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!

I’ll pay you $1000 to shove the airhorn up Coach’s arse.
If there’s a sports story that’s more simultaneously surprising and no surprise at all than the current “bounty” scandal that’s enveloping the New Orleans Saints, I haven’t seen it. Apparently former defensive coordinator Gregg Williams offered players financial incentives to … Continue reading
On Whitney and the Anthem
In comments to the previous post on Whitney Houston, Kerry asks why I didn’t post the video of Houston’s now-iconic performance of The Star-Spangled Banner at Super Bowl XXV. It’s a fair question, worthy of a couple of answers. First of … Continue reading
The Newest Dolphin
So, apparently former Bills quarterback JP Losman has signed with the quarterback-desperate Miami Dolphins. I have a hard time deciding what to feel about this. Buffalo Bills fans are supposed to hate the Dolphins, even if the rivalry isn’t nearly what … Continue reading
And at center, number sixty-seven, Kent Hull
Kent Hull, who played center for the Buffalo Bills from 1986 to 1996, died yesterday. He was only 50 years old. The first indications of a cause of death that I saw cited a heart attack, the coroner’s report blames … Continue reading
Look, Mommy! Mommy, look! I’m doin’ it by myself! Look, Mommy!!
The greatest force for evil in the sporting world, New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady, has apparently just discovered water slides. God help me…there’s just something a little bit endearing about this. There really, truly is. Of course, whatever it … Continue reading

“Poor drafting, front office. The penalty will be assessed for the next ten years.”
It’s football time, woo-hoo! From Byzantium's Shores: chronicling the misadventures of an overalls-clad hippie Yup, the NFL season “begins” today. That’s in quotes because last Thursday night, the Saints and Vikings played the first official game of the season. But … Continue reading
Ixnay’s Irstfay Aftdray
So this weekend saw the Buffalo Bills run their first Draft of the Buddy Nix era. Buddy Nix is the new GM that the Bills hired earlier in the offseason after an extensive search (a day or two) in which … Continue reading
Winning the toss
I see that the NFL has voted to change its overtime rules for playoff games. Why they decided to do this for the playoffs only is beyond me, but it’s a step in the right direction. Basically, if the team … Continue reading
Super Thoughts!
Well, the thoughts probably aren’t all that super, but the game was called Super, even if it wasn’t all that super. Or something. Random thoughts on the Super Bowl: :: I was rooting for the Colts, but not really rooting … Continue reading
