UPDATE: This post was finalized on Friday but I never posted it. Instead I had to practice for this – another lip sync victory this time in the 24th Annual Sultan Lip Sync. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6IKJzOvATXQ I know, I know. I’m a bit behind but if you read my prior entry you know why I’m a little [...]

Baseball Predictions 2011
Posted in Baseball on April 9, 2011 | 2 Comments »
Every year I sit down before the baseball season begins and write out my predictions. Unfortunately I’m a little late this season. I’ve actually started this entry three times but have never gotten around to finishing it, but since I’ve just updated my fantasy baseball rosters and thus put myself back in the baseball mood [...]
My Career Highlight – April 27, 2009
Posted in Basketball, Sports on April 27, 2009 | Leave a Comment »
I’m a little sore but it was well worth it. Four games in five hours. That’s the grueling schedule that was put upon us in our men’s basketball league Sunday afternoon. We started at 2pm. If we won we’d play at 3pm. If we won that game we’d play at 5pm. If we [...]
Super Bowl and Bachelorhood – February 5, 2009
Posted in Football, Sports on February 5, 2009 | Leave a Comment »
Super Bowl XLIII (43) is two days gone and like last year’s Super Bowl (XLII) people are already dubbing it the best Super Bowl ever. I was one of those people that proclaimed last year’s Super Bowl in which the New York Giants upset the previously undefeated New England Patriots, as the greatest Super Bowl [...]
Two Goals and a Whole Lotta Pictures – October 6, 2008

I finally got over that cold I was complaining about. And just in time for me to enjoy the final two days of my brother and my uncle’s visit. When I last left you I was fighting a cold and wondering if I’d have to postpone my birthday. Well, things didn’t get better on my [...]
Blogging from the Sox Game – August 21, 2008

One of my favorite things to do for the Herald is to cover an Everett AquaSox game. The AquaSox are the Single-A affiliate of the Seattle Mariners. I’m the second string reporter for the Sox. Since our usual Sox reporter is unavailable (covering the Everett Silvertips, our Western Hockey League team that has turnedEverett into [...]
Super Bowl Hangover – February 5, 2008
Posted in Football, Sports on February 5, 2008 | 2 Comments »
The talk has already begun about whether or not Sunday’s Super Bowl XLII was the greatest Super Bowl of all-time. In my opinion, it’s well deserving of that recognition. I can’t remember a Super Bowl that the minute the game ended I wanted to go back and watch it again, or at least the fourth [...]
Are You Ready for Some Football?!? – September 4, 2007
Posted in Football, Nonsense on September 5, 2007 | 1 Comment »
The pre-funk to the fantasy football season is finally over. And boy did I get down! Never have I studied so much for an upcoming football season, and never have I been so lucky to get the draft picks I got this season. I’m feeling extremely confident in my teams, partly because of the luck [...]
Horse Races, the Fair and Lukas – August 30, 2007
Posted in Football, Lukas, Nonsense on August 31, 2007 | 1 Comment »
Went to the horse races this past weekend. Had a fun time, though I lost $10 of my dollars and $12 of my Grandpa’s. Sorry Gramps! It was still fun trying to pick the horses, using different types of strategies such as: the jockey’s name is Kevin, my favorite number is three, my favorite color [...]
‘Tis the Season for Fantasy Football – August 26, 2007
Posted in Football on August 26, 2007 | Leave a Comment »
It’s nearing midnight and I’ve finally finished working. I’ve been typing and analyzing for the past three hours. Lis has fallen asleep on the couch, the Tivo’d Mariners game is playing in the background and I’ve finally finished charting what I needed to chart. Okay, so it wasn’t “real” work and I didn’t get paid [...]
