Nice. Of course it also happened on a day I decided to take a day off from work for a family outing. I was unaware I had been linked on a national blog.

Anyway, I hope you enjoy the site and a big thanks to the guys at Deadspin for showing me a little love.

Five Predictions Proving ESPN is Clueless

UPDATE: Welcome Deadspin.com readers!!!

Change of Heart

Well sort of.

I actually started mulling this Floyd Landis controversy a little more and found a whole new litany of questions.

1. Why only one positive results out of hundreds he has had?

Landis like every other world class cyclist is tested numerous times over the course of his career. Bobby Julich wrote that [...]

Roundup!

And this was the weekend that was:

Floyd Landis on Plan C

So Landis’ “B” sample was tested and the results were announced which showed the same thing the first one showed and that was he had too much testosterone in his body and that some of it was synthetic in nature.

(pause post) Now, [...]

Where in the World?

Busy and recovering from a rare bout of flu in the summer. On top of that the sports world has not held my attention during the past week. Here is a short summary of what has been happening.

Doping

So Floyd Landis was getting a little help on that day he came back from eight [...]
