Big Memorial Day weekend Friday planned, I am sure many of you are planning your early escape as we speak. I always treat it just like trying to sneak into a lower section at a game, just walk with purpose...
Blog: Prodigal Son: May 2010 Archives
High-5 1. Reds. Great night for the team on the field and better night for the fans in the stands. Bark in the Park is just a fun night to be at GABP. Between all the dog-themed songs, barks, parades and shots...
High-5 1. NY/NJ Super Bowl. The official ruling came down yesterday. Ian O'Connor points out the man the trophy is named after would have loved it. Dan Wetzel has a nice take on it. At the Bengals open locker room yesterday I...
With CTR shifting to the role of roadie this week, I happily assume the role of primary linkage operator here at CNati. Only, instead of Reds links, you'll find every other major sport in the city. Instead of indie music...
I guess I will start with an apology. Due to moving all my belongings across town and lack of interwebbings at my new house (and a few other unforeseen adventures I won't bore you with) the H5L5 seceded to real...
Due to a day game after a night game, many Reds will get the day off today. I could have joined the crowd, but instead, I will give you this truncated version of the H5L5. See, I've already done more...
I want to wish the best of luck to all the people headed to Jimmy Buffett tonight at Riverbend. Good luck and be safe. I understand the allure, but never really had a desire to go to a Buffett concert....
Happy Friday. I hope your weekend will be better than everyones in Cleveland. Of course, I can almost guarantee it won't be drunker. Lot of good stuff in the Low-5 today. I love the smell of negativity in the morning....
I would be remiss if I didn't begin the blog today with a shout out of congratulations to my good friend Mike Pugh and his wife Deidre on their second child and first boy born yesterday. Here's hoping Jacob Michael...
Just finished the debut of my four-part college basketball series coming over the course of the rest of this month. These will publish every Thursday morning and I think will be a great way to take a look at some...
The Xavier Musketeers has eight athletics teams honored on Wednesday by the NCAA for academic excellence. Men's basketball was among those given recognition and included men's tennis, women's golf, women's swimming, women's tennis, women's indoor track and women's outdoor track....
The Bearcats home opener against Indiana State on Sept. 11 will be played at noon and will be broadcast on Fox Sports Ohio. Outside of a spike in bloody mary mix sales, doesn't mean a lot for a game that shouldn't be...
High-5 1. Butch Jones. He keeps some momentum going with another addition to this year's signing class, according to Bearcat Lair. The site reports Jones got a verbal agreement from Ty Phillips, a defensive lineman out of East St. Louis....
There are weekends that take a day or two to recover from and then there is a bachelor party in New Orleans. I have spent quite a few weekends in the Crescent City and this was among the best. I would...
An afternoon delight edition of the H5L5 because of some college basketball projects I am working on for the next few weeks or so I think all my hoops folks on here will really enjoy. Plenty of stuff on the...
Zach Mettenberger, former University of Georgia quarterback dismissed from the team, who pled guilty to two misdemeanor counts of sexual battery earlier this week, has been offered a scholarship from the University of Cincinnati. This according to the the web...
Looking forward to spending the day wrapping up a story I think all of you will like that is going to run later this week. I will keep you all in suspense, except to give you the hint that it...
High-5 1. UC free agents. The Bearcats had a load of players at the Bengals rookie mini-camp this weekend. Scott Springer pretty much tells them to pocket some souvenirs while they are allowed in. And, indeed, that may be the only way...
