An Automotive Six-Pack of Thoughts

Traffic in LA is awful.  No matter what time of day, what day of the week, chances are you will be stuck in a traffic jam.  Having attended a night games at Dodger Stadium on Friday and a day game on Sunday, I can attest to that.  With automobiles on the brain, here are my thoughts this Monday:  [...]

The Tables Have Turned On Tiger

It used to be just his mere presence intimidated other golfers, such was Tiger’s dominance. But now that his superhero status has been revoked, it seems he’s not quite sure how to deal with it. Tiger looks uncomfortable and unsure of himself. He seems to be thinking, instead of doing, and when you get lost [...]

The Streak Is Over

It took 14 years, but the National League finally won an All-Star Game.  Brian McCann’s three-run double in the 7th inning was the big blow, but it was the pitching that made it possible.  Nine hurlers combined to give up just six hits and one unearned run, setting the stage for McCann’s heroics.  Jonathan Broxton [...]

An Embarrassing Spectacle Six-Pack of Thoughts

I was hoping LeBron’s narcissistic episode would be the last embarrassing spectacle for a while.  As usual, it turns out I was wrong.  His might have been the worst, but it clearly wasn’t the last. Act like an owner, not a deranged fan – I get it, Dan Gilbert.  I really do.  But that letter.  Oh [...]

A New Nickname For LeBron

You can’t be called The King if you leave your castle and go to live where somebody else rules.  Because of that, we need to come up with a new nickname for LeBron James.  I offered this up to listeners and they came up with five excellent suggestions.  The Jester The Duchess of Deferral The [...]

LeBron Is Going To Miami

No, I didn’t have any insider information.  And I didn’t have any concrete evidence, unless you considered the Suns’ Jared Dudley’s tweet to be The King’s word.  I just thought the way everything played out left LeBron with nowhere to go but the Big Apple. I just can’t believe he decided go play for Dwyane Wade’s team. When [...]

The Finish Line Is In Sight

As if the hype surrounding LeBron James and NBA Free Agency wasn’t enough, King James is taking it to a whole ‘nother level.  No, I’m not talking about his new twitter account.  I’m talking about an ESPN Special to air Thursday night during which he will announce where he’s going to play. My first reaction was to channel my inner John [...]

A July 4th Food & Drink Six-Pack of Thoughts

I hope everybody enjoyed their holiday weekend.  If not, hopefully you didn’t end up arrested like former Nathan’s Hot Dog Eating Contest champ Takeru Kobayashi.  I guess the urge to chow dogs was just too strong.  Since nothing too important happened since Friday, I figure we can hold off on the sports for a day [...]
