This is a fascinating time of year for me. Not that there aren’t a lot of those times of year, but I especially love the fall season. College football is always compelling in November because of the BCS circus. I’m actually still competitive in all of my fantasy football leagues, which is a welcome change […]

Harding All-American QB David Knighton suspended
I normally don’t post about Harding football here. There’s typically not much reason to. The atmosphere at football games was not what it was for basketball when I was there, and I had trouble getting into it. The team also isn’t very good this year: their record is just 2-8 (1-6 GSC) because of a […]
A helpful reminder
I had a great experience in school, from the very earliest days in elementary school all the way through college. My high school made me study like I was already in college, and I was better off academically for it. Since McCallie is a private school, they rely on alumni giving as a source of […]
Weekly Notes: March 7, 2008
Finally, it’s Friday, and I don’t have a game recap to write. Some notes for the past couple of weeks: Yesterday was a light day in D-II South men’s basketball, with the only game of note being Benedict’s double-OT win in the SIAC quarterfinals. The rest of the region has to be rooting Benedict on, […]
Friday Notes: August 31, 2007
Some notes to get you through the first weekend of football season: Tennessee plays at Cal tomorrow night at 8 PM on ABC. Erik Ainge will be playing with a broken finger, and I’ll be watching, hoping that the Vols can get off to a good start. I think Tennessee will run the ball very […]
Friday Notes: July 13, 2007
It’s a scary day around here. This is what’s going on: As I’ve mentioned probably too many times, I’m going to the Braves game tonight against the Pirates. It looks like a great pitching matchup, with Hudson facing Ian Snell, who has been outstanding this year for the Bucs. I’ll be closely monitoring Willie Harris […]
Friday Notes
Today, I want to cover a couple of little tidbits that are on my brain, but that I haven’t considered worthy of an entire post. The Office Season Finale, plus Lost OR Idol? Last night’s season finale of The Office was a doozy, as expected. I won’t spoil it for anyone who hasn’t seen it […]
Another Bison coming out for Obama
Joining a Facebook group isn’t exactly the type of decision you spend hours agonizing about, unless you’re crazy and/or me. In my defense, though, it’s not the idea of joining the Facebook group that’s causing me mental anguish. Rather, it’s my own internal argument about whether or not I support Barack Obama in the 2008 […]
Rules of Engagement
Yesterday I posted about mock trial, one of the activities that dominated my four years in high school. Today, I’ll post about an activity that dominated my four years in college. This won’t be out of the ordinary for my blog, though: it’s about Harding basketball. For several years, I was a self-proclaimed Rhodes Rowdie […]
My own Wikiality
Recently, I’ve been a little more active with Wikipedia, which if you’re not aware, is one of the internet’s best resources. A lot of academics like to make themselves feel better by scoffing at the encyclopedia that anyone can edit, but Wikipedia works remarkably well for what it is, and its use is continually on […]
