This is one of my favorite 1990’s bands. Their CD, Throwing Copper, is one of the best I have ever listened to from beginning to end. So I’ll give you three or four songs from Live. Great songs. And when DirecTV played one of their recent concerts in Amsterdam, I was reminded how much I […]

Since last week was the debut of “The Adventures of Digger and Friends” on Fox’s NASCAR coverage, let’s go to one of the cartoons that probably started this whole Fox trend of using animated characters to help promote its sports properties. As a kid, I got to watch Peter Puck when NBC had the NHL […]

Let’s give you some links on this Saturday. I have some work to do, but I’ll get the linkage out of the way first. Rarely do I start the links with Barry Horn, but I’m going to today. He writes in his weekly column that the NFL is back with the Scouting Combine, all of […]

To show you that some of the best TV programming goes overseas, well, in this case, maybe not so best, Wipeout which has had decent ratings on ABC is on the BBC. There are a lot of the same tasks, the punching wall, the big rubber balls, the sarcastic commentary. Here’s a preview of the […]

CBS has posted the second installment of Phil’s Video Diary and the production crew is in Germany (not Austria as the video and crew state), but Phil is a bit giddy after non-stop travel for four days so as you can see, he’s forgotten where he is. Understandable. This is for the second episode of […]

In one of the strangest videos I’ve ever seen, TV station WECT in Wilmington, NC had to resort to using a dry erase board during its 11 p.m. sportscast on Thursday. The newscast apparently lost its graphics and tape so the sports anchor read scores from a high school basketball tournament while the news anchor […]
