If you notice some changes around here, then I guess you are (A) observant (B) more than a casual reader (C) have a sharp eye for this sort of thing. I needed to do some minor version upgrades to the site (using wordpress), so I also decided to put on a new layout. Not sure [...]

Thrashing about

No comments

I written enough about HD and my Sony BRAVIA KDL-40V2500 for everyone to know I think the TV is wonderful for HD viewing pleasure.  However, no matter how good the HD broadcast, I still cannot get into hockey.  I tried to watch some of the Rangers/Thrashers game yesterday, but I just cannot seem to hit [...]

F1 weekend

2 comments

I watched some F1 for the first time this year; actually watching the closing laps of the Bahrain Grand Prix as I write this entry. Like the great masses, I enjoy watching Ferrari run up front; I think it is good for the sport because it gives everyone someone to love or hate (depending on [...]

So the Falcons are going to sign Harrington to a two-year deal to compete for the backup QB spot. Joy; exciting news. Saturday and Sunday proved to be great for HD sports viewing. I finally got to see the Braves in full HD glory as part of Saturday’s FOX broadcasts, parts of two MLS games, [...]

Adrian Peterson to ATL?

No comments

I thought this was an interesting Falcons article at squibkick: “There have even been suggestions that Petrino likes Adrian Peterson in the draft, because Warrick Dunn has been around for 10 years and Jerious Norwood is not his kind of back.” The Falcons have so many needs that I am not really sure where they [...]

Cold Easter

No comments

Easter weekend brings low 30s to Columbus, GA.  What is up with the cold stuff? Last night was Locos night, which means a good amount of Sweet Water 420, some of the best beer going down these days.  Lemon pepper wings go down great with the 420; awesome combination.  Of course the nice thing about [...]

Gillispie Gone

3 comments

In a glass half full sort of reasoning I’m kind of happy Billy Gillispie is moving to Kentucky.  I’m just tired of our head coach being linked to every single college basketball opening.  This way we at least know we’ll get two or three seasons out of his replacement.  Or so the logic goes… Aggies [...]

Wow. Altman (and I have no idea who the hell he is), the coach of Creighton (who? where?) turns down the Razorbacks basketball job. It is no secret that I am not a Hogs fan, and I just know that somewhere my dad is having a good chuckle over this one: Altman was believed to [...]

OSU PWNED

No comments

To be honest I didn’t watch the game and played World of Warcraft instead last night.  Ohio State didn’t really have a chance in this game since the outcome wasn’t much in doubt.  I did record it in case OSU made it interesting, but did anybody really believe they could beat 2007′s version of the [...]

Random Braves Links

No comments

With opening day just around the corner (tomorrow for the Braves), I thought I would post a few random Braves links. In no particular order of interests: Braves Journal – no real roster surprises. Braves-Nation – random predictions are not very useful, but sometimes entertaining. Rowland’s Office – funny Red Sox rant. Talking Chop – [...]

More useless information

No comments

Tomorrow Charter is adding ESPN2 HD, so more and more HD broadcasts are in my future. Too bad ESPN2 HD is not arriving in time for opening day, but it is a long season. NL Quick Picks: Braves take the East (homer pick, sue me), Cardinals in the Central, Dodgers in the West, and the [...]
