Much like Christmas on December 25th, Thanksgiving on the last Thu in November, and brilliant poetry from Bradford Kron on the BSR, it wouldn’t be a normal year without a Pittsburgh Steeler doing something stupid that shames their franchise.

Skybet PDC World Matchplay Darts Day 1 Predictions and bets
Ladies and gentleman, welcome back the goose. What goose? That goose that lay them golden eggs. That would be me, K.M. Venne, back to give you more FREE MONEY. I won 3.33 units on the UK Open, a tournament that saw 9 of the 10 best players in the world lose before the final 8. [...]
Inside the NBA + Shaq = Mistake

Fantasy Baseball: First Half Roundup, Mailbag
Binyamin Zomberg Another year, another All-Star Break underway. I assume I’m not the only one who checked for stats Tuesday morning, hoping against hope that the nightmare known as the HR Derby had changed back into good old baseball. At least they played one game of baseball during the lull… In honor of the five [...]
USA vs. Brazil Women’s Soccer Thriller
Monday Morning Midfielder The Girls from Brazil This is the first (and probably last) time that girls’ soccer will feature on this blog, but anyone who saw the USA women take on Brazil Sunday morning enjoyed one of the all-time American soccer classics. The nation witnessed the men’s team win a last minute thriller against [...]
MLB Midseason Recap Spectacular
The All Star Break is more than a time for players to rest up and get ready for the grueling stretch which is the second half. It is also a time for us analysts to look back at our pre-season predictions in order to justify why we were horribly wrong about certain things while covering [...]
