Over a Year and No Mountain

It’s that time of year again. My contract is up on DIRECTV, so I’m preparing to make the switch to Dish Network for some new DVR’s and more channels for the money. I’m a bit hesitant though.

BYU vs. Utah 2006 Football Rivalry Video

Today, Google Video recommended that I watch this video. See the screenshot for proof. Now, I recommend you watch it too!

David Beckham & Barry Bonds

I read this article on SI.com this morning about David Beckham coming to America to play soccer. It seems to be all the buzz right now. Personally, I could care less.

Jeff Francoeur & Joshua 1:9

I really like Jeff Francoeur. I suppose he’ll take over as my favorite player after Chipper retires, just as Chipper took over for the gap left by Murph when he won my respect his rookie year. Why Francoeur? I’m not totally sure. I know it has nothing to do with my wife thinking he’s the [...]

Those Padres…

Last night’s amazing comeback by the Dodgers had me feeling a bit sorry for those Padres. It reminded me of a joke Nate Colbert once told me concerning how BAD the Padres were at the time: Last week a guy in San Diego had two Padres tickets on the dash of his car. He reported [...]
