It’s the Good Friday Brawl that took place at the old Montreal Forum between the Montreal Canadiens and the old Quebec Nordiques in the NHL Adams Division semifinals. Until Gary Bettman corrected the Divisional playoff […]

Once again, the extremely talented puddin at Reality Fan Forum has posted another CBS promo for this Sunday’s episode of The Amazing Race 14. I speculate that Kisha & Jen and Mark & Michael have lost their passports. Margie & Luke along with Tammy & Victor are racing for first place at the mat. Take […]

In what can be described as only a good move, NFL.com will be streaming NFL Network’s coverage of the Draft later this month. I think this is good. While it’s not good in its battle with big cable, it allows fans to get an alternative to ESPN’s coverage. I’ve watched NFL Network’s coverage and I […]

It’s been almost two weeks since we’ve had an Amazing Race episode (thank you, CBS … grrrrr) and the promos for this Sunday’s episode have been few and far between. Why is that? You would think the network bigwigs would want to promote the show to remind people that the show is back this week. […]

Another crazy episode of Lost tonight with the Smoke Monster somehow sparing Ben, but Alex returned to threaten him. Nice. I like it! And Alex seemed hotter, I don’t know why. But we still don’t know if Ben killed Penny. It appeared that Desmond saved her from being murdered by Mr. Linus, but ol’ Ben […]
