Rob’s Rants And Raves Fantasy Edition: Fantasy Football that is…
I hear the word fantasy and I immediately think of the word football to accompany it. This time of year, every guy pictures football (we don’t just picture Beyonce). This is my fourth and (hopefully) final version of this article. If there is something I obsess about more than football itself, it is fantasy football. As mentioned, […]

Summer, summer, summertime. Suns out guns out, ice cold drinks, Fresh Prince & Jazzy Jeff on the boom box blastin’…lemonade stands going up? I ran out of summer analogies. Point is it’s summer, mid July, and it’s time for me to rant and rave about stuff. NBA season has come to an end. MLB is […]

UFC 186: Last Minute Thought
Here he comes to save the day…Demetrious Johnson is here to stay. The flyweight champion may not be the most recognized name and face, but he is one of the most reliable and entertaining fighters the UFC has to offer. Many complain that the flyweight division is still not a big sell, but DJ has […]
Let’s Be Professionals…

Sunny D: My love letter to San Diego & the Chargers
