Apparently, fellow cat-lover Mike Singletary dropped his pants at half-time to dramatize a point to his team en route to their loss to the lowly Seattle Seahawks last Sunday. I don’t really have anything to say about this except that I think it’s kind of funny and that it’s interesting to see the kinds [...]

As already mentioned on this blog, Jerry Manuel (Mets’ manager) likes to keep it gangsta. Case in point, Mets’ new 3rd base coach:

Mike Nolan: Fashionostalgianista
October 21st, 2008 · 1 Comment · T-Willikers

Whither The Business?

These are the two greatest referee calls in the history of American football:
But they’re both rather old. Why haven’t we seen this call more recently? Where has our beloved business gone? I think Ed Hochuli could redeem himself in an instant with such a call.
Placing these two at the top of Officiating Mountain, what are [...]
What Is It To Be 'Gangsta'?
October 1st, 2008 · 4 Comments · Ground Possum
A couple of days ago, crestfallen Mets fans were looking for something to cheer for; and they got it in the form of a complete game 3-hitter from lefty ace Johan Santana. In a game that the Mets had to have to keep their playoff hopes alive, Santana came off three-days rest and a [...]
