I was 22 years old the first time one of my friends made me watch Clone High, we were in his crappy apartment in Carol Stream that he shared with his awful girlfriend. I had no idea that shows creator would help me through some pretty difficult times in my life. If you’ve never seen …
I’m trying my hardest to get into baseball during the “hot stove season” but the White Sox lack of moves is definitely not making it easy. I decided to revisit my jersey hat rankings, to see if it sparks anything, but if not, back to focusing purely on football! I’ve done this before, but wanted …
Alkaline Trio Good Mourning The summer of 2003 I had to go to 4 Best Buy’s, 2 Targets, and 1 Circuit City before I could get my hands on what would become my favorite Alkaline Trio record and among my top 5 favorite albums of all time. Yes kids, we had to actually go shop …
As soon as I saw the Simpson/Bruckheimer logo, I knew I was in for a wild ride. That logo has meant so much to me through the years, and I never realized how Bad Boys, The Rock, Beverly Hills Cop, and Dangerous Minds all played a massive part in my growing up and adolescence. I …

I was absolutely thrilled. To his surprise, I chose Deja Entendu by Brand New as my favorite album. That album is …
This week’s one was a hard one to write. For the first time in a long time, I had to move our White Sox from 1st Place in the AL Central. The hated Twins hat moves into 1st place. A homestand against KC will definitely feel good. The Yankees and Mariners both finish atop the …
Weekly MLB Hat Standings Week 2 Welcome to the first actual week of MLB Hat Standings, now that some games have been played. No video this week as I spent the afternoon with my family, eating and hanging out. Our White Sox start the season the same way they ended it, first place in the …
Ever since I can remember, the music of Don Henley and Glenn Frey has been a part of my life. Under one of the backseats in his 1993, teal, Ford Aerostar minivan, my father had a 6 disc CD changer that I thought was the peak of technology, and the Eagles were consistently one of …
Season 2 of Atlanta is one of the best seasons of a TV show I’ve ever watched, and no one talks about its greatness. This isn’t something I say lightly. I rewatch The Sopranos once a year, and I loved The Wire, but something about Season 2 of Atlanta just felt different. If you aren’t …
Everyone who knows me knows how much I was looking forward to The Batman. I’ve seen every single Batman movie during its theatrical release since Tim Burton’s OG Batman in the summer of ’89, so my expectations for this were extremely high, and, let me tell you, it did not disappoint. I purposely avoided trailers …
