Has this ever happened to you? You’re sitting in your cube/office, morosely stirring creamer into a hot cup of coffee. Some perky bastard peeks his head in and says, “Hey, Bob (let’s assume your name’s Bob), you don’t look so good.” And you mumble, “I didn’t get much sleep last night,” and as the jackass…

Even with the score 6-3 at halftime you knew the Pats-Colts game was over. Because we’d seen this all before. The Colts fast-break offense cannot thrive on grass in cold weather, and the Patriots were able to disrupt Manning’s timing by three-quarters-of-a-smidge and render him a spent force. There may be no QB in NFL…

No sense in writing a whole review of the Tilt premiere, as its been done elsewhere and I’m a day late and a penny short. But after watching last night I do have some observations: As I watched last night I noticed 3 big dissimilarities between watching a dark, gritty drama on ESPN as opposed…

I wasn’t going to write about this, but it has a bit of a poker punchline so what the hell. Woke up this morning not feeling so hot. Upset stomach, no big deal. I mentioned to my wife that I hadn’t taken a sick day since last April, when I ended up in the hospital…

Before we get into my pathetic whining, we must send out huge congratulations to Hank, who has been hired by the obviously wise folks at Full Tilt Poker. It seems like huge news in the pokerblogger community comes nearly every day. Unfortunately, the post that follows does not fit in that category. Let’s not beat…

I’m sick of this template so I’m testing a few of the other ones Blogger offers to see if I like any of them any better. Brainiac that I am I forgot to copy and save my previous template, so when I started dicking around with the other ones I lost all my links and…
