Obliged to the Obligation

No Comments on Obliged to the Obligation

“And for that I found myself in a stupor of wonderment as I pondered the situation of the family tradition gone terribly wrong.”

Let’s face it. Being a fan in New England for the past six or seven years hasn’t really brought on feelings of bereavement. Around these parts, the chatter among us usually consists of where we are watching the big game and what time everyone is going to the parade in Boston after another championship is clinched by the illustrious sports town.
Now, hold on a second. Let me get back to where the “where we are watching the game” part. To some, the big game is code-word for bars; at least the people I know. It doesn’t matter that the experience of another New England victory (besides Super Bowl XLII…still can not rid the vomit taste from my mouth) will more than likely end up in severe loss of funds due to dollar drafts which always grow into rounds of expensive drinks; bruised and/or broken extremities; and the possibly of some dramatic type of run-in with the law enforcement. To summarize: they never get to see the actual game and miss out on history.

Cleveland’s Got Nothin’ On Me

No Comments on Cleveland’s Got Nothin’ On Me

Hi, my name is JDWC and I’m addicted to sports. I was hooked from birth, because my father is an addict too. Like him, my drugs of choice are the Dodgers, the 49ers and the Oakland A’s. But, like most addicts and sons, I pledged to be better, to be more. So I surpassed my father…I became a basketball fan and chose the most depressing depressant known to man: the Golden State Warriors. The high school years were a brief, four-step recovery program. I graduated from the program in 2007, proclaimed clean and cured!

Alas, tragedy struck again. I was thrust into the real world and sent up to Pullman, WA to educate myself in the arts of Journalism and Creative Writing. From the first time I tasted Washington State University football, I was hooked again. Years passed and I drifted back into my addictive haze. Over the last week, I have hit rock bottom. If only I had chosen St. Louis. New York. Boston. Even Seattle. Instead, I got what I deserved. My teams have taken years from my life I will never get back. This is the uncut, untold story of my struggles:

After Week 2: What We Know and What We Think We Know

No Comments on After Week 2: What We Know and What We Think We Know

Ahhhhhhhhhhh. We can finally relax knowing the calming feeling of our College Football season is with us. It’s like our pillow, very comforting, even more so if you reside in or around the Tuscaloosa or Columbus area and very UN-comforting if you’re in the booming Metropolis of Boise (we’ll get to that later.) These past two weeks have literally taught us nothing and at the same time taught us nothing; wait. Didn’t I already say that? It sounds funny but we have honestly learned nothing while getting Xed and Oed at the same time like we’re on Rex Ryan’s JV squad from Hard Knocks. I feel like I should be ranting a testimonial into the camera (looking left and right……DAMN! No camera.) Oh well. We’ll talk NFL in another column, right now we’re talking about CFB…..I mean Hell, I’m 40! I’m a MAN! Let’s get to it.

U.S. Ban on Online Gambling On the Way Out?

1 Comment on U.S. Ban on Online Gambling On the Way Out?

By Diane M. Grassi

When it comes to gambling, there has never been a shortage of opinion amongst the masses. Either people favor it or they feel strongly that it accompanies some of society’s more depraved behaviors, along with attracting crime, and is a negative temptation for our youth.
