I'll Have Another wins Preakness

2012-05-19T18:08:00.001-07:00

2 down 1 to go. How many times over the last 34 years have we said this, 11 to be exact? Once again we have a shot at the triple crown but, it isn't going to happen this year. Although "I'll Have Another" has won the first two legs, there will be no third. It takes an extremely special horse to run a 1 1/2 and I don't think he has what it takes, especially after seeing him run today. Look for Bodemeister to exact revenge and make up for a sub par year and disappointing run.

Buffett makes $142 million bet on newspaper industry

2012-05-17T15:34:00.000-07:00

Classic Buffet move. He has stated all along that the newspaper industry isn't dead. I think there will always be a place for the newspaper in the foreseeable future. This will be interesting to follow as the Baby Boomers and older generations meet mortality and are replaced by the current generation Y and technological born generation.

"We Talkin’ ’Bout Practice": Allen Iverson’s Famous Rant Was 10 Years Ago Today

2012-05-07T15:37:00.002-07:00

I would be doing a disservice if I didn't post the infamous Alan Iverson rant from 10 years ago today. Although the original version is about 30 minutes, you get the gist with the attached video.

Delta unit to acquire ConocoPhillips refinery in US

2012-05-01T17:30:00.000-07:00

Smart move. I'm really surprised it has taken the airline industry this long to look into this type of sourcing. Believe me, if this turns out like Delta and Phillips 66 is banking on, then it will only be a matter of time until others follow suite.

53 Year Old (takes fight on hour notice) vs 21 Year Old

2012-05-01T17:17:00.000-07:00

I couldn't help but pass this along. How great is this. You go to your local watering hole for a few cold ones and the next thing you know, your kicking the sh#* out of a 21 year old.

Classic!

MVP surprise for young Tigers fan

2012-05-01T16:59:00.001-07:00

I'm not a Tiger hater like so many but I do think he is a complete fraud. There are a certain group of people who are completely salivating over his complete meltdown and what he has lost over the last two years. Enough is enough. What Tiger needs to do is take a piece from Justin Verlander's book.

Hey Tiger, the attempt to warm up to the common folk through this latest and greatest video/impromptu presser was a joke. The obvious set up and the pain on your face of not wanting to be there is just another reason why you just don't get it.

Until you show a human side and not everything you do is staged, you'll get the reactions you deserve.

Nice touch Justin!

Hello, Friends! A Young Jim Nantz In A Hot Tub With John Stockton And The Utah Jazz

2012-04-30T16:05:00.000-07:00

I was perusing some of my favorite sites and came across this little nugget. All I can picture when I watch this video is Jim "present day" and that fake ass look he gives everyone during an interview. Also the fact that he comes across like a saint and he actually left his wife to bang a 28 year old intern at CBS.

PIZZA HUT ADDS CHEESEBURGERS TO THE CRUST

Seriously? Pizza Hut is getting a little out of control but, I couldn't say I wouldn't try it.

Next, you will be drinking your adult beverage of choice out of the crust. Hmm, that doesn't sound too bad. Kill two birds with one stone as they say.

Jaylon Smith Highlights - Full Ride Stud of the Week Interview

2012-04-24T15:06:00.000-07:00

Looks like it is coming down to Ohio State and Notre Dame for the nations #1 OLB. If I was a betting man, which I am, I like the Buckeyes chances of landing him. It doesn't hurt that his brother is already on the team.

If the Buckeyes land Smith there is no doubt that elevates Ohio State close to the top from a 2013 recruiting class perspective. There will be no doubt on the defensive side of the ball.

A great video with STP singing all of their hits "Unplugged". There are only a handful of bands that can pull of the unplugged sessions and STP is definitely one of them.

Grab a beer,cocktail, or your drink of choice, sit back and enjoy!
