Note to Potential Buyers…
Our house is on the market and we keep getting feedback from people who look at our house. I have some notes for anyone looking at my house. This is one of them.
I don’t know what you were expecting when you read that our basement is “finished.” I have to say that while it may not be up to your standards, we have walls, and lights everywhere. There is one big room with carpet, a bar and a fireplace. That room covers about 1/3 of the basement. If that isn’t considered “finished” then keep looking.
I am pretty realistic about the positives and negatives of my home, but don’t be a jerk. The basement is finished. Bottom line.
Seattle Sonics Trial About to Begin
I have pledged my support for the city of Seattle to keep their basketball team. Now, as the trial date looms, I read that Seattle plans to use many of the same arguments that were used in Cleveland to keep the team name, colors, and to ultimately secure an expansion team. This isn’t a typical tenant-landlord case. I hope Seattle gets to at least keep their name and history, if nothing else.
Metallica Hates Bloggers
Metallica was against Napster back in the 90’s and today, they appear to be against bloggers.
Wha wha what?
What, exactly, did Metallica think a bunch of music bloggers were going to do with their newfound ear candy?
Pat Forde is a Hack Volume II
I don’t know how many volumes we will have to run out here before someone gets their head out of their turd-cutter and cuts this turd from the roster of writers at ESPN. Forde lambasted Ohio State after losing their second straight National Championship game in a ridiculous, taunting manner. I couldn’t figure out why the acidity was so necessary then. And now, I can’t figure out why he needs to be so nasty about Big Brown and his owner.
I would get it if he was a contributor for Deadspin. I don’t think that we need to have the conversation reduced to attacks on the more well-established media websites like ESPN. After the Ohio State article, I emailed the ESPN ombudsman, Le Anne Schreiber, but she didn’t get enough response to make it a priority.
I assume Forde will eventually piss off a critical mass of people. I can’t wait.
UroClub, Just in Time for Father’s Day
If you don’t know what to get your golfing father for father’s day, this might be it.
Greg Cote is a Boob
This might be one of the dumbest op-eds I have ever read. First of all MMA is a great sport. MMA is not the name of a league in competition with UFC.
Mean or Funny?
I say both. Ladies and Gentlemen, I give you, Sarah Jessica Parker Looks Like a Horse.com
Ferris Bueller is going to be pissed.
Browns Fans Hate Beat Writer
I just read an off-season article by Cleveland Plain Dealer Browns beat reporter Tony Grossi. I don’t know if I agree with him, but the commenters on there KNOW how they feel. Oof. What a tongue lashing Tony receives on this post.
I wonder how a guy who writes about the most popular team in town can keep his job when so many of the fans seem to hate his guts (and his reporting?)
Value Proposition
Would you pay $100,000 for a Mercedes with 80,000 miles on it? The Seattle Seahawks sure wish they hadn’t.
Mortgage Mess Explained Simply
I ripped this off directly from MisterCrunchy, but it is so effing brilliant that it must be linked and looked at by everyone.
