Penn State “Cross” T-Shirt Controversy is the Kind of Crap That Pisses Everyone Off

That t-shirt to the right will be worn for yet another “White Out” at State College next weekend when rival Ohio State visits Penn State. Apparently, a handful of people complained about the t-shirt, and the Anti-Defamation League got involved, and now it’s a full-blown “story.” All 30,000 t-shirts sold. Supposedly, there were six complaints . How is this a story? Tell those idiots to buzz off and yank their tickets. Next thing you know, they’ll spill coffee on themselves and sue

Friday Night Lights Season Four Kicks Off

The fourth season of Friday Night Lights premiers tomorrow night on the 101 channel of DirecTV (for those of us fortunate to have DirecTV… I bought mine solely for FNL). I urge you to watch it if you can! Find someone with DirecTV! Or search for it online. Or wait until 2011 and watch it on NBC. Just don’t miss it! I still marvel at the number of people I know who have yet to see an episode of this fantastic show. These are people who like Mad Men and Lost and appear to know good TV when

Fun For All?…Well, Just Ask George

Jump to CommentsIt’s a great feeling having your photo taken and being told how much someone has enjoyed your show and that you are a good Cruise Director. It is also rewarding when you can turn a negative into some kind of positive and it is also very much part of the job to have to stand and listen to someone who regardless of what you say is going to want to tell you what I or the company I work for has done wrong.This is the job of the Cruise Director. I accept all of the above and even don’

The Party Line — Phone Buzz of the Day

Here are some of today’s phone conversations I enjoyed reading or viewing on the web, along with some brief thoughts: Soccer moms and smartphones (RWW) — You know smartphones are catching on in the mainstream when we have quantitative reports on how moms use their iPhones. Seriously, this report was well worth the read

Conventional Wisdom Scoffs at NFL in London. Why?

Americans understand the English. Bob Glauber rode the tube two years ago . Dan Shaughnessy can unleash an arsenal of ethnic stereotypes . Greg Walsh knows his “ tea and crumpets .” With our perfect knowledge, we know an NFL franchise will never work in London. We just know. It’s obvious. Why bother to analyze it? There’s a common element to this type of ungrounded, conventional wisdom. It’s stupid.

NFL Late Games: Stop by Raiders-Jets For a Few Laughs

The two late afternoon games I’m being treated to are Jets-Raiders and Falcons-Cowboys. Both games are must see, but for different reasons. Matt Ryan and Michael Turner lighting up the board on Jerry’s big TV is alluring in many ways, and being able to watch SidFarkus Russell play the role of quarterback for the second time in two weeks ( L 7 - 44 ) will be awesome. Buffalo (2-4) @ Carolina (2-3) — Thanks to a humorous barber, Jake Delhomme continues to carry the spirit of Lloyd Chris

West Ham Preview

West Ham Position: 19th, 1-2-5 (5 points, -3 goal differential) Recent Form: LLLDL Away Form: 0-1-2 Last Meeting: Arsenal 0-West Ham 0 (1/31/09) London derby match against West Ham tomorrow. On paper, this should be a walk for Arsenal, but if you look a little more closely, there’s every reason to believe this could be a very tough match-up. Gianfranco Zola’s men did manage to hold us to a draw in the last meeting between the two sides at the Emirates in January. And despi
