NBA: The NFL Should Learn Something From NBA Draft
Posted in NBA, NFL on June 25, 2009 | Leave a Comment »
While the NFL took a major step this past season by making the amount of time alloted to teams for making picks in the first round of the draft shorter, they need to go one step further. Tonight’s NBA draft has selection times at 4 minutes. It gives teams a perfect amount of time to [...]

BRUCE SPRINGSTEEN: Landau Statement
Posted in Springsteen on June 22, 2009 | 1 Comment »
Bruce’s longtime manager Jon Landau released a statement on the continuing controversy involving themselves and Ticketmaster.

No show tonight…short on time. Bottom lines are these: 1) Tiger came out and putted atrociously this morning, +4 on his last 4 holes, and now sits a lovely (not) 10 shots behind the lead. What does he need to do? Come out really fast tomorrow, hope they get to play a lotta golf, and [...]
