Ironman, I’m Not

December 3, 2014

All I ever did as a kid was play outdoor games. Almost any game would do. Preferably a sport that included a ball. There, too, almost any size and shape of ball would fit the bill. Give me a ball, a couple of friends and our afternoon was set. Weather was a non-issue. Hell, a […]

The Four Seasons

Having grown up in northern Wisconsin I’ve always had the opportunity to celebrate the changing of the seasons. Each one has it’s merits but for me, summer is chief. Simply put, the warmer the better. I loath most days that begin and end in darkness with only sub-zero temperatures in between. There’s no doubt that […]

(the following is purely a fictional article, a la “The Onion”    Make no mistake) Green Bay WI:   After all is said and done. After all the games have been played. After all the awards have been given and the championships won, it’s finally come to light: Aaron Rodgers, as has been suggested by […]

March Madness Winners?

The day after. The hangover begins. The NCAA tournament has concluded for another year. Everyone’s brackets have been tossed into the recyclable bin and only a token few have an extra sawbuck to show for it. Fun though. However, does anyone else have a sour taste in their mouths? I mean, The University of Connecticut […]

Golf-A Good Walk Spoiled (thanks to John Feinstein)

Golf … a gentleman’s game. Really? Says who? I grew up running, jumping, hiding, climbing, anything that included the wet act of sweating. I’m not sure if I actually enjoyed the dampness or did I just like the physical activity? I imagine that it was the latter but one never knows. Sports was all I […]

Hey, how’s it going? Have you been keeping up to date with the NCAA Mens Tourney? If you’re anything like me, you really have had no choice. I’m a sports fan. I love it. It’s cool because of the way we’ve been able to get EVERYONE involved in the tourney. Not me, exactly but with having […]

In my defense …

My father was a dentist. To me, my dad was a great man. I am truly uncertain as to how else I can convey just how much I admired him. Not only was he an only child but unfortunately, due to an illness just prior to his birth, my father never had the pleasure of […]

DVR vs Daytona

The final fan has finally exited Jerry Jones’ Death Star architectural marvel (aside from a few ‘cheap seats’ that are now going for thousands, in retrospect) and the sporting world is impatiently loitering for the next big thing. Thankfully the Swimsuit issue has eased that pain for most of the masses and yet there’s still […]

McCarthy’s Way

A new controversy has surfaced during “The Return To Titletown” week and it occurred almost immediately following the sound of the final horn. During the celebration, the mayor of our fair city decided that a name change of a ‘major artery’ thoroughfare was in store for our head coach. He promptly held up a street […]
