I suppose ESPN’s Josina Anderson does not read her own company’s flagship weekly magazine. If she did, she might have come across this story from the annual “Body Issue.” Headline: “The team shower is a place of celebration, fellowship and naked dance-offs… What it’s not? A place hostile to Michael Sam.” So on the one […] Read more
I’m sorry, but did I miss something? When did Brandon Merriweather become Ronnie Lott in his prime? You would think by the way Merriweather’s teammates are reacting, his two-game suspension is the most un-just ruling in the history of sport. DeAngelo Hall led the “kids-in-the-back-seat complaining” act by tweeting: “Preseason sucks. They want to act […] Read more
They paid $44 million for this guy in 2012. A barrel chested dope, who has somehow fallen into the driver’s seat of a $9 billion-dollar a year company that is impossible to sink. Impossible. How many qualified CEO’s of other companies are looking at Roger Goodell now and slamming their fists through the drywall in […] Read more

Radio fascinates me. Despite the fact I’ve been doing it my entire professional life. I have a “trick” to doing my show. It goes something like this. PRETEND NOBODY IS LISTENING. That’s right. Pretend like it’s just you and the fellas, shootin’ the shit. It helps to make it as natural as possible. And it […] Read more
In principle, there’s nothing wrong with the NFL pre-season. At four games in length (five if you play in the Hall of Fame game) it’s maybe one game too long, but at lot better than six game march-to-boredom that existed back when there was just a 14 game regular season. Pre-season games are necessary. New […] Read more
Hasn’t everyone heard their dad say: “It’s all fun and games until……” And you can fill in the blank. – Somebody loses an eye – You crack your skull wide open – Your finger gets cut in half And so on, and so forth. Dads were – and are – good at assessing and minimizing […] Read more
First, let’s remember where this year started for Rory. Getting beat by a marker. Hard to imagine, but yes, a mere gentleman-amatuer by the name of Jeff Knox clipped Rory by a stroke on Saturday at The Masters. That was back when his fiancee had pink hair, and was lovingly toting his forged blades around […] Read more
Most of the time, The Golf Channel’s “Live From…” shows at majors are a mostly tepid un-spooling of popular golf cliches and hearty praise for whomever is playing well that week. But sometimes…. THIS HAPPENS. For once, I really enjoyed a heated debate about something that does matter in golf: what the F is wrong […] Read more
