I’m not really watching that closely, but I am noticing that the United States is once again getting their butts kicked in the Ryder Cup. I think that if they want to win this thing they will probably have to move it to a place on the schedule where U.S. golfer are in prime condition.…

Going into tonights game I think we had gotten a little too confident. After winning last week without our two strongest players we felt assured that we were going to compete well tonight. Unfortunately, we just didn’t get going out of the chute fast enough and couldn’t catch up. We lost 6-9 to bring our…

If you don’t know the story of France’s Zidedine Zidane’s foul in the world cup, read about it here. Basically this one moment of stupidity cost France a chance to win the World Cup… the largest sporting event in the world. (4 times as big as the Super Bowl) So, with all that said… enjoy…

My friend Derek has posted a great wrap-up on the Turino Winter Olympics. As he points out, this was a tough games to get drawn into… but there were some great moments. There were heros and zeros. Athletes crash and fall. Some spectacularly, some on the verge of glory, some because of the elements. Like…

Tonight I will be going to the Pistons game with my buddy and fellow YMX staffer Todd. Should be a lot of fun. I don’t really like the Pistons, but I do like hanging out with friends and I like sports. A fun sidenote: A big part of the Piston’s experience is the PA announcer…
