His Royal Highness, Lebron James

So I was planning on using this image in a post about Lebron and the Heat whether they won or lost. If they had won, I would have named the post “Why Lebron Winning is the Worst Thing to Ever Happen to the NBA.” Thankfully, I didn’t have to write that post. Instead, I think…

What Is the Mendoza Line?

On Thursday, Jorge Posada of the New York Yankees went 2-4. It was said he had finally pushed his batting average over the “Mendoza Line.” That’s a term I’ve heard many times watching baseball over the last 20 years or so, but it occurred to me that some of you newer or younger fans might…

10 Things That Should Happen at Macho Man’s Funeral

I know this is supposed to be a blog strictly about sports, but professional wrestlers are athletes, professional wrestling is known as sports entertainment, and you gotta love Randy “Macho Man” Savage. I was legitimately saddened by the passing of “The Madness” today. Apparently, the 58 year old former WWF (yes, WWF) and WCW superstar…

The Royals: Total Dicks

If I had to write a caption for the above picture, without knowing anything about the game situation during which it was taken, I’d probably still go with… “Uhh… You guys are dicks.” That confused young man in the photo is Kansas City Royals relief pitcher, and New Jersey native, Vin Mazzaro. Vinny from Jersey…
