Channel Surfing

Christmas came early for the Gifford household this year (me and my dad), my dad won a LCD HDTV at his company Christmas party this past Saturday, and subsequently, we upgraded our cable package. So we now get all the HD channels plus a bunch of other channels we didn’t get before. Included in the “bunch of other channels we [read more...]

The BCS is BS

I hate the BCS. I despise the BCS. What I want out of a computer: the ability to find my porn in under a minute, the ability find the Jersey Shore preview on You Tube where one of the “guidettes” gets cold-cocked in the face, and the opportunity to waste endless hours looking up random things on Wikipedia. What I [read more...]

Tiger Did It, Now No One Can’t

To use the words “prophet” and “Charles Barkley” in the same sentence might get you weird looks from some, if not most. But I will use those two items in the same sentence. Charles Barkley was a prophet during his 1993 Nike commercial when he said: “ I am not a role model. I am not paid to be a [read more...]

The Name Game

Living in New England for the last week, you either have to be under a rock, kidnapped and in an abandoned shed, or watching Dancing With The Stars to have not heard the phrase "4th and 2". In addition, after you hear that phrase you almost expect to hear a body hit the ground or a gun to go off [read more...]

New York Yankees: The New Red Sox

Being a Red Sox fan, I know that making comparisons between the New York Yankees and Boston Red Sox is blasphemy at its finest. Yankee fans want nothing to do with Red Sox comparisons and vice versa. It’s like comparing an elegant, captivating, and downright gorgeous woman (Red Sox) to her ugly, monotonous, and downright rod-shrinking sister (Yankees). It’s like [read more...]

NBA Preview: Southwest Division

Four down, two to go!!! No time for chit chatter. Let’s go! Western Conference Southwest Division 1. San Antonio Spurs 2. Dallas Mavericks 3. Houston Rockets 4. New Orleans Hornets 5. Memphis Grizzlies 1. San Antonio Spurs (61-21) In my opinion, this is the only team that can prevent the Lakers from going to the NBA Finals for the third straight year. The [read more...]

NBA Preview: Northwest Division

I understand that the season’s already started, but I’m determined to finish the second half of my NBA Preview this week. I know I said I wanted to finish last week, and I didn’t. I know I’m saying that I’ll finish this week, but I promise you (my readers), that I WILL finish this preview and you will be entertained [read more...]

NBA Preview: Central Division

Gotta get all these out by Wednesday or Thursday, so let’s get it on!!!!! NBA Eastern Central Division 1. Cleveland Cavaliers 2. Chicago Bulls 3. Detroit Pistons 4. Indiana Pacers 5. Milwaukee Bucks 1. Cleveland Cavaliers (61-20) I understand that the Celtics have KG back healthy and Orlando possibly (I say possibly because it’s a crap shoot) added some more fire power [read more...]

NBA Preview: Atlantic Division

So before I get this started, “props” (whatever those are) to my friend Ross Caisse who asked me to get an NBA preview going before the season starts on Tuesday. I needed a kick in the ass to write one of these, and he was the guy. (At this point in writing the column I pound my chest with [read more...]

UFC 104: Machida vs. Shogun

On Saturday Night, UFC Light Heavyweight Champion Lyoto "The Dragon" Machida will do battle with No. 1 Contender Mauricio "Shogun" Rua at the Staples Center in Los Angeles, California. I believe that this fight has the potential to be the most entertaining fight of the year. That's a pretty bold statement considering this year we've seen Penn vs. St Pierre [read more...]
