As I’m watching the Red Sox collapse in the American League East, I’ll give you an update tonight. What happened to LC and the 38Cliches blog this past week has started me on a massive backup of this site. I’ve already started up a mirror site at WordPress so if I lose this, I’ll be […]

Time to give you some links on this Monday morning. USA Today’s Michael McCarthy says the Cameragate story isn’t over until the media says it is. That’s true, unfortunately. Phil Mushnick in the New York Post says the lawsuit against Isiah Thomas and Madison Square Garden is forcing the defendants to say, “We’re really lousy […]

If you’re a subscriber to DirecTV and its NFL Sunday Ticket Superfan service, you’re eligible to watch games online through Supercast. Now on Sunday, I and many subscribers had difficulty accessing the site. I chronicled this twice on Sunday. I’ve sent e-mails to their public relations department to get an answer, but so far, no […]

As I recorded the Appalachian State-Michigan game off the Big Ten Network, listened to the Red Sox off the internet and kept tabs of the Indy-Saints game from NFL Gamecenter, plus occasionally surfing to US Open.org, this has turned into one of the busier nights in sports of the year. Let’s do some links for […]

Kind of slow on this Tuesday afternoon, but I still try to find links for you because you’re a loyal visitor. Well, CNBC’s Darren Rovell is officially smitten with Ana Ivanovic. He has another post on her, this one on her sponsor on the WTA Tour. And in case you’re skeptical about Ana’s beauty (you […]

I turned on WEEI this morning to see if the contract dispute between the radio station and morning show hosts Dennis & Callahan had been settled and in D & C’s place were John Rooke and Larry Johnson. I’ve worked with Rooke and he’s good as usual. There’s a reason why Larry is usually on […]

Good evening. Barry Bonds isn’t playing tonight so there’s no need to watch the Braves-Giants game on TBS. So instead, I’m watching Ninja Warrior on G4. Very entertaining indeed. The Sports Media Watch blog has a good entry today on the NBA referee gambling scandal. While some media pundits feel this spells the end of […]

Ok, I wasn’t going to provide an update, but since I have no schedule, why not? First, Neil Best of Newsday has found out a bit more on MLB punishing ESPN for breaking the All-Star Game announcement embargo while TBS was doing it on the official MLB show on Sunday. He got an update late […]

Since I wasn’t able to provide links this morning, I’ll give you some now. No Dan Patrick today and thinking about it, he’ll probably be back on Monday so we’ll get our big announcement then. Onto other stuff. I love juicy gossip on the sports biz. Neil Best in his Newsday blog says MLB is […]

A few links for you late Wednesday afternoon. The New York Times blog called “The Lede” has constructed its own timeline on the murder-suicide of WWE wrestler Chris Benoit. This story becomes more bizarre with each passing day and it now appears the WWE knew details of the murder as its three hour tribute to […]

Recovering after being out for a day. A few things for today. Against my better judgment, I bought the De La Hoya-Mayweather fight from DirecTV. I joined in the 7th round. It turned out to be a better fight than I expected. But also, I wanted to see what may be one of the last […]
