NHL Playoffs: Bourbon, Cross-Checks, Beards, Babes and Blood
BLOOMINGBURG, NY – As many of you know, bourbon is my drink of choice and hockey is my drug of choice. I overdosed on both yesterday as I watched the NHL Playoffs from three in the afternoon until early Sunday morning. As I watched the best sport on the planet I came away with a […]
Going To California. Sports World’s Biggest Flakes
BLOOMINGBURG, NY – Having just moved last week, it dawned on me that there have been some changes in locales in sports history that just left me a little befuddled. All of the confusion centers around the Golden State of California and the perpetual movement of sports teams that proves the overall flaky nature of […]
What’s Ahead? Not Much. Kentucky Derby, Opening Day, Stanley Cup. Meh?
MARLBORO, NY – Don’t focus on the past. “Think of what’s ahead of you,” is what motivational speakers would like to have us think in leading our lives. When it comes to sports, I’d really rather not think of what’s forthcoming because, quite frankly, it sucks for the most part. Maybe you feel differently but […]
St Paddy’s Day Special: Angel Hernandez, Odell Beckham, Nolan Ryan, Terry O’Reilly
Happy St. Patty’s Paddy’s Day! MARLBORO, NY – As the sports scene starts to heat up with NCAA Conference Tournaments and subsequent bids to March Madness there is also the NHL Playoffs home stretch, MLB’s Opening Day, and plenty of NFL-related news to think about and here are some of my random thoughts lately.

Golden Age of Wrestling, King Kong Bundy, Mickey Rourke, The Wrestler
MARLBORO, NY – With the passing of yet another iconic wrestler at a young age this past week in King Kong Bundy, I was reminded how much a fan of the fake sport I once was. It truly was the Golden Age of Wrestling, as the World Wrestling Federation had memorable characters and plot lines […]
WTF Sports Items: Bryce Harper, Jason Witten, Boston Bruins
MARLBORO, NY – Truth be told, I’m not the rabid sports junkie that I once was. I’m all about the games and less about pregame shows, scouting combines, trade rumors, et. al. Sometimes the more I think I know about sports the less I actually understand, too. Two items that happened this past week just […]
NFL, MLB Collusion? Colin Kaepernick, Eric Reed, Manny Machado, Bryce Harper
MARLBORO, NY – col·lu·sion //k??lo?oZH?n/ (noun); secret or illegal cooperation or conspiracy, especially in order to cheat or deceive others. This word seems to be permeating the sports scene as of late and more specifically the NFL and MLB. Colin Kaepernick and Eric Reid of the San Francisco 49ers received and accepted a settlement offer […]
National Pizza Day And The New York Sports Scene
MARLBORO, NY – Yesterday was National Pizza Day and while Chicago would disagree, New York is the best place to satisfy your pie craving in this country. What does this NYC food staple have to do with sports, you ask? Well, if the New York sports landscape were associated with all things pizza ,this is […]
Big Game Thoughts, SUPERB OWL Banter, FREE NFL Picks, Cheerleaders
MARLBORO, NY – The king of the 2018 NFL season will be crowned later on tonight and while I don’t have a horse in this race I, like many, will be rooting against the New England Patriots. For all it’s worth, the Pats are the 1970’s and 1990’s Dallas Cowboys –America’s Team To Hate. It […]
NHL Playoffs Hockey Resurrection, Game 7 Hopes, Superstitions, Maple Leafs vs Bruins
BLOOMINGBURG, NY – The Walking Boss of this site talked yesterday of sports resurrections. I’m adding my beloved Boston Bruins of this year’s NHL Stanley Cup Playoffs to the list. The B’s looked like they were dead to rites in a Game 5 loss to the Toronto Maple Leafs so much that I didn’t expect […]
