That’s how Michael Steele has described the Republican Party. I agree that muck is a great way to describe a medium comprised of the detritus of right wing preachers, radio hacks, and turdblossoms.  But it doesn’t seem wise for a party that is struggling mightily to find its identity, should choose as its cheerleader-in-chief, someone [...]

Pat Summitt’s Lady Vols gave her a solid, at-home victory over Georgia … and her 1000th win last night!  She wanted to hit the milestone at home on the court named after her — and she did — thanks to her “Baby Vols” — a team that includes 7 freshmen!
How does she do it?  Leadership [...]

Sounds ominous, I know … but I’m just talking about the beginning of the end of the month, here.  It’s been a frozen, snowy January – in fact I can’t remember the last time I saw bare ground here in NH.  Not that I’m complaining.  So long as it’s mostly snow (as opposed to ice) [...]

Yup, Auburn (“You can’t win if you can’t shoot“) lost to Georgia last night, leaving Andy Landers and Geno Auriemma both very happy.  Meanwhile, Angie Bjorklund and the Lady Vols gave Pat Summitt her 999th win …
I get so depressed looking at Andy Landers sometimes.  Just feels like I am being dragged (against my will, [...]

I can’t believe that I am doing this … but I feel moved to add the White House website to the links here in the JordanCornblog sidebar.  I feel moved to explore the site, read the blog, check it all out periodically.  What is happening?  As someone who grew up in the sixties and came [...]

The Lady Vols took it to Stanford and danced away with their second National Championship in as many years. Here’s to tough defense, great rebounding, and involving everyone in the offense! And here’s to Nicky Anosike … the player of the game. A very well-deserved accolade, that!  More in the morning … so stay tuned!

When I went to bed Notre Dame was ahead of Tennessee, and moving on to play for the Final Four was looking anything but inevitable for the Lady Vols.  Candace Parker’s 34 points, however, helped bring Tennessee back from a halftime deficit to a 74-64 win over the Irish.  (Did I already say Phew?)  With Rutgers, [...]

Okay everyone, get to bed EARLY tonight … because it all starts up again tomorrow!  West up … or maybe do a wittle weading about waccoons!
The women rounded out their Sweet Sixteen last night, and here’s how it stands.  All of the number 1 and number 2 seeds moved into the next round.  The number [...]

After you’ve been doing this blogging thing, it gets to be tough coming up with titles.  I bet someone (scratch that … LOTS OF PEOPLE) conducts workshops on that very topic in small, stale, Danish-and-coffee saturated conference rooms all around the country … or even more likely, in on line webinars!  Anyway – I haven’t been to [...]
