Sup bros? So I was just lounging in my flat stringing up the new acoustic when I got a righteous phone call from one Barry Zito. He was coming over…with my bag of Afghan Trainwreck and some really special news. Brahs, lemme tell you, I could NOT wait to hear what BZ had to tell me. ...

It was ‘the game of the year’ according to ESPN. The rivalry of the decade. The matchup that always promised greatness. For as much as I loath ESPN being right on all of those accounts, last night’s Pats Colts game was just another chapter in the epic story of the two ...

Another week, another near .500 record. And because I missed out on the Bears +3.5 (a pick I made on Twitter ), I’m already in a hole this week. By taking a look at the lines, I envision this weekend being a dominant one for the books. So many fishy lines, and so many sucker bets ...

Man oh man, it’s been a LONG week of preparation for this Sunday’s slate of games. I tell ya somethin’, there are a handful of great match-ups this week in the NFL. The monday-nighter will be a doozy with Denver looking to keep up their SMASHMOUTH style against a Pittsburgh team that, you ...
