Jets Fans Predictably Rational and Subdued After Brutal Jags Loss (hint: sarcasm)
legendofcecilioguante.com — Don't get me wrong, I'm a big fan of the Jets. I bitch and moan and lament the sorry hand I've been dealt.

Bloggin' on Empty...Sports Stuff from the Weekend
legendofcecilioguante.com — My tank runneth empty...or something. Way back in the '07, this sports blogging thing was a whole lot easier. Now, I've got one of those wife things, an apartment, buddies having kids, mortgage, and, like, uhhh, responsibilities, or, something. Point being, my brain seems to have been zapped ...

Tyson Knocks Out Paparrazzi, Transports Me Back to the McNeeley Death Stare
legendofcecilioguante.com — So, Mike Tyson apparently knocked down (or out) a paparazzi at LAX earlier this evening . My only thought. Of all the people to f with in the entire celebrity world, there might be no human being I'd be more frightened about provoking than Mike Tyson. As a child of the 80s, Iron Mike was ...

WTF Did the Knicks Do with Eddy Curry?
legendofcecilioguante.com — Can someone tell me where the Knicks are hiding Eddy Curry? Seriously, what have they done with our lovable round mound of non-rebound? I'll share the video after the jump. But if you check out the screen grab to the left, it may start to give you a hint as to what I'm talking about. The man ...

Reckless Rambling on L.J., Spurrier, Yanks, Etc.
legendofcecilioguante.com — So, I've been busy at work lately. Hence, no long, thoughtful reflective posts about clever little sports commonalities from the late 80s we can all share and collectively giggle about. I ain't got the time or the energy. Home ownership. Job. Life. All getting in the way of blogging. Friggin' ... (more) Reckless Rambling on L.J., Spurrier, Yanks, Etc.
I Continue to Like Mike Smith, Moreso Now...
legendofcecilioguante.com — Just for the record, I see nothing very much wrong with this reaction from Mike Smith. If he threw a punch, I'll retract and say he crossed the line. Otherwise, I not only accept his behavior, I strongly support it. Hell, I'll bet most fans wish their coaches would show that kind of venom in ... (more) I Continue to Like Mike Smith, Moreso Now...

Cause This is Spilll-er, C.J. Spiller's Night!
legendofcecilioguante.com — No Number of 'Noles Stopping Spiller (AP Photo, Shiro) I find it hard to believe many people can come near to doing what Clemson's C.J. Spiller does with his two legs. Turns out, he can put most to shame on only one good wheel. Just ask Florida St. The move has kept me from a solid Saturday ... (more) Cause This is Spilll-er, C.J. Spiller's Night!

Chris Cooley's Fine-Tuning His Pottery Skills
legendofcecilioguante.com — I've always been a Chris Cooley fan. It's kinda hard not to be, particularly following the hot pants, hot wife and all-around alpha maleness and blogging madness. That's why it was particularly disheartening to hear about Cooley going down for the year with a knee injury. So, what's keeping the ... (more) Chris Cooley's Fine-Tuning His Pottery Skills

Over-Under on Lincecum 2K9 Commercial Remix?
legendofcecilioguante.com — Most have probably already heard the somehow not-at-all-surprising news of Cy Young award winner Tim Lincecum getting pulled over and then "busted" with a bit of weed . Let's just say I don't disagree with most of the commenters on said article. But I'm not here to debate that stuff. What I'm ... (more) Over-Under on Lincecum 2K9 Commercial Remix?

Teddy KGB as Kenny Rogers...Or Something
legendofcecilioguante.com — I know in the classical sense of film and cinematography it's no epic movie. I don't care. Rounders is easily in my top 10. Just how high, I'd need some more time to determine. Teddy KGB is one of the huge reasons why. I am lucky enough to work with a team in the office that not only quotes the ...

The Axis of Evil Has Re-Aligned to its Familiar Position
legendofcecilioguante.com — All is right, and by that I mean horribly wrong, in the world again. The Evil Empire has re-claimed its spot atop the baseball universe, casting its belittling eye upon the downtrodden MLB masses.

After Without Bias...
legendofcecilioguante.com — This is the picture that is etched in my memory. There's something about the look. There's something bigger in that smile. It seems to say so many things - to speak such volumes about Len Bias. It has a little of his swagger. It has a little of his appreciation. It hints at the promise. It ...

Thoughts on the Vicious Eye Gouger! (inject mild sarcasm here)
legendofcecilioguante.com — This is Brandon Spikes. Doer of evil. Blight on all of collegiate football. Gouger of eyes. Sinner of sinners. At least that's what much of America would like you to believe. Spikes is an unconscionable thug, a "criminal" and deserving of "jail time" for trying to "blind a man." These are ...
