As the rain pelts and the wind howls outside, I’m on my second cup of coffee, contemplating a blank screen and toying with the idea of writing something really silly.
JordanCornblog has been feeling rather rudderless of late. (Talking about the blog here, not the actual person.) Being “ruddered” was never what I’d call a strong [...]
Phillies won, Red Sox won .. and I’ve got the Slingcatcher hooked up and working in Dewd’s room!
Meanwhile, the Breakers will be honoring soccer great Maren Meinert at the game with the Freedom on May 17th at Harvard Stadium. WUSA fans remember her fondly as a key ingredient in the Breakers’ success – most especially [...]
If you’ve been paying any attention to JordanCornblog’s track record on sports predictions, you’ll know that it’s pretty much best to ignore anything that I say. (This is, by the way, very freeing in some ways.)
So here are my week 6 WPS predictions … and for more informed previews, check out Christa Mann’s Week 6 [...]
… but that didn’t dampen the spirits of the nearly 5,000 Breakers fans who trooped to Cambridge to see their Boston Blues defeat the St. Louis Athletica 2-0 in their home opener at Harvard Stadium. Here are the Week 3 WPS Power Rankings by Jo-Ryan Salazar. (I’ll track these through the season on my WPS [...]
Man oh man oh man — here’s Glenn Beck making fun of Obama’s Aunt — and a bunch of other people, too. This is why I’ve been staying away from the news in favor of b-ball and soccer. What a hateful, useless tool!
Isn’t this the dude who was recently weeping about how much he loves [...]
Happy Saturday everyone! Looks like it’s going to be one beauty of a day. HollyCornblog and CharlieHopbrew should be on their way in another couple of hours and if I disappear for a while after they arrive, well, you’ll know what I’m up to!
Let’s see what’s happening in the world of soccer, first. I see [...]
Spoken like a true Phillies phan, I know.
There’s lots of news this morning on the Boston Breakers front, starting with the fact that an agreement has been reached between the Boston Aztecs and the Boston Breakers. Under the agreement the Aztecs will become the reserve team of the Breakers. Seems like a positive [...]
The USWNT plays China in snowy Detroit today (while the UAW and the rest of us wait for news of the auto industry bailout … and snow falls in Michigan, and here in NH .. and presumably pretty much everywhere in between)! After what Pia did with this team in the Olympics … Obama might [...]
No baseball to report on. No debate. I am forced to move to Plan B. (Don’t try this at home.)
What brought me to this? It began with my morning visit to Woot — a site that HollyCornblog turned me onto some years ago. I check it first thing and sometimes find really good deals. (Plus, [...]
In the final hours before the Pennsylvania vote, the Clinton and Obama campaigns are scrambling through Pennsylvania, continuing to fling accusations and mud. I am interested, this morning, to read Theda Skocpol’s report (in the Huffington Post) which takes some of the sting out of the “elitism” arrows that Hillary’s been shooting at Obama. Harvard’s [...]
