With Pro-Life Commercial, Tim Tebow’s First Lesson as a Pro Might Be a Hard One

Tim Tebow and mother Pam on Senior Day at the University of Florida. During Super Bowl XLIV an ad featuring Tim Tebow is set to appear. It isn’t a Nike or an NFL ad. “It” is an anti-choice advertisement detailing alleged events of his mother’s pregnancy before she birthed the soon-to-be NFL draft pick. In the ad Tebow will tell of his [read more...]

A Short Note on the Death of Air America (yeah, there’s a sports mention, too)

Al Franken represented well Air America's 21st century self-absorbed liberal viewpoint. Air America died. Upon hearing the news Markos Moulitsas of the Daily Kos asked sardonically, “Air America was still really on the air?” The same could easily apply to the Kos. A.A. died for the same reason the Daily Kos is irrelevant, and the same reason The Huffington Post and The [read more...]

Short Note: HuffPo Sports, Daily Beast and Posner? Sure – Meet the New Boss, Same As the Old Boss

This is why there is no such animal as an “independent media.” Both Arianna Hufington and Tina Brown of the Daily Beast are sheep-dipped shills for the ruination of American society. Let’s check the quote, sports, headlines for Tuesday’s HuffPo: Florida Sportscaster Charged with Chld Porn Distribution PHOTOS: Did Three MSU Recruits Visit Strip Club? WATCH: Bobsledder’s Bodysuit Splits Before Big Race HuffPo also has [read more...]

Lane Kiffin: There’s a Stench Emanating from Knoxville and It’s Not the Smell of Burning Mattresses

Tennessee AD Mike Hamilton can't understand why Lane Kiffin would leave the Vols - or so ESPN would have you believe. Why is everyone tripping about Lane Kiffin’s jump to USC? Over 1000 students at the University of Tennessee held candlelight vigils, burned mattresses and other sundry flammable items outside the Neyland-Thompson Sports Complex like it was a 1968 Vietnam-era campus protest [read more...]

Explaining Eldrick Woods; Explaining Tiger Woods

Yikes! To whomever continues to confuse Tiger woods’ acts of infidelity with his treatment in the media… From the end statements of my previous Tiger Woods commentary I hope it is apparent that I do not condone Tiger Woods’ actions. Because I have written here for over three years and what was written elsewhere is archived here – and have a very [read more...]

Tiger Woods Latest: Why Reporting of a New Woman Shows the “Tick Press” Faction – and America – at Its Worst

To editorialize, I hate TMZ, People Magazine, the National Enquirer, US Weekly, and any other base, classless, piece of turd magazine that makes its money off of “dishing the dirt” on “celebrities.” I do not mean “hate on,” I mean, I despise of them, the people who work for them and the company-corporate – and more – interests behind them. [read more...]

Whitlock’s Apology; Football Motivation, 21st Century-Style; Paying for Content Is Here

And so Jason Whitlock caved. Though he’ll never admit it – he certainly attempted to put on a brave face in his latest Fox Sports offering – he folded like pretty Christmas wrapping paper around a gift. The only problem is, he packaged himself: Let me first apologize to Rush Limbaugh. Last week in explaining why NFL commissioner Roger Goodell needed to put [read more...]

Sports Media Note: Soon Everyone Must Pay for Content

Noting the headline, thank you for those who have recently contributed money to SOMM. With that said, the following represents the overwhelming sentiment of those in mainstream media: The message from some of the world’s leading news providers at the first Beijing international media summit was clear: It’s time to demand payment for online use of content. After free-falling profits and massive [read more...]

Time for NBC, Sprint to Cut Ties with Mike Florio and His Pro Football Talk Blog

Mike Florio of the now-NBC and Sprint-affiliated Pro Football Talk (PFT) is a real life Sharon Stone. The NFL Internet rumor monger whose PFT blog became all the rage when he fed all manner of White terror fantasies relative to Black men with his lurid descriptions of Michael Vick during the dog fighting investigations of Vick, has finally leaped over [read more...]

SOMM Money Bomb Thanks and a Message…

Money Bomb thanks go out to VM and JG (again!). Thank you two so much. Folks, to let everyone know, the Money Bomb is not going as planned in that it has not been received as well as planned. Am I disheartened? Yeah, a bit. You readers out there know, I think, that, despite my best efforts and the efforts of [read more...]
