The Swamp

The problem in Phoenix was always the location of the arena, until they moved. Phoenix has traffic and it was a tough location. Now they play in that tiny facility, but at least they sell it out.

Let's age ourselves, where were you when the verdict came down. Being the old guy here, I was well into my working life. I don’t know where I was for the verdict, but for the slow-motion Bronco chase, I recall it was a Friday, post-work hours, and I was having drinks with work friends at a Palo Alt...

It is kind of shocking/amusing when you read about pitchers throwing extra-inning complete games in the olden days. A pitcher named Jim Brosnan were diary books of his 1962/63(?) seasons (I own both books - they are like Jim Bouton’s Ball Four , without the salacious parts). Brosnan talks about how ...

Good stuff, Swamp dads!

Great running back. I knew a guy who grew up in the same San Francisco neighborhood as OJ and Al Cowlings (he was a couple years younger than them). He said that in addition to being a star high school and Juco running back, he and his friends were also well known in the neighborhood as being tough ...

I love her.

Chiefs may need to consider drafting a receiver.

Crazy that Matt Holliday was in the big leagues in 2018, and now his kid is there.

Was it him or Zach Morris who went right-wingy? Worst I can find for JVDB is one "Biden is too old" rant that Fox News picked up on. I think the alma mater would have avoided him if he'd gone anywhere approaching full-MAGA. What probably made me think this is when anyone moves from Califo...

Wiki tells us it is the hometown of jazz great John Coltrane, soccer star Eddie Pope and blues guitarist Bob Margolin!

There was an entry fee?

$200 per entry!

Graham’s pushing for a national abortion ban. Trump is positioning himself as in favor of the states doing it (which is just pre-election politics). Trump doesn’t like his butt-kissers not 100% endorsing whatever he says.

Puddy could do it, alright! Kevin James sucks donkey balls.

You probably already assumed this, but I just read Rex Chapman’s new memoir and it sounds like Kentucky is an incredible pressure cooker for the coaches and players.

The big news is that I hear the Big Guy is going to Rapture all the evangelicals away during the eclipse. Imagine how great it will be after they leave!

TurboTax has a free version. My daughter filed her taxes just now. And it was free. I was a bit surprised because she did earn reasonably good money (but was between jobs for awhile, so maybe that’s why it was free.)

Hey, Tom. As you may remember, I live just a bit south of San Francisco. My wife is a great travel planner. I don’t know this hits your needs, but she suggests looking at county tourism websites for ideas on your trip. Air bnb sites, too. But, I know a lot of tourist-oriented destinations won’t do o...

In their last 13 games, San Jose is 0-11 against non-St. Louis teams, 2-0 against the Blues.

To me, it’s about consistency. Would the refs have called it a foul in the second quarter?

We Californians can’t drive in the rain or snow, but we scoff at your collective alarm over a minor shake.

I’ll always love Barclay Goodrow for his playoff heroics for the Sharks. Getting to be a long time ago…

My Hokas are a little tight. My old Brooks were a better fit.

They plan to play in Sacramento in 2025 through 2027. Seating capacity 10,624. 325 feet in right field, 330 in left. Sounds like a bandbox to me.

According to Andrew Marchand of The Athletic, the NFL's flagship network has cut ties with on-air personalities Andrew Siciliano, Melissa Stark, James Palmer and Will Selva. An NFL Network spokesperson would not confirm the names of those who were laid off, but did confirm that cuts were happening....

Another question...is just skating away after someone throws down their gloves ever a thing or is there some sort of alpha-male, emasculatory, bullshit, unwritten rule about that? I think there are lots of occasions where one guy challenges another but gets turned down. In that case gloves are gene...

Just received a new notice for jury duty; first week of April. In the past, I worked hard to make sure I didn’t get selected. But, hell. Now that I’m retired, maybe I’ll try to get selected. Wonder if they’d object to me live-swamping the experience? I am excused from jury duty without having to re...
