I may or may not be able to post much again this week. Every time I think I can, something comes up. In the meantime though, what I worked on last week was actually for another site. I'll post it here later, but for now, make sure you bookmark or add Whatever Nation to your... Continue Reading →

Football in the rain
It' always weird how weather patterns work in San Diego. This game was about 10 miles north of where we live. It had rained from about 9am through lunchtime at SportsBoy's school & also at my office. 15 miles South in downtown the Padres were playing a game that started at 4:00pm - a delay...

Is this thing on?
Oh hey, hi! I do have a blog don't I? One that should cover more than just freshman football? Well, you see, the thing is, since the last time I went to that place up there in the photo (Las Vegas), it's been a little crazy. Employee turnover during the year end audit at work... Continue Reading →
Freshman football update – September 16th

Or, in the case of a teenage boy who has spent 3 years building his reputation for utter laziness & unabashed lying in regards to schoolwork - don't trust AT ALL! Two full weeks into high school and I am on the lookout for *those* signs. I get his teacher list & search the website... Continue Reading →
Scoreboard baby!
That title & image are what are known as teases - because no, I really don't want to talk some smack. Odd, huh? I've been a big fan of Jim Rome for well over 15 years now. I love listening to smack talk between fans. It can be oh so creative & funny. Yet, I... Continue Reading →
