A Self Divided…Alabama vs. Florida the SEC Championship Game

I grew up a Bama fan. My dad grew up in Sheffield, Alabama and we would always travel down from St. Louis to Muscle Shoals each thanksgiving to visit my grandparents and we would watch the iron bowl against Auburn. I grew up a Bama fan. But then things changed. When I graduated from Harding […]

With Tom Brady Hurt is My Fantasy Football Season Over?

Well, I only got 3 points from Brady and am still winning my matchup this week by 30 points. Something tells me that isn’t going to happen consistently without Brady. Hope that isn’t a torn ACL! So much for having the first pick of our draft. Last year I was the last pick of 12, […]

Who is the Greatest Olympian of All Time?

Phelps has been tagged the greatest Olympian of all time. I am not a swimmer but I do understand that what he accomplished is next to impossible by a single person in a single Olympic games. I appreciate what Phelps has done and it may never be repeated. One of the reasons 8 golds in […]

Superbowl Prediction

I know you have all been waiting with baited breath (maybe Mark can explain that phrase in one of his “Use Your Allusion” posts) for this one. Here is my pick: The winner’s name will start with “New”…not good enough? Okay. New England Patriots – 31 New York Giants – 21 * I am not […]

Congratulations Tank and remember if you do well it will be great and if something goes wrong…don’t sweat it […]

A Nor’easter Killed My Fantasy Football Season

Who would have thought Tom Brady would go for 140 yards passing, an interception, and zero touchdowns. It also didn’t help that my team, “The Pancreas Crushers” went against the only team in […]

The Longest Single in Slowpitch Softball

Our church team played a local bar last night in the city softball league. I think those guys are finally softening up to us a little bit. They normally try to start fights and be obnoxious but last night they were very classy. My second at bat last night I really got ahold of the […]

Slowpitch Softball Record Falls

On top of my fantasy football loss this week breaking a 4 game winning streak our church softball team broke our 15 game winning streak last night. Even worse the game ended early due to a 12 run lead in the 5th inning. While we still have a one game lead this certainly doesn’t make […]
