BETHPAGE, NY – In a hostile rink and with the enemy fans lathered to a frenzy by a stunning late surge, Western Mass Destruction’s star jammer and co-captain, Caroline “Clam Jammer” Voyles, scored a late triple grand slam on a power jam to rally WMD past the Long Island Roller Rebels 120-105.

Rising star PR rep Jessica Aufiero, (who, among other projects, is repping the new Kyle Phillps-designed courses in Sicily, a resprt owned by Sir Rocco Forte called “Verdura”), asked me for my thoughts on this year’s FIFA World Cup. After the success I had picking Italy to win in 2006, and after turning the World on to Ghana – the darling...
They had everything: money, fame, fans, trophies, and glory. It was their world, we just lived in it. Then they gave it all back with acts of supreme hubris. They have met the enemy…in the mirror. Sure, Tiger Woods’s fall from grace may have been the swiftest collapse from the highest pedestal, but let’s look at some more men and women who ruled the...
I’ll be spending the evening breaking down Tim Finchem’s press conference for you. Listening to him did not engender confidence that he’s taking the Tour in the right direction, but that article is for tomorrow. Giving credit where it is due, Outside the Lines proves they are still the best journalistic high water mark at the Four-letter. This...
So the New York Post has really been hammering the Steve Phillips cheating story. I’m surprised they didn’t find this video of Phillips’s wife’s choice words for him in private… Meanwhile Steve Czaban sums…this…up nicely… “This gal couldn’t get laid at a Star Trek convention with a fist full of $20’s...
Brian from Awful Announcing might want to link to this video of a horribly unprofessional CNN anchor acting like a lugnut fan: “O” well…at least we won’t have to see Medinah – that big ugly dog nobody likes, that red-haired step-child of a major championship venue with six fingers and six toes which should have kept it’s shoes and...
Oh this is PRICELESS! One of the best in the Real Men of Genius series.
Tales of the Weird…enemy ball players get spooked at Pfister Hotel in Milwaukee.
He must really get restless when the St. Lous cardinals come to town.
Thank you Steve Czaban for doing the heavy lifting for me on a day when I’m getting set up at Bethpage for the Open. Of all the people to walk head first, by accident into aPittsburgh Penguins bar in NYC on the night they play for the Stanley Cup, it’s me. I guess being a fan sometimes pays off! Thank you, shiny karma! I’m five seconds from going...
Thanks ESPN. Eleven years of undefeated seasons. Video here.
Oh, and we’re top 22 in the country in academics too. Man, I love my school. Take that BCS, Ivies.
Go, fight, win, Trin! Shout it out loud – from Connecticut to California, from Yale to Pepperdine, GO FIGHT WIN, TRIN.
Rant over, as you were. Now back to golf.
Now this is talking out your heiney. After getting traded to Buffalo, (oh, that’s Rich! Buffalo! hahahahahahahahahahaha)… Anyway, after getting traded to Iceland Buffalo, Owens gushed like a schoolgirl overr a New Dave Matthews CD about having a small white church mouse for a Quarterback. From the article:  “Predictably, he had nothing but good...
Ace ’80s pitcher Jim Kaat threw some chin music at the MLBPA and Major League baseball officials for their role in profiteering off a drug-fueled workplace. “Heck, there weren’t any rules in our day. We were trying to get the edge. Who’s to say we wouldn’t have done the same thing?” That echoes the comments made by Darryl...
They haven’t lost in squash in eleven years (Division I). They won their first 44 baseball games last year before a single loss in the best of three final against Johns Hopkins, and then they rallied in the ninth to beat Hopkins and win the Division III National Championship. Click here for the video. Now the Bantam golf team has cracked the top 25. ...
