This Just In: ESPnd: Clearly the best moment, at least the funniest, of this Championship Football Spin; Ray Lewis praying on the ground after the game with 100 cameras full circle around him and the CBS camera focused directly on his “Butt Crack”. Hysterical; proving once and for all that Ray Lewis is definitely an […]

admin Featured Article: From the Beginning
A very long time ago there was a serene place where the sun shone brightly on freshly new blades of grass and glistened off of the water with a sparkle only appreciated by the beautiful creatures inhabiting its plains. Birds flew freely through a magnificently clear sky and bright white puffy clouds protected the heavens above. The wind whispered and hushed over miles of desert and filtered through the night sky like sand in an hourglass. A massive Lion roared and watched his fashionable little friend drink peacefully from a babbling brook. Then suddenly, he pounced, and the world as we know it began! Read more »

January 14th, 2013 admin Stupidbowl I:
The very first Stupidbowl was held on DATE 0011 ND, otherwise known as New Years Day. World Wide Coverage was broadcast by CNN who paid $16 Trillion (the equivalent of our National Debt) for the exclusive rights. Pre-coverage was held during the day with the John Madden of Business (Ali Veshi) slamming Congress for being incredibly stupid. Announcer Anderson Cooper discussed strategy with top analysts Ali Madden, Dana Bash, and Wolf Blitzer prior to the game, and interviewed some of the “key” players. A new and exciting scoreboard was installed just days before by Jerry Jones, the Cowboys Owner, General Manager, and number one “Sports Idiot”. It was a “Texas” sized scoreboard that covered 80% of the screen. Read more »

January 14th, 2013 admin NFL Playoffs:
No surprises the first weekend in the NFL playoffs. The games weren’t close and the four best teams in each conference are the ones left standing. The Colts ran out of Luck. The Redskins ran out of gas and had a “knee” jerk reaction to RG III’s injury, and the one great rookie Quarterback that got the least attention was still playing this past weekend and almost pulled off one of the greatest comebacks in playoff history. Let’s officially name Russell Wilson: RW I.
However, big upset in Denver this past Saturday. That’s what happens when you don’t listen to Herm Edwards and “Play to Win the Game.” With under two minutes to go, and a seven point lead all Denver needed was a first down to win the game. They have Peyton Manning and they ran the ball and chose to give it back to Baltimore? Even Dan Dierdorf, who is 20 years past his prime, questioned that call. Then after an incredibly terrible play by Denver cornerback, Rahim Moore, allowing a 70 yard TD pass with under a minute to go, they get the ball back with 23 seconds left and two time outs only needing a field goal to win and they tell Peyton Manning to take a knee? In Overtime they ran the ball too much as well, playing not to lose. Incredible and a well deserved loss! Read more »

January 14th, 2013 admin The CPI and Inflation:
StatisTRIX don’t just exist in sports, which is full of them, they also exist is many areas of life including government, politics, and business. Take inflation as measured by the Consumer Price Index (CPI). While we’ve all been told that inflation is low and it will definitely rise one day so look out, and the CPI showed a drop in the month of November, the StatisTric is that it’s a false number. Just measuring prices alone does not measure inflation accurately, even if the government’s numbers are accurate. All you have to do is go to the grocery store to understand this as many of you do, but may not think about it this way. Have you noticed over the years how much less product you get for the same price or how much less the quality of the product is these days for the same price? It’s Big Business’ way of increasing prices without increasing the price. Take cereal for example. The Raisin Bran you buy used to be a full compact box. Now it’s got a lot less Raisin Bran in it. Just shake the box and you’ll see. This is “hidden inflation” that doesn’t get calculated into the CPI. But, it’s inflation no less. Don’t be fooled by the StatisTRIX. Inflation is higher than they are telling you. The biggest inflation is in the egos of the people that are telling you their prices haven’t gone up in years! Read more »

January 13th, 2013 admin Beginnings of Mankind:
One day, eight-year-old Melissa says to her mother, “Mummy, I’ve been thinking about us humans and I’m a bit puzzled. How did we humans first appear on Earth?” “That’s a very good question, darling,” her mother replies. “God made Adam and Eve and they had children and then their children had children, and as a result, mankind began.” Later that day, Melissa asks her father the same question. “Daddy, how did we humans first appear on earth?” “That’s an intelligent question, Melissa,” he replies. “Millions of years ago there were monkeys from which, gradually, the human race evolved.” Melissa is confused by this answer and goes back to her mother. “Mummy,” she asks, “how come that you told me the human race was created by God, yet daddy said they developed from monkeys?” “Well darling, replies her mother, smiling, “the answer is simple. I told you about my side of the family and your father told you about his.” Read more »
