Peyton Scores

Monday, March 26th, 2007

You know I was not going to let Peyton Manning’s appearance on SNL go by without posting a couple of videos for those of you who missed it (as well as for you Brady lovers. :- ) )
I’m proud to say that Peyton was damned good for a guy who isn’t an actor or [...]

Funny Man

Saturday, March 24th, 2007

About thirty six hours ago, I was having hopes of seeing Tennessee play again today in the NCAA basketball tournament. Well, we know how that turned out. But thanks to an e-mail from my boy, Tank, it has come to my attention that I’ve got something just as good to fire up the [...]

It Was So Big

Friday, March 23rd, 2007

There is good news and bad news. The good news (for most of you reading) is that I won’t be talking about basketball anymore (not until next winter anyway). The bad news (and the reason why I won’t be talking about basketball) is that Tennessee is out of the NCAA tournament. March [...]

Friday, March 9th, 2007

A tabloid newspaper in South America has reported that New England Patriots three-time Superbowl winning quarterback Tom Brady has gotten his current girlfriend, Brazillian Supermodel Gisele (so super she has only one name…like Gia) pregnant. Now if this is true, it comes on the heels of an announcement last month that his former girlfriend, [...]

Only Three Hundred Thirty Seven More Shopping Days

Sunday, March 4th, 2007

I was at the library the other day and they were taking down the Black History Month bulletin board display. Packing away black history in a box until next year like it was Christmas lights or a manger scene.
Can’t you just imagine a neighborhood some place where a housewife is looking out the [...]
