All of us have had friends who are in a complicated relationship. It may even have been us: the guy recently began dating a much more attractive woman who, while not a young bombshell, is still a gorgeous woman. This woman recently ended an intense relationship but does not treat your friend like a rebound […]

If you think modern-day tackles by the likes of Nigel de Jong and Ryan Shawcross are horrible, take a look at the above video from a 1970 Manchester derby where United legend George Best comes late to a ball and fiercely tackles City's Glyn Pardoe. The result was a horrific broken leg for Pardoe, a […]

It's early days, but I'm beginning to see a lot of worrying parallels between Blackburn manager Steve Kean and Sammy Lee, assistant manager at Liverpool. Lee was assistant manager at Bolton Wanderers for two years under Sam Allardyce. When Lee stepped up to become manager after Sam Allardyce left to join Newcastle United, Lee finally […]

If you're like me, the holidays are a time of getting out of your workday routines due to relaxation/travel/stress. In fact, at times I miss news stories because I tend not to check news sites or Twitter as much as I normally do. So as I begin my work week routine again, I notice that […]

It was 2004 when I cut the cord from Bellsouth, my local phone company. I got rid of the landline and Internet access, and signed up with Comcast for my Internet access and Vonage for my VOIP phone line. Then a few years later, I cut the "virtual cord" and dropped Vonage so that my […]

Manchester United's kept their spot at the top of the league, no matter how many times Gary Neville tried to give it away. Macnehster City's even on points after their win over Blackpool, while Arsenal was convincing at a St. Andrews' Stadium that's often inhospitable to visitors.
