Great Music: Flogging Molly “The Power’s Out”

Leave it to a punk rock band fronted by a Irishmen to capture urban Midwestern decay so perfectly. Great track from Flogging Molly's latest release, Speed of Darkness.

NY Gays Can Marry, Hef Had Already Married (But Not in NY). Great, Can We Get Back To Business Here?!

Seriously, enough funny business.

I was waiting for the most opportune moment to come back on the BTeam, which is not dissimilar than Adam Dunn's waiting for the most opportune moment to start earning a paycheck. YAA! GOT HEEEEEMMMM! (ehem, Allow Brian Wilson to explain for me. ... It\'s gonna be a thing)

My Best Day

My bride and I giggling after I accidentally tried to marry the priest

One year ago to this day, I found myself kneeling before God praying that I wouldn’t pass out in front everyone I’ve ever known and the most beautiful girl in the world. I had made the unfortunate mistake of ordering a five-cheese omelette that morning at breakfast. The quintet of cheese was making monstrous noises in my stomach and the holy altar at St. Paul of the Cross was strangely hotter than hell...

An Open Letter to NY State Senator Greg Ball

Normally we don't get political here at BTeamBombers, but this one feels kind of important and it represents yet another shift in how social media and the web as whole can effect the democratic process.  As the debate over gay marriage rages on in the state of New York, state senator Greg Ball (R - Dist. 40) has taken to twitter to ask the public how we think he should vote.  Ball is a young moderate who recently stated that he cannot vote in favor of a bill that doesn't include language for "religious protections".  Ball seems to be giving the issue careful consideration however, which is a welcome break from the knee jerk responses often found on both sides of this issue.  The senator wants to here from the people.  If you'd like to be part of the discussion, you can respond to his tweet "Opening up the discussion! So, if you were me, how would you vote on gay marriage? Yes or No?" @ball4ny, email him at  gball@nysenate.gov or call his office at (518) 455-3111.  My response is below.

Remembering The Big Man

Rock and Roll lost a legend this weekend with the passing of saxophone demigod (DO I HAVE TO SAY HIS NAME? DO I HAVE TO SAY HIS NAAAAAAAME???) Clarence Clemons. For more than three decades, The Big Man who towered over the audience standing 6’5”, absolutely dwarfing his powerful tenor sax, served as the rhythmic and spiritual backbone of Bruce Springsteen’s legendary E. Street Band. Clemons died Saturday due to complications from a stroke. He was 69 years old.

That’s Enough, Cleveland

There are three guys that come to mind who deserve a break:  Obama, Michael Vick and LeBron James.  This isn't a political blog, those are for douchebags and (speaking of douchebags) Rick Reilly beat me to defending Vick.  I hate it when I find myself agreeing with Reilly.  But I digress, I'm here to defend LBJ.

Adventures in South Bend and Other Fond Memories

Jimmy and I headed to South Bend a few weeks ago for ND's final home game of the tumultuous 2010 football season.  Our weekend started off as shaky as the Irish did this year.  When the ridiculousness of the first leg of our trip culminated in locking ourselves out the apartment at which we were staying, we decided we had absorbed all of the negative karma and maybe the Domers had a chance - we had no idea how right we were.  What would follow would be just about the perfect ND Football experience.
