically profited from the sadness and disappointment of the New York Yankees. Adam texted me at 5 pm Tuesday afternoon, and mentioned this might happen.  How skeptical we were. I also want to note that Adam destroyed me…

Get Outta Delaware Park Week 14: Girl Talk is Amazing, Werth is a National

First of all, thanks to Randy for filling in last week.  And for having a guy like Rob Mariani on his fantasy football team.  Who is that you ask?  Only the Tennessee Titans return man who got him 27 pts on Thursday.  Yes, cause fantasy should be decided by guys like Rob freakin Mariani!  If Randy beats me, he will have eliminated me from TWO fantasy leagues.  F-That noise. But thanks for filling in. Now, have you heard the new Girl Talk yet?  If not, go get All Day now. I listened to it a while ago and thought,…
