  • The gate is narrow

    The gate is narrow

    I have been a fan (or “liker” according to Facebook…whatev) of the E*Trade Baby for quite some time but this commercial makes me laugh every dang time I see it. Especially when he shows us his shocked face. https://youtube.com/watch?v=HqVBKO_QM3o I also have an appreciation for this, which was circulating around my NOLA channels during Lombardi…Keep…

    You wonder why I ♥ David Wright? Here’s why. The following was taken from this Brooklyn Cyclones blog post: “…David Wright took batting practice with the Cyclones again today, and we opened the gates early so fans could watch the Mets’ star take some hacks. He once again peppered the scoreboard with some long home…Keep…

  • Finally finished it!

    Finally finished it!

    When my brother Joe graduated high school in 2003, my graduation present to him was a ginormous scrapbook of all his sports accomplishments in high school. In truth, I had actually given him the first chunk of the album for Christmas in 2001, because there was enough material, and gave him the balance at graduation.…Keep…
