Welcome to my outpost on the Web! I write SF, fantasy, and horror for fun and, hopefully, profit! Other interests include music, nature, science, humor, food, bib overalls, and pie throwing (both metaphorically AND literally). Stick around!

On fandom, personal attachments, and the Buffalo Bills
Unless you live in a cave–and a particularly deep, nasty cave with trolls and snakes and giant spiders and whatnot–you probably have heard that in 2020, the Buffalo Bills finally returned to the ranks of the Indisputably Good Teams, … Continue reading
A Farewell to Football
It’s been fun, football, but I can’t do it anymore. I’ve been sensing this moment coming, with every single death of a former player. My enthusiasm started to wane with the suicide of Junior Seau…or maybe it was Mike Webster’s … Continue reading
Predicting the NFL Season (Badly)
I tweeted a bunch of NFL predictions this morning, and here they are! Most of them will be wrong. Some will be spectacularly wrong. I apologize for nothing. 1. Bills will go 10-6. Maybe, maybe not for playoffs. Depends on … Continue reading

So, Rex Ryan is apparently the new head coach of the Buffalo Bills. Not my first choice, really; but then, I didn’t really have a first choice. I don’t hate the hire, but I’ve never been a big fan of Ryan’s. … Continue reading

Just a grab-bag of some thoughts on stuff going on…. :: I posted the following on a Facebook exchange debating the ALS Ice Bucket Challenge. This wasn’t really in response to anything anyone specifically said, but more in response to … Continue reading

On Mr. Wilson
Ralph Wilson, owner of the Buffalo Bills, died yesterday at the age of 95. He was the only owner the team ever had, and, like seemingly everything else around these parts, Buffalo’s relationship with him was…complicated. Wilson brought football to … Continue reading
Super Thoughts
Wow, what an awful game. We haven’t seen an out-and-out blowout in a number of years, have we? Remember what it felt like, back when the Super Bowl was an annual ass-kicking? This was quite the throwback — it was … Continue reading
