THE SUPER BOWL IS SUNDAY!
With the Patriots not even sniffing the NFL Playoffs this year, the entire postseason has been a little slower around New England. However, in case you’ve forgotten, THE SUPER BOWL IS SUNDAY!That’s right, whether the Pats are in it or not, Sunday is still the biggest combination of beer, grizzle and football you’re gonna find this year.

It’s just been sitting up there floating around and since it’s still there I decided to just write it down and let the chips fall where they may.Please remember three things:1. I am not a theologian2. I am not mentioning the name of the Christian church I grew up in, in hope that my experience was unique to that church3. I do not consider myself a person of great faithFinding faith in God was a long road for me. I remember being very young and being

TTCS does not condone illegal gambling. But if we did, here are ten prop bets we’d suggest wagering on come Super Sunday. – All lines courtesy of betus.com 10: 1st quarter points Over/Under– Total 10 In the past decade, since Super Bowl 33 (Broncos over Falcons), only one Super Bowl has seen a total of 10 points or more in the first quarter: Bears/Colts in 2007. The teams in the big game are so nervous being out there, so jacked up to finally be running around and hitting an opposing player
Whew! Finding Amanda a Real Roller Coaster Ride
I have been busy at work all week and busy every evening with an event, so the blog fell by the way side. I did take time out tonight to watch “Finding Amanda,” a very dark and cynical comedy about addictions from 2008 starring Matthew Broderick. I never even heard of this film before and in the beginning I thought I’d picked a loser. Not so. The acting was terrific and the script really hit me in the solar plexus, when I wasn’t groaning or laughing. It’s not for the faint-hearted, especiall

The Killing Fields of NoVa…
Posted by Dave McKenna on Jan. 30, 2009, at 12:31 am I wrote a column this week about the killing of Sal Culosi, shot three years ago last weekend by Fairfax County SWAT officer Deval Bullock. At the time of his death, Culosi was under investigation for sports betting.Nobody was ever charged with any crimes in either the gambling investigation or the killing of Culosi, who was unarmed when he was gunned down in front of his house.Culosi’s death came during what felt like a spree of deadly and in
Battle of the Rookie Card
Things were much more simpler back in 1986. There was no “1 of 1?, high-end products, or thirty releases per year to try to keep up with. If by chance you were a Cecil Fielder collector, you had a whopping three cards to bring into your collection which were considered rookie cards.If you only know Cecil as being Prince’s deadbeat, degenerate gambling father… I feel bad for you. He was without a doubt, the ultimate baseball underdog of his era. By the beginning of the 90’s, Cecil had four season

I Get Edgy Around This Time, II
When O’Malley obtained the governor’s office, he increased spending on a few pet projects, drained the rainy day fund to pay for it, and proclaimed no need to raise taxes. Then, he called for a special session to address gambling PLUS raise taxes and they did that as well as increase spending. This was even though EVERYONE was saying the housing market was tanking and that economic storms were forming. This year what does that putz do? He gives raises to his staff, spends more money to pay o
Why Barack Obama Can’t Fix the U.S. Economy
Jan292009 I voted for Barack Obama.I am on his side 110%But……..I don’t believe he has the power or capability to fix the U.S. economy.He has grand ideas, and is filled with hopeful ambition, but that’s not enough to fix our economy.Congress does not have the moral will or political courage to do what is right.Republicans continue to demand tax cuts, tax cuts, tax cuts, knowing full well that the Reagan and Bush era tax cuts are partially responsible for the current economic nightmare we now fac
