Sigh. Superbowl Goes Climastupid

You just knew it was only a matter of time The National Football League has announced that it will be offsetting pretty much all of Super Bowl XLV’s energy expenditures this year — an amount that evidently adds up to a staggering 15,000 megawatts. They’ll be offsetting the energy use with renewable energy certificates provided […]

Guess Why Kansas State Lost The Pinstrip Bowl

This ones a doozy Coffman, who played brilliantly in his last college game, led the (Kansas State) Wildcats into Syracuse territory and connected with Hilburn near the sideline about 10 yards down field. After winning a footrace to the end zone, he dropped the ball, did a quick salute and turned to celebrate with his […]

GHG Caused Snow May Cancel Giants-Vikings Game

Warmest Year Eveh! The Giants took off shortly after 10 a.m. today and made it as far as Kansas City. A few members of the New York-New Jersey media contingent left about an hour and a half later and stopped in Cleveland, only to be turned around and sent back to Newark. I didn’t even […]

Panthers Test The Waters At Giants Stadium, Do Not Like!

Kind of a sloppy game, Giants recievers need to hang bring the ball in. Defense looked good, they’ll have to keep it going for the year Eli Manning has a new favorite target, the Giants’ defense showed its teeth once again and the 2010 season opened with a 31-18 victory against the Carolina Panthers today […]

You Thought Your Golf Course Was Tough? Try Playing The AGC

Rockies – Phillies Postponed Due To Major Heat Spell

Oh, wait, sorry The snow in Colorado scrapped plans for Pedro Martinez’s first postseason start in five years. Game 3 of the Philadelphia-Colorado playoff series was postponed a day because of weather Saturday better suited for cross-country skiing. That prompted a pitching switch by the Phillies, with left-hander J.A. Happ going to the mound Sunday […]

I Despise The Redskins, But, Sheesh, Even Their Incompetence Offends Me

Congratulations to the Detroit Lions, who broke a 19 game losing streak to beat the hapless and truly pathetic Washington Deadskins. I’m thinking Redskins head coach Jim Zorn is going to be adding to Obama’s unemployment numbers Monday. Who the h*ll calls a flea flicker with 8 seconds left  and a “we have to throw […]

Friday Fun: Things That Really Matter

Serious Congress Debates Equally Serious Subject

Apparently, now that Congress has fixed the economy, Iraq, Afghanistan, Pakistan, illegal immigration, health care, Chrysler, and so many major issues, then now have time for really serious debate, in true bipartisan idiot fashion Texas Rep. Joe Barton likened college football’s Bowl Championship Series to “communism” Friday, even as he made the case that the […]
