I always keep an eye out for solid commercials as I hate scrambling to pick one, when its time to select a Commercial of the Week. This week I found myself impressed by a pair of new Nike commercials. I have always enjoyed the vast majority of Nike’s commercials and found the below ads to […]

I tend to keep an eye out for interesting movies in production or slated to be coming out soon. A lot of movies I tend to enjoy are adaptions and interpretations of real life events. 2 recent ones that come to mind are Into the Wild (great sound track) and American Gangster. With that in […]

I absolutely love my Iphone and have recommended it to a lot of friends have gone onto positive experiences with it as well. Initially I had some gripes, but over time the various software upgrades alleviated most of my issues. However there is still one glaring defect that mocks me on a weekly basis. The […]

The Wire may not be my favorite show on television, but it was by far the best and I will miss it dearly. Shows like The Office, Entourage, and the Sopranos may have entertained me more or warranted repeat viewings with my friends, but in my opinion they were nowhere near the brilliance of The […]

I constantly find myself in disbelief over what seems to capture the American public’s attention. Less and less real news is being reported with more paparazzi/tabloid garbage gaining traction with mainstream media outlets. With this in mind, I found myself giddy upon hearing from a friend that Ashton Kutcher would now be collaborating with pop […]

I have two great friends in town this week, hence my blogging has been down. Its been an awesome past couple of days, taking advantage of all the fun stuff in and around the Bay Area and of course the weather (I am told a bad blizzard hit Ohio yesterday while we were at the […]

Today Brett Favre retired. Rather than trying to add analysis to something that has been covered ad nauseum, I am going to showcase his longjevity by benchmarking Brett’s career to other significant things in my life. 1991 Brett Favre: Favre’s only year not as a Packer. Throws 4 passes. Ben Koo: Third grade, learned long […]

Its been awhile since I have had a Bucknuts article. A lot of that has had to do with the fact that I am not of the school of thought that most spots talk guys are (cynical, outlandish, dwell on controversy,). I like to focus on positive stories and usually Ohio State football and basketball […]

College football and basketball recruiting is becoming more and more prevalent in main stream media. Fans spend hours on a weekly basis trying to follow the recruiting sagas that develop on a yearly basis. However the video below is one that will likely never be forgotten. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xQE87qfLpqM&hl=en&fs=1

Saw 2 commercials that impressed me this week. I’ll go with the new Audi A5 commercial by a hair over the Propel commercial. Audi is having a lot of traction with 20 and 30 year old business professionals who are finding value over this luxury brand compared to that of Lexus, BMW, and Mercedes. Apple’s […]

With March around the corner, I thought I would call attention to a handful of interesting items. Also if you are bored feel free to check out my blog on ranking the sports months and see where February and March get ranked – ESPN this week got rid of Sean Salisbury but added two Buckeyes. […]

You probably have never heard of the web video rising star “I am f_ucking Ben Affleck” and are probably unfamiliar with the works of Jonathon Coulton. However via the power of new media outlets such as youtube, instant messenger, blogs, and message boards (and of course procrastination) both are poised to infiltrate the American sub […]

Haven’t seen to many new ads I like this week. Chevron has some cool advertisements about clean energy that I like, but I know its just a lot of fluff and marketing spin. I think most viewers are probably skeptical of if as well. One company that seems to be legitimately committed to improving fuel […]

Yesterday I wrote one of my more popular blogs about how I find my interest and patience waning in social networking sites like myspace and facebook. In regards to myspace, I wrote that in no way shape or form has myspace made any improvements to its interface, realizability , and ability to handle illegimate accounts […]
