Yep. Let’s do this. I’ll open the conversating sometime before the start of the festivities at 7:30, technology willing. Hey, what were you going to do tonight anyway?

While the Warriors were getting their first win of the season, I was cruising at 31,000 feet getting my Sudoko on in the back of Spirit , Southwest’s in-flight Magazine. When I got off the plane I checked the score and saw that not only did we get the W, but four Warriors had 20 plus ...

A couple of months ago, we helped spread the word about Rafael’s thorough accounting of Bay slang, “The Grinch Song.” Folks lost they minds off that one and our mole in the PDX went on a major Rafael Casal bender as a consequence. Now he’s got an album. And ...

This suit alone is reason enough to hate the man, but well-known author, Bill Simmons, aka “The Sports Guy” has really taken his hatred of Mike Dunleavy, Sr. to new levels lately. Maybe the man we like to call The Cryptkeeper is hearing the messages. Remarkably, Dunleavy ...

As I write, it’s the end of the third quarter in the Lakers/Clippers game, with the Clips down one. Portland had an uneven game up north against Houston, but pulled out the win. Did I mention that NBA League Pass is free this week? Hallelujah. It’s on.

Ah, the start of the season is upon us. And we’re making sure to hedge our bets here at FTB. So comes this, from The City That Works, Portland, Oregon, via our friend and sideline mole, one Mr. Clement Uduk. Dude watches every game from like 15 feet behind the visitor’s bench. ...

As if it wasn’t enough for Lebron James to have one biblical attribution, now Dave Zirin has him getting all Old Testament on fools, doling out smiteful dunks on the false idols of sports and politics. If you’re not up on Dave Zirin’s blog, The Edge of Sports , I highly ...

Business took me down to the “City of Angles” this weekend; UFC 104, to be precise. And, while the House of Staples played host to the big match between Lyoto “The Dragon” Machita and Mauricio “Shogun” Rua on Saturday night, the event there on Friday evening was ...

If you live in the Bay Area, maybe it wasn’t really much fun trying to root for a California presence in the World Series. The awkward embrace of our division rivals to the south just wasn’t cutting it for me anyway. But just in case you’re bummed that the World Series is ...

Yes, it is more than a game over there in New Jersey. I came across this article in the NY Observer . The Nets owner, Bruce Rattner, is now “renting” out his players off the court. According to the article, “For $25,000 you can get courtside tickets to 10 games and, for ...

This dunk is a couple of days old now, but it’s been gnawing at my soul. This is what it looks like when two large men meet at the top and one gets seriously smashed on. And seriously, everyone in LA who’s not Super Glued to Kobe’s scrotum might want to start taking note ...
