The inequality between men and women isn’t new. The only difference now are social media platforms and the recent pushes for equality. It started long before the two weights in a locker room, it’s started with pioneers like Babe Didrikson Zaharis, Billie Jean King, Althea Gibson, Manon Rhéaume, Wilma Rudolph, Lindsay Vonn, and Danica Patrick.Continue reading “Inequality for Women isn’t New, the Timing Was Just Wrong”

374 Days
It has been 374 days since I attended a sporting event, actually 374 days since I attended any public event. 374 days, no matter how you break it down, whether you see it as 8,976 hours or 538,560 minutes or even 32,313,600 seconds, is a really long time. I look at my dog sleeping peacefullyContinue reading “374 Days”
Bonus Episode: March Madness 2021
It’s back. March Madness is back. After the pandemic got in the way last year to what I think would’ve been tournaments for the books (men and women), it’s back. Some usual suspects aren’t in the tournament this year but that doesn’t mean both tournaments are set to be classics! In this bonus episode, JennContinue reading “Bonus Episode: March Madness 2021”
March Madness is BACK!
It’s been 2 years since we’ve had the excitement of NCAA Basketball madness in March. Last year as the pandemic was starting and normalcy being tossed onto a highway and run over by cars, the tournament that unites the nation was canceled. It was the right call, we had this crazy virus with unknown infectionContinue reading “March Madness is BACK!”

The Most Beautiful Pitch
In my opinion, the knuckleball is the most beautiful pitch in baseball. Some may argue the fast ball or maybe a curve, but I would disagree. I love the way a good knuckleball pitch erratically flops and flies slowly over home plate. The woosh of a hitter desperately trying to hit a knuckleball is similarContinue reading “The Most Beautiful Pitch”
Keeper Declaration Day! The Best Day of the Year.
Today is the day, the day I have to declare my fantasy baseball league keepers for the 2021 season. I love fantasy sports, who wouldn’t want to be a team’s GM and build a team built of all-stars to get that prize! I’ve been an avid fantasy sports participant since 2002, just when online draftsContinue reading “Keeper Declaration Day! The Best Day of the Year.”
A Diva Was Almost Amongst Us
I’ll say this up front, I’m a Mets fan. True blue and orange Mets fan. But here’s my take on a player we almost signed. Trevor Bauer is a Grade A diva, not just an ordinary diva, but a Mariah Carey level diva. The kind of diva who throws a hissy fit if their pre-performanceContinue reading “A Diva Was Almost Amongst Us”
A Shining Light for a Struggling Devils Season: Pavel Zacha
The New Jersey Devils have struggled in this Covid season, well at least I’m calling this the Covid season. No fans at their games, no fans at all of the East games. Starting next week, New Jersey will allow 10% to attend games. What will the fans do? Will they be excited to see hockeyContinue reading “A Shining Light for a Struggling Devils Season: Pavel Zacha”
Why the Nets will win the title, one name: James Harden.
With the addition of James Harden to the Brooklyn Nets, they added a dimension to their team that I’m not sure the Nets have ever seen. James Harden is happy, Kyrie Irving is happy, Kevin Durant is happy…for now. If they can keep their playing and unselfish play rolling along, I’m not sure the NetsContinue reading “Why the Nets will win the title, one name: James Harden.”
