The last time I added a Beer Shots entry here on the blog I started out the post by saying, “It’s been forever and a day since I’ve added a new Beer Shots entry.” That was 14 months ago. Needless to say I’ve not been keeping up my promise to myself to be a better blogger. That said, back again tonight with a pic that… well… just feels right. The last pic was from The Annex and … Continue reading

My buddy Jordan had a tremendous idea. Every March he thinks about building a bracket of the best 64 WWE-NWO entrance songs and advancing them through voting each week of the actual NCAA tourney! He asked me to put together my list. He’s doing the same and he’s got another buddy who’s doing the same. We’re going to pull the three lists together and seed them into the official bracket. We’ve broken our regions out … Continue reading

FROM: FBI Urgent Attention To You. We sincerely apologized for sending you this sensitive information via e-mail instead of a certified mail, post-mail, phone or face to face conversation, it is due to the urgency and importance of the … Continue reading
Lots of wrestling on the site lately… what can I say, it’s WrestleMania season and I’m keeping up with my promise to myself to stay more on top of things (and to write more). It sort of shocked me when I looked back and saw just how far behind I am when it comes to PPV recaps. This is the first one I’ve done since Battleground in August and only the second since last year’s … Continue reading
On February 14, 2018, yet another mass shooting occurred at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, Florida. Seventeen people were killed and fourteen more were taken to hospitals. The shooter was 19-year-old Nikolas Jacob Cruz… may he rot in hell. As we’ve seen this play out numerous times over the years this incident has lead to numerous debates, which have turned political, which have lead to more debates, which have lead to name calling, which will lead to absolutely … Continue reading
WrestleMania 34 will be held on April 8, 2018 at Mercedes-Benz Superdome in New Orleans, Louisiana. Sadly, Pip won’t be joining me this year so it will be Mark and I (and my kids) watching the show. As I’ve outlined earlier this morning I doubt we’re going to make an attempt at the Beeramid this year but I’ve had several questions on if we were going to put our list out this year so here … Continue reading
Father Time is undefeated. He quite literally never loses. At WrestleMania 33 last year we saw what was presumably the final match of The Undertaker’s career (until they decide to roll him out again in the next six weeks in preparation for WrestleMania 34). For over a decade now Pip and I have been building the structure known simply as “The Beeramid” while we watch WrestleMania. Several years back we started to produce our yearly … Continue reading
I realize that Kyrie Irving isn’t nearly as popular in Cleveland as he once was for obvious reasons, but I was short of shocked today when I got this notification in my inbox. Get Buckets with the New Uncle Drew Teaser Trailer Um what? There’s an Uncle Drew movie coming? Sure enough it’s on its way hitting theaters this June. Uncle Drew Synopsis After draining his life savings to enter a team in the Rucker Classic … Continue reading
