About George »

CT resident, happily married with four holy terrors!

Featured writer for UConn football

Brought up on the blue and white of UConn athletics, since Corny Thompson and Chuck Alexinis took the floor at the old Field House in Storrs.

Loyal follower since Mark Fidrych toed the rubber sporting the olde English D, Billy Sims juking defenders out of their cleats and Isiah and the Bad Boys took it to the Celts.

Have also enjoyed boxing and wrestling since the late '70's.

George,

Pick your pleasure. You can either check out my recap of the fabulous Dolphins win over the Panthers last night, or my preview of the upcoming contest between the Heat and the Raptors; or you could check them both out.

If you have the time to check either of them out, let me know what you think…lol

JW Nix made a great argument for the suspension of Brady Quinn. However, after I examined it, I felt that Brady Quinn needed a defense attorney.

Ah man, Nana is a trip and a half. I'm sure he'll come back on down the line. He enjoys coming on as much as we enjoy him being there.

I've never looked at your profile pic close enough before, LOL.

The Lions face a huge foe on Sunday against the world champion, Pittsburgh Steelers. A win isn't likely, but is possible. Here's how the offense can help.

The SEC refs may have stolen the game from Georgia.

Attention all participants in the HiaC prediction competition!

The match of R-Truth vs Drew McIntyre has been added to the card. This will be worth 1 point, so if you could leave your prediction to this match as a reply to your original guesses, this would be much obliged!

You don't have to predict this match, but 1 point could be the difference between winning and losing!
