NBA Playoffs: Heat v Celtics, Lakers v Nuggets, Jamal Murray, Tyler Herro, Pat Riley
SPANISH HARLEM – The NBA Conference Finals are upon us and as you would expect, each series is shaping up to be a great end to a longer season than any imagined. While most will have you believe that the NBA would love a Los Angeles Lakers and Boston Celtics Finals (I believe that too), […]
Autumnal Ward Wednesday: Vikes Stink, Giants & Jets Done, Mets Out. My Interest in Sports Dropping Like Leaves
BRONX, NY – Well, as of 9:30 am EST yesterday, it’s officially autumn. This season is one of the main reasons palookas like me live here in the Northeast. It’s the time of year that everything just seems so damn cozy—temperatures, clothes, your bed, even tucking yourself into a book. I’ll also be sure enjoy […]

Grinding Ax Edition: New Look NFL, Same Old LeBron
MONMOUTH COUNTY, NJ – With much vitriol and political utterances forcibly served up to football fans, the NFL attempts to placate it’s card-carrying members while biting their nails, hoping that we hang around. Can college football and hoops get here any faster? While the verdict on how much the league will lose must wait until season ticket […]
GOLF Is The Greatest Four-Letter Word & More Entertaining Sports Language
DENVER, CO – Next up in the scrambled, out-of-place 2020 sports schedule is the U.S. Open. For some reason, half of the readers of this site don’t consider golf to be a sport, so I won’t waste my breath on the affair. That being said, golf is the ultimate four letter word. Four letter words […]
Yankees Add Reinforcements, Nuggets Sink Clippers
SPANISH HARLEM – This is weird for me, my first baseball article of the season and it’s almost over. The New York Yankees have had their ups and downs but they look headed for the playoffs. They probably won’t win their division like I hoped but the important thing is to make the playoffs and […]

BRONX, NY – Today I’ve decided to kinda ping pong around and talk about a few different things, rather than laser-focusing my rage on something obvious like Kirk “F**king” Cousins or the latest foibles of New York’s 9-foot Monster Mayor. Even I can sometimes use a respite from the 24/7/365 rage-a-thon. So, let’s throw it into […]
Big Ben Tuesday: Go With It or Nah, That’s Horse Sh!t – Week One Knee-Jerks
STAMFORD, CT – Week 1 of the NFL season is usually pretty tough to predict. Throw in no preseason, no fans, players opting out, and plenty of player and coach movement, and this one was even tougher. We saw some expected dysfunctional teams looking quite functional (Jax, Wash), some powerhouses looking powerful (NO, Balt, KC), […]
Sports Rain Man: Bills Fan Pain, NY Mets, RIP Toots, Get Well The Dude
EL BARRIO, EL FALLS – Happy Monday… You know most of time when you’re fired, you’re not allowed to come back to work and the boss is not allowed to keep asking you for reports. But things are different here at MTM. After being fired from the regular Monday slot due to my inconsistencies of […]
