You Talkin’ To Me: A Blogger Sets The Record Straight On His Questions

By David Xaviel is the Hobby Horse On July - 30 - 2009
"You talkin' to me? You talkin' to me? You talkin' to me? Then who the hell else are you talkin' to? You talkin' to me? Well I'm the only one here. Who the f*** do you think you're talking to?" "Roger Ebert called this quote 'the truest line in the film.'  This line was also described by Ebert as 'Travis Bickle's ... desperate need to make some kind of contact somehow—to share or mimic the effortless social interaction he sees all around him, but does not participate in.'" I also like this Kris Kristofferson song, which was used in Taxi Driver.  ...

F1 for Dummies: How to Save This Kitten

By Duncan Scott On July - 29 - 2009
I keep telling people I loathe Bleacher slide shows, so here I am with another one. My purpose today is to promote and explain the sport of F1, but I'm not going to tell you that F1 is better than NASCAR or IRL. Why would I do that? I am going tell you that F1 is a wonderfully simple sport to follow. How simple? The driver who finishes first in a race is the winner, if only NASCAR had such clarity. So having established that my purpose is to provide a brief guide to F1, it's time to go on with the show. Oh yes, ...
A man was beaten to death in a savage and needless fracas that occurred outside of Citizen’s Bank Park in the final innings of the Philadelphia Phillies 14-6 home win versus the St. Louis Cardinals on Saturday night.   Police said the brawl initially erupted between a group from a bachelor party and other drunk patrons inside McFadden’s Restaurant and Saloon next to the Phillies' ballpark.   Bouncers employed at the watering hole were reportedly able to successfully eject the fighting degenerates from the establishment.   However, the melee, which involved as many as 30 patrons, moved outside into parking lot “M.”   When the vicious bloodbath that ...

Oakland Raiders Got to Clean Up What They Messed Up

By Damali Binta Yael On July - 29 - 2009
The rhythm was syncopated. The words were simple: "I got to clean up, what I messed up...starting all over again." I started rocking and rolling in my car, turned the radio up like one of those hip-hop kids who stops at a stop sign and blasts his radio. The radio was so loud, you could feel the vibrations of the bass in the sound system. An idea came to me—this is exactly the concept we need to share in order to reverse the NFL record of the Oakland Raiders. I felt something special going on. The topic I was to teach, today, in a college algebra ...
