Amazing Happened Again

Amazing Happened Again

Posted by The Gimcracker in Sports on 22. May, 2009 | Comments

I told you to watch the NBA playoffs because remember how I was talking about where does amazing happen and then you put it on your mental list to watch at least a quarter of one game to make me feel better? Or were you just saying that? Well in either case amazing happened again last night (that’s what she said I wish).

Where Will Amazing Happen?

Where Will Amazing Happen?

Posted by The Gimcracker in Amazing, ROFL, Sports on 08. May, 2009 | Comments

I have been watching the NBA Playoffs this year. I don’t know why I have. I just have. I really like this year’s commercials because they make basketball seem good again even though it’s not good. It’s not good at all. But when you put it in black & white and add poignant piano music, it becomes epic.

The videos are after the jump. They get really good towards the bottom. Hint hint. What I mean by hint hint is that is they get funny. You gotta be kidding me that I have to spell things out like that.

OK, Enough With The Roller Derby Stuff

OK, Enough With The Roller Derby Stuff

Posted by The Gimcracker in Sports on 16. Apr, 2009 | Comments

I feel like roller derby thinks it’s going to rise up and become a prominent force in our society much like NFL or McDonalds or Paul Walker (just kidding) and I want to sit roller derby down and say to her “you are tenacious but please – enough already” because seriously IT’S FOR LESBIANS. It’s OK that it’s for lesbians, and I am not bashing lesbians in any way shape or form. But the fact is that if something is targeted to such a small slice of the population, it’s not going to become mainstream enough to have any kind of bearing on our culture.

Tony Dungy Short Retrospective Video on NFL.com

Posted by The Gimcracker in Sports on 13. Jan, 2009 | Comments

Tony Dungy has retired from the game of football as many have predicted he would this season. I’m very sad to see him go as he is one of the most respected coaches in all of football, and one of the most dignified men ever to have played the game. I actually am looking forward to all the segments on Sportscenter over the next few weeks and all of the commentary on why he should or shouldn’t have retired, because it will be nice to see how widely respected he is around the league.

Wes Welker Gets Jacked Up

Posted by The Gimcracker in Amazing, Sports on 03. Dec, 2008 | Comments

I don’t like The Patriots. And I don’t like Wes Welker. So the following video greatly pleased me. Keep in mind, I’m speaking on a professional level here. I’m sure in real life Wes Welker is… probably an arrogant jerk.

Jacked Up

Posted by The Gimcracker in Amazing, Sports on 19. Nov, 2008 | Comments

I love when football players get hit. That’s why I have a Bob Sanders jersey. I can’t stand watching athletes get injured, yet I love when they get jacked up. Go figure.
Watching the Colts beat Houston this past Sunday, especially when Sage Rosenfels begins to weep after he throws that last interception, reminded me of [...]

Why I Read “Basic Instructions”

Posted by The Gimcracker in Music, ROFL, Sports, Stuff On The Internet on 09. Oct, 2008 | Comments

A while back, a good friend introduced me to the web comic called Basic Instructions. As I’m writing this the website is down, and I’m pretty sure it’s because today’s strip is hilarious and everyone’s reading it. It must have gotten submitted to Digg or something. If you don’t read this comic, you should. I’m [...]

DeSean Jackson: Talented Idiot

Posted by The Gimcracker in Fail, Sports on 16. Sep, 2008 | Comments

In case you missed the Monday Night Football game last night between Philly and Dallas, I’d like to show you something.
First of all, the game was amazing, and I don’t regret how tired I am this morning due to watching the entire game.
Secondly, I hate Terrell Owens. He was the only player that [...]

Jim Mora & Christian Lander: They’ve Got Something In Common

Posted by The Gimcracker in News, Sports on 04. Sep, 2008 | Comments

TV and football, that’s what.
There’s a new Coors Light press conference commercial tonight during the opening game of the NFL, featuring Jim Mora. Hopefully it will be as funny as his first one:

Also, if you’re like me and you read Stuff White People Like, I’ve got some news for you. The author, Christian Lander, is [...]

What Is An Electrolyte?

Posted by The Gimcracker in Blogging, Sports on 03. Jun, 2008 | Comments

I was reading this post about salt tablets taken during long distance running on this blog about running and started thinking to myself, “why do you need salt if you run for a long distance?” This prompted me to click on the website for S!Caps where I kept seeing the words like sodium, potassium, and [...]

    You made it to the third set of widgets on my widget slider sidebar mechanism. There are only two reasons you could end up here: 1) because you are so into TGM that you read every word on every page, or 2) because you are trying to find something incriminating so you can hurt my reputation because I have offended you in some way (you're probably a Twitter fan boy or a Multigrain Cheerios lover). If you are here because of #2 and you want a bit of juicy gossip then here you go: I used to steal candy bars from the gift shop I worked at in the airport when I was 17 because they forged my time card to have less hours than I really worked. There's a slight chance that if you really put your mind to it and told the right people you could somehow hurt my reputation. At least I'll know that if I get a notice of a lawsuit in the mail regarding this matter that there was at least one person out there reading my blog :)
