What a disgusting team the Tennessee Titans have become. Many already call their Defense the dirtiest in football with 10 personal fouls to date, including late hits on the quarterbacks. Perhaps the NFL should look into sanctions against this out of control team, starting with Defensive Coordinator Chuck Cecil. If this keeps up, NFL games [...]

This video shows the inaugural curling event for the Charlotte Centre Curling Club in North Carolina. (Courtesy CN2 of Charlotte) There were 24 curlers on real ice! But the video advises us it took four years of hard work to bring it about. However curling in sweeping the South! Yes, curling, that sport with rocks [...]

As sports fans across America watch the NCAA Basketball Tournament games in well lit arenas and on televisions powered by electricity, some people have the “best seats in the house” because they have more affordable electricity rates.
These are the American Energy Freedom Center “Sweet 16″ NCAA basketball tournament teams, rated by which colleges have the best electricity prices in their States. If the NCAA Men’s Basketball teams were rated by the best electricity prices in their states, the top teams would be:

Curling is that great sport with rocks and brooms. It’s “sweeping” (pun intended) across the nation. The South is the most significant part of the nation not in a curling region. There is no curling club in all of the Commonwealth of Virginia. Several persons (including your blogger) are looking into starting one here in [...]

Tom warned you I might write about sports. I try not to present sports as news (who beat whom – unless its that SAINTS beat COLTS thing or something like that ) but rather the policy and decision-making behind sports. Several writers have discussed the proposed expansion of the NCAA tourney to 96 teams. Syracuse’s [...]

By Elwood “Sandy” Sanders
The best part of any Olympics (I wait for it every Olympics!) is the opening ceremonies. Each nation comes into the stadium with their athletes, one (sometimes the only one) carrying the flag of their nation, except for Taiwan, the Republic of China, our old ally in WWII until President Nixon sold them out to Red China. Taiwan cannot now carry its flag in (This was not always true: There is a scene in the 1924 Olympic movie Chariots of Fire where there is an unusual five striped flag and that was the old flag of the Republic of China) and goes by Chinese Taipei. This is shameful and we ought to protest but Red China might sell some of its Treasury bonds in response! No one has won; no one has lost yet and all nations and athletes (except Taiwan, see above) are equal in dignity.

Vote for Martha Coakley in Massachusetts today and the Coakley “Curse of the Obama” will make the Curse of the Bambino look like a minor slump.
Just look at the similarities. Obama and Bambino. Practically an anagram.

Ok. Not political, but for this long time Colt’s fan, clinching their Division in November is not something I can remain quiet about. I became a Colt’s fan in the days when their last franchise Quarterback was in his prime.
