Tuesday Night Links

I’ll do some links as I watch Real Sports with Bryant Gumbel. Bruce Allen of the Boston Sports Media Watch conducts an interview with Albert Breer of the Sporting News, formerly a reporter in both Boston and Dallas and Bruce asks him about which team gets covered more, the Red Sox or the Cowboys. CNBC’s […]

NFL-Related Press Releases

I have another press release post, this one dedicated to the NFL. First, CBS tells us what’s in store for The NFL Today this Thanksgiving Day in advance of the Tennessee-Detroit game. “THE NFL TODAY” PREVIEWS THANKSGIVING DAY TENNESSEE-DETROIT GAME WITH FEATURE ONTITANS’ AHMARD HALL ON THURSDAY, NOV. 27 THE NFL ON CBS, broadcasting its […]

A Plethora of Press Releases

Since I did not want to take a full hour to give you press releases during the day, I figured I would do it at night when I have a fast computer to work with. And I have a bunch to give you. So let’s get right to them. First, TNT tells us what’s in […]

Test Post

Testing out a post from my phone. Checking to see if this works. Sent from my iPhone. EDITED TO ADD – It works! Nice.

Mayne Street, Part 5

This is the 5th installment of the so-so web series, Mayne Street. I’ll continue to post them through its conclusion. In this webisode, Kenny prepares for SportsCenter five minutes before air just like any good SportsCenter anchor would. We love Alison Becker as Sarah. “Kenny!!!! Where are your pants????” This is definitely the funniest of […]

I’ll provide some links today. I hope they don’t take long because I have a lot to do. USA Today’s Michael Hiestand has a look at the ratings from various events over the weekend. Over to CNBC’s Darren Rovell who reacts to the news regarding General Motors’ dropping of Tiger Woods as a sponsor. Darren […]

Quick Thoughts on Real Sports for 11/25/2008

I received a DVD preview for the latest edition of HBO’s Real Sports that will air on Tuesday at 10 p.m. I’ve seen two of the stories that air in the newest edition, but the one that has struck me the most is the one on Andrew Lawson of Norwell, MA. Born with Down’s Syndrome, […]

Some Monday Night Links

My computer problems aren’t fixed, but I did steal my mother’s Mac from her house (don’t worry, she has another computer, she’s not using the Mac). I’ll give you some links tonight. Not a whole lot, but enough for a nice update. Starting with Newsday’s Neil Best, he transcribes a conversation between WFAN’s Mike Francesa […]

Monday Press Releases

I have some press releases in my inbox and I’ll provide them here for you. This work computer is like molasses and is just awful. I hope to have this whole thing rectified within a week. Here is quotage from NFL Network’s NFL Gameday Final last night. Week 12 (Nov. 23, 2008) – Quotable from […]

Some Monday Links

Just to let you know, blogging will be at a minimum over the next couple of weeks as I have to send my Acer notebook computer out to get fixed (something wrong with the power connection) so I’ll try to blog whenever I can from other computers. So annoying when this happens. I’m blogging from […]

NFL Flexes in Week 14

As expected, the NFL has used its muscles to flex the Patriots-Seattle game out of primetime and put Washington-Baltimore in its place. Notice that we have 6 late games which is something I like. Kind of strange for CBS to have 4 games at 4:05 p.m ET and Fox just has two late games at […]

Quotes from The Sunday NFL Pregame Shows, Except The NFL Today

Just when I thought I had everything squared away with CBS Sports, I find that I don’t have a press release from them on today’s edition of the NFL Today. However, the NFL did send me a release on quotage from NFL Gameday Morning from the NFL Network, so for that I’m grateful. And since […]

Here are the results of the latest episode of The Amazing Race 13. 1. Toni & Dallas2. Ken & Tina3. Nick & Starr4. Andrew & Dan – Still in the race due to a non-elimination leg. How these guys are still in this race is beyond me.

Sunday Links

As I get ready to run some errands and listen to the NFL on Sirius Satellite Radio, I’m going to give you some links. We start with dueling columns and that’s always fun to have in the links. Neil Best of Newsday has an extensive sit-down interview with WFAN’s Mike Francesa as he discusses the […]

Videos of the Week: 1990's Dance Party, Part 4

Ok, unless something major happens, I plan for this segment to be the last 1990’s video dance party post for a few weeks. However, I do have a lot to cover. Next week, I move onto a new subject and it’s going to quite interesting, but that’s next week. First, we do our fourth installment […]

Jericho Is Back!

Albeit in reruns on The CW, but starting November 30, the first season of Jericho will be on at 7 p.m. Sundays. It’s wishful thinking on my part, but perhaps if the ratings do well enough, maybe we can get that third season we’ve all been waiting for? The CW had outsourced its Sunday primetime […]
