Chelsea 2 -2 Bournemouth: Match Recap 1/14/2025
Chelsea 2 – Palmer 13’, James 90+5’ Bournemouth 2 – Kluivert 50’ (Pen), Semenyo 68’ — Phew…. There have been far too many games like that this season. Don’t get me wrong, it’s a bad result. But I’m feeling more thankful than angry in the moments after the game. This is what that 2022-23 season… Read more

Buddha’s Big Break
An Introduction Blog Where do I begin… We’ll get the easy stuff out of the way first and start with the present day. I hope you’re comfortable, this might be a while. Late twenties, white male, single, works to live, introvert, addicted to watching sports. Nothing really out of the ordinary there and pretty much… Read more

The Buzz in Chicago: BlockBuster is here
One by one, we emerge from the chat. Seems like standard protocol here to introduce myself, so here we go go go. Like my fellow BLNTs, I’m a life-long Chicago sports fan, and times are TOUGH, but it wasn’t always this bad. Let’s start with (unfortunately) my personal favorite and the worst team in any… Read more

Last Monday, the NFL formally put out schedules, social media posts, and press releases for Wild Card weekend. Hold up – what weekend? Super, right? Wrong. Very wrong. Fast forward 7 days later. 18 ounces of Starbucks coffee is ravaging my insides and my tin foil hat is on. The NFL knew. There would be… Read more

Post Wild Card Weekend Coaching Predictions
And just like that, Fat Face is out of Dallas. Jerry Jones, 82, has decided to cut ties with Mike McCarthy in a shocking turn of events, especially after reports suggested he would be getting an extension.

Bears Coaching Search – We’ve Ridden This Train Before
It is January 12th, 2025. I wake up to the vibration of my phone on the nightstand to my left and ignore it as I adjust my position, get comfortable under the covers, and pass a little gas (to my wife’s dismay). Another vibration, then another….. and another. The texts are coming in early and… Read more

TGL: Tomorrow’s Golf League – Night 1
Did you know this was even happening? Most probably didn’t. The marketing and noise was rather lackluster up until a couple weeks ago. And honestly, when I first heard of a “simulator golf league,” I nearly went for an AIDS test. Can I say that? I guess we’ll find out. Little did I know Tiger… Read more

Celebrate Good Times – Bears are 1-0 in 2025
It is January 7th, 2025. The Bears ended the season at 5-12, got meme’d on constantly, and were the only team in our division to miss the playoffs…. but I’m happy? We own the Packers right now. I’m not gonna talk about the clown show that 2024 was from January through December because who gives… Read more
