If you haven’t seen “Dexter” on Showtime, you’re missing some quality television viewing. I am not one to sit and watch a lot of tv, but this show has successfully pinned me to my couch for weeks now as my wife & I watch seasons 1-3. We are midway through the 3rd season and the [...]

I gotta be honest…I didn’t watch the VMA’s last night (do they still MAKE music videos? Because I haven’t seen any on television in forever…). I was too busy hanging out with my wife & kids and then we tuned in to watch some more Dexter (which is my new favorite show). But this morning [...]

Two Voices Gone

On Monday, one of the greatest remaining voices in television and sports broadcasting passed away. Harry Kalas was the voice of the Philadelphia Phillies and was set to work his 39th year with the Phils. Known as “Harry The K”, Kalas made the catch phrase “Outta here!” for a home run ball famous and his [...]

So this week I’m in Augusta, GA working the CBS internet coverage of Amen Corner. This is my 4th year and it is one of my favorite events to work. I see many friends and we work a prestigious event and life is all good. As long as the weather cooperates, that is. So far [...]

C’mon Drew! Fight the power!
I was at the gym today and watching several of the large televisions that they have positioned overhead as I sweat my way through 30 minutes on the elliptical machines. On 2 of them, ESPN. On another, a Hollywood gossip show. Another had Rachel Ray. Yet another…a Judge Judy show. And [...]

Being in Dayton this past week for the NCAA Tournament brought back memories that have started to fade from not so long ago. Almost 7 years ago, I was a part of a band of rowdies who were brought together to create a morning show that was to air on 10 affiliates across the country. [...]

LOVE the Madness that is college basketball! And lucky me gets to work in the middle of it! This year, I am conveniently located in Dayton, OH at UD Arena where I got to enjoy some great basketball that went down. In the first game on Friday, Oklahoma State knocked off Tennessee by 2 points. [...]

I am in Tampa, FL working for a company called Raycom Sports. They have been producing sports events for the SEC & ACC for over 25 years now. I haven’t been working for them THAT long, but I can say I’ve put in maybe 6 years now (I think) and I have to tell you [...]

So I don’t watch a lot of television. Can’t stand a lot of the crap out there, so you won’t find me watching too much except for American Idol and Monday nights when I watch “Heroes” (except for season 2…which was kinda not good) and my favorite guilty pleaseure…”Chuck”. If you’ve never seen “Chuck”, you [...]

Seriously?
I realize that we are all out of unique and entertaining forms of television. Not a day goes by where I am flipping through stations (because that’s all I really do when I watch tv…change the channel…CONSTANTLY) and I come across another game show or reality show that’s not really reality or another stupid sitcom [...]

Last night I got my American Idol fix, watching the last 5 episodes off my new DVR(damn thing was 80% full by the time I got home from being gone for 2 weeks! Hey! I’ve been busy!). And after watching, I can tell you this much…I didn’t miss much.
The final 2 weeks of the tryouts [...]

It’s been a quiet week here in Tampa. We’ve had good weather except for Thursday, when it rained the entire day. But I’ll take the one day of crap weather over the ice/snow shitstorm that hit the northeast over this past week. Here are some pictures of what MY week has been like. Very exciting [...]

A recent search on Wikipedia lists a Type A personality as “impatient, excessively time-conscious, insecure about their status, highly competitive, hostile and aggressive, and incapable of relaxation”.
A Type B personality is “patient, relaxed, and easy-going”.
This week, I am working with a person who is Type A…all the way. And she knows it. And she accepts [...]

Me & Anne now…

and back in the day…
As I travel around, I am lucky that I get to see and hang with good friends from my past, present and future. I get to visit so many different places and cities where, inevitably, there is someone I know living where I am going.

My college friend, Tom, in [...]

Ain’t THIS the truth???
Seriously…anybody watching this crap? Ever since Tuesday, Fox News has been reporting on Barack Obama’s Blackberry and whether or not he took the oath “officially”. Are they serious with this crap? Have they got nothing better to talk about?
They have NOT rambled on for hours about decisions Obama has made already to [...]
