  • “Soy un sobreviviente” – What I’ve Been Doing 27 Aug 2012 [FB/IB/F/BT/GO]

    Busy week of prepping to move and moving, but that didn’t stop me from getting some media in… Movies Juan de los muertos – It’s not the greatest movie in the world, but it’s pretty damn awesome. I don’t get to see a lot of movies about Cuba or set in Cuba and this was […]

  • I’m Just Albert [Embedded Reporter]

    One of the latest in the long line of pretty funny Sportscenter commercials.

  • Super Ichiban Travel Blog Part XIX: Epilogue [II]

    No Game Overview today, we’re gonna finish this up since I didn’t get to it today (World Series business) And so it came to pass that I went to Japan, saw some baseball, and came back home with a greater appreciation and understanding of Japan. If you remember the first entry in this series, I […]

  • About 40 Left. Hurry Up Fish! [Wednesday Morning Quarterback]

    It’s time for Wednesday Morning Quarterback, your weekly sports round-up. Baseball, sad as I am to say it, is nearing the end of its season. As pre-season stories begin to flood my RSS reader I can only lament the loss of the pure baseball period. That time of the year where the only professional sport […]

  • June Results [Wednesday Morning Quarterback]

    It’s time for Wednesday Morning Quarterback, your weekly sports round-up. Another month of baseball has passed and it’s a testament to the sport that things have gotten a bit crazy. As I write this on Tuesday, the standings look a little something like this: AL East Yankees Red Sox Blue Jays Rays Orioles AL Central […]

  • 6 April Web Gems and SportsCenter! [WMQ]

    Sadly no mention of the Marlins’ amazing inside the park homer nor the grand slam. On the other hand, who doesn’t love great defensive plays instead of homers? SportsCenter got it a little better with not one, but two Marlins plays in there, both by Bonifacio. Good stuff all around though.

  • SC Top 10 [WMQ]

    I’ve discovered that these top plays seem to only stay active for a few days, at the most. I guess I don’t blame ESPN, their bandwidth requirements would be ridiculous. I’m gonna have to think about whether or not I continue this based on the fact that before the week is up I’ve already got […]

  • SportsCenter 03 April 2009 [WMQ]

    Put me down as someone who hates Basketball highlights. Really, what’s all that interesting about a dunk? Sometimes they get the highlights right and have spectacular shots or blocks, but dunks in general aren’t all that interesting. That being said, the two-balls-at-once dunk in today’s top 10 was pretty cool. For my money, though, the […]

  • Not Much [WMQ]

    Not much interesting to say about today. We’ve got a few things and we’ll combine in some highlights. Gary Sheffield was released from the Tigers. Not altogether a bizarre move, but definitely unexpected. Unimpressive hitting last season and this spring combined to motivate the Tigers to instead field more defensively able players on their field. […]

  • SC Top Plays 31 March 2009 [WMQ]

    No Web Gems today, so we’ll just do the SportsCenter Top 10
