Two years ago, I had the privilege of attending the NBA All-Star Saturday Night Festivities. It was Dallas’ first time to host the NBA All-Star Game in over 20 years. Even so, the only event I wanted to attend were NBA All-Star Saturday Night festivities. After all, everyone knows the All-Star game itself is only …

Hey LeBron, This is What a NBA Championship Ring Looks Like
I hate to brag, but yes, this a picture of me modeling one the Dallas Mavericks’ championship rings. The Mavs are my team and, together, we continue to celebrate the 2011 NBA title. For LeBron James, Carmelo Anthony, J.R. Smith, and Steve Nash, this is what an NBA Championship ring looks like. For Dwight Howard …

Why the Republican Party Can Survive (and Thrive) Without Social Conservatives
Our office recently adopted a “no streaming” policy that prevents me from listening to as much political talk radio. You, see it’s nearly impossible to pick up an AM station in our skyscraper, and by the time a podcast is available for download, the subject matter is already stale. Even so, if I happen to …

Jeremy Lin, ESPN and Colloquialisms
Skip to Yahoo! WebPlayerBy now, you have probably heard the story of Anthony Federico–the ESPN editor fired for using “Chink in the Armor” in a headline referring to the New York Knicks’ phenom, Jeremy Lin.

Rick Santorum’s Attack on Mainline Christianity
Rick Santorum scares the hell out of me. The Republican Presidential candidate uses religion as a crutch to beat dissenters and to inspire a group of religious zealots to support his cause. What’s truly scarey is that he has convinced the conservative evangelicals–a group that has long considered the Roman Catholic Church to be an …

Saying Farewell to “The Kid”
Like many kids who grew up during the 70′s and 80′s, I learned more about Major League Baseball from baseball cards than from ESPN, Sports Illustrated, or a website. I really became serious about card collecting the summer of 1987, at the age of 8. That summer, my best friend taught me his strategy for …

The Future of Television
In 2005, Time Warner Cable issued me my first DVR. This one device revolutionized the way I watch television. No longer do networks dictate how I watch TV. Now, I watch all the shows I want to watch, when I want to watch them. Currently, we have 80 television series programmed to record on our …

The Washington Post’s lone conservative writer, Jennifer Rubin, is out with this brilliant assessment of Rick Santorum’s problem with women voters. In short, his rhetoric scares many people, and Rubin is quick to provide a video of an interview Santorum gave where he stated in no uncertain terms that he feels “birth control harms women.” …
