NY Mets, NY Jets and The Red Devils

Pujol’s 2000th RBI, Bubba Wallace and the Fan Favorite Players
EL BARRIO, EL FALLS – It was fitting that the text I got from Short Matt was picture of Kim Jong-Un, waiting eagerly for something. Short Matt runs this place similar to a Korean work camp with no food – no pay and being demanding. He also sent a recommendation for a topic which I […]

ARLINGTON, TX – With the NFL draft approaching, MLB off and running, the NCAA Final Four locked and loaded, and the NHL and NBA coming down the home stretch, there is plenty to talk about.

Zinedine Zidane, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer An Red Bull New York
EL BARRIO, EL FALLS: So, our very own Ben Whitney thinks I spend too much time on my first paragraph. Apparently I should not be informing and setting the tone. If Ben had a customary style to how he started I would mock him to but I will leave him to his hodge-podge openings. Anyway, […]

Jose Reyes Curse, NBA Playoffs, Rooting Against Your Soccer Team, Peeing on Laptops
EL BARRIO, EL BRONX – I spent this week doing some work with my brother, who is in jail for racketeering. That, and the fact that my oft-dropped-in-drunken-stumbles phone finally died, meant I was forced to rely on the newspaper (Bing it) for a quick glance topics to write about. Then my pencil broke. Further, […]
Living With A Non-Sports Fan: Mets Win the NL Pennant
EL BARRIO, LA BRONX – I don’t talk about my wife much because I try to be a private person. However, the newly minted Mrs. Blaber is full of hysterical one-liners. Keeping these “zingers” under wraps just isn’t fair to anyone. Many of her funny comments are about the sports I love, and many occur […]
