It looks like hockey fans have gone bad. No season this year and now a Zamboni driver was accused of DWI at a New Jersey ice rink.

Governor Lance

Posted in atx, austin, politics, sports on June 23rd, 2005 by Mark Ramsey

The July Issue of Outside Magazine has Lance Armstrong hinting about running for governor, “not in 06″. I’m sure the allegations of doping will not stop him. They didn’t stop Arnold. Sheryl Crow as the First Lady of Texas, that sure would be something.

Boo Radley to finally Retire

Dallas Mavericks

That’s right! The Mavericks will finally be able to get the albatross off their neck. Shawn “The Mormon Mantis” Bradley will be retiring from basketball. Most Mavs fans will tell you that happened years ago. Cuban’s greatest mistake, IMHO, is now over.

Big Shot Bob Grabs his Championship Jewels

Big Shot Bob Grabs his Championship Jewels

Looks like Robert Horry is sending a message to the Detroit fans after sinking the game winning shot. The San Antonio Spurs now have the upper hand again in the NBA Finals. Robert Horry took over Game 5 with 18 points in the 4th Quarter and Overtime. At one point in the overtime, Robert Horry turned into Michael Jordan. Michael?  Is that you?
He also drained the game winning shot with about 6 seconds left on the clock. Robert Horry has been proving he has ice water in his veins in Finals for years. Horry is looking to win a championship with his third NBA team. I’m rooting for the Spurs because they are a Texas team. It sure does look like the NBA conspiracy once again is in play as we may have another 7 game series.

OFFL Project

Posted in ausffl, dffl, fantasy football, tech on June 19th, 2005 by Mark Ramsey

September is coming quick. Fantasy Football will be in the air. However, there are some team members who can not make the Draft Party. It would be very cool to have an online fantasy football online draft system setup that could also be viewed on the big screen. It’s too dangerous to rely on sportsline.com to stay up when everyone in the world is drafting the weekend before Week 1. I’m looking at OFFL, very kewl open source fantasy software. If there are any other systems out there let me know.

Michael Jackson Gets Off

Posted in rants on June 13th, 2005 by Mark Ramsey

No, he didn’t have another sleepover. They let him go without even a spanking. Will he now close down the Neverland Heavy Petting Zoo? Maybe he’ll just move to Thailand where its more accepted. He’s the King of Pop Goes the Weasel. Parents, please keep your children away from Michael Jackson. If not, don’t be suprised when they tell you tales of “Rubba Rubba.”
