Such an emotional rollercoaster this week with the Yankees that I have to break it up into multiple posts.... I pulled an all nighter on Saturday night/Sunday, and ploughed through the Yankee Stadium Tribute marathon. I was punchy from being over tired, half drunk, and had a great time. I wondered if Chris Chambliss ever considered a career as a linebacker, watching the '76 ALCS. I chanted

He says as he's about to run out the door... Oh well.Real quick Pinstripe update -o Mr April has earned his $275m paycheck... not.o Jobamania and CMW are out for likely the remainder of the season.o Pudge Rod didn't exactly provide the punch behind the plate that the Yankees had hoped.o Got Melky was demoted and is now trade bait.o Girardi's stock answer for any injury is that there's nothing

Everybody is talking about the passing of George Carlin, so you know that I had to get my two cents in. He was a brilliant comedian, insightful, yadda yadda yadda, you know the whole deal. But, thanks to him, I got to share a moment with my family, and I'll always be grateful to him for it.I first heard of, and got into Carlin's work during my senior year of high school. (I thought that it was

You've got the check out this clip of CBS News Chief Foreign Correspondent Lara Logan on the Daily Show. Don't pay attention to her long legs, or her lady lumps, or her sexy shoulders, or her long flowing blonde hair, or her sultry and sexy accent, but listen to the words coming out of her mouth. Good shit on what we've all known for quite some time - that the newsrooms across America are still

In the past 90 minutes, I've lost two TV shows.I've been taping American Gladiators, and since Season 1, I've been having to fast fowrard through more and more of it. The concept is still sound, however, NBC's execution has been piss poor. That includes the casting - that's exactly what it is - of the contestants, Hootie's lame interviews (Leila's interviews aren't much better, but she has some

Why do most national baseball broadcasters sound like this sound bite of John Mayer?I love the passion of the broadcasters of the G4 show, Ninja WarriorErnest Thayer, of course, penned the classic baseball poem, "Casey at the Bat." What I love about these two is that they convey the spirit of their sport. They don't do a Joe Buck and throw a bunch of stats and figures at you. Yes, those are

The Outlook wasn't brilliant for the Mudville nine that day:The score stood four to two, with but one inning more to play.And then when Cooney died at first, and Barrows did the same,A sickly silence fell upon the patrons of the game.A straggling few got up to go in deep despair. The restClung to that hope which springs eternal in the human breast;They thought, if only Casey could get but a whack

...with that in mind, I'm watching Joe Torre's Dodgers play the Red Sox =)I almost blew a gasket when I turned on ESPN and they were covering Brett Farve's retirement press conference, at 1pm. C'mon, Bristol Boy's Club for Broadcasting has been covering this non-stop since Tuesday morning. (Of course, it beats college basketball, but, still...) Luckily, they moved the coverage over to ESPNNEWS

Over the years, I've gotten to be pretty handy around the kitchen. I'll be the first to admit that watching Good Eats on the Food Network was one of my inspirations to stepping it up a notch. The fact that my wife grew up in a restaurant didn't hurt, either =)At first, I thought that more was better. More spices, more flavor. Over time, I realized that it was just too overpowering and too much...

Like my "About Me" says, I'm a part-time telecomm tech (I think of myself as a glorified cable puller, but, I'm getting better), an occasional petsitter, and a loan closer, from time to time. I used to be an escrow officer (with my own branch, for a while), a bag slinger with Disney Cruise Line, a veteran mailman for the US Army Reserve (with time in Haiti and Bosnia), and an ice-cream slinger

That's right. Yankees baseball is back on television. I haven't spoken too much about the team of '08, besides the obvious off-season scandals:o A Rod's agent, Scott Boras, announced that his player was opting out of his contract during Game 4 of the World Series. Rodriguez proceeded to renegotiate his contract with the Yankees, without Boras, and claims to this day that he hasn't spoken with
