Well, it was a great, great season, and a great run through the NCAA tournament for my Spartans, but last night, it came to a screeching halt. Not only did they lose the game, and not only did they lose it by 17 points, they were simply a shell of who they had been all…

It Comes Down To This
The Sabres are basically already eliminated from the 2009 Stanley Cup playoffs. They have only 9 games left, and they are a full 8 points out of the top eight spots – the playoff teams. They fell to the 10th spot and have been hovering there for quite a while, thanks largely to long absences…
Sabres Lose Top Stars, Clinging to Playoff Hopes
The Sabres seem to have plenty of bad luck in the injury department. Not just this season, but nearly every season. A few years ago, they made it to game seven of the conference finals, but most likely lost because they had one starting defenseman who was healthy! Many of the defensemen have missed time…
University at Buffalo – BOWL GAME!
I am actually an alumnus of three different universities. All undergrad. All within four years after completing high school. That’s kinda strange, but does give me a few teams to root for. One of those is playing in a bowl game today! At 1:00pm on ESPN2, you can see the UB Bulls take on UConn…
We were joined on the Buffalo Bills Review tonight by Bills starting strong safety, Donte Whitner! Was a fun (pretty short) conversation where we covered stuff like his being the 8th pick in the draft (and how that was such a surprise at the time!) and about his big playoff guarantee. Plus, he has a…
Hockey Is Back!
With football season in full swing, and alllll the other stuff going on around here in Campbell-land, it’s pretty hard to fit anything else in, but we were offered the good six-month promo price on digital cable so we decided to do it for the bulk of the hockey season. So far we have been…
Are You Ready For Some Football??
NFL football is back! The regular season starts this week with a game featuring the World Champ NY Giants and the Washington Redskins on NBC Thursday night, a full slate of games on Sunday (including the BILLS GAME!), and then a double-header on ESPN on Monday Night. I can’t wait!! The Bills are looking really…
RE: Blogging
What I have noticed over my five years of blogging is that blogging is very much about the moment. If I try to get to something later, maybe even get a few paragraphs into a draft version here, it never happens. Or, if it could, it doesn’t seem relevant anymore. (To either reader or writer.)…
Special Guests at the Apple Store
All kinds of people come into the Apple store. I get to meet and talk with people of all ages, backgrounds, and nationalities. That’s a pretty fun part of the job, actually. A couple days ago, I got to meet a few guys that were even more fun to chat with, being a long-time (big)…
Brett Favre is now a J-E-T
I just posted an article on this to my Buffalo Bills blog, but wanted to also post here… Brett Favre is a NY Jet! Holy cow. That’s crazy. I won’t elaborate here (as I already did there) but suffice it to say, our division (the AFC East) has gotten significantly more interesting. Bills first pre-season…
