Growing up in Connecticut, I wasn’t the typical choice to be a NASCAR fan. There were plenty of professional sports just down the road in New York City, so it wasn’t like I was lacking in sports to watch. I saw plenty of Mets games in person and on WWOR. One Jets game in person [...]

Generally, I’m jaded about the Internet. I feel like I’ve seen everything there is to see. Certainly I never go “web surfing” anymore like I did in the early days of being online. Thanks to the Ultimate Mets Database though, I was able to look up my first MLB Box Score, from the Cubs @ [...]

The Tallahassee Democrat has an editorial today about the amount of money sent towards the FSU Football program and the lack of money spent on academics at FSU thanks to the Florida Legislature. I understand their point, but the logic of the editorial is horrible flawed. Their points: FSU Football gets X amount of dollars [...]

I hate to say it, but the New York Mets need to be sellers in the trade market, starting now. Last night’s 7-1 loss was typical for this season, and I’ve officially given up hope on the Mets making the playoff this season. Things they need to do: Trade Jose Reyes for a bunch of [...]

Go check out Block-C.com. They have an obsession with Willy Korn that is so fun, even I now believe in Willy Korn.

Yep… that’s all I have to say about it because I’m a mature adult now and I’m not going to whine about the Philadelphia Phillis winning the series. But in reality, it’s been rough to be a Mets / Jets fan… for the Jets fans… we had to watch a Giants – Patrios Super Bowl… [...]

I write for my main website ScalpEm.com on a regular basis. My goal over there has always been to either A) get more coverage of a sport that wasn’t covered (softball) or B) to push my own opinion, since a message board wasn’t enough. Hahaha. You can’t ignore my post if it’s the whole site, [...]

Yeah, I realize that nobody is upset, but there’s still a big part of me that hates letting down a team, even if it’s just rec league softball. Yes work had an emergency, which caused me to miss a game last night, but it still doesn’t make me feel any better. Sorry guys… I might [...]

What’s better than watching the video of Buckner over and over again? Watching an RBI Baseball reenactment of it with the announcers dubbed on it.

It’s early on Friday, but I’m going to go out on a limb and make my picks for the playoff games. Both the Saints and Patriots will win their games. The Saints win, because they have the best offense left in the playoffs and because Rex Grossman doesn’t have two good games in a row.  [...]
