The Midwestern Take on the Wide World of Sports.

Here Goes Nothing

Since my lesser half has already posted on the blog already, I figured I had best follow suit. I'm the other guy on the right, Andrew Jacobson. And yes, I'm the good looking one; I'll see what I can do to get my shining face somewhere on this page (your welcome).

 I too graduated from Ohio State, but with a worthless B.S of psychology, but am in the process of applying to graduate school. I have only one sibling and enjoy many of the standard "dude" things in life from sports to video games to books about war (and a few other things that I won't mention to preserve my dignity). I currently work part time at the Fawcett Center for Tomorrow, but essentially live off my girlfriend since she's the bread winner these days. That's me in a nutshell; I'm a simple person.

Onto why hopefully most of you are here, the sports. It's probably important for me to preface this with the fact that I am a very passionate sports fan. In other words, I yell and scream my head off for all of my teams because they mean more to me than most anything else. I'm not the worlds most creative person, so I'll just go ahead and copy Hilt's format and give you a run down of a few things that I hold near and dear in the world of sports.

1) NFL first. I love all other sports, from MLB to NASCAR. And damn do I ever love my Buckeyes, don't get me wrong. But I'm always going to prefer the NFL product over the corrupt, hypocritical, moronic game that the crusty old NCAA trustees put onto the gridiron. 

2) I hate Tim Tebow. SO.DAMN.MUCH! That's right, I hate him enough to put this as number 2 on the list. Don't argue with me about it, don't try to change my opinion. It's a waste of time and I will likely cause you harm.

3) I loathe the SEC. Unarguably siding with Nick on this one. They are a bunch of scumbag jackasses who will literally do anything to win (over-signing, Scam Newton, Brandon Spikes gouging eyes out, to name a few) but never receive an ounce of punishment. In fact, I'd punish my kids worse( if I had them) for waking me up early on a Saturday then the NCAA has punished members of the SEC.

4) I don't care about steroids anymore. Let them juice all they want. If they die because of it, that's the athletes problem. I'm too sick of steroids to care about them anymore.

5) The NHL is coming back. Slowly but steadily. And the best part is, it's only thanks to its own increase in popularity. Get an educated commish in there and the NHL could get back to where it was pre-lockout.

6) Rodger Goodell is a prick.

7) David Stern is a bigger prick.

8) Tiger Woods did for golf what Magic and Larry did for the NBA, and I love him for it.


I could keep going and make about a hundred more comments about each sport, but instead I'll stop here and hope you are intrigued enough to come back to see what else I may have to say. And definitely check out the podcast; if nothing else its hilarious to listen to Hilt blow our openings to our segments.
