Michael Floyd...
Has the pleasure of knowing that any field anywhere he steps on, he is immediately the best athlete. Too bad all the pieces weren’t in place around this kid b/c ND would have their 12th Heisman winner!

The Great War Memorial and more →
If you haven’t heard of him, he’s Frank Buckles, 109 year old (1 Feb, 110 y.o.) WWI veteran. The last known survivor of the War to End All Wars, at least this side of the pond. What a life, 109 years! Still, even at that length, it saddens me to think that there are literally only a handful of people in the world who fought in World War I. Unbelievable that I will most likely live in a...

Case-in-point, my Metro ride ends at the Rosslyn Station. The DC Metro is a wonderful daily adventure and this morning’s climax was met by a formidable adversary, the non-working third longest escalator in the world, according...

SHOW SOME RESPECT!
Will somebody, outside of Central Texas that is, PLEASE show a little bit of love to the San Antonio Spurs already?! What do they have to do? After playing their third back-to-backer this season, after going 22-3, after blowing out folks, comeback wins, and last-second shots, what on this friggin’ planet do they have to do for Sir Chuck to call them a good team!? Even immediately before the...
NCAA Saturday
Interesting, the 4 teams I follow are matched up against each other in two games…
Washington @ Texas A&M
Gonzaga @ Notre Dame
Ags need the win more than U Dub. UW will roll through the Pac10 where A&M will have a tougher road.
On the other hand, even though Gonzaga will do the same in the WCC save for St. Mary’s, the need the non-con win more than ND does. ND will do...
