Arlen Specter is an Idiot

Yeah, that’s right, I said it.  And it’s true.  This guy just won’t stop.  Get over it.  The Eagles lost the Super Bowl.  This is one of the most ridiculous things I’ve heard.  We’re talking about sports.  We’re talking about video signals.  We’re not talking about drugs in the form of steroids, and we’re certainly not talking [...]

My Interview With Casey Tyler

Earlier this week, I was fortunate enough to be able to interview Patriots’ rookie defensive lineman Casey Tyler.  It’s my first player interview (in fact, I think I’m one of the first blogs to get one), and I thought I’d share it with everyone.
