It’s an age-old question: what came first the chicken or the egg? That timeless question got me thinking about how many fines are now coming down from Goodell’s fortress for anything and everything, and wondering if it’s just a reflection on the current exposition of media immediacy, be it Sportscenter, the internet, social media, or […]

Last Second Decisions: Week 12
November 26, 2011 | 2011 Fantasy Football, Fantasy Football Daily Notes | 41 Commentsby: JB Gilpin
Hyperbole. It’s what makes sports single-handedly the most important aspect of life for all time, ever. But seriously, we sometimes get our sports overly laden with hyperbole to the point where you just shake you head and say, “Come on.” Unfortunately though, I feel it’s staring to pop up across other segments of news with […]

Life works as a series of memories; those that are accessed with greater ease and more difficulty that all define who we are. What’s great about fantasy sports (and sports in general) is that they work the same exact way. Now maybe I’m just way too into fantasy and maybe I have an overactive memory, […]

So in this glorious world we live in, almost everyone has bosses. And unlike the disappearance of America’s middle-class, there are few bosses always hated (Horrible Bosses neurotic and harassment style) and even fewer always liked; almost everybody that is in a job they at least somewhat enjoy has a boss in the middle ground. […]

Listen, I know everyone wants the ball. Even down to a pick-up game or intramural flag football, everyone’s looking to make the catches. But when I saw what Roy Williams said about having more chemistry with Jay Cutler to try and convince the Bears’ coaching staff to feed him the ball (that motive is my […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?I’ve been in mourning since the end of the NLCS and my Brewers got knocked out, but things are even worse with the Cardinals winning the Series in game 7. Seeing Tony La Russa scowl his way to a championship is about as bad as seeing Belichick do it. La Russa screams on the bullpen […]

It’s pretty well documented that I can’t stand TV commercials. The way they distort reality and smother you in fake attitudes makes me loathe the gaps in between shows or games, making the mute button or channel return my best friend. But even I, the commercial hater, sometimes succumb to complacency and actually semi-digest whatever […]

I always think of myself as a pretty avid reader. But things recently went into a complete standstill once I got about 2/3 of the way through Ayn Rand’s Atlas Shrugged. If you’ve read the book, you’ll know what I’m talking about, the part when they get to Colorado and there’s this (spoiler alert) magic […]

So I just picked up Fifa 12 the other day, you know, for the other football, and I’m getting really into the online “Head-to-Head Seasons” (hit me up on twitter if you have Fifa and wanna play some time @jbgilpin) where you are matched up against a comparable team and a comparable opponent. I don’t […]

I hate shopping. Obviously not all the time, but more often than not, I can’t stand the process. Especially when it’s shopping for clothes. Usually this happens when I’m dragged by my girlfriend somewhere, but even when it’s clothes for me, I loathe the atmosphere. I feel like the bright lights and droning pop music […]

Ever since Bill Romanowski shattered Kerry Collins jaw, effectively shattering the Panthers winning ways for a few years in the late 90s, I haven’t been the biggest Collins fan. He subsequently quit on the team, drank like he was on Jersey Shore, and dropped racial slurs on his teammates that would have made Strom Thurmond […]

Ever spend a Sunday morning or early afternoon constantly flipping a guy in and out of your final WR or Flex spot? Ever had an opening week where you were stuck between starting Steve Smith or Austin Collie and the rosters locked before you could decide to put Smith in? There’s got to be a […]
