« Previous EntriesPants’ Blog: Fall Review
Friday, December 5th, 2008SHE’S BACK.
So, in the time since my last blog Notre Dame has had one of the worst seasons in program history, the Eagles seemed to have left the planet and then returned at least for one day, the Phillies are World F-in Champs and college basketball has returned. So, needless to say it’s been [...]

What Are Your Crazy Sports Superstitions?
Thursday, July 31st, 2008Pants blogs for PhillyJock every Thursday
Where has the summer gone? It seems like just yesterday I was excited about the thaw and pitchers and catchers reporting. Now we find ourselves in the middle of football training camp reading up on the dailies at Lehigh. The all-star break is over, trades and who will be around [...]
Rick Mahorn the Peacemaker?
Thursday, July 24th, 2008There are certain players who just make a franchise proud. Looking back I think the Sixers most notable Franchise Player would be the one and only Dr. J.

The Top 10 Unretired Athletes
Thursday, July 17th, 2008Are you surprised? Brett Favre wants to come out of retirement. He expressed in a conference call with Green Bay general manager Ted Thompson and coach Mike McCarthy that he would like to unretire. So, basically my understanding is that the Pack doesn’t want him back and has moved on, so he has asked [...]
Why is Drexel Running the Big 5?
Friday, June 27th, 2008It’s an argument that happens every year, especially if Drexel has a good win and even more so if the Dragons happen to beat any of the Big 5 teams.

Interviewing 101
Thursday, June 19th, 2008Did you happen to catch Kevin Garnett’s post-game interview with Michelle Tafoya after the Celtics won the NBA Championship Tuesday evening?
I do not know who to blame for this debauchery – ESPN for not going back to the commentators, the Celtics Public Relations person for not being next to Garnett or assigning someone to him [...]

Indy Cover Your Heart!
Thursday, May 22nd, 2008Pants blogs every Thursday for PhillyJock.com
Indiana Jones is back, or is he? I guess we’ll see tonight as the newest chapter in the Indy Files is released. The thought of seeing People’s sexiest man alive, circa 1998 (a good year for the Pants), on the big screen again got me thinking. When you can take [...]
