Various and Sundry

--One bad thing about Wordpress is that it is overly spam-friendly. I have a good filter but occasionally a few get through onto my comments. And sometimes legitimate comments get hung up for moderation or swooped up in the spam filter. I don't moderate comments with the ...

Odds and Ends

Thursday, January 4th, 2007

My blogging schedule will return to normal on Tuesday when I return to the office full-time. I'm on vacation this week and I am trying to use as much of that time as possible planning sermon and class schedules for the summer and the fall. It's not going as well ...

Court Bloggers

Sunday, October 29th, 2006

Since I am getting my hat handed to me weekly in my blog fantasy football league, I thought I would expand the beat-down to fantasy basketball. I haven't played in years because it's too labor-intensive to set your line-up every day. That is why this will be a head-to-head league. ...

Blogger Bowl Draft

Tuesday, August 29th, 2006

A great night of witty banter and trash talk made for a memorable inaugural Blogger Bowl Draft.  I'm still a little cheesed that the husband-wife team scored the first two slots and I was jammed all the way back at #8. I'm not very pleased with the overall tone of my ...

Around the Headlines

Wednesday, May 24th, 2006

So, Jeb is asked about running the NFL. While he is at it maybe he could tear a page from his brother's book and force regime change in Detroit. I'm not a huge Lions fan, but Millen must be stopped. Rather than investing needed time and money into producing ...

10 Things I Would Change About ESPN

Tuesday, March 14th, 2006

Note: I'm taking a break this week from some of my usual heavy fare. (Well, probably not all week but at least today). In the meantime, check out a great entry from my twin brother Jason. I love ESPN. It is, after all, the world wide leader in Sports. You have ...

It’s Been Too Long

Monday, March 13th, 2006

My Hogs are back in the Big Dance after a 5 year absence. After being one of the most dominant b-ball teams of the '90s, we fell off the map for the first half of this decade. But, we are back. Hopefully, this is a further sign of us heading ...
