Owens brought misery on himself

2012-02-14T14:46:00.000-08:00

How fitting is the subject line? he couldn't be more dead on. Nice article on what T.O. should have done vs what he didn't do. Another athlete who made millions, pissed it away and now wonders why he can't get a job.

No empathy from me T.O. you brought it all on yourself.

FBI File on Steve Jobs Notes Use of LSD, Dishonesty

2012-02-09T14:46:00.000-08:00

Some interesting reading about Jobs you may or may not have known. His drug use has been well documented and by his own admission but, the death and bomb threats against him along with the top security clearance background checks make for some good reading.

“Oil Can” Boyd Admits to Pitching While Under the Influence

2012-02-09T11:54:00.000-08:00

How great is this, yet another athlete from the late 70's and 80's era on cocaine or some form of a hallucinogenic drug while performing their craft. Were the powers at be back in the day completely naive or did they just turn a blind eye. I think we all agree we knew there were no angels back in this era but come on now, I believe the so called steroid era is small potatoes compared to these boys.

Coca-Cola's 4Q results beat expectations

2012-02-09T11:00:00.000-08:00

Anytime I can throw something about the company I work for into the blog it's always a good thing. Especially finishing up the great year we had. Now known as CCR(Coca-Cola Refreshments) and with the recent buying of the bottling business(basically buying back what we spun off over 30 years ago) CCR is poised for long term growth, profitability and sustainment. Which is a good thing for share holders like myself.

Super Bowl XLVI Gigapan

2012-02-08T16:06:00.000-08:00

This post is for all of my tech buddies and geek squad employees. I guess what else is there to do at the Super Bowl.

This is actually pretty cool.

Rob Gronkowski called out

2012-02-08T15:19:00.000-08:00

Are you freakin kidding me ! I can't believe the negative run that Gronkowski is getting. Let's see, I'm pretty sure he is pissed because they lost the Super Bowl and I'm pretty sure he is equally as pissed for not contributing to the team. So, this means he must go home and be ticked off at the world, pout like a kid and not doing thing until next season.

Give me a break! From my understanding this was a private party. Since when is it morally wrong to enjoy yourself? As far as the hypocrites who are calling Gronkowski out, shut up, get off of your soap box and quit sucking up to your employer for fear that there will be repercussions.

Go ahead Gronk, give your groove on!

Miami Hurricanes Football: Top Coaches in the History of "The U"

2012-02-08T15:06:00.000-08:00

Every once and awhile I need to throw my Canes buddies an article that gets their juices flowing. Since I have personally had this debate over a few adult beverages with them I thought it would be nice to let the so called experts weigh in.

College Basketball: 10 Teams Who Will Be Exposed Come Tournament Time

2012-02-08T14:55:00.000-08:00

With the tournament right around the corner and unless you are a basketball junkie, you probably haven't seen too much college basketball this year. Outside of the Super Bowl, the NCAA March Madness Tournament is the next most gambled on event in the country.

So, for those of you who need to get up with what has happened and what the so called experts are predicting for the balance of the year, you may want to start by reading this article.

BP ups dividend as profits rise

2012-02-07T16:49:00.000-08:00

So much for the 4.9 billion dollar loss in 2010. With oil continuing to hover around $100 a barrel,was there any doubt that BP would be profitable in 2011. Remember when oil use to be around $20 not so long ago? How does the same oil literally cost 5x as much as it did a few years ago. Hmmm

Wisconsin’s Bielema Questions Urban Meyer’s Recruiting

2012-02-02T15:59:00.000-08:00

Wa Wa Wa Wa, they took my ball and now I can't play. Seriously, you lose a recruit you should have probably never had in the first place and now your going to whine about it! Please.

Jealousy will get you nowhere.

Phil Mickelson offers to redesign Torrey Pines North Course for free

2012-02-01T16:26:00.000-08:00

How awesome is this? I would expect nothing less from Phil. Truly a class act. While Tiger was being anything but himself, which I don't need to go into details, Phil was playing second fiddle on and off the course.

Well, we all have seen how everything has played out over the last couple of years. It's nice to see Phil take the spot light for being Phil and the character person he has always been.

Tiger could learn a big lesson from Phil, be yourself, don't be something or someone you are not because everyone will see right through you for the fraud that you are.

Just for the the record, Tiger still hasn't figured this out.

Tracy Howard to Miami? Don't discount it.

2012-01-31T16:34:00.000-08:00

With signing day just about here and every school making a last minute push, there is no school that could use a boost more from a recruit than the "U". Tracy Howard, out of Miramar is arguably the best CB in the country and oh by the way, he's right in Miami's backyard. Coach Golden and the U faithful would love to have Mr. Howard playing in "No Life Stadium" on Saturdays.

Sorry, couldn't help but take a shot at my beloved Dolphins.

Six dazzling Super Bowl meat stadiums

2012-01-31T16:16:00.000-08:00

Ok, I promise this will be the last entry making reference to the Super Bowl but, I thought this was pretty cool. I typically shut down all TV and radio when it comes to this time of the year. Me personally, the lead up to the big game usually makes me what to throw up.

Prince Fielder signs with the Tigers

2012-01-24T15:49:00.000-08:00

Big pick up by the Tigers, especially with Martinez going down. With their rotation and the addition of Prince, they will be a force to reckon with this year.
