I’ll be honest. I started writing this piece on Sunday with an entirely different beginning. After the Willis McGahee fumble, I really thought this was going to be a post-mortem piece for the Tebow phenomenon. But we all saw what happened in the waning moments in that game in Denver yesterday. Instead of a look… Read More Tim Tebow and the Idiotic “Race” Argument
EDITOR’S NOTE: I’m going to warn you up front…The following piece revolves around a very ugly and uncomfortable topic. This piece contains some offensive language and a discussion of an even more offensive topic. If you are easily offended or are not willing to see a “bare-knuckle” discussion of race relations as they exist in… Read More Open Letter To Bryant Gumbel: You Are A Race-Baiting Parasite

It may be that I finally have become the grumpy old man (it doesn’t help that I idolize Joe Paterno), but given some recent past events, I think we are witnessing the destruction of what was once the wonder of sports. Honestly, I’m a middle-aged guy whose formative years were in the late 70’s and… Read More Why Sports Will Suck In The Future
Here we are; another October full of post-season baseball. Let’s be honest, most of the crap I said about these teams six months ago was wrong, so why not go for month number seven proving I have no idea what I’m talking about. Take the following for example (from April 22nd): California in General: The Padres are leading… Read More The Dubsism Baseball Power Rankings: The Post-Season “Why You Shouldn’t Cheer For” Edition
Here’s another case of somebody who while embroiled in controversy had my support up until the point when they said something SO stupid that I had no choice but to re-evaluate my position.
