So I am on the verge of Ecstasy. For a variety of reasons, the past 5 nights have been the worst stretch of getting sleep in my life. No crazy vices going on here, but just random freak flareups of items that I take I had to handle. From Friday night until this moment, I […]

However its becoming more clear just how large and diverse that impact is. I am not just talking political blogs, and Obama or Mccain badges here or there. For instance, tailgaters are […]

It’s been a rough year, especially on offense for the Wolverines who somehow find themselves 3 point favorites against Illinois. The good news is that Rich Rod has just signed a 5 star recruit at QB to take the reigns of the fledgling Wolverine offense. Below is his highlight reel.

Been pretty sick the past couple of days, but thought I would get back to blogging with a much missed Commercial of the week. Southwest has always been known as the low cost, no frills airline. While this commercial is nothing special, it once again differientates what they are doing from their competitors.

The first one is with Ronnie Lott who discusses a variety of things. Ronnie is an investor to Yardbarker, a NFL legend, as well as personal hero to me growing up. I […]

A lot of people have already documented some of the highlights of my trip to BlogWorld, so I’ll keep this one fresh by focusing on things other than my many adventures outside of the Convention Center. It was about 2 months ago, when I was told that we were going to be sponsors of this […]

The Governator fought hard to ensure California would be the state where Tesla Motors would produce their 5 seat luxury sedan slated to come out in 2010. Today we found out that San Jose won the local battle for the facility with the facility opening up sometime in 2008 right off 237 and Zanker Road. […]
