If there is one story in sports that I’m sick of right now, it’s not Lance Armstrong or Manti Te’o (well kinda for both of them, but still plan to blog my thoughts), it’s athletes getting charged with DWIs. I apologize in advance that this post will have a soapbox feel to it, but it’s…
NFL Championship Weekend is finally upon us – or as Teddy Bruschi calls it: free hat and t-shirt weekend. The games today are the final stop on the road to NOLA. Both offer intriguing matchups and make for a Sunday Funday. 49ers at Falcons The NFC is a chalk matchup where the top 2 seeds…
In a crazy sports week, there’s been so much to talk about! I wanted to take a minute to get on my soapbox about the way we look at athletes. Growing up, my husband (and many other people) wanted to ‘Be Like Mike.’ Personally, I’m glad he’s not a womanizer with a gambling problem. That’s…

I grew up in a state where people paid attention to hockey. I learned to skate once I could walk, my family had season college hockey tickets, and we frequently went to professional games. Between college and professional only, I’ve attended hundreds of hockey games – let alone the thousands more I’ve watched on TV…
The NFL will take center stage this weekend as the playoffs begin. Never growing up a big NFL fan, the sports purest in me loves this time of year. I don’t have a team I’m aligned to, so I really only pay attention to the 18 week schedule for my fantasy teams. Now, it’s time…
