Say hello to the next great Winter Olympic sport: Train Sledding

Monday, December 6, 2010

Kind of combines the anticipation of waiting for a (injury-free) bobsled crash with the WTF audacity of figure skating attire, doesn’t it? And, as far as the relative appeal of the Winter Olympics goes, that can’t be a bad thing. You know, they’re considering adding events to the 2014 games, and — while it may [...]

Spencer Pratt Bobblehead Night for Hurricanes

Thursday, March 4, 2010

Actually…it’s Eric Staal bobblehead night at the RBC Center in Raleigh, NC tonight as the Carolina Hurricanes take on the Ottawa Senators. To me however, this looks a bit more like Spencer “King of all things Douche” Pratt(although I’m told looks more like Staal in person). Staal is of course deserving of a bobblehead in [...]

The 2010 Winter Olympics may finally be over, but confusion remains rampant. Well, I’m still a bit confused, at least, but then I’ve never paid as close attention to the Winter Games as I did this year.

One of the great debates now in hockey circles is, “who would you rather have?” Sid the Kid or Ovie? While their offensive skills are pretty much dead even, Ovechkin brings a physical game to the table…which can completely shift the momentum of game in a way that finesse cannot. Observe the Zapruder-like video below [...]

Danish Curlers complain that crowd noise is “unfair”

Its no wonder their country is named after the doughnut’s inferior breakfast cousin. What a bunch of panty-wastes… I am pretty sure you should be automatically dismissed from the Olympics if you complain about crowd noise as the determining factor in your failure. Lame sauce. Sack up. Denmark’s Madeleine Dupont said she was unable to [...]

Can’t you tell? Seriously, though. After all the crazy ass shit that allegedly went on according to Boys Will Be Boys, the Super Bowls and, of course, the new stadium and jumbotron worth more than the GDP of several 3rd World countries, who’d of thunk Jerry Jones would be this enthralled by something as emasculating [...]

5 Reasons You Should be Watching the Winter Olympics

I’ve heard a lot of talk and I’ve seen a lot of chatter(ahem, twitter) about the winter Olympics being too boring. I’ve heard they’re not as fun as the summer, so therefore not worthy of being watched. I have actually found the opposite to be true. I’ve found myself watching these winter Olympics just as [...]

Curling rocks my face and is easily the best Winter Olympic event

FACT. Any Olympic sport that you can do in a bar or on a cruise ship (in miniature and altered versions), while heavily intoxicated, trumps all others. It speaks to the common man, the tailgater. Curling is like the cornhole of the Olympics. (OMG can you imagine cornhole in the Summer Olympics!! GIGGITY!!!) I am [...]
