In case you didn’t hear, WRUW’s transmitter is down because the electricity to the building that gives home to our signal is without power. And if all you use is your radio to listen to the radio, how could you? You old fashioned stickler. With no electricity for said transmitter my 15,000 watt Monday morning [...]

If you haven’t caught on yet, I’m not a big preseason football guy. I love the NFL and enjoy its season more than any other sport’s regular season (due to its brevity and once a week nature mostly), I just can’t get real excited about practicing for it. I mean I watch D-league games of [...]

Well, are you ready for some football? We’re not quite yet to that point when this show will finally join all others “all ready in progress” in the parade of ad nauseam coverage for the NFL. But on a day when you were asked “where were you during earthquake?” and “did you feel it?” at [...]
“There’s a lot of people depending upon me to be awesome.” – Richard Patrick (of the band Filter) Last week here in his home town, Dick P. said that, with an all seriousness tone about it, then went out and played a show to a barren venue of only 100 people. Now you could see [...]

It’s both here and there tonight. With Detroit that is. On one hand it’s of something extremely relevant, and on the other, it’s only practice. What’s most silly about the relative irrelevant affair, is that even with exhibition as its qualifier it still comes with a jingle… So at least there’s that. Really though, about [...]

Ask, and ye shall receive. I read that somewhere before, and had I known that all I need do is ask that Fausto have the game of his year in facing the White Sox last night (from yesterday’s report)…well, let’s just say I couldn’t be happier that I did. An entire bullpen blown from a 14 [...]

Your boomsticks going off on a hair trigger missing the target to a tally of having struck out an almost incomprehensible 19 times. 2 argued to no avail blown calls gone against [...]

Castillo said, “this fight will be like two buffaloes colliding.” For ten brutal, exhilarating rounds, it was. They stood eye-to-eye in the center of the ring and moved only closer together, head bent aghast over the other’s shoulder. Castillo threw uppercuts and Corrales responded each time with a right hook and the sickening ratatat of low [...]
Today starts the hard push of 45 games in 44 days for the Tribe. hooray. Well, at least they start it while being the second youngest team in baseball (here’s to those young legs, arms and backs), and only 2 games out of 1st place in the Central. And big thanks (and congrats) to former [...]

Justin Verlander. So the guy is pretty good, huh? My neck hurts from turning empty handed on that fastball, my knees ache from bending out of the path of his curve to see it only then bend in for a strike, and my pride stings from charging in front of that “it’s not even fair” [...]
