How about those Bulls, huh? Congratulations to them for beating the Miami Heat and ending their remarkable streak. It’s no 72-10 record, but Miami’s run was still quite amazing. The fact that we were able to do it without Derrick Rose and Joakim Noah makes me optimistic for the playoffs. I hope they can both [...] Okay, I’m back from my conference. I’ll talk more about that later. You’ve been waiting anxiously for over a week for the blockbuster Top Ten. Let’s finish up this countdown once and for all. Need a refresher? Follow the links! #50-41, #40-31, #30-21, and #20-11. #10 1993 Upper Deck Looney Tunes Bugs Bunny Hare-os #BBH3 – [...] I thought I would sneak in another post in between episodes of my Jordan cards countdown, but it’s not meant to be. Too many things to get done before leaving. Need a refresher? Follow the links! #50-41, #40-31, and #30-21. If you thought what you saw before was good, just you wait. We’re past the halfway [...] Welcome to part 3 of my Jordan cards countdown. If you want/need to catch up, you can find #50-41 here & #40-31 here. Tonight is the Oscars and Walking Dead, so when you read this on Monday know that I’m trying my damnedest to finish up the countdown by the end of the week. I’m leaving town on [...] Welcome to part 2 of my Jordan cards countdown. If you want/need to catch up, you can find #50-41 here. As I was writing up this post, I got a package from Cards on Cards that included a few more new Jordans in it. There were also a lot of other really cool b-ball goodies [...] Now that we’ve let my last article simmer a little bit, I think we’re all ready for something a little lighter and fun. Maybe I’ll start a discussion of another type. Sunday, February 17th, 2013 marked Michael Jordan’s 50th birthday. But you knew all of that already, I’m sure. If you’ve turned on any sports [...] I’m not a poker player. Sure, I’ve played poker. I think everyone that went to college in the early 2000s played poker. Poker was everywhere in our society. ESPN made it a “sport” (which it’s not). Celebrities would play it on television and people actually watched. The residual effects are still being seen with Annie [...] Why am I so excited about college basketball? A few reasons. 1) My Chicago Bulls aren’t likely to be too fun to watch until Derrick Rose returns from injury. 2) I think the college game is simultaneously infinitely more fun and infinitely more frustrating to watch due to the raw passion and hustle and lack [...] Let’s compare something shall we? McDonald's was a little early with the label Frank Thomas – Two Time MVP Award Winner 2 MVP awards means 2 pictures Versus Not so fast, 80s graphic! Tony Gwynn – Zero-Time MVP Award Winner I know these two were never in direct competition for the award, [...] |
