Every year we make these promises to ourselves.
“I’m gonna quit smoking.”
“I’m going on a diet.”
“No candy, no cookies, no anything fun.”
Let me tell you ladies and gentlemen, stop it. Stop the madness. If you haven’t done it all year chances are you are going to set yourself up to fail. Don’t make promises you know [...]

2008 NFL Regular Season Comes to a Close
The 2008 NFL Regular Season has come to a close. So, for better or worse, what do we know?
We know…
Atlanta Falcons QB Matt Ryan is for real.
Winning a crappy division like the NFC West doesn’t mean you are a good team.
Starting out the Regular Season 8-3 and missing the playoffs means the coach needs to start sending out resumes.
Failing [...]

It’s a Wonderful Life Unless Your a Cub Fan
Every time I see this part of It’s A Wonderful Life I can’t help but think of the Cubs. Like George Bailey, Jim Hendry goes into Potter (Tribune) begging, pleading and whining. Potter simply replies “What are you but a warped, frustrated young man.” And that is how it goes on Clark and Addison.
Half way [...]

Puck Bunnies Vol. 4
This is by far one of the more interesting hockey seasons in recent memories. We have “Sloppy Seconds” Avery out of the league and that is never a bad thing. 5 of the 6 original teams are playing awesome hockey. The “Brodyless” Devils continue to play playoff quality hockey and Toronto still sucks. There is no [...]

Wild and Wacky NFL Season
The NFL season is drawing to a close and it has been very odd. I would even say wild and wacky.
Who predicts Tom Brady missing the season, Chad Pennington finding a new lease on life in South Florida or the Seahawks and Browns taking a complete dump? It has been extremely bizarre. The Lions? Ok, [...]

Tis the Season for DRAFT TALK 2009.
The road is never an easy one. Some assume it is and gloat in their teams selection of a Ryan Leaf, George Rogers or Rashan Salaam. And, when they turn out to suck they deny they ever wanted them or cheered for them. “Ryan Leaf is a bust, I always said he was.” Others brag [...]

Puck Bunnies Vol. 3
It is getting cold out there. It was 10 degrees yesterday and it is snowing like an MF out there today. Winter is a brutal time of year but it does have a few redeeming qualities. One of them happens to be hockey season and with hockey season comes puck bunnies. Enjoy vol. #3.
Zetterberg is one lucky [...]

Baseball Winter Meetings Maddness
After a couple of days of meetings we have nothing interesting to report. I’ve read hundreds of articles and Blog entries about who is going where and how it will impact the season but no one has gone any where.
The big deal is supposed to be the Cubs acquiring Jake Peavy. This morning GM Hendry [...]

Puck Bunnies Vol. 2
Let’s brighten our Monday with a fine collection of Puck Bunnies.

I sure hope there isn’t a penalty for 3rd one in. This is getting interesting.
OK, who wants to be the Pittsburgh jersey?
Defenseman Sheldon Souray is one of the luckiest men in the NHL.
It appears now all of the BPD fans have [...]
