Braylon Edwards Goes Waaaayyyy Out on a Limb With Prediction

Published on: 31st December, 2009

Sorry, I wasn’t sure just how many a’s and y’s to put in the title to convey the proper level of sarcasm for Jets WR Braylon Edwards’ incredibly lame prediction.  Five seemed too many, and three not enough.  So I settled on four.
Got a problem with that?
Edwards, king of the dropped passes, is pulling a [...]

Christmas Tree Surfing–The New Sport for Morons

Published on: 31st December, 2009

Not that I have anything against morons–I too was a moron once in my life.  But even as a stupid, snot-nosed kid, I knew the difference between reckless fun and life-endangering stupidity.  Mind you, I barely knew the difference, but I still knew it.
This kid here?  Not so much.  His name is Dean Garcia, he’s [...]

Sport of Fishing Rising in Popularity in the Philippines

Published on: 31st December, 2009

If you happen to be in the Philippines in the next little while, expect to see a lot more people fishing.  And I mean a lot.  But if you think they’re out there for the sport of it, you’re way, way off.

The boon in fishing’s popularity in the Philippines has nothing to do with fish, [...]

Friends of the Fan: Bob’s Blitz

Published on: 30th December, 2009

This is long, long overdue, but as anyone who knows me, knows how much of a lazy, procrastinating douchebag I really am.  That, and I’m a slow learner.
But in the short time that I’ve had The Last Angry Fan up and running, I have learned two things: 1) like anything else, you have to pay [...]

Mother Nature Obviously Hates the Penguins

Published on: 30th December, 2009

Either that or she had some money riding on the Sabres.
Whatever the reason, the weather did the Pittsburgh Penguins no favors on their Monday trip to Buffalo.
First off, blizzard conditions in the area, or as Buffalonians call it, a light dusting, forced the team to re-route their flight to nearby Niagara Falls, New York, which [...]

The 10 Worst Sports Movies of the 2000’s

Published on: 29th December, 2009

With the end of the first decade of the 2000’s only a few days away, you can’t swing a dead cat without seeing some shitty “Top 10″ list.  And since we here are devoid of an original thought or idea, guess what we have for your viewing pleasure?
I know, I know…but really, did you expect [...]

Mikael Samuelsson has a Message for Sweden’s Olympic Hockey Program

Published on: 28th December, 2009

To say Mikael Samuelsson is pissed at being left off the roster for the Swedish Olympic hockey team is an understatement.  Samuelsson assumed he’d be a lock for the 2010 Olympic squad, seeing that a) he’s a fairly decent NHL forward, and b) he was on the 2006 gold-medal winning Swedish team.
But nope, Samuelsson got [...]

Expect Doritos Sales to Skyrocket in Breckenridge, Colorado in 2010

Published on: 28th December, 2009

I don’t ski.  Tried it once–but quickly found that I lacked the co-ordination and athletic ability required to shush down a hill without killing myself.  Well that, and the fact that I almost ended up with a ski pole up my ass.
I may have to give skiing another try though–as long as I do it [...]
